Fungal pretreatment of lignocellulose by Phanerochaete chrysosporium to produce ethanol from rice straw.

13 Oct 2009 Phanerochaete chrysosporium is a wood-rot fungus that is capable of degrading lignin via its lignolytic system. In this study, an environmentally friendly fungal pretreatment process that produces less inhibitory substances than conventional methods ... Read more...

Plasmid DNA production combining antibiotic-free selection, inducible high yield fermentation, and novel autolytic purification.

13 Oct 2009 DNA vaccines and gene medicines, derived from bacterial plasmids, are emerging as an important new class of pharmaceuticals. However, the challenges of performing cell lysis processes for plasmid DNA purification at an industrial scale are well ... Read more...

Genotoxicity studies of ubidecarenone (coenzyme Q10) manufactured by bacteria fermentation.

29 Sep 2009 Ubidecarenone (coenzyme Q10) has been widely used as a complementary therapy in heart failure and as a dietary supplement for over two decades. Ubidecarenone is manufactured by organic synthesis, yeast (non-Saccharomyces cerevisiae) fermentation, or ... Read more...
