Significant production of vanillin and in vitro amplification of ech gene in local bacterial isolates

Braz. j. biol; 83 (), 2023
Abstract Vanillin is the major component which is responsible for flavor and aroma of vanilla extract and is produced by 3 ways: natural extraction from vanilla plant, chemical synthesis and from microbial transformation. Current research was aimed to study bacterial production of vanillin from native na...

Optimization of glycerol-based medium composition for antifungal metabolites production by Bacillus subtilis

Abstract Bacillus species are promising producers of various compounds that have pronounced antimicrobial, antiviral and antitumor activities. Due to its GRAS status, Bacillus subtilis represents an excellent candidate for the usage in plant pathogens biocontrol. In this research, evaluation of antifunga...

Extracellular expression in Bacillus subtilis of a thermostable Geobacillus stearothermophilus lipase

BACKGROUND The extracellular expression of enzymes in a secretion host such as Bacillus subtilis is a useful strategy in reducing the cost of downstream processing of industrial enzymes. Here, we present the first report of the successful extracellular expression in Bacillus subtilis WB800 of Geobacillus...

Estudos da resposta estringente de Bacillus subtilis e busca por pequenas moléculas moduladoras de RelA

Seja no meio ambiente, dentro de um hospedeiro ou em outro habitat, bactérias estarão frequentemente enfrentando condições adversas, como exposição a compostos antibacterianos ou carência nutricional. Em situações como essas, as bactérias são capazes de ativar a chamada resposta estringente, m...

Lipopeptide production by Bacillus subtilis R1 and its possible applications

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (4), 2016
Abstract The possible application of a bacterial strain - Bacillus subtilis R1, isolated from an oil contaminated desert site in India, as biocontrol agent and its biosurfactant in microbial enhanced oil recovery are discussed. The biosurfactant production in minimal medium was carried out at different t...

Simultaneous production of amylases and proteases by Bacillus subtilis in brewery wastes

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT The simultaneous production of amylase (AA) and protease (PA) activity by Bacillus subtilis UO-01 in brewery wastes was studied by combining the response surface methodology with the kinetic study of the process. The optimum conditions (T = 36.0 °C and pH = 6.8) for high biomass production (0.9...
