  2. 6. A study of ethylene production via the 2-oxoglutarate dependent pathway in S. cerevisiae

    Author : Nina Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ethylene forming enzyme; Ethylene; respiration rate; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; cultivation; production; nitrogen metabolism; 2-oxoglutarate; enzyme engineering; metabolic modeling;

    Abstract : The detrimental effect of the petroleum industry on the environment combined with the threat of peak oil has driven the exploration for alternative strategies to produce traditional petrochemicals. Biotechnological production could be an alternative, using microorganisms to convert renewable feedstocks into desired products. READ MORE

  4. 7. Dietary fibre production from oat hulls

    Author : Eva Schmitz; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Oat hulls; Dietary fibre; Chemical composition; Bleaching; Pre-treatment; Enzyme synergy;

    Abstract : The current threats of climate change connected to the unsustainable consumption of fossil resources paired with an increasing world population demands the exploration of alternative raw materials for the production of food, fuel and specialty chemicals. Agricultural waste streams present suitable sources due to their availability in large quantities at low costs without competing with current food production. READ MORE

  5. 8. Amine Transaminases in Biocatalytic Amine Synthesis

    Author : Henrik Land; Per Berglund; Helen C. Hailes; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Amine Transaminase; Biocatalysis; Transamination; Reductive Amination; Enzyme; Enzyme Engineering; Equilibrium Displacement; Screening; Enzyme Stability; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : The use of enzymes, nature´s own catalysts, both isolated or as whole cells to perform chemical transformations is called biocatalysis. As a complement to classical chemical catalysis, biocatalysis can be an environmentally friendly and more economical option in the production and synthesis of chemicals. READ MORE

  6. 9. Metaproteogenomics-guided enzyme discovery : Targeted identification of novel proteases in microbial communities

    Author : Mikaela Johansson; Martin Karlsson; Bengt-Harald Jonsson; Florian-Alexander Herbst; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Industrial biotechnology is a large and growing industry as it is part of establishing a “greener” and more sustainable bioeconomy-based society. Using enzymes as biocatalysts is a viable alternative to chemicals and energy intense industrial processes and is en route to a more sustainable industry. READ MORE

  7. 10. Lipase-catalyzed production of structured triacylglycerols

    Author : Ariana Causevic; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structured lipids; Lipase; Acyl migration; Immobilization; Lipid analysis; Transesterification; Water activity;

    Abstract : Vegetable oils and fats are major energy sources but also play an essential part in the physical and chemical properties of food products. The current change in the climate is affecting harvest yields, leading to a shortage and increased prices of raw materials that are difficult to replace. READ MORE
