A poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) accumulating, Gram positive Bacillus thuringiensis R1 was isolated from the soil samples. The growth of the organism and PHB accumulation in the presence of different carbon sources was studied. While maximum dry cell mass accumulation (3.90 to 4.11g/L) resulted in the presence of glycerol (1% v/v), least biomass formation (1.28g/L) was in the presence of 1%(v/v) ...

FIGURE 1 Scheme of a batch separation process. The resin is made by crosslinking divinyl benzene (DVB) with a polystyrene matrix, which contains sulphoriic groups for cation attachment. The resinsare manufactured as beads which, when packed in a column, provide interstitial spaces for the passage of large molecules. Generally, non-ionised smaller moleculessuch as sucrose, glucose and fructosear...

Sugar beet is a species of the Chenopodiaceae family. It is an important sugar crop that supplies approximately 35% of the sugar in the world. Sugar beet M14 line is a unique germplasm that contains genetic materials from Beta vulgaris L. and Beta corolliflora Zoss. And exhibits tolerance to salt stress. In this review, we have summarized OMICS technologies and applications in sugar beet includ...

■ 2. Section 180. 628 is amended as follows: ■ i. Add alphabetically tolerances for beet, sugar, molasses; berry large shrub/ tree, subgroup 13–07C; berry, low growing, subgroup at 13–07G; onion, bulb, subgroup 3–07A; tea, dried; Ti, leaves; Ti, root; vegetable, leaves of root and tuber, group 2; vegetable, root and tuber, group 1; to the table in paragraph (a); ■ ii. Revise the tolerances for ...

Biosurfactants, surface-active amphiphilic compounds, despite having a wide range of applications, have a high cost of production, which severely restricts their use. For cheaper production of biosurfactant, we investigated the potential of the indigenously isolated biosurfactant producing organism, Bacillus subtilis ANR 88, to grow on different cheap carbon sources (molasses, whey, and extract...

Thick juice (also regarded as syrup) is an intermediate product of sugar processing. It is cheaper than processed sugar and is mainly composed of sucrose. Sucrose is a preferred carbon source of Corynebacterium glutamicum, a workhorse of biotechnology used for million-ton-scale amino acid production. Here, it is shown for C. glutamicum that sugar beet thick juice led to higher growth rates and ...
