  1. 16. Structural and functional investigation of underexplored carbohydrate-active enzyme families

    Author : Andrea Seveso; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; carbohydrate-active enzymes; lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase; plant biomass degradation; copper radical oxidases; carbohydrate esterase; protein structure determination; protein structure prediction;

    Abstract : The known consequences of the current fossil-based economy require a transition towards a bio-based economy. Development of biorefineries in which plant biomass can be utilized as a renewable source of energy and building blocks to produce both commodities and high-value products, is a key step in this transition.

  2. 17. Biomass, community structure and phosphorus uptake of ectomycorrhizal fungi in response to phosphorus limitation and nitrogen deposition

    Author : Juan Pablo Almeida; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phosphorus and nitrogen limitation; nitrogen deposition; ectomycorrhizal fungi; community composition; apatite; Paxillus involutus; Phosphorus and nitrogen limitation; nitrogen deposition; ectomycorrhizal fungi; community composition; apatite; Paxillus involutus;

    Abstract : High levels of nitrogen (N) deposition might result in a transition from N to phosphorus (P) limitation in high latitude forests. Thiscould have fundamental consequences for forest production, nutrient acquisition and nutrient leaching. READ MORE

  3. 18. X-ray structure and function studies of key enzymes for biomass conversion: GH6 cellobiohydrolases and GH61 lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMO)

    Author : Miao Wu; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The need for large enzyme quantities due to the difficult hydrolysis of recalcitrant polysaccharides is still a major barrier to economical biomass conversion for biofuel production. To discover or develop new efficient wood degrading enzymes and add into enzyme cocktails are essential for optimizing enzymatic conversion of biomass. READ MORE

  4. 19. Wastewater treatment from pharmaceutical substances with filamentous fungi

    Author : Brigita Dalecka; Gunaratna Kuttuva Rajarao; Talis Juhna; Paul Van der Wielen; Lima Nelson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Filamentous fungi; municipal wastewater; pharmaceutical substances; fungal fluidized bed pelleted bioreactor; nutrients; diclofenac; ketoprofen; Trametes versicolor; Aspergillus luchuensis; Filamentösa svampar; kommunalt avloppsvatten; läkemedelsrester; bioreaktor; näringsämnen; diklofenak; ketoprofen; Trametes versicolor; Aspergillus luchuensis; Mikroskopiskās sēnes; sadzīves notekūdeņi; farmaceitiskās vielas; mikroskopisko sēņu bioreaktors; diklofenaks; ketoprofens; Trametes versicolor; Aspergillus luchuensis; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : The ever-increasing concern about the widespread occurrence of pharmaceutical substances in the aquatic environment has been recognized as an emerging environmental issue as it can cause undesirable effects on the ecosystem and human health. The current wastewater treatment methods are not designed to treat municipal wastewater from the contamination of various pharmaceutical substances. READ MORE

  5. 20. Filamentous Fungi as a Sustainable Ingredient for Fish Feed

    Author : Sajjad Karimi; José Teixeira; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; compound feed; edible filamentous fungi; essential amino acids; low-value substrates; polyunsaturated fatty acids; protein sources; submerged cultivation; thin stillage; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Abstract : Limited feed ingredients hinder aquaculture’s rapid growth. Current unsustainable fish feeding practices use ingredients like fishmeal and soybean meal, which could be directly consumed for as human food. This demands novel alternatives for fish nutrition. READ MORE
