Xylitol is in a class of substances called “polyols,” more commonly known assugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols are neither sugar nor alcohol, but have a chemical structure that has similarities of both sugar and alcohol (I won’t bore you with anymore chemistry). There are a number of other ...
PURPOSE: Provided is a method for processing a squid into strips which characteristically removes a fish smell, improves preservability and uses xylitol instead of sugar and preservative. Therefore, xylitol added-squid strips prevent tooth decay and have improved preservability without using any ...
Overall ethanol production should increase since less carbon is being diverted to glycerol and xylitol by-products. Molecular and physiological analyses of the evolved isolate TMB3130 revealed that improved transport capacity and initial sugar metabolism contributed to the increased co-utilization of xylose...
The biosynthesis of BC is catalyzed by multi-enzymes including glucokinase, phosphoglucomutase, UDP-glucose phosphorylase, and cellulose synthase with uridine diphosphoglucose being the primary sugar nucleotide precursor. When the fermentation media contains hexoses and three-carbon compounds (e.g., glycerol...
Due to higher xylitol and glycerol production by 424A (data not shown), we hypothesized that use of the xylose isomerase pathway instead of the xylose reductase-xylitol dehydrogenase pathway was a factor for the higher ethanol production per gram of sugar consumed observed with Y128 and 8b [22...
One unit of endoxylanase is defined as “the amount of enzyme that releases 1.0 µmol of reducing sugar (as xylose equivalent) per minute under the defined assay conditions”. The equation obtained from a standard curve of xylose [60]: ...
[27] constructed the first recombinantS. cerevisiaestrain demonstrating high activity of prokaryotic XI, using codon-optimizedXylAgene fromClostridium phytofermentans.This enzyme was much less inhibited by xylitol compared to the enzyme fromPiromyces. Nevertheless, the rate of D-xylose consumption and ...
polyols having a number average molecular weight in the range of 150-4000 g/mol, 150-1500 g/mol, or 150-750 g/mol), or a combination thereof. Exemplary polyols further include aliphatic polyol, such as glycerol, trimethylolpropane, and also sugar alcohol, such as erythritol, xylitol, mannito...
impairment of perception, memory and comprehension, deceased sensatory response, increased reaction times, reduced visual acuity, impaired balance, lack of sensory-motor coordination, and drowsiness. At BAC of 0.18-0.3, individuals often become confused, disorientated, have mental confusion, dizziness an...
The present invention relates to a method for the production of biofuels and food co-products which, thanks to the addition of microalgae culture extracts, optimizes the production of biofuel, in terms of time and yield, and improves the protein composition of its co-products useful in the foo...
