Global climate change mitigation policies call for increasing use of biomass fuels as renewable substitutes to fossil energy resources. Quantified targets for biofuels introduction in to the market exist in the United States, the European Union, and a numb ...
A review. This research group is working towards understanding the fundamental physicochem. mechanisms of trace metal biouptake by aquatic microorganisms in natural systems. Research is currently focused on identifying under what conditions uptake fluxes a ...
Crabtree neg. organisms such as Kluyveromyces, Pichia, Hansenula and Candida, are used to make selected org. products such as lactic acid. The organisms are cultured in a first culture medium that includes glucose, under conditions that promote cellular re ...
The dynamic behavior of a continuous culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae subjected to a sudden increase in the diln. rate has been successfully modelled for anaerobic growth on glucose, and for aerobic growth on acetate, on ethanol, and on glucose. The cat ...
At Hot Creek in California, geothermally derived arsenite is rapidly oxidized to arsenate. This process is mediated by microorganisms colonizing the surfaces of submerged aquatic macrophytes in the creek. Here we describe a multifaceted approach to charact ...
At high growth rates, the biomass yield of baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) decreases due to the prodn. of ethanol. For this reason, it is std. industrial practice to use a fed-batch process whereby the specific growth rate, m, is fixed at a level ...

Batch and continuous 2-stage cultures were conducted to det. the effect of yeast ext. (YE) on the homolactic fermn. of whey permeate by L. helveticus. Supplementation with YE had a significant effect on lactic acid concn., volumetric productivity, and subs ...
The prodn. of lactic acid in a cell-recycle reactor was investigated. Studies were conducted with L. helveticus on a supplemented whey permeate medium. At 42 Deg and pH 5.5, the biomass was kept const. at 21.3 g/L. The volumetric lactic acid productivity w ...
The effect of diln. rate on the prodn. of lactic acid from whey permeate by L. helveticus was investigated. In the 1st chemostat of a 2-stage system, total conversion (98.1%) and max. lactic acid concn. (43.7 g/L) were obtained at a diln. rate (D1tot) of 0 ...
