Lignocellulose solubilization and conversion by extremely thermophilic Caldicellulosiruptor bescii improves by maintaining metabolic activity
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Biotechnology and Bioengineering"
DOI: 10.1002/bit.26993
Abstract: The extreme thermophile Caldicellulosiruptor bescii solubilizes and metabolizes the carbohydrate content of lignocellulose, a process that ultimately ceases because of biomass recalcitrance, accumulation of fermentation products, inhibition by lignin moieties, and reduction of metabolic activity.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/nbm.4781
Abstract: Evidence mounts that the steady‐state cellular water efflux (unidirectional) first‐order rate constant (kio [s−1]) magnitude reflects the ongoing, cellular metabolic rate of the cytolemmal Na+, K+‐ATPase (NKA), cMRNKA (pmol [ATP consumed by NKA]/s/cell), perhaps biology's… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00394-017-1572-2
Abstract: PurposeOlive pomace is a major waste product of olive oil production but remains rich in polyphenols and fibres. We measured the potential of an olive pomace-enriched biscuit formulation delivering 17.1 ± 4.01 mg/100 g of hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives,… read more here.
