A graphical abstract titled: Bioconversion of Food Waste to Single-Cell Oils (SCO) and Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) by Microorganisms. The visual flow starts with an image of assorted food waste, such as fruit peels and scraps, followed by a microscopic view of yeast or bacterial cells. These lead to a central image of a large stainless steel industrial bioreactor, which finally connects to a close-up of golden oil droplets, representing the produced single-cell oil and polyhydroxyalkanoates.

A flow diagram titled: Sourcing Vanillin via Fermentative Biotechnology. The process moves from left to right in three labelled columns. The first column (blue), labelled: Substrates, lists starting materials: glucose, ferulic acid, eugenol, isoeugenol, et cetera. Three black arrows point from the Substrates to the second column (light purple) labelled: Cell Factories. These include illustrations of bacterial (an oblong cell), fungal (yeast-like budding cells), and plant (a green leaf) sources. A final arrow points to the third column, labelled: Product, which displays the chemical structure of vanillin above an illustration of two vanilla beans. At the bottom of the diagram, a caption reads: Production of vanillin from diverse substrates using engineered hosts.

Flowchart titled: Enrichment of Listeria monocytogenes + cell lysis + detection by inlA LAMP, illustrates a food safety testing process and its performance statistics. The workflow: Step 1: Food samples (a slice of blue-veined and a slice of white cheese) undergo pre-enrichment. Step 2: Samples are placed in Fraser enrichment broth; a black color indicates a presumptively positive for L. monocytogenes. Step 3: Lysing buffers are added to create lysed cells in TZ buffer. Step 4: Detection via LAMP assay. Test tubes with a light blue color indicate a positive (+) result for L. monocytogenes, while purple tubes indicate a negative (-) result for non-Listeria samples. Performance characteristics of inlA gene-targeting LAMP assay: Sensitivity (SE): 100 % Specificity (SP): 92 % for non-monocytogenes Listeria; 100 % for non-Listeria; 96 % for all non-L. monocytogenes Limit of Detection (LOD): 500 fg DNA per LAMP reaction, which is approximately 157 cells per LAMP reaction.

Top left to right: The culture in a Petri dish shows light-coloured colonies of Streptomyces rimosus ATCC 10970 growing on a yellowish medium. A blue arrow points from the Petri dish to the linear genomic map. This horizontal line represents a biosynthetic gene cluster. The vertical colour bars indicate specific genes, numbered 1, 3, 6, 9, 14, 21, 23, and then further right, numbers 29, 30, 31, 35, 44 and 45, which code for the enzymes needed to build complex molecules. Bottom of the picture shows two chemical products. Thin blue lines lead from specific sections of the gene cluster to the chemical structures of two secondary metabolites: oxytetracycline (OTC), a broad-spectrum antibiotic, shown on the left side. The structure shows its characteristic four-ring core. On the right is a much larger, more complex structure of rimocin (RIM), an antifungal compound.

Diagram showing modern food systems challenged by food safety culture. On top is olive green rectangle with words: Human behaviour, and arrows lead down towards dark red words at the bottom: Food safety culture. On the left are listed elements: 1. Food production and supply nets, 2. Good practices, 3. Education and training, 4. Globalisation, 5. Transparency, 6. Risk communication, and 7. Leadership. From there, a blue arrow points to the right, where it says: Safe, sustainable and quality food.
