Understanding and controlling filamentous growth of fungal cell factories: novel tools and opportunities for targeted morphology engineering

mycolabadmin

Fungi are used in industry to produce medicines, chemicals, and enzymes in large fermentation tanks. However, the way these fungal cells grow and clump together greatly affects how much product they make, but scientists don’t yet fully understand or control this growth. This review discusses new tools like genetic engineering, computer modelling, and special imaging techniques that are helping researchers better understand and control fungal growth patterns to improve industrial production.

Effective Regulation of ZnO Surface Facets for Enhanced Photoluminescence Properties Assisted by Zinc Quaternary Ammonium Salts

mycolabadmin

Researchers developed a simple method to create special zinc oxide (ZnO) structures shaped like mushrooms with enhanced light-emitting properties. By adjusting the ratio of methanol to water in a heating process and using a special zinc-based chemical as a building block controller, they achieved structures with specific crystal surface exposures. These twined-mushroom structures showed significantly brighter light emission, making them promising candidates for use in light-emitting devices that require single-color output.
