In the present study, a cost-effective, robust Microbioreactor based production optimization of levan like exopolysaccharide from marine Bacillus sp. SGD-03 was analysed. FE-SEM analysis has showed the significant fibrillar structure of EPS. Size exclusion chromatography and other analytical data revealed that, produced EPS has a molecular weight of 1.0 × 10 Da and is composed of fructose monosaccharide with hydroxyl, carbonyl, and ether groups. The backbone structure of EPS has a branching pattern of β-(2,6) linkages which confirms the similarity with available levan like polymers. The cost-effective media composition for levan production was demonstrated. The maximum yield of crude levan obtained was 123.9 g/L by response surface methodology using robust BioLector Pro Microbioreactor, and same has been validated with shake flask, 1 L and 10 L pilot-scale fermentation.

Biofilm formation and other virulence phenotypes under quorum sensing regulation play a vital role in the pathogenicity of Aeromonas hydrophila, triggering the emergence of multi-drug resistance (MDR) which increases fish mortality, environmental issues, and economic loss in aquaculture, necessitating the discovery of novel drugs to bypass standard antibiotics. Here, quorum quenching (QQ) may be a sustainable anti-virulent approach. β-Lactamase enzyme obtained from Chromohalobacter sp.

, a marine pathogen, employs biofilm formation to enhance environmental persistence and transmission. Biofilm development is intricately regulated by cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP), whose levels are controlled by diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) and phosphodiesterases (PDEs). This study elucidates the coordinated regulatory roles of the LysR-type transcriptional regulator AcsS and the PDE TpdA in biofilm formation.

Introduction: Fermented whey-based products show significant potential as functional foods, owing to their rich nutritional profile and the generation of bioactive compounds during fermentation. This systematic narrative review evaluates the health effects of fermented-whey consumption based on evidence from human studies in adults.
Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted using electronic databases including, PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library for studies published between 1.

This study aimed to evaluate the optimal nitrogen source for the production of antioxidant exopolysaccharides (EPSs) by KW8 using cassava pulp carbon source. Various nitrogen sources were initially screened, and yeast extract was identified as the most effective. Further optimization was conducted using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with a Central Composite Design (CCD) to assess the influence of key parameters, including pH, inoculum size, carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratio, and agitation speed on EPS production.

Microbial exopolysaccharides from extreme environments are increasingly becoming valuable candidates for drug development. In this study, four fractions named XL-1, XMRS-1, XL-1-D, and XMRS-1-D were isolated and purified from the hadal bacterium by column chromatography. The structural features of these fractions were characterized by molecular weight, monosaccharide composition, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum, amino acid analysis and NMR.
