Thermotargetron for modifying thermophilic microorganisms
The Thermotargetron is a genetic tool for modifying thermophilic micro­organisms using a type-II intron element, TeI3c‑4c. It allows efficient gene inactivation across a broad host range without needing selection markers and can target short gene sequences. Background Renewable fuels like bioethanol are increasingly vital due to rising global...

Lithium selective organogels
Background Lithium (Li) is a highly reactive alkali metal with excellent heat and electrical conductivity properties, making it useful for a variety of industrial applications. Because of Li’s high reactivity, pure elemental Li is not found in nature but is present as a constituent of salts or other compounds found in brines, mineral ores, clays,...
