Journal ArticleDOI
Fermented Fruits and Vegetables of Asia: A Potential Source of Probiotics
TL;DR: This review aims to describe some important Asian fermented fruits and vegetables and their significance as a potential source of probiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biocontrol and other beneficial activities of Bacillus subtilis isolated from cowdung microflora.
Manas R. Swain,Ramesh C. Ray +1 more
TL;DR: Bacillus subtilis strains isolated from cowdung had several beneficial attributes, which included biocontrol, plant growth promotion, sulphur (S) oxidation, phosphorus (P) solubilization and production of industrially important enzymes (amylase and cellulase).
Journal Article
Indole-3-acetic acid production and effect on sprouting of yam (Dioscorea rotundata L.) minisetts by Bacillus subtilis isolated from culturable cowdung microflora.
TL;DR: Bacillus subtilis strains isolated from culturable cowdung microflora investigated for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production in nutrient broth (NB) significantly enhanced IAA production and L-tryptophan was the precursor for IAA biosynthesis by these bacterial strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioethanol production from mahula (Madhuca latifolia L.) flowers by solid-state fermentation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the production of ethanol from mahula (Madhuca latifolia L.) flowers by Saccharomyces cerevisiae in solid-state fermentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethanol fermentation of mahula (Madhuca latifolia L.) flowers using free and immobilized yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
TL;DR: There is a growing interest to find alternate bioresources for production of ethanol, apart from cane/sugar beet molasses and starchy crops like sweet sorghum, cassava and sweet potato, and mahula is a forest tree abundantly available in the Indian subcontinent and its flowers are very rich in fermentable sugars.
