Food waste (FW) is one of the main problems in world due to continuous increase global population. Anaerobic digestion (AD) FW was an alternative and economical solution develop effective method enhance biomethane (BioM) production that uses enzyme pretreatment hydrolysis by locally produced cellulase amylase enzymes. In this study, two types sources fungi (TNAF-1 TNFA-3) (TNBC-1 TNBC-3) strain...

The increase in environmental problems and the shortage of fossil fuels have led to the need for action in the development of sustainable and renewable fuels. Methane is produced through anaerobic digestion of organic materials and is a biofuel with very promising characteristics. The success in using methane as a biofuel has resulted in the operation of several commercial-scale plants and the ...

Lower termites need symbiotic microbes for cellulose digestion. Elizabethkingia miricola strain BM10 has been proposed as a microbe that assists in low-temperature digestion and metabolism of Reticulitermes speratus KMT1, termite on Bukhan Mountain, Seoul, Korea. In E. BM10, β-glucosidase genes expressed at 10°C were identified, the psychrophilic enzymatic characteristic was confirmed by hetero...

Hydrogels derived from synthetic polymers have been previously engineered to degrade under the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). It is believed that these systems can act as extracellular-matrix (ECM) equivalents mimicking the degradation and remodeling of the ECM through the activity of cell-secreted enzymes. In this study, MMP-sensitive hydrogels derived from dextran were develope...

Oat β-Glucans were studied for their immunological impact before and after enzymatic digestion in order to enhance the efficacy of oat β-Glucans for application in functional foods. Oat β-Glucan is reported to have minimal impact compared to its fungal counterpart in vitro. Digestion with endo-glucanase enhanced its efficacy towards stimulating MCP-1, RANTES, IL-8, and IL-4 production in human ...
