High throughput cell free protein synthesis methods and systems are provided for expression of active, mature enzymes and proteins derived from zymogens and proproteins. Zymogens and proproteins are expressed in their mature, active form in a cell free expression system, without cleavage of a pro-sequence to produce the active polypeptide.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a 3D printed hydrogel, wherein at least two different populations of cells are embedded in the 3D printed hydrogel. The different populations of cells can produce one or more products. The 3D printed hydrogel can be lyophilized and rehydrated, and the cells can continue to produce the product. Also disclosed are methods of producing a product, and methods of producing a 3D printed hydrogel comprising different populations of cells.

Provided herein are various microbial compositions and methods for preparing these compositions.

Disclosed is a method for preparing the same. The method for preparing a carrier including ammonium oxidizing bacteria immobilized therein includes: preparing a PVA-alginate mixed solution containing PVA mixed with alginate; adding sludge containing ammonium oxidizing bacteria and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO.sub.3) to the PVA-alginate mixed solution to obtain a foaming-beading solution; and dropping the foaming-beading solution to a saturated boric acid solution to obtain beads including sludge immobilized therein, wherein sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO.sub.3) is decomposed to produce carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) which is discharged to the exterior of the beads to form pores in the beads, when the foaming-beading solution is dropped to the saturated boric acid solution to obtain beads including sludge immobilized therein.
