Hemicellulose hydrolysis catalysed by solid acids [PDF]
Depolymerising hemicellulose into platform sugar molecules is a key step in developing the concept of an integrated biorefinery. This reaction is traditionally catalysed by either enzymes or homogeneous mineral acids.

We conducted hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of soybean oil, soy protein, microcrystalline cellulose, xylose, and lignin as individual compounds and binary, ternary, quaternary, and quinary mixtures at 350 °C for 30 min. The 34.5 wt % biocrude yield from

Engineering xylose metabolism in thraustochytrid T18
Background Thraustochytrids are heterotrophic, oleaginous, marine protists with a significant potential for biofuel production. High-value co-products can off-set production costs; however, the cost of raw materials, and in particular carbon, is a major ...

Role of xylose from acidic hydrolysates of agave bagasse during biohydrogen production
This study compares the H2 production from glucose, xylose, and acidic hydrolysates of Agave tequilana bagasse as substrates. The fermentation was performed in a granular sludge reactor operated in two phases: (1) model substrates (glucose and xylose ...

Active Site Mapping of Xylan-Deconstructing Enzymes with Arabinoxylan Oligosaccharides Produced by Automated Glycan Assembly [PDF]
Xylan-degrading enzymes are crucial for the deconstruction of hemicellulosic biomass, making the hydrolysis products available for various industrial applications such as the production of biofuel.

d-xylose accelerated death of pentose metabolizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Rapid and effective consumption of d-xylose by Saccharomyces cerevisiae is essential for cost-efficient cellulosic bioethanol production. Hence, heterologous d-xylose metabolic pathways have been introduced into S. cerevisiae.

Phase resetting reveals network dynamics underlying a bacterial cell cycle [PDF]
Genomic and proteomic methods yield networks of biological regulatory interactions but do not provide direct insight into how those interactions are organized into functional modules, or how information flows from one module to another.
