Microbial inefficient substrate use through the perspective of resource allocation models
(Elsevier, 2021)Microorganisms extract energy from substrates following strategies that may seem suboptimal at first glance. Beyond the so-called yield-rate trade-off, resource allocation models, which focus on assigning different functional ... -
Nanomaterial Synthesis in Ionic Liquids and Their Use on the Photocatalytic Degradation of Emerging Pollutants
(MDPI, 2021)The unique properties of ionic liquids make them suitable candidates to prepare nanoscale materials. A simple method that uses exclusively a corresponding bulk material and an ionic liquid—in this case, [P6,6,6,14]Cl—was ... -
Resource allocation explains lactic acid production in mixed‐culture anaerobic fermentations
(Wiley, 2021)Lactate production in anaerobic carbohydrate fermentations with mixed cultures of microorganisms is generally observed only in very specific conditions: the reactor should be run discontinuously and peptides and B vitamins ... -
Assessing the sustainability dimension at local scale: Case study of Spanish cities
(Elsevier, 2020)Nowadays, cities host most of the world population. As a result of human activities within their boundaries, most greenhouse gases emissions, natural resources consumption and waste generation are concentrated in urban ... -
Microbial catabolic activities are naturally selected by metabolic energy harvest rate
(Springer Nature, 2015)The fundamental trade-off between yield and rate of energy harvest per unit of substrate has been largely discussed as a main characteristic for microbial established cooperation or competition. In this study, this point ...
