Enhanced CO₂ capture for photosynthetic lycopene production in engineered Rhodopseudomonas palustris, a purple nonsulfur bacterium

Abstract

Lycopene has been widely applied in the fields of food additives, drug and cosmetics due to its anti-oxidative, anti-cancer, and anti-inflammatory activities. The traditional plants extraction of lycopene suffers from...

Biosynthesis of Copper Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Pisa Plant Leaf Extracts: Antimicrobial Activities and Catalytic Application for Xanthene Synthesis

“…The selected microbial communities’ significant zone of inhibition was noted and is depicted in Table 1. The various resistance patterns seen in bacteria are probably due to variations in the organizationof their cells, the structure of their cell walls, and how they synthesizeproteins [50–57] . Figure 7 shows the Zone of inhibition against P. aeruginosa , E. coli, B. cereus , and S. aureus .…”

“…The various resistance patterns seen in bacteria are probably due to variations in the organizationof their cells, the structure of their cell walls, and how they synthesizeproteins. [50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57] Figure 7 shows the Zone of inhibition against P. aeruginosa, E. coli, B. cereus, and S. aureus. The standard error of the Cu NPs' antibacterial activity graph is displayed in Figure 8.…”

Harnessing the power of polyol-based polyesters for biomedical innovations: synthesis, properties, and biodegradation

“…[1][2][3][4] Nowadays, integrating green chemistry principles with biomass-derived feedstocks is driving technological innovation in industrial applications, focusing on achieving both environmental sustainability and economic viability. [5][6][7][8][9] The polymer industry is increasingly shifting its attention to renewable resources in order to promote a more sustainable and eco-friendly future, leading to a rising worldwide need for bio-based polyols. [10][11][12][13] The application of polyols in industry encompasses a wide range of uses, from their role as key ingredients in the production of polymers to their utility as versatile chemical intermediates in the synthesis of various products, including lubricants, 14-17 pharmaceuticals, and personal care items.…”

Recent developments in polysaccharide and lignin-based (nano)materials for CO2 capture

“…[24][25][26][27][28][29][30] CO 2 capture can take place by absorption (chemical and/or physical) and/or by adsorption (chemisorption and/or physisorption). [31][32][33][34][35] Promising materials for CO 2 capture include amines as well as porous materials such as MOFs, 36,37 metal oxides, 38 graphene, 39 zeolites, 40 synthetic and natural polymers, etc. [41][42][43][44] Among these, natural polymers or biopolymers are very efficient materials for CO 2 capture and polysaccharides have attracted much attention.…”
