Efficient production of dihydroxyacetone from glycerol over a Pt/CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3/SBA-16 catalyst

Journal of Asian Ceramic Societies, 2018
A Pt/CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3/SBA-16 catalyst was prepared to realize highly selective oxidation of glycerol to produce dihydroxyacetone (DHA). An active oxygen supply from the CeO2-ZrO2-Bi2O3 promoter effectively oxidized glycerol to produce DHA under moderate ...

Exclusive localization in peroxisomes of dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyltransferase and alkyl-dihydroxyacetone phosphate synthase in rat liver.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
Dihydroxyacetone phosphate acyl transferase (DHAP-AT), alkyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate synthase (alkyl-DHAP-synthase), and glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase (GPAT) activities were investigated under optimal assay conditions using highly purified ...

Facile syntheses of acyl dihydroxyacetone phosphates and lysophosphatidic acids having different acyl groups

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
In this study, we report novel and simple chemical syntheses of acyl dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and 1-acyl glycero-3-phosphate [lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)], key intermediaries in the formation of glycerolipids containing ester and ether bonds ...

Hyperpolarized Dihydroxyacetone Is a Sensitive Probe of Hepatic Gluconeogenic State

Metabolites, 2021
Type II diabetes and pre-diabetes are widely prevalent among adults. Elevated serum glucose levels are commonly treated by targeting hepatic gluconeogenesis for downregulation. However, direct measurement of hepatic gluconeogenic capacity is accomplished

High-Yield Production of Dihydroxyacetone from Crude Glycerol in Fed-Batch Cultures of Gluconobacter oxydans

Molecules
The strain Gluconobacter oxydans LMG 1385 was used for the bioconversion of crude glycerol to dihydroxyacetone. The suitability of fed-batch cultures for the production of dihydroxyacetone was determined, and the influence of the pH of the culture medium

Utilization of a waste glycerol fraction using and reusing immobilized Gluconobacter oxydans ATCC 621 cell extract

Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2017
Background: Depletion of petroleum resources has enforced the search for alternative sources of renewable energy. Introduction of biofuels into the market was expected to become a solution to this disadvantageous situation.

Determining virus-host interactions and glycerol metabolism profiles in geographically diverse solar salterns with metagenomics [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Solar salterns are excellent model ecosystems for studying virus-microbial interactions because of their low microbial diversity, environmental stability, and high viral density.

Dihydroxyacetone Phosphate Reductase in Plants [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1988
Two forms of dihydroxyacetone phosphate reductase are present in spinach, soybean, pea, and mesophyll cells of corn leaves. An improved homogenizing medium was developed to measure this activity. The enzyme was detectable only after dialysis of the 35 to 70% saturated (NH(4))(2)SO(4) fraction and the two forms were separated by chromatography on either
