Summary: Nisin, an FDA-approved food preservative, was produced from underutilized milk industry effluent, acid-whey, by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis ATCC & REG; 11454. The addition of yeast extract (6% w/v) as nitrogen source and sucrose (4% w/v) as carbon source improved the production of Nisin. The optimized whey medium (OWM) showed better production characteristics compared to MRS media, and the addition of 0.22 mg/ml Nisin promoted its own production. Copper ions were found to be the most consumed metal ions during Nisin production in OWM. The highest yield of Nisin obtained was 2.6 x 10(5) AU/mL.

Summary: In this study, the inhibitory effects of antimicrobial peptides produced by Lactococcus lactis L2 on pig pathogens were tested. The peptides showed good bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects, especially against Gram-positive bacteria, and their low molecular weight may be responsible for their antimicrobial properties. The use of probiotics in controlling pig pathogens has potential benefits.

Summary: In addition to human medicine, antimicrobials are used in food animals and aquaculture for therapeutic purposes against bacterial infections. However, their use in aquaculture can lead to environmental consequences and the spread of bacterial resistance genes. Probiotics and bacteriocins derived from lactic acid bacteria offer potential alternatives to antibiotics for controlling bacterial infections.

Summary: Novel environmentally friendly pretreatments such as solid-state fermentation and ionic liquid treatment have been shown to effectively improve biomass fractionation and enzyme production. The combination of SSF with fungi and ionic liquid pretreatment can efficiently hydrolyze brewery spent grain, resulting in increased glucan and xylan content and reduced lignin content. The BSG biorefinery process developed in this study is a promising way to obtain fermentable sugar-containing solutions for the production of value-added products.

Summary: This study compares the performance of a nanofiber device and a resin column for antibody capture. The nanofiber device has a larger housing volume and lower binding capacity, but comparable eluate purity to the resin column. It shows high stability, can be used for multiple cycles, and maintains consistent eluate quality when scaled up. The use of a single nanofiber device can significantly reduce costs compared to a resin column, especially when the number of batches is limited.

Summary: Fed-batch cell culture processes are commonly used in biomanufacturing due to their simplicity and applicability in cGMP environments. However, the challenge lies in the changing physiochemical conditions within the bioreactor as the cell density changes. Traditional response surface models (RSMs) are commonly used for optimization but are limited by their use of time-invariant factors. Dynamic RSM (DRSM) models can predict the time-dependent impact of process inputs, allowing for optimization of process operations that change over time.

Summary: Water for injection (WFI) production in the biopharmaceutical industry consumes excessive amounts of water and energy. Recycling buffers can potentially save up to 90% of resources, but achieving the full theoretical potential is impossible when a risk-aware design is used.

Summary: In this study, heterologous expression and homologous overexpression of ABC transporter proteins AatA and MdlB were found to improve butyric acid production in C. tyrobutyricum. The overexpression of these proteins upregulated the expression levels of key enzymes in the acetate synthesis pathway and promoted the synthesis and secretion of acetic acid. Additionally, the increase in ATPase activity facilitated sugar utilization, induced extracellular secretion of acetate, and shortened fermentation periods.
