Bioconversion of Ferulic Acid into Vanillic

Bioconversion of ferulic acid obtained from wheat bran into vanillin

In this work the possibility of producing vanillin through microbial bioconversion from ferulic acid obtained from the enzymatic hydrolysis of wheat bran has been explored. The biocatalyst employed was Escherichia coli JM109/pBB1, a recombinant strain containing the genes from Pseudomonas fluorescens BF13 for the transformation of ferulic acid into vanillin. The substrate of the bioconversion, ...

Extraction of Ferulic Acid from Agro-industrial Wastes and Evaluation of Bioconversion of Ferulic Acid to Vanillin by Streptomyces Setonii

Several agro-industrial wastes (as chestnut and pistachio shells, grass, leaf fruit, vine leaf, and, red and white grape stems) were evaluated to ferulic acid extraction. The chemical analysis of these raw materials shows a high content of xylan in pistachio shells (33%), following the biorefinery concept, this fraction can be used in xylitol manufacture. The lignocellulosic materials were subm...

Vanillic acid in polar ice cores

This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Climate of the Past (CP). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in CP if available. Abstract Biomass burning generates a wide range of organic compounds that are transported via aerosols to the polar ice sheets. Vanillic acid is a product of conifer lignin combustion , which has previously been observed in laboratory and amb...

Table Olive Fermentation Using Starter Cultures with Multifunctional Potential

Table olives are one of the most popular plant-derived fermented products. Their enhanced nutritional value due to the presence of phenolic compounds and monounsaturated fatty acids makes olives an important food commodity of the Mediterranean diet. However, despite its economic significance, table olive fermentation is mainly craft-based and empirically driven by the autochthonous microbiota o...
