This study explores the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using the Streptomyces tuirus S16 strain, presenting an eco-friendly alternative to mitigate the environmental and health risks of chemical synthesis methods. It focuses on optimizi...
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) derived from Actinobacteria fermentations on agro-wastes constitutes a safer and low-cost alternative to synthetic IAA. This study aims to select a high IAA-producing Streptomyces-like strain isolated from Lake Oubeira sedi...
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) represents a crucial phytohormone regulating specific tropic responses in plants and functions as a chemical signal between plant hosts and their symbionts. The Actinobacteria strain of AW22 with high IAA production ability...
Rare neglected diseases may be neglected but are hardly rare, affecting hundreds of millions of people around the world. Here, we present a hit identification approach using AtomNet, the world's first deep convolutional neural network for structure-b...
