Lignin is a natural UV-blocking material owing to its aromatic structure with numerous phenolic, ketone, and intramolecular hydrogen bonds. To produce high-performance and applicable sunscreen from lignin, various modification methods can be applied.
The cost of biodiesel production relies on feedstock cost. Edible oil is unfavorable as a biodiesel feedstock because of its expensive price. Thus, non-edible crop oil, waste oil, and microalgae oil have been considered as alternative resources. Non-edible crop oil and waste cooking oil are more suitable for enzymatic transesterification because they include a large amount of free fatty acids. Recently, enzymes have been integrated with nanomaterials as immobilization carriers. Nanomaterials can
Safety and regulatory issues favor increasing use of enantiopure compounds in pharmaceuticals. Enantiopure epoxides and diols are valuable intermediates in organic synthesis for the production of optically active pharmaceuticals. Enantiopure epoxide can be prepared using epoxide hydrolase (EH)-catalyzed asymmetric hydrolysis of its racemate. Enantioconvergent hydrolysis of racemic epoxides by EHs possessing complementary enantioselectivity and regioselectivity can lead to the formation of enanti
Abstract Methane‐assimilating bacteria, methanotrophs, can play an important role in producing various value‐added chemicals and biofuels from methane, which is considered a next‐generation carbon feedstock. The capability to engineer the metabolic pathway of methanotrophs is a key success factor for enhancing methane‐to‐product conversion efficiency. Recently, OMICS studies on several model methanotrophs have been conducted and provided strategies to engineer methanotrophs. Here, we present a r
Abstract Background Methane is the major component of natural and shale gas. Methane can be converted into methanol via a bioprocess using methanotrophs, and methanol is a valuable chemical feedstock for the production of value‐added chemicals. This work demonstrates highly effective bioconversion of methane to methanol using a newly isolated novel methanotroph, Methylomonas sp. DH ‐1. Results A novel methanotroph strain was isolated from activated sludge from a brewery plant and characterized u
