Pharmaceutical waste management through microbial bioremediation

mycolabadmin

Medicines we take are ending up in our water supplies and harming ecosystems. Instead of using expensive chemical treatments, scientists are using microorganisms like fungi and bacteria to break down pharmaceutical waste into harmless substances. This biological approach is cheaper and more environmentally friendly, though challenges remain in scaling up the technology. Additionally, designing medicines that naturally degrade after leaving the body could prevent pollution at its source.

Physicochemical Properties and Volatile Profile of Chito: A Traditional Dry-Cured Goat Meat Product

mycolabadmin

Chito is a traditional Mexican goat meat product that comes in two forms: one for immediate eating and one pressed for sale in other regions. Researchers studied these products over three years and found that the pressed version becomes harder, saltier, and develops more of the rancid flavors associated with fat breakdown. Despite these differences, both versions maintain safe bacteria levels through the natural preservation from salt and sun-drying.
