Introduction Bacteroides vulgatus is one of the predominant Bacteroides species in the
human gut and exerts a series of beneficial effects. The aim of this study was to investigate …

Propionate is a microbial metabolite formed in the gastrointestinal tract, and it affects host
physiology as a source of energy and signaling molecule. Despite the importance of …

Efficient anaerobic digestion requires the syntrophic cooperation among diverse
microorganisms with various metabolic pathways. In this study, two operational modes, ie …

Background Dilute ethanol streams generated during fermentation of biomass or syngas can
be used as feedstocks for the production of higher value products. In this study, we describe …

Abstract Syngas (H 2, CO 2, CO) produced thermochemically from lignocellulosic biomass is
an underexploited source for resource recovery and valorisation through its biological …

One-carbon (C1) compounds are promising feedstocks for the sustainable production of
commodity chemicals. CO2 is a particularly advantageous C1-feedstock since it is an …

Propionate is an important platform chemical that is available through petrochemical
synthesis. Bacterial propionate formation is considered an alternative, as bacteria can …

Background Hydraulically fractured shales offer a window into the deep biosphere, where
hydraulic fracturing creates new microbial ecosystems kilometers beneath the surface of the …

Propionate is a microbial metabolite that is formed in the gastrointestinal tract, and it affects
host physiology as a source of energy and signaling molecule. Despite the importance of …

Microbial fermentation of synthesis gas (syngas) is becoming more attractive for sustainable
production of commodity chemicals. To date, syngas fermentation focuses mainly on the use …
