Abstract
Phenolic compounds are commonly found in industrial effluents and can be hazardous to organisms even at low concentrations. Over the years, researchers have demonstrated that bioremediation is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to physicochemical approaches used to remove phenol. The aim of this study was to investigate the removal of phenol from saline wastewaters by a halotolerant strain of the genus Janibacter. For this purpose, bacterial cells were immobilized on different supports, from which mica and zeolite were ultimately chosen due to their higher removal efficiency. The wet weight of immobilized cells per 1 g of mica and zeolite was 0.51 and 0.48 g, respectively. Free cells consumed 100 mg/L of phenol in 88 h, while immobilized cells used it in 40 h. Immobilized cells revealed a higher thermostability and could operate over a wider pH range and salinity. Unlike free cells, immobilized cells could remove 700 mg/L of phenol and could be reused for at least nine cycles. Interestingly the phenol removal efficiency of zeolite-immobilized cells remained unchanged after 4 months of storage at 4 and - 20 °C, which could be of great advantage for industrial applications. Complete destruction of phenol was observed through the meta pathway comprising phenol hydroxylase and catechol 2,3-dioxygenase enzymes. KEY POINTS: • Mica- and zeolite-immobilized cells were able to consume high concentrations of phenol. • Cells immobilized on mica and zeolite had considerable operational and storage stability. • Immobilized cells could be a good candidate for phenol removal in saline environments.

Abstract
AbstractParametric optimization is an effective way in fermentation process to improve product yield and productivity in order to save time, space and financial resources. In this study, Box–Behnken design was applied to optimize the conditions for lactic acid production by immobilized Lactobacillus pentosus ATCC 8041 cell fermentation. Two quadratic models and response surface methodology were performed to illustrate the effect of each parameters and their interactions on the lactic acid yield and glucose consumption rate in immobilized L. pentosus ATCC 8041 cell fermentation. The maximum lactic acid yield was obtained as 0.938 ± 0.003 g/g glucose with a productivity of 2.213 ± 0.008 g/(L × h) under the optimized conditions of 2.0 mm bead diameter, 5.60 pH, 115.3 g/L initial glucose concentration, and 398.2 mg biomass (CDW) in 100 mL hydrogel. The analysis of variance indicated that the quadratic model was significant and could be used to scale up the fermentation process.

Abstract
Industrial biotechnology is a continuously expanding field focused on the application of microorganisms to produce chemicals using renewable sources as substrates. Currently, an increasing interest in new versatile processes, able to utilize a variety of substrates to obtain diverse products, can be observed. A robust microbial strain is critical in the creation of such processes. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are used to produce a wide variety of chemicals with high commercial interest. Lactic acid (LA) is the most predominant industrial product obtained from LAB fermentations, and its production is forecasted to rise as the result of the increasing demand of polylactic acid. Hence, the creation of new ways to revalorize LA production processes is of high interest and could further enhance its economic value. Therefore, this review explores some co-products of LA fermentations, derived from LAB, with special focus on bacteriocins, lipoteichoic acid, and probiotics. Finally, a multi-product process involving LA and the other compounds of interest is proposed.

Abstract
Immobilization of Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC7469 in poly(vinyl alcohol)/calcium alginate (PVA/Ca-alginate) matrix using "freezing-thawing" technique for application in lactic acid (LA) fermentation was studied in this paper. PVA/Ca-alginate beads were made from sterile and non-sterile PVA and sodium alginate solutions. According to mechanical properties, the PVA/Ca-alginate beads expressed a strong elastic character. Obtained PVA/Ca-alginate beads were further applied in batch and repeated batch LA fermentations. Regarding cell viability, L. rhamnosus cells survived well rather sharp immobilization procedure and significant cell proliferation was observed in further fermentation studies achieving high cell viability (up to 10.7 log CFU g-1) in sterile beads. In batch LA fermentation, the immobilized biocatalyst was superior to free cell fermentation system (by 37.1%), while the highest LA yield and volumetric productivity of 97.6% and 0.8 g L-1 h-1, respectively, were attained in repeated batch fermentation. During seven consecutive batch fermentations, the biocatalyst showed high mechanical and operational stability reaching an overall productivity of 0.78 g L-1 h-1. This study suggested that the "freezing-thawing" technique can be successfully used for immobilization of L. rhamnosus in PVA/Ca-alginate matrix without loss of either viability or LA fermentation capability.

