In this paper, the taxonomy of the genus Arthrobacter is discussed, from its first description in
1947 to the present state. Emphasis is given to intrageneric phylogeny and chemotaxonomic …

Glycolipids, consisting of a carbohydrate moiety linked to fatty acids, are microbial surface
active compounds produced by various microorganisms. They are characterized by highly …

Globally the change towards the establishment of a bio-based economy has resulted in an
increased need for bio-based applications. This, in turn, has served as a driving force for the …

This review is the sixth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of
MALDI mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings …

Different compounds with bioactive constituents can be applied as biostimulants to increase
plant growth and development under both normal and stressful conditions. Biostimulant …

The application of biostimulants has been proven to be an advantageous tool and an
appropriate form of management towards the effective use of natural resources, food …

Surfactants are surface active agents that reduce the surface tension between immiscible
phases. They are amphiphilic molecules which can be produced by chemical and biological …

A pink-coloured bacterium (strain KR32T) was isolated from cheese and assigned to the
'Arthrobacter agilis group'. Members of the 'pink Arthrobacter agilis group'form a stable clade …

Biosurfactants are substances that are produced by microbes, such as yeast, bacteria, and
fungi. Compared to chemical surfactants, biosurfactants offer numerous advantages, such as …

Some synthetic and bacterial glycolipids presented by CD1d specifically activate invariant
NKT (iNKT) cells bearing an invariant Vα14-Jα18 (mouse) or Vα24-Jα18 (human) TCR. The …
