It is now believed that if we can reproduce these secondary metabolites using biotechnology and integrate them into skincare and cosmetics, then they could have marvellous anti-aging and regenerative effects on human skin.6Resveratrol is one such secondary metabolite, it is commonly produced by passion fruit, grapes and blueberries.7 It is a well-studied metabolite since it is produced to protect ...
Upstream Process OptimizationUpstream process optimization is used for microbial fermentation to enhance the strains' manufacturing efficiency and capacity. It refers to the selection of microbial hosts (such as bacteria and fungi), strain improvement, and strain breeding. ...
Glycerol is a promising feedstock for microbial cultivation and production of 1,3 propanediol (1,3 PDO). Here we report a newly isolated bacterial strain BA11 from soil, capable of fermenting glycerol to 1,3 PDO, and has been identified to be a strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Strain BA11 was fast growing showing peak 1,3 PDO production in 6 h of ...
