Sobre IBD

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the transformative impact of microbial biotechnology on textile innovation. Through a series of in-depth chapters, it investigates how microbial processes and products are reshaping the textile industry towards greater sustainability, efficiency, and environmental responsibility. The book begins by introducing fundamental concepts, emphasizing the significance of microbial biotechnology in textile applications. It then delves into specific areas of microbial intervention within the textile supply chain, starting with the utilization of microbial enzymes for eco-friendly bioprocessing. Readers will gain insights into the mechanisms and applications of these enzymes in processes such as desizing, scouring, bleaching, and finishing, highlighting their advantages over traditional chemical methods. The book further explores the potential of microbial pigments as bio-based alternatives to synthetic dyes. It examines the diversity of microbial pigments, their extraction methods, and their successful integration into textile dyeing processes. Additionally, the text investigates the use of microbial biosurfactants for textile cleaning and finishing, showcasing their effectiveness and sustainability compared to conventional surfactants. A significant focus is placed on emerging technologies like green nanomaterials derived from microbial sources, detailing their synthesis, properties, and applications in textile biotechnology. The utilization of microbial biofilms on textile surfaces is also explored, illuminating their role in enhancing durability and functionality. Moreover, the book addresses critical challenges such as textile waste management through microbial biotechnology solutions. It presents innovative approaches for biodegradation, effluent treatment, and waste reduction using microbial processes, contributing to circular economy principles within the textile sector. In the last, the book navigates through regulatory and ethical considerations associated with microbial biotechnology adoption in textiles. It guides readers on compliance frameworks and ethical best practices, ensuring responsible and sustainable implementation. This book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and students in biotechnology, microbiology, textile engineering, and related disciplines. It equips readers with the knowledge and practical insights needed to leverage microbial biotechnology effectively for textile innovation, making it essential reading for those seeking to drive positive change within the textile industry.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...

    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...
