TL;DR

Serratiopeptidase derived from S. marcescens SP6 underwent a four-step purification process, resulting in a 15.91-fold increase in purity, and exhibited resistance to degradation by trypsin and serum, suggesting its possible use as an adjunct therapeutic agent alongside conventional antimicrobials to combat biofilm-associated infections.

Efficient purification and biochemical characterization of a thermostable and organic solvent-stable α-amylase from Bacillus licheniformis SO7

In vitro findings indicate potential applicability of SO7 α-amylase in high-temperature and alkaline bioprocesses; however, solvent tolerance was assessed only under the tested short-term conditions, and performance under real industrial process conditions remains to be validated.
