A new approach to obtain pure and active proteins from Lactococcus lactis protein aggregates
(Scientific Reports, 2018-09-17)The production of pure and soluble proteins is a complex, protein-dependent and time-consuming process, in particular for those prone-to-aggregate and/or difcult-to-purify. Although Escherichia coli ... -
A New Biosynthetic 6-Phytase Added at 500 Phytase Unit/kg Diet Improves Growth Performance, Bone Mineralization, and Nutrient Digestibility and Retention in Weaned Piglets and Growing–Finishing Pigs
(Veterinary Sciences, 2024-06-03)Two experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of a biosynthetic 6-phytase added at 500 phytase unit (FTU)/kg diet on growth performance, bone mineralization, and nutrient digestibility and ... -
A new expanded modelling approach for investigating the bioprotective capacity of Latilactobacillus sakei CTC494 against Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat fish products
(Food Research International, 2021-06-18)Understanding the role of food-related factors on the efficacy of protective cultures is essential to attain optimal results for developing biopreservation-based strategies. The aim of this work was to ... -
A new generation of recombinant polypeptides combines multiple protein domains for effective antimicrobial activity
(Microbial Cell Factories, 2020-06-05)Background Although most of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), being relatively short, are produced by chemical synthesis, several AMPs have been produced using recombinant technology. However, AMPs could ... -
A Novel Bacterial 6-Phytase Improves Growth Performance, Tibia Mineralization and Precaecal Digestibility of Phosphorus in Broilers: Data from Four Independent Performance Trials
(Agriculture, 2023-07-27)A series of four broiler performance studies were conducted in different facilities to investigate the efficacy of a novel bacterial 6-phytase added at 500 FTU/kg diet on growth performance, bone ... -
A Novel Bacterial 6-Phytase Improves Productive Performance, Precaecal Digestibility of Phosphorus, and Bone Mineralization in Laying Hens Fed a Corn-Soybean Meal Diet Low in Calcium and Available Phosphorus
(Journal of Poultry Science, 2023-08-05)Exogenous phytases are commonly added to low-phosphorus and low-calcium diets to improve P availability and reduce P excretion by poultry. This study investigated the effect of supplementation with a ... -
