Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will focus on the latest research in the development of technologies used to investigate various aspects of the impact of the production of fermented bioactive products from marine biomass. Bioactive metabolites produced by microorganisms exhibit various biological activities, such as antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer activities. Recently, fermented products have been considered a promising alternative to meet the increasing consumer demand for healthy food.

This Special Issue includes not just innovative and varied approaches to boost the efficiency of emerging fermentation products but also features articles detailing recent findings and uses in characterizing newfound compounds. Our aim is to create a platform where experts worldwide can exchange research and perspectives on different facets of the bioactive metabolites attainable through fermentation, fostering more discussions and enhancing our understanding of the subject.

We welcome research articles, review articles, and short communications.

Dr. In Yung Sunwoo
Guest Editor
