When you first step into a biotechnology lab, you’re armed with textbook knowledge about molecular techniques, equipment protocols, and theoretical frameworks. You know how to run a PCR, interpret gels, and calculate molarity. But here’s what they don’t tell you in university: technical expertise alone won’t make you a successful biotechnologist. The real differentiators are the “soft” skills that separate good lab workers from exceptional ones.

The most considerable solid waste from crude palm oil plants is oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) which contains cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose. Hemicellulose can be hydrolyzed to xylose and then converted to furfural via dehydration. Pretreatment is one of the steps in the bioconversion of lignocellulose material to reduce lignin. This study developed a one-pot process to conduct pretreatment and furfural production simultaneously.
This research comprehensively evaluated the additional extract of Solanum ferox (SFE) and probiotic Lactobacillus casei (LC) on catfish (Clarias gariepinus var.) feed to enhance growth, feed efficiency, and resistance toward Aeromonas hydrophila and Pseudomonas fluorescens bacterial infection.
In this study, the response of Dieng red potato plants to frost exposure was evaluated physiologically by testing electrolyte leakage and chlorophyll content, and molecularly by detection of Inh2 gene. The physiological response shows an increased electrolyte leakage rate and a significant decrease in chlorophyll content in plants exposed to frost compared to those grown in normal temperatures.
