Microplastics toxicology and bioremediation strategies for a sustainable future: a comprehensive review

This comprehensive review covers the sources, toxicity, and bioremediation strategies for microplastic pollution. Researchers summarized how microplastics enter organisms through contaminated food and water and can cause harmful effects at the cellular level. The study highlights promising biological approaches for breaking down microplastics, including enzyme-based methods and microbial degradation, as potential paths toward a more sustainable solution.

Biodiversity of Secondary Metabolites Compounds Isolated from Phylum Actinobacteria and Its Therapeutic Applications

This review summarizes the biodiversity of secondary metabolites produced by Actinobacteria across diverse ecological environments, including marine, terrestrial, and extreme habitats. Researchers found that these bacteria produce a wide range of bioactive compounds with potential pharmaceutical applications, including antimicrobial, antitumor, and anti-inflammatory properties. The study highlights the importance of exploring underinvestigated environments for discovering novel natural products.

Tara Mission Microplastics rDNA 18S V9 ASV table (DADA2)

Researchers released an 18S V9 amplicon sequence variant (ASV) table generated via DADA2 from the Tara Mission Microplastics expedition, providing a eukaryotic community dataset linked to microplastic-associated samples across global ocean transects. The dataset includes contextual metadata on sampling protocols, temperature, and nutrient concentrations to facilitate ecological analysis of plastisphere communities.

Tara Mission Microplastics rDNA 18S V9 ASV table (DADA2)

Researchers released an 18S V9 amplicon sequence variant (ASV) table generated via DADA2 from the Tara Mission Microplastics expedition, providing a eukaryotic community dataset linked to microplastic-associated samples across global ocean transects. The dataset is a duplicate record of the same Tara Mission Microplastics 18S V9 ASV table, including contextual data and phyloseq-formatted outputs.
