متن کاملHarnessing microbiome‐based biotechnologies for sustainable mitigation of nitrous oxide emissions
Achieving the Sustainable Development Goal of climate change mitigation within this century will require adoption of new innovative technologies to control emissions of nitrous oxide (N2 O), an important greenhouse gas leading to global warming. This is particularly important in the face of growing fertilizer consumption and continuous land degradation. Currently used tools to mitigate N2 O emi...
متن کاملEffects of Cream Containing Rhamnolipid Microbial Surfactants from Pseudomonas aeruginosa MR01 on Growth Inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus
Background and purpose: Dramatic increase in antibiotic-resistant bacteria highlights the need for new compounds with more effective antibacterial properties and biotechnology could be useful in producing these metabolites. The present study aimed at investigating the effects of rhamnolipid microbial surfactants in a cream-based formulation on growth inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus using in...
متن کاملIntegrating microbial ecology into ecosystem models: challenges and priorities
Microbial communities can potentially mediate feedbacks between global change and ecosystem function, owing to their sensitivity to environmental change and their control over critical biogeochemical processes. Numerous ecosystem models have been developed to predict global change effects, but most do not consider microbial mechanisms in detail. In this idea paper, we examine the extent to whic...
متن کاملMicrobial biotechnology and circular economy in wastewater treatment
Microbial biotechnology is essential for the development of circular economy in wastewater treatment by integrating energy production and resource recovery into the production of clean water. A comprehensive knowledge about identity, physiology, ecology, and population dynamics of process-critical microorganisms will improve process stability, reduce CO2 footprints, optimize recovery and bioene...
