Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) production is of great industrial interest due to its essential properties. This study aimed to use machine learning (ML) methods to model GSHproduction under different growth conditions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, namely cultivation time, culture volume, pressure, and magnetic field application. Different ML and regression models were evaluated for their statistics to select the most robust model. Results showed that eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGB) was the best predictive performance model. From the best model, additive explanation techniques were used to identify the feature importance of process. According to variable analysis, the best conditions to obtain the highest GSH concentrations would be cultivation times of 72-96 h, low magnetic field intensity (3.02 mT), low pressure (0.5 kgf.cm-2), and high culture volume (3.5 L). XGB use and additive explanation techniques proved promising for determining process optimization conditions and selecting the essential process variables.

Abstract
An electromagnetic field (EMF) has been shown to have various stimulatory or inhibitory effects on microorganisms. Over the years, growing interest in this topic led to numerous discoveries suggesting the potential applicability of EMF in biotechnological processes. Among these observations are stimulative effects of this physical influence resulting in intensified biomass production, modification of metabolic activity, or pigments secretion. In this review, we present the current state of the art and underline the main findings of the application of EMF in bioprocessing and their practical meaning in process engineering using examples selected from studies on bacteria, archaea, microscopic fungi and yeasts, viruses, and microalgae. All biological data are presented concerning the classification of EMF. Furthermore, we aimed to highlight missing parts of contemporary knowledge and indicate weak spots in the approaches found in the literature.

Abstract
Glutathione (L-γ-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine, GSH) is a tripeptide synthesized through consecutive enzymatic reactions. Among its several metabolic functions in cells, the main one is the potential to act as an endogenous antioxidant agent. GSH has been the focus of numerous studies not only due to its role in the redox status of biological systems but also due to its biotechnological characteristics. GSH is usually obtained by fermentation and shows a variety of applications by the pharmaceutical and food industry. Therefore, the search for new strategies to improve the production of GSH during fermentation is crucial. This mini review brings together recent papers regarding the principal parameters of the biotechnological production of GSH by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this context, aspects, such as the medium composition (amino acids, alternative raw materials) and the use of technological approaches (control of osmotic and pressure conditions, magnetic field (MF) application, fed-batch process) were considered, along with genetic engineering knowledge, trends, and challenges in viable GSH production. KEY POINTS: • Saccharomyces cerevisiae has shown potential for glutathione production. • Improved technological approaches increases glutathione production. • Genetic engineering in Saccharomyces cerevisiae improves glutathione production.

Abstract
PURPOSE The effect of extremely low frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) on bacteria has attracted attention due to its potential for beneficial uses. This research aimed to determine the effect of ELF-EMF on bacterial membrane namely the membrane potential, surface potential, hydrophobicity, respiratory activity and growth. MATERIALS AND METHODS Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli were subjected to ELF-EMF, 50 Hz, 1 mT for 2 h. Membrane potential was determined by fluorescence spectroscopy with or without EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) with DisC3(5) (3,3-dipropylthiacarbocyanine iodide), zeta potential measurements were performed by electrophoretic mobility, hydrophobicity of the membrane was measured with MATH (Microbial Adhesion to Hydrocarbons) test, respiratory activity was determined with CTC (5-Cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium chloride), colony forming unit (CFU) and DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole, dihydrochloride) was used for growth determinations. RESULTS ELF-EMF caused changes in physicochemical properties of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Hyperpolarization was seen in S. aureus and EDTA-treated E. coli. Surface potential showed a positive shift in S. aureus contrariwise to the negative shift seen in EDTA-untreated E. coli. Respiratory activity increased in both bacteria. A slight decrease in growth was observed. CONCLUSION These results show that ELF-EMF affects the crucial physicochemical processes in both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria which need further research.

Abstract
Generator of spatial magnetic field is one of most recent achievements among the magnetostimulators. This apparatus allows to obtain the rotating magnetic field. This new method may be more effective than other widely used techniques of magnetostimulation and magnetotherapy. We investigated the influence of alternating, spatial magnetic field on the regeneration of the crushed rat sciatic nerves. Functional and morphological evaluations were used. After crush injury of the right sciatic nerve, Wistar C rats (n = 80) were randomly divided into four groups (control and three experimental). The experimental groups (A, B, C) were exposed (20 min/day, 5 d/week, 4 weeks) to alternating spatial magnetic field of three different intensities. Sciatic Functional Index (SFI) and tensometric assessments were performed every week after nerve crush. Forty-eight hours before the sacrificing of animals, DiI (1,1'-di-octadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethyloindocarbocyanine perchlorate) was applied 5 mm distally to the crush site. Collected nerves and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) were subjected to histological and immunohistochemical staining. The survival rate of DRG neurons was estimated. Regrowth and myelination of the nerves was examined. The results of SFI and tensometric assessment showed improvement in all experimental groups as compared to control, with best outcome observed in group C, exposed to the strongest magnetic field. In addition, DRG survival rate and nerve regeneration intensity were significantly higher in the C group. Above results indicate that strong spatial alternating magnetic field exerts positive effect on peripheral nerve regeneration and its application could be taken under consideration in the therapy of injured peripheral nerves.