Abstract
This research aimed to improve the stability of Chlorella-Alginate Beads (CABs) by zeolite molecular sieves 13X. Dissolution time of synthesized Zeolite-Algal-Alginate Beads (ZABs) in a chelating agent revealed a significant improvement on the beads stability (78.5 ± 0.5 min) compared to the control beads (51.5 ± 0.5 min) under the optimum conditions of zeolite/alginate (1.5:1), pH 5 and 2% of beads. Monitoring cell growth during 5 days of incubation showed good biocompatibility of zeolite 13X. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicated rough surface and spherical shapes of ZABs. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) of ZABs confirmed the presence of zeolite 13X within the matrix. The zeta potential value of ZABs indicated that the beads were relatively stable. The findings of this research showed that zeolite molecular sieves 13X have the potential to improve the stability of algal-alginate beads compared to common beads.

Abstract
Application of agro-industrial by-products for the production of lactic acid was studied in this paper. Brewer's spent grain (BSG), malt rootlets (MR), brewer's yeast (BY), and soy lecithin (SL) were used as raw materials in L-(+)-LA fermentation by free and immobilized Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC 7469. The BSG, solid remains after BSG and MR hydrolysis (BSGMRSR), and MR were evaluated as carriers for batch and repeated batch fermentations with immobilized cells. During batch fermentations with immobilized cells, high cell viability (10 to 11 log CFU/g) was achieved on all carriers. In batch fermentation with BSG as a carrier, the highest LA yield of 93.79% and volumetric productivity of 1.15 g/L/h were obtained. Furthermore, very high LA yield (95.46%), volumetric productivity (1.98 g/L/h) and L. rhamnosus viability (11.5 log CFU/g) were achieved in repeated batch fermentations with the cells immobilized on this carrier. The immobilized cells showed high survival rate (94-95%) during exposure to simulated gut condition. Based on the analysis of BSGMRSR, and BY solid remains, and on in vitro evaluation of the probiotic characteristics of immobilized cells, it was observed that they could satisfy the recommendations for high-quality feed preparation.

Potential of Zeolite and Algae in Biomass Immobilization. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:6563196.

Abstract
The interest in utilizing algae for wastewater treatment has been increased due to many advantages. Algae-wastewater treatment system offers a cost-efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional treatment processes such as electrocoagulation and flocculation. In this biosystem, algae can assimilate nutrients in the wastewater for their growth and simultaneously capture the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis resulting in a decrease in the greenhouse gaseousness. Furthermore, the algal biomass obtained from the treatment process could be further converted to produce high value-added products. However, the recovery of free suspended algae from the treated effluent is one of the most important challenges during the treatment process as the current methods such as centrifugation and filtration are faced with the high cost. Immobilization of algae is a suitable approach to overcome the harvesting issue. However, there are some drawbacks with the common immobilization carriers such as alginate and polyacrylamide related to low stability and toxicity, respectively. Hence, it is necessary to apply a new carrier without the mentioned problems. One of the carriers that can be a suitable candidate for the immobilization is zeolite. To date, various types of zeolite have been used for the immobilization of cells of bacteria and yeast. If there is any possibility to apply them for the immobilization of algae, it needs to be considered in further studies. This article reviews cell immobilization technique, biomass immobilization onto zeolites, and algal immobilization with their applications. Furthermore, the potential application of zeolite as an ideal carrier for algal immobilization has been discussed.

Abstract
Mechanisms for high L-lactic acid production remain unclear in many bacteria. Lactobacillus rhamnosus SCT-10-10-60 was previously obtained from L. rhamnosus ATCC 11443 via mutagenesis and showed improved L-lactic acid production. In this study, the genomes of strains SCT-10-10-60 and ATCC 11443 were sequenced. Both genomes are a circular chromosome, 2.99 Mb in length with a GC content of approximately 46.8%. Eight split genes were identified in strain SCT-10-10-60, including two LytR family transcriptional regulators, two Rex redox-sensing transcriptional repressors, and four ABC transporters. In total, 60 significantly up-regulated genes (log2fold-change ≥ 2) and 39 significantly down-regulated genes (log2fold-change ≤ - 2) were identified by a transcriptome comparison between strains SCT-10-10-60 and ATCC 11443. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that "pyruvate metabolism" was significantly different (P < 0.05) between the two strains. The split genes and the differentially expressed genes involved in the "pyruvate metabolism" pathway are probably responsible for the increased L-lactic acid production by SCT-10-10-60. The genome and transcriptome sequencing information and comparison of SCT-10-10-60 with ATCC 11443 provide insights into the anabolism of L-lactic acid and a reference for improving L-lactic acid production using genetic engineering.
