Super-fermenting fungus genome sequenced
On the road to making biofuels more economically competitive with fossil fuels, there are significant potholes to negotiate. For cellulosic ethanol production, one major detour has being addressed with the characterization of the genetic blueprint of the fungus Pichia stipitis, by the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) and collaborators at the U.S. Forest Service, Forest...Hives ferment a yeasty brew, attract beetle pest
The honeybee's alarm signal may not only bring help, but also attract the small hive beetle. Now, an international team of researchers has found that small hive beetles can detect some alarm pheromones at levels below that detected by honeybees. The beetles associate the alarm chemicals with a good food source and head for the hive. In Africa, where the small hive beetle is a minor honeybe...Smarter Fermentation System Controller for One Vessel from Major Science

An advanced new benchtop fermentor and cell culturebioreactor system has been developed, which for thefirst time enables you to optimize process control byintegrating data from up to 11 external devices*. This meansthat data from your scales, gas analyzers, supplementarypumps, cell mass sensors, and so on, can be directly added andcascaded...High Yield Protein Production from Pichia pastoris Yeast: A Protocol for Benchtop Fermentation
Over the last several decades, geneticists have learned how to manipulate DNA to identify,excise, move and place genes into a variety of organisms that are quite different genetically fromthe source organism. A major use for many of these recombinant organisms is to produceprot...Fermented Milk offers protection against allergies in infants
According to researchers from Taiwan, babies can be protected from certain food allergies by feeding them fermented milk//. Kefir, a traditional fermented drink, is generally used as a weaning food. The researchers found that it has "friendly" bacteria that may function in obstructing the pathway involved in allergic responses. The risk of food allergy in kids below the age of...Antimicrobial Susceptibility-Nonfermenter
