Biological Insights

Metabolism is a major source of cell information that combines information from the outside world with information from inside the cell to help cells make decisions about how to use nutrients, communicate, or change into new cells. This dual role has brought back a focus on metabolism in fields ranging from microbiology to cancer research. […]

Biofortification

Economic inflation and climate change have all become important challenges to a healthy and quiet living since the beginning of the twenty-first century.  However, few people are aware of a far larger problem known as “hidden hunger” that exists in the background.  Micronutrients, proteins, vitamins, and other critical elements are deficient in the diets of

Biofertilizers: Definition

Numerous microorganisms are useful for the soil and help in absorbing necessary nutrients in the environment. By picking out the important and efficient microorganisms and culturing them, their benefits can be increased. These microorganisms can be added to the soil directly. These are called biofertilizers.  Biofertilizers are defined as materials that embody microorganisms that are

Biofertilisers: An Overview

Introduction Biofertilizers are essential for the biosphere’s nutrient cycle. Moreover, it is the critical route on which plants rely for nutrients. They contain microorganisms’ living or latent cells. These substances are essential for enhancing the nutrients of the host plants. In addition, they are also more reasonable in terms of price than chemical fertilisers. Over

Biocatalyst property

Biocatalysis is the metabolic transformation of chemicals for producing new chemicals for industrial uses. It has become a vital part of modern organic synthesis, which is applicable in academia and pharmaceutical industries. The factor that skyrocketed the success of the Biocatalyst property was the expansion of the range of chemical reactions which are also accessible.

Benefits of Single Cell Protein Production

Single-cell proteins are dried microorganism cells that are used as a protein supplement in human foods and animal feeds. Microorganisms such as algae, fungi, yeast, and bacteria use cheap feedstock and waste as sources of carbon and energy for growth to produce biomass, protein concentrate, or amino acids. Because protein constitutes a quantitatively significant portion

Barrier Methods

As the name suggests, these methods act as barriers to prevent the sperm from reaching and fertilising an egg. Barrier methods are those methods that prevent the physical meeting of sperm with ovum by acting as a barrier between them for the prevention of pregnancy at the time of sexual intercourse. Also, they prevent the
