Journal ArticleDOI

Production and properties of the highly efficient raw starch digesting α-amylase from a Bacillus licheniformis ATCC 9945a

TL;DR: The properties of the purified α-amylase proved its high efficacy for digesting diverse raw starches below gelatinization temperature and, hence, its potential commercial value to use as an industrial enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dilute acid hydrolysis of wheat straw hemicellulose at moderate temperature: a simplified kinetic model.

TL;DR: The influence of acid concentration was studied and the kinetics of the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis has been modeled suggesting a two-consecutive reactions mechanism, useful to explain the different behavior of the concentration of the two main sugars produced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens laccase--from soil bacteria to recombinant enzyme for wastewater decolorization.

TL;DR: A new laccase gene from the strain with highest temperature optimum, namely Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 12B was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli and detected in solution, while water insoluble aggregate, presumably dye polymer is formed retaining blue color.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetic modeling of the enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated cellulose

TL;DR: The production of sugars by the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose is a two‐step process that includes conversion of the intermediate cellobiose to glucose by β‐glucosidase, which showed maximum activity at pH 4.8.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidencing the role of lactose permease in IPTG uptake by Escherichia coli in fed-batch high cell density cultures.

TL;DR: Comparison of the distribution profiles of IPTG of both strains in fed-batch fermentations showed that lac-permease is crucially involved in IPTG uptake, whereas in the absence of the transporter, apparently IPTG only diffuses, while in the presence of lac- permease, the inducer accumulates in the cytoplasm at higher rates emphasizing the significant contribution of the permease-mediated transport.
