In recent years the necessity for biotechnological manufacturing based on lignocellulosic feedstocks has become evident. However, the pre-treatment step in the production of lignocellulosic bioethanol leads to the accumulation of inhibitory byproducts. Robust second generation bioethanol processes require microorganisms able to ferment these inhibitory lignocellulosic hydrolysates. Significant progress has been...
Since industrialization and the formation of larger urban centers in the nineteenth century, pollution of the environment was always present in daily life in various ways, namely in the form of light. Light pollution can cause various consequences, both for humans and for their ecosystem, producing effects on environmental, social, economic and scientific level.

Bacterial biofilms on medical devices (MD) are commonly associated with persistent infections. Biofilm formation is central to pathogenesis due to the ability of the biofilm-entrapped bacteria to evade the host immune responses and the increased antimicrobial resistance phenotype often shown by sessile microorganisms. In order to control the infections related with MD, antimicrobial peptide conditioning of MD s...
