Summary: Agro-byproducts can be effectively utilized as low-cost nutrient sources for producing various products through microbial fermentation. Wheat bran powder was identified as the most effective carbon source for xylanase production, with the optimal culture conditions resulting in a 6.9-fold increase in enzyme activity compared to un-optimized conditions. Streptomyces thermocarboxydus TKU045 showed potential for producing xylanases from wheat bran and for adsorbing dyes.

Summary: In this study, a highly efficient natural PHE-degrading microbial consortium HJ-SH was isolated from soil contaminated with PHE. The consortium showed a degradation efficiency higher than any other natural or engineered strains reported so far. Seven dominant strains were identified from the consortium, and one strain, SH-4, showed the strongest PHE degradation ability. The consortium exhibited high tolerance for PHE and was capable of degrading other organic pollutants as well. An artificial consortium HJ-7 was constructed, which outperformed the natural consortium HJ-SH in terms of reproducibility, application stability, and modification potential.

Summary: This study evaluated the potential of various strains of Bacillus in degrading wheat bran, showing that a combination of 2-3 Bacillus species had positive effects on cellulose bioconversion. Specifically, the mixture of B. subtilis B.01162 and B. coagulans B.01123 significantly increased cellulase, endo-glucanase, and xylanase enzyme activity, accelerating lignocellulose degradation. The results provide a strong foundation for the development of microbial consortium for biological pretreatment of lignocellulosic raw materials.

Summary: Two morphologies of laccase-mineral hybrid complexes, La-HNF and La-HNP, were synthesized using Cu3(PO4)2.3H2O for biodegradation of Evans Blue dye. The successful immobilization of laccase and higher enzymatic activity in hybrid complexes were attributed to in-situ formed Cu3(PO4)2.3H2O crystals. La-HNF showed improved biodegradation efficiency and practicality due to the synergistic effect of immobilized laccase within its 3D hierarchical structure.

Summary: Researchers have enriched a microbial consortium called L1 from soil contaminated with the herbicide chlorimuron-ethyl (CE) using a top-down synthetic biology strategy. The consortium was able to degrade 98.04% of 100 mg L-1 CE within 6 days. Through metagenome and 16S rDNA sequencing, the researchers identified the dominant genera in consortium L1 and predicted the degradation pathway of CE. They also found close interactions and co-metabolic relationships between strains in the consortium. This study provides important insights for isolating degrading bacterial resources and constructing artificial efficient bacterial consortia, as well as a new route for pollution control and biodegradation of sulfonylurea herbicides.
