India is amongst the largest banana (Musa acuminata) producing countries and thus banana pseudo stem is commonly available agricultural waste to be used as lignocellulosic substrate. Present study focuses on exploitation of banana pseudo stem as a source for bioethanol production from the sugars released due to different chemical and biological pretreatments. Two fungal strains Aspergillus elli...

Sugarcane bagasse (SCB), one of the major lignocellulosic agro-industrial waste products, was used as a substrate for biosynthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) by halophilic archaea. Among the various wild-type halophilic archaeal strains screened, Halogeometricum borinquense strain E3 showed better growth and PHA accumulation as compared to Haloferaxvolcanii strain BBK2, Haloarcula japonica ...

Innovative and decentralized biorefineries are needed in urban areas to contribute local resource efficiency. In this case study a biorefinery (waste-to-resource-unit, W2RU) is introduced for bioconversion of food waste using heterotrophic microalgae protein-rich biomass, simultaneous extraction high-value chemicals pigments (e.g., astaxanthin, β-carotene, lycopene, lutein, or riboflavin), vita...

About 20 per cent of the live weight freshwater fish is visceral mass a rich source protein, lipids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, soluble vitamins, phospholipids etc having very great agro industrial products. Any scientific technique that uses strong squanders coming about because harvesting by recuperating biomolecules like lipids and proteins brings extra income as well helps to reduce dumpi...

The objective of this work is to provide a theoretical basis for preparing peanut antioxidant hydrolysate in order to improve its antioxidant activities. Therefore, response surface methodology (RSM) based on the Box-Behnken design was used to optimize ultrasonic-assisted enzymolysis for the purpose of preparing peanut antioxidant hydrolysate. Results indicated that the DPPH free radical scaven...

biological packaging material based on obtained proteins from fish waste, are biopolymers that have the capability of biodegradable film formation. thus, purpose of this research is to study and investigate some of films’ physical features made from trout fish myofibril protein. the film forming solution containing 1.5%, 2% and 2.5%(w/v)myofibril protein isolate of 100ml solution and glycerol a...

The whitefish industry generates a huge amount of rest raw material, which is currently wasted or underutilized in the production low-value products such as animal feed. While fish muscle primary product use for human consumption, material has great potential source protein and bioactive peptides food ingredients nutraceuticals. Enzymatic hydrolysis biotechnological processing method that can b...
