The main goal of this paper was to assess the ability of a combination of Candida boidinii and Bacillus pumilus to remove phenol in table olive processing water, as a function of some variables, like temperature, pH, a dilution of waste and the order of inoculation of the two microorganisms. At this purpose C. boidinii and B. pumilus were sequentially inoculated in two types of table olive processing water (fresh wastewater, FTOPW and wastewater stored for 3 months-aged wastewater, ATOPW). pH (6 and 9), temperature (10 and 35 °C) and dilution ratio (0, 1:1) were combined through a 2k fractional design. Data were modeled using two different approaches: Multifactorial Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) and multiple regression. A higher removal yield was achieved by inoculating B. pumilus prior to the yeast (192 vs. 127 mg/L); moreover, an increased efficiency was gained at 35 °C (mean removal of 200 mg/L). The use of two statistic approach suggested a different weight of variables; temperature was a global variable, that is a factor able to affect the yield of the process in all conditions. On the other hand, an alkaline pH could increase the removal of phenol at 10 °C (25–43%).

A comparative study was performed on Trichoderma harzianum and a combination of Candida boidinii/Bacillus pumilus to reduce the polluting effect of TOPW (Table Olive Processing Water) from the Spanish style. A 2k fractional design was used to study the effect of pH (6–11 for the fungus and 6–9 for Candida/Bacillus), temperature (10–35 °C) and duration (7–14 days for Candida/Bacillus and 14–21 days for T. harzianum), and the effect on phenol reduction, COD and color was evaluated. The experiments were also performed on diluted TOPW (dilution ratio 1:1). Generally, Trichoderma removed higher amounts of phenols and reduced COD more than the combination Candida/Bacillus, thus confirming the higher efficiency of filamentous fungi reported in the literature. The dilution of TOPW had an effect only on COD reduction; however, the effect was mild, at least for T. harzianum (4%), while yield increase was 9% for Bacillus/Candida. pH acted in a different way on phenol removal and COD reduction; an increase of pH caused a reduction of efficiency for COD, while the effect was positive for phenols.

In this study, four different kinds of table olive fermentations belonging to Olea europaea L. Itrana cultivar were evaluated: A, spontaneous fermentation; B, fermentation with a single inoculum (Lactiplantibacillus plantarum B1); C, fermentation with multiple inoculum (L. plantarum B1 + L. plantarum B51 + L. plantarum B124, 1:1:1); and D, fermentation with mixed (bacterium + yeast) inoculum (L. plantarum B1 + Candida boidinii). This research focuses on the correlation between the different mixes of inoculations and their effect under the chemical, sensorial, and textural profiles in the final products (olives) for potential applications on table olive fermentation. During the fermentation, some specific parameters were monitored: chemical characterization of oil fraction (pigments, tocopherols, fatty acids, alkyl esters, and sterol composition), Texture Profile Analysis (TPA), determination of olive color, and sensory evaluation of the final products. The use of LAB starters (single and multiple inocula) compared to spontaneous process revealed a greater performance in preventing the spoilage process and in developing favorable physico-chemical conditions during the fermentation. In fact, the highest values of fatty acid alkyl esters were reached in spontaneous fermentation (~480 mg/kg in jar A). The presence of C. boidinii as inoculum in jar D was involved in table olive softening: the fermented olives showed the lowest values of the parameters related to consistence of fruit as hardness (~2300 g) and gumminess (~990 g) and high value of fatty acid methyl esters (~110 mg/kg).

ABSTRACTThe present work details thein vitrointeractions betweenLactobacillus pentosusand yeast strains isolated from table olive processing to form mixed biofilms. Among the different pairs assayed, the strongest biofilms were obtained fromL. pentosusandCandida boidiniistrain cocultures. However, biofilm formation was inhibited in the presence ofd-(+)-mannose. In addition, biofilm formation byC. boidiniimonoculture was stimulated in the absence of cell-cell contact withL. pentosus. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that a sort of “sticky” material formed by the yeasts contributed to substrate adherence. Hence, the data obtained in this work suggest that yeast-lactobacilli biofilms may be favored by the presence of a specific mate of yeast andL. pentosus, and that more than one mechanism might be implicated in the biofilm formation. This knowledge will help in the design of appropriate mixed starter cultures ofL. pentosus-yeast species pairs that are able to improve the quality and safety of Spanish-style green table olive processing.

Karwinskia humboldtiana is a poisonous plant that grows in semi desertic areas in north and central México. It produces several substances with different toxic effects. One of them designated T-514 damages severely the lung, kidney and liver, producing in the hepatoeyte large intracellular fat deposits and necrosis. Preliminary observations demonstrated that three is a decrease in the amount of peroxisomes in the hepatocytes of experimentally intoxicated rats and monkeys. To study the effect exerted by the T-514 on peroxisomes, a yeast model was selected, thus, three species: Saccha romices cerevisiae, Ilansenula polymorpha and Candida boidinii were used, because there is information concerning their peroxisome's morphology, enzyme content, biological behaviour under different culture conditions and biogenesis.

In the design engineering of high performance electromagnetic lenses, the direct conversion of electron optical design data into drawings for reliable hardware is oftentimes difficult, especially in terms of how to mount parts to each other, how to tolerance dimensions, and how to specify finishes. An answer to this is in the use of magnetostatic analytics, corresponding to boundary conditions for the optical design. With such models, the magnetostatic force on a test pole along the axis may be examined, and in this way one may obtain priority listings for holding dimensions, relieving stresses, etc..The development of magnetostatic models most easily proceeds from the derivation of scalar potentials of separate geometric elements. These potentials can then be conbined at will because of the superposition characteristic of conservative force fields.

Mental revolution of education requires efforts to print educated human beings by having the motivation to meet the standards of achievement excellence, such as ethos of progress, ethics, achievement motivation, discipline, optimistic, productive, innovative and active views. This can be implemented with character education. Character education is one of the soft skill tools that can be integrated in learning in each subject. Learning activities using an active learning approach have a strategic role in instilling national character values so that students are able to behave and act on values that have become their personality. The purpose of this study was to find and analyze about: 1) Implementation of Character Education to Build Adiwiyata-Based Mental Revolution and Multiculturalism; 2) Implementation of Character Education to Build Mental Revolution in Organizational Culture. This study uses a qualitative approach with phenomenological naturatistics (phenomenology approach), with a descriptive type of case study research design. Data were analyzed using data analysis techniques: data reduction, data analysis and conclusions. The results of the study are: The application of character education to develop a mental revolution can be started from the character of building the environment. Environmental character is very important for individual development. The implementation of character education in building a mental revolution can emphasize the internalization of multicultural values and Adiwiyata which in the end will form a loving environmental awareness and foster a spirit of tolerance.
