Ethanol Production from High Solids Loading of Alkali-Pretreated Sugarcane Bagasse with an SSF Process

BioResources, 2014
A fed-batch process and high-temperature simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process were investigated to obtain high sugar yield and ethanol concentration.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Graph Neural Network–Based State-of-Health Estimation Applying Interpretable Distribution of Relaxation Times Features Extracted From Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy

International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems
Multiple methods have been used for estimating the state-of-health (SOH) of a lithium-ion battery (LIB), but rarely do we see methods that compute the SOH and provide a physical interpretation of the battery.

Rapid mapping of alloy surface phase diagrams via Bayesian evolutionary multitasking

npj Computational Materials, 2023
Surface phase diagrams (SPDs) are essential for understanding the dependence of surface chemistry on reaction condition. For multi-component systems such as metal alloys, the derivation of such diagrams often relies on separate first-principles global ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Statistical Mechanics of Solar Energy Conversion

, 1999
The chapter deals with the general class of processes in which solar energy is absorbed and in which the absorbed energy is converted in multistage processes until it eventually is in a storable form.

Numerical Study on Hydrodynamic Performance of a New Semi-Submersible Aquaculture Platform

Applied Sciences, 2023
To address the limitations of traditional aquaculture cages, such as poor performance in offshore environments, challenges in energy supply, and the inability to integrate modern farming facilities, a new semi-submersible aquaculture platform has been ...
