Using non-enzymatic chemistry to influence microbial metabolism

non-corrective approach to pronunciation

the aim of this study has been to find answers for the following questions: 1. what is the effect of immediate correction on students pronunciation errors? 2. what would be the effect of teaching the more rgular patterns of english pronunciation? 3. is there any significant difference between the two methods of dealing with pronuciation errore, i. e., correction and the teaching of the regular ...

Microbial Chemistry

The widespread role of non-enzymatic reactions in cellular metabolism.

Enzymes shape cellular metabolism, are regulated, fast, and for most cases specific. Enzymes do not however prevent the parallel occurrence of non-enzymatic reactions. Non-enzymatic reactions were important for the evolution of metabolic pathways, but are retained as part of the modern metabolic network. They divide into unspecific chemical reactivity and specific reactions that occur either ex...

Microbial green chemistry

This page within the Green Chemistry Resource Exchange describes an award-winning technology to produce 1,3-propanediol using an engineered Escheri-chia coli strain. The process is now operating at a scale of 100 000 000 pounds, thus supplying this compound as a commodity chemical. Protection Agency's 2010 small business Green Chemistry award for developing innovative technology to make alkanes...

Enzymatic and Microbial Electrochemical Systems

Enzymatic and microbial electrochemical systems (MESs) utilize the ability of biological components— enzymes and microbes—to catalyze an oxidation or reduction reaction at solid-state electrodes. A commonly known system is the microbial fuel cell in which electricity is produced via the microbially catalyzed oxidation of organic matter. The electrochemical systems that are discussed have a wide...
