The exposure of microorganisms to conventional plastics is a relatively recent occurrence, affording limited time for evolutionary adaptation. As part the EU-funded project BioICEP, this study delves into plastic degradation potential isolated from sites with prolonged pollution, such as plastic-polluted forests, biopolymer-contaminated soil, oil-contaminated municipal landfill, but also distinctive soil sample pieces buried three decades ago. Additionally, samples Arthropoda species were investigated. In total, 150 strains and screened ability use plastic-related substrates (Impranil dispersions, polyethylene terephthalate, terephthalic acid, bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate). Twenty isolates selected based on their grow various identified Streptomyces, Bacillus, Enterococcus, Pseudomonas spp. Morphological features recorded, 16S rRNA sequence was employed construct phylogenetic tree. Subsequent assessments unveiled that 5 out 20 displayed capability produce polyhydroxyalkanoates, utilizing pre-treated post-consumer PET samples. With Priestia sp. DG69 Neobacillus DG40 emerging most successful producers (4.14% 3.34% PHA, respectively), these are poised further utilization in upcycling purposes, laying foundation development sustainable strategies waste management.

Abstract Gastrointestinal infection is a leading cause of gut diseases attracting global health concerns. The emerging antimicrobial resistance in enteric pathogens drives the search viable and renewable alternatives to antibiotics for both human beings animals. Spore-forming probiotic Bacillus have received extensively interests their multiple benefits, including restoration microbiota dysbiosis reduction drug-resistant pathogens. These promising benefits are mainly attributed activity structurally diverse -derived metabolites, such as antibacterial compounds, short-chain fatty acids, other small molecules. Such metabolites show capacity directly target either individual or community bacterial pathogens, potentiate host cells microbiota. better understanding mechanisms by which modulate metabolism hosts will advance screening development . In this review, we discuss interaction among , host, summarize Bacillus- derived that act key players interactions, shedding light on mechanistic against infections.

In the present study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were biosynthesized using supernatant and intracellular extract of Cupriavidus necator, Bacillus megaterium, subtilis. The characterization AgNPs was carried out UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, DLS TEM. Resazurin microtiter-plate assay used to determine antimicrobial action against Escherichia coli. UV-Visible spectra showed peaks between 414 460 nm. TEM analysis revealed that synthesized mostly spherical shapes. results determined sizes from 20.8 118.4 highest activity obtained with rather than those extract. Therefore, it bacterial species, temperature, pH, type (supernatant or intracellular) influence biosynthesis. This synthesis thus offers a simple, environmentally friendly, low-cost method for production AgNPs, which can be as antibacterial agents.
