Hevea brasiliensis seeds: A novel sustainable feedstock for ethanol production

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Chemistry, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 682-695, October 2026.
Abstract The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is cultivated on a large scale mainly for the extraction of latex in Brazil and Southeast Asia, also generating large quantities of seeds. These seeds currently do not have large‐scale applications and may thus be considered as a residue.

Synergistic Action of Rhizopus oryzae Lipase and Fusarium oxysporum Cutinase in the Enzymatic Transesterification of a High‐Free Fatty Acid Oil

open access: yesChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
A bienzymatic system of Rhizopus oryzae lipase and Fusarium oxysporum cutinase was optimized for the transesterification of high‐free fatty acid waste oil into biodiesel. Synergistic enzyme action, immobilization‐enabled reusability, and successful 100 mL scale‐up highlight the industrial potential of the suggested biocatalytic approach.

Enhancing the nutritional profile of de‐oiled rice bran through solid‐state fermentation with Aspergillus oryzae

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 435-443, September 2026.
Abstract An experiment was conducted to explore the impact of fermenting de‐oiled rice bran (DORB) with Aspergillus oryzae on its nutrient composition and anti‐nutritional factors. DORB was inoculated with 7‐day‐old A. oryzae culture grown on potato dextrose agar. The experiment was conducted in triplicate for 120 h, with samples collected at 0, 24, 48,

Enzymatic transesterification of Jatropha oil [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2009
Abstract Background Transesterification of Jatropha oil was carried out in t-butanol solvent using immobilized lipase from Enterobacter aerogenes. The presence of t-butanol significantly reduced the negative effects caused by both methanol and glycerol. The effects of various reaction parameters on transesterification
