- 1From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground It is widely recognised that fast, effective hydrolysis of pretreated lignocellulosic substrates requires the synergistic action of multiple types of hydrolytic and some non-hydrolytic proteins. However,...
- 2From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground n-Butanol and isobutanol produced from biomass-derived sugars are promising renewable transport fuels and solvents. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been engineered for butanol production, but its high butanol...
- 3From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe development of inhibitor-tolerant ethanologenic yeast is one of the most significant challenges facing bio-ethanol production. Adaptation of Pichia stipitis to inhibitors is one of the most efficient ways for...
- 4From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Despite decades of work and billions of dollars of investments in laboratory and pilot plant projects, commercial production of cellulosic ethanol is only now beginning to emerge. Because of: (1)high...
- 5From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Enzyme recycling is a method to reduce the production costs for advanced bioethanol by lowering the overall use of enzymes. Commercial cellulase preparations consist of many different enzymes that are...
- 6From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is a surface sensitive mass spectrometry technique with potential strengths as a method for detecting enzymatic activity on solid materials. In...
- 7From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Oils produced by microalgae are precursors to biodiesel. To achieve a profitable production of biodiesel from microalgae, identification of factors governing oil synthesis and turnover is desirable. The...
- 8From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the most promising renewable and clean energy resources to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. However, the resistance to accessibility of...
- 9From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Aspergillus fumigatus Z5 has a strong ability to decompose lignocellulose biomass, and its extracellular protein secretion has been reported in earlier studies employing traditional techniques. However, a...
- 10From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground The investigation of structural organisation in lignocellulose materials is important to understand changes in cellulase accessibility and reactivity resulting from hydrothermal deconstruction, to allow...
- 11From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground While most resources in biofuels were directed towards implementing bioethanol programs, 1-propanol has recently received attention as a promising alternative biofuel. Nevertheless, no microorganism has...
- 12From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground [alpha]-Pinene is an important natural product that is widely used in flavorings, fragrances, medicines, fine chemicals and high-density renewable fuels. Currently, [alpha]-Pinene used in industry is...
- 13From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Despite its semi-commercial status, ethanol production from lignocellulosics presents many complexities not yet fully solved. Since the pretreatment stage has been recognized as a complex and...
- 14From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Acetoin is an important bio-based platform chemical. However, it is usually existed as a minor byproduct of 2,3-butanediol fermentation in bacteria. Results The present study reports introducing an...
- 15From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground The inevitable depletion of fossil fuels has resulted in an increasing worldwide interest in exploring alternative and sustainable energy sources. Lignocellulose, which is the most abundant biomass on...
- 16From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Lignocellulosic biomass, such as corn stover, is a potential raw material for ethanol production. One step in the process of producing ethanol from lignocellulose is enzymatic hydrolysis, which produces...
- 17From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedSwitchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is a C.sub.4 perennial warm season grass indigenous to the North American tallgrass prairie. A number of its natural and agronomic traits, including adaptation to a wide geographical...
- 18From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Identifying new high-performance enzymes or enzyme complexes to enhance biomass degradation is the key for the development of cost-effective processes for ethanol production. Irpex lacteus is an efficient...
- 19From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Glycerol has attracted attention as a carbon source for microbial production processes due to the large amounts of crude glycerol waste resulting from biodiesel production. The current knowledge about the...
- 20From: Biotechnology for Biofuels. (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Second-generation biofuels are generally produced from the polysaccharides in the lignocellulosic plant biomass, mainly cellulose. However, because cellulose is embedded in a matrix of other...
