Enrichment of microbial community generating electricity using a fuel-cell-type electrochemical cell
A fuel cell was used to enrich a microbial consortium generating electricity, using organic wastewater as the fuel. Within 30 days of enrichment the maximum current of 0.2 mA was generated with a resistance o...

Degradation of an endocrine disrupting chemical, DEHP [di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate], by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. pisi cutinase
The efficiency of two lypolytic enzymes (fungal cutinase, yeast esterase) in the degradation of di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) was investigated. The DEHP-degradation rate of fungal cutinase was surprising...

Reductive effect of H2 uptake and poly-β-hydroxybutyrate formation on nitrogenase-mediated H2 accumulation of Rhodobacter sphaeroides according to light intensity
Nitrogenase-mediated H2 accumulation of Rhodobacter sphaeroides under photoheterotrophic conditions is reduced directly by the hydrogenase activity catalyzing H2 uptake and indirectly by energy-demanding metabol...

Monitoring the denitrification of wastewater containing high concentrations of nitrate with methanol in a sulfur-packed reactor
Biological denitrification of high nitrate-containing wastewater was examined in a sulfur-packed column using a smaller amount of methanol than required stoichiometrically for heterotrophic denitrification. I...

Enhanced expression of tandem multimers of the antimicrobial peptide buforin II in Escherichia coli by the DEAD-box protein and trxB mutant
The tandem multimeric expression of various peptides has been explored by many researchers. However, expression levels have usually not been proportional to the degree of multimerization. To increase the expr...

Xylanase production in solid state fermentation by Aspergillus niger mutant using statistical experimental designs
The initial moisture content, cultivation time, inoculum size and concentration of basal medium were optimized in solid state fermentation (SSF) for the production of xylanase by an Aspergillus niger mutant usin...

Improved process for production of recombinant yeast-derived monomeric human G-CSF
The human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (hG-CSF) was efficiently secreted at high levels in fed-batch cultures of recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, the secreted recombinant hG-CSF (rhG-CSF) ...

Growth-associated synthesis of recombinant human glucagon and human growth hormone in high-cell-density cultures of Escherichia coli
Synthesis of two recombinant proteins (human glucagon and human growth hormone) was investigated in fed-batch cultures at high cell concentrations of recombinant Escherichia coli. The glucose-limited growth was a...

Dynamics of l-valine in relation to the production of cyclosporin A by Tolypocladium inflatum
We report the kinetics of endogenous l-valine in the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum, in an effort to understand the enhancing effect of externally supplemented l-valine on the production of the immunosuppressant c...