Abstract
A combination of FTIR and UV spectroscopy is proposed as a novel technique for integrated real-time monitoring of metabolic activity and growth rates of cell cultures, required for systematic studies of cellular low-frequency (LF) electric and magnetic field (EMF) effects. As an example, we investigated simultaneous influence of periodic LF 3D EMFs on a culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast) cells. Amplitudes, frequencies and phases of the field components were the variable parameters. Electromagnetic fields were found to efficiently control the activity of the yeast cells, with the resulting CO(2) production rates, as monitored by FTIR spectroscopy, varying by at least one order of magnitude due to the field action. Additionally, population dynamics of the yeast cells was monitored by UV absorption of the yeast culture at λ(prob) = 320 nm, and compared to the CO(2) production rates. The detected physiologically active frequencies are all below 1 kHz, namely, 800 Hz excitation was effective in reducing the metabolic rates and arresting cell proliferation, whereas 200 Hz excitation was active in accelerating both cell proliferation and overall metabolic rates. The proposed methods produce objective, reliable and quantitative real-time results within minutes and may be used in various tasks that could benefit from a rapid feedback they provide in the form of metabolic and growth rates. Amplitude and frequency dependences of the LF EMF effects from individual field components with different polarizations were recorded and qualitatively interpreted based on a simple model, describing ion diffusion through a membrane channel.

Abstract
The surge of interest in bioenergy has been marked with increasing efforts in research and development to identify new sources of biomass and to incorporate cutting-edge biotechnology to improve efficiency and increase yields. It is evident that various microorganisms will play an integral role in the development of this newly emerging industry, such as yeast for ethanol and Escherichia coli for fine chemical fermentation. However, it appears that microalgae have become the most promising prospect for biomass production due to their ability to grow fast, produce large quantities of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins, thrive in poor quality waters, sequester and recycle carbon dioxide from industrial flue gases and remove pollutants from industrial, agricultural and municipal wastewaters. In an attempt to better understand and manipulate microorganisms for optimum production capacity, many researchers have investigated alternative methods for stimulating their growth and metabolic behavior. One such novel approach is the use of electromagnetic fields for the stimulation of growth and metabolic cascades and controlling biochemical pathways. An effort has been made in this review to consolidate the information on the current status of biostimulation research to enhance microbial growth and metabolism using electromagnetic fields. It summarizes information on the biostimulatory effects on growth and other biological processes to obtain insight regarding factors and dosages that lead to the stimulation and also what kind of processes have been reportedly affected. Diverse mechanistic theories and explanations for biological effects of electromagnetic fields on intra and extracellular environment have been discussed. The foundations of biophysical interactions such as bioelectromagnetic and biophotonic communication and organization within living systems are expounded with special consideration for spatiotemporal aspects of electromagnetic topology, leading to the potential of multipolar electromagnetic systems. The future direction for the use of biostimulation using bioelectromagnetic, biophotonic and electrochemical methods have been proposed for biotechnology industries in general with emphasis on an holistic biofuel system encompassing production of algal biomass, its processing and conversion to biofuel.

Abstract
AbstractThe ability to respond to magnetic fields is ubiquitous among the five kingdoms of organisms. Apart from the mechanisms that are at work in bacterial magnetotaxis, none of the innumerable magnetobiological effects are as yet completely understood in terms of their underlying physical principles. Physical theories on magnetoreception, which draw on classical electrodynamics as well as on quantum electrodynamics, have greatly advanced during the past twenty years, and provide a basis for biological experimentation. This review places major emphasis on theories, and magnetobiological effects that occur in response to weak and moderate magnetic fields, and that are not related to magnetotaxis and magnetosomes. While knowledge relating to bacterial magnetotaxis has advanced considerably during the past 27 years, the biology of other magnetic effects has remained largely on a phenomenological level, a fact that is partly due to a lack of model organisms and model responses; and in great part also to the circumstance that the biological community at large takes little notice of the field, and in particular of the available physical theories. We review the known magnetobiological effects for bacteria, protists and fungi, and try to show how the variegated empirical material could be approached in the framework of the available physical models.

Abstract
In this study, we adopted several methods of MTT colorimetry, DAPI fluorimetry and ELISA to study the effects of extremely low frequency (ELF) capacitively coupled electric fields (EFs) on the metabolism of 6B1 cells. The result shows that 50 mV cm(-1) ELF EF (10-100 Hz) has no significant effect on proliferation, DNA synthesis and activity of succinate dehydrogenase of 6B1 cells, indicating that the effect of ELF (10-100 Hz) EF on the metabolism of 6B1 cells is not obvious. However, 50 mV cm(-1), 50 Hz EF significantly promotes the HBs-Ab (Hepatitis B surface antibody) secretion of 6B1 cells, implying that under this situation, EF has some distinctive effect on the outerface of 6B1 cell membrane.
