nd experiment, air flow rate 0.3 vvm) with a maximum xylitol production (36.0gm/l) after 59h as compared with that obtained in the 1 st experiment (30.99 g/L) after 66 h under relatively less oxygen limited condition (air flow rate 1.5 vvm). Increasing the initial xylose concentration from 45.5 g/L in the 2 nd experiment to 96.9 g/L in the 3 rd experiment led to a great decrease in the xylitol accumulation rate (Qp) from 0.506 to 0.134 g/L, xylitol yield coefficient (Yp/s) from 0.704 to 0.180 g…

Bioprocess optimization of glutathione production by Saccharomyces boulardii: biochemical characterization of glutathione peroxidase

The well-known probiotic GRAS Saccharomyces boulardii (CNCM I-745) was used for the first time to produce glutathione (GSH) and the two rate-limiting genes of GSH biosynthesis “γ-glutamyl cysteine synthetase (G SH1 and GSH2)” were amplified and sequenced to validate the G SH biosynthetic potency.

Xylitol production from lignocellulosic pentosans using Kluyveromyces marxianus: kinetic modelling of yeast growth and fermentation

Kinetics of xylitol production from sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate by Kluyveromyces marxianus IIPE453t was modelled and sensitivity analysis demonstrated that xylose bioconversion linked to XRKS activity was the principal factor governing xylanol production kinetics.
