The filamentous fungus Mucor circinelloides URM 4182 was tested to determine its ability produce single-cell oil suitable for obtaining biodiesel. Cell growth and lipid accumulation were investigated in a medium containing glucose as the main carbon source. A microwave-assisted ethanol extraction technique (microwave power ⩽200 W, 50-60 °C) established applied from fungal hyphae obtain high concentration (44%wt) of dry biomass, which considerably higher than quantity obtained by classical...
Citrus fruit production generates substantial by-products, primarily from juice processing, which represent significant environmental and economic challenges. However, these residues, rich in polysaccharides, flavonoids, essential oils, enzymes, offer an untapped resource for biotechnological applications. This review explores the potential of citrus by-products as substrates enzyme production, focusing on key industrial enzymes such cellulases, pectinases, xylanases, ligninases, lipases,...
The use of agro-industrial by-products and processing residues, which are rich in carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, the production lipases allows sustainable these reducing environmental impacts. In this study, immersion water lentils, soybeans, textured soy protein was evaluated as carbon nitrogen sources whole-cell lipases, resulting biomass used hydrolysis residual soybean oil with conventional heating ultrasound. results showed that best culture medium one 50% protein, reaching values...
The production of ethanol from sugarcane or molasses generates vinasse, a residue rich in organic matter and minerals. Vinasse is often used fertilization irrigation practices, which may be linked to negative environmental outcomes if excess applied. Herein, we introduce novel alternative the treatment vinasse promoting reduction Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) levels, phenolic compounds, its mineral content through coupling ozone treatment, anaerobic digestion, aerobic growth fungi. able...
The objective of this work was to select the most suitable procedure immobilize lipase from Penicillium camembertii (Lipase G). Different techniques and supports were evaluated, including physical adsorption on hydrophobic octyl-agarose, poly(hydroxybutyrate) Amberlite resin XAD-4; ionic anionic exchange MANAE-agarose covalent attachment glyoxyl-agarose, cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, MANAE-agarose-glutaraldehyde, epoxy-silica-polyvinyl alcohol composite. Among tested protocols, highest...
Single cell oil (SCO) was produced from enzymatically hydrolysed sugarcane bagasse by Mucor circinelloides. The fungus cultured in the hydrolysate medium rich glucose and xylose being able to assimilate both sugars simultaneously, attaining satisfactory values of lipid accumulation (25 wt%). main concepts addressed herein were utilization these lipids for production (i) ethyl esters fuel grade, (ii) concentrate polyunsaturated fatty acids nutraceutical applications. It noticed that fungal...
Abstract Microalgae are a rich source of bioactive compounds such as pigments, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and other substances interest. Thus, given the possible variety products that can be obtained from them, it is important to determine their biochemical composition, taking into consideration species cultivation conditions, so they used feedstock in biorefineries, with aim using all biomass biorefining processes increasing its economic viability. This work aimed characterize...
