Advancements in Strain Development and Genetic Engineering for Cellulase Production: A Systematic Review Navneet Sharma, Deepali Aggarwal, Sheelendra Mangal Bhatt Journal of Environmental Nanotechnology, 2025 Strains, defined as subtypes or genetic variants of microorganisms, are selectively developed at an industrial scale to enhance the production of cellulases and other metabolites. These strains, bacterial or fungal, are genetically engineered to improve traits such as rapid growth, genetic stability, productivity, and ease of cultivation. Genetic modifications are typically aimed at increasing or altering gene expression to maximize output. Cellulases are enzymes that catalyze the breakdown of cellulose into simpler sugars, enabling its conversion into biofuels and other value-added products. In particular, bacterial cellulose produced by Acetobacteraceae is recognized for its purity, biocompatibility, and natural origin, making it highly suitable for applications in material science. To further enhance cellulase yields, researchers identify and utilize strains capable of high productivity under low-nitrogen conditions. Recombinant DNA technology is employed to sequence genomes, introduce genetic constructs, and express target proteins in host cells. In fungal systems, advanced approaches such as the Reconstruction of Expression Regulatory Network (REXRN) have been applied to fine-tune gene expression and enhance the production of cellulase enzymes involved in cellulose degradation. Together, these strategies support the development of high-performance microbial strains for industrial biotechnology applications.
A Comprehensive Review on the Role of Gymenma sylvestre in Combating Diabetes-2 S. M. Bhatt, Navneet Sharma Journal of Natural Remedies, 2024 The current review focuses on a detailed comprehensive role of Gymnema sylvestre (GS) and other herbs for their Ayurvedic impact in controlling blood sugar by releasing insulin from the pancreas in diabetic Type 2. G. sylvestre (GS) supplementation has also been seen to leave an impact on various cardiovascular risk factors and improves the lipid profile, blood pressure, anthropometric indices, and control of glycemia. Additionally, extracts of Gymnema have been shown to have an inhibitory impact on triglyceride accumulation in muscles and the liver, while reducing the buildup of fatty acids in the bloodstream, thus also reducing HB1C parameters. In the current review, we have also discussed information about Gymnemic acid structure isolation their sources, their clinical effects in diabetic control in Type 1 and Type 2, and clinical effects over the humans and mice signalling as immunomodulators.
A critical review on nano-food packaging and its applications Sheelendra M BHATT Journal of Commercial Biotechnology, 2020 The present manuscript addresses the effect of nanotechnology in various food sectors. Increasedfood functionality, enhanced flavor, reduced delivery of food additives are some of theappealing choices raising plausibility of high health advantages hypothesized in future. At theface of explosion of information, it is important to monitor them in a brief and updated manner.In this manner, new nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes, nano-biopolymers have diverseapplications in food packaging, good food release property with enhanced food safety features.Furthermore, nano-encapsulation of probiotics, nano applications in food processing sector andother related issues, new functional nanomaterials for use in food along with their propertieshave been talked about in this review paper.

Lignocellulosic feedstock conversion, inhibitor detoxification and cellulosic hydrolysis - A review Sheelendra M. Bhatt, Shilpa Biofuels, 2014 The current review is an attempt to cover various pre-treatment strategies such as physical, chemical, organosolve and biological pre-treatment in order to change the crystallinity of lignocellulosic biomass along with methods and strategies for inhibitor detoxification for improving the cellulose hydrolysis and fermentation. The presence of lignin in lignocellulosic biomass is the biggest hurdle and therefore a judicial pre-treatment selection technique is important, based on lignocellulosic mass composition analysis for improving overall saccharification. The production of inhibitors during pre-treatment is another cause of low saccharification owing to deactivation of cellulase enzyme. In this review a comprehensive discussion has been made of the impact of various pre-treatment strategies on overall hydrolysis and saccharification in view of the varied composition of lignocellulosic biomass. Various detoxification approaches have also been discussed, along with the economical bioprocessing issue, and their advantages and disadvantages. Bio refinery approaches have been important in this regard to make bioethanol production more economical.

Optimization studies of alkaline cellulase from bacillus licheniformis sm1 isolated from rice agricultural soil using taguchi methodology Sheelendra M. Bhatt, Pankaj Lakhwan, Shilpa Shilpa Biosciences Biotechnology Research Asia, 2014 The aim of the present work was to screen microbes related to alkaline cellulase production from rhizosphere of rice field soil from Phagwara, Punjab. Out of 9 isolates screened, isolate 6 th designated as SM1 was selected for alkaline cellulase study. Results of 16S rRNA revealed this strain as Bacillus licheniformis. Various medium conditions affecting cellulase activity such as pH, C/N ratio, Tween-20 and lactose were optimized using L9 conditions by Taguchi methodology in submerged conditions. Factors having significant impact over alkaline cellulase activity were in order pH > C/N ratio > Tween20 > Lactose. The most optimum conditions for cellulase production was pH 9; C/N, 1:2; Lactose, 1 % (w/v) and Tween 20, 1 %(v/v) at 50 0C.
