Development of a novel ultrasound- assisted alkali pretreatment strategy for the production of bioethanol and xylanases from chili post harvest residue

A novel ultrasound-assisted alkali pretreatment strategy was developed which could effectively remove lignin and hemicelluloses and improve the sugar yield from chili post harvest residue. Operational parameters that affect the pretreatment efficiency were ...

Molecular Imaging of Biopolymers Enabled by Electrospray-Ion Beam Deposition

Sabine Abb

Biomolecular functional complexes often serve as inspiration for the development of artificial molecular nanostructures. The functionality of the biomolecular structures is based on complex and adaptable binding motifs that have evolved over billions of ye ...

Impaired SUMOylation of nuclear receptor LRH-1 promotes nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Kristina Schoonjans, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Hadrien Charles Edouard Demagny, Dongryeol Ryu, Xu Wang, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer, Pan Xu

Hepatic steatosis is caused by metabolic imbalances that could be explained in part by an increase in de novo lipogenesis that results from increased sterol element binding protein 1 (SREBP-1) activity. The nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) ...

Multimodal stimulus coding by a gustatory sensory neuron in Drosophila larvae

Philippe Renaud

Accurate perception of taste information is crucial for animal survival. In adult Drosophila, gustatory receptor neurons (GRNs) perceive chemical stimuli of one specific gustatory modality associated with a stereotyped behavioural response, such as aversio ...

Toward Quantitative Measurements of Enzyme Kinetics by Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Daniel Abergel

Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) experiments enabled us to study the kinetics of the enzymatic phosphorylation reaction of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) by hexokinase (HK), with or without the presence of an excess of G6P, which ...

Nonenzymatic Sugar Production from Biomass Using Biomass-Derived gamma-Valerolactone

Jeremy Luterbacher

Widespread production of biomass-derived fuels and chemicals will require cost-effective processes for breaking down cellulose and hemicellulose into their constituent sugars. Here, we report laboratory-scale production of soluble carbohydrates from corn s ...

Synthesis and parameter optimization of a combined sugar and ethanol production process integrated with a CHP system

François Maréchal, Adriano Viana Ensinas

The combined sugar and ethanol production process from sugar cane is a paradigmatic application for energy integration strategies because of the high number of hot and cold streams involved, the external hot utility requirement at two temperature levels fo ...

Pretreatment of Douglas fir wood biomass for improving saccharification efficiencies

Edgard Gnansounou, Juan David Villegas Gomez, Simone Chiesa, Rajeev Kumar Sukumaran

The main aim of this study was to analyze dilute acid pretreatment for the Douglas fir wood in order to improve the efficiency of hydrolysis with an ultimate aim to produce bioethanol. Compositional analysis of the untreated Douglas fir biomass revealed th ...
