Among the different routes to establish a fermentative process based on microbial fermentation of glycerol, the use of "wild type" natural producers and engineered strains are the most considered.
Salami is a kind of dry sausage obtained by the microbial fermentation of raw pork meat, using Staphylococcus starter cultures as technological accessories to ferment the product and give it its organoleptic characteristics.
Microbial fermentation of carbohydrates in the rumen is largely responsible for the emission of methane by ruminants.
Microbial fermentation of renewable feedstocks into plastic monomers can decrease our fossil dependence and reduce global CO2 emissions.
The short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) produced in the large intestine by microbial fermentation of dietary fibre are rapidly absorbed from the large intestinal mucosa to provide the host with energy for basal metabolism22.
The current modes of generating PLA involve microbial fermentation of starting material, lactic acid (LA), followed by chemical ring-opening polymerization.
Current and future endeavors will utilize plants as the foundation of a bio-based economy through the photosynthetic production of carbohydrate feedstocks for the microbial fermentation of biofuels and bioproducts, with the end goal of decreasing our dependence on petrochemicals.
In particular, inefficient and slow microbial fermentation of non-glucose sugars, such as galactose and xylose from the depolymerization of marine and terrestrial biomass has been a major obstacle.
Extractive microbial fermentation of organic compounds in liquid liquid two-phase systems is a potential strategy to overcome the limitations of microbial fermentation in an aqueous solution, such as low substrate solubility, substrate/product inhibition and product further degradation.
There was no difference between groups in ability to regulate rumen fluid pH, suggesting the major factor contributing to development of acidosis is rapid microbial fermentation of soluble carbohydrates irrespective of adaption of the epithelium or microbial populations.
Bioplastics that were either in use or under study included PHB and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), both of which are synthesized within specialized microbes, as well as polylactic acid (PLA), which is polymerized from lactic acid monomers produced by microbial fermentation of plant-derived sugars and starches.
