1. Improving the Response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to Lignocellulosic Hydrolysate Inhibitors in Ethanolic Fermentation
Sammanfattning : The production of ethanol based on lignocellulosic biomass requires the fermentation of a hydrolysate containing hexose and pentose sugars in an inhibitory environment. In fact, the lignocellulosic hydrolysate obtained from pretreatment and hydrolysis of the raw material contains a variety of inhibitory compounds, including (i) the furaldehydes 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (HMF) and 2-furaldehyde (furfural), (ii) weak acids (e.

2. Identification and characterization of novel mammalian alcohol dehydrogenases
Sammanfattning : The vertebrate medium chain alcohol dehydrogenases are dimeric zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible oxidation/reduction of alcohols/aldehydes using NAD+/NADH as coenzyme. In mammals, six classes of ADH have been defined (ADH1-ADH6) whereof five have been identified in humans. LÄS MER
3. Monitoring of Cellular Dynamics with Focus on Electrochemical Detection Techniques
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents work in two main areas of focus, the development of electroanalytical techniques to monitor the dynamics of cellular processes as well as design and fabrication of microelectrode chips for electrochemical detection as well as a prototype microfluidic system to be used for cell analysis and culturing. The electrochemically monitored cellular parameters were the cellular redox environment (CRE), cell adhesion and exocytosis. LÄS MER
4. Efficient Conversion of Lignocellulose Hydrolysates- Yeast Tolerance and Redox Metabolism
Sammanfattning : The fermentation of lignocellulose hydrolysates by Saccharomyces cerevisiae for ethanol production was investigated. An important problem for the successful conversion of these hydrolysates is that they often are inhibitory. LÄS MER
5. Improving Ethanol Production from Lignocellulose Hydrolyzates: Fed-batch Fermentation, Yeast Cultivation and Strain Development for Increased Tolerance
Sammanfattning : Ethanol production by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae from dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolyzate was studied with the aim to improve fuel ethanol production. Specifically, the problem of inhibition was addressed. LÄS MER
