Enzymes (amylase, protease, lipase) Production

Enzymes (amylase, protease, lipase) Production

What Are Enzymes? Structure of Enzyme  Enzymes Classification Historically, enzymes were given names based on their discoverer. With additional study, classification grew more exhaustive. The International Union of Biochemists (IUB) classifies enzymes into six functional classes based on the sort of reaction they catalyse. Hydrolases, oxidoreductases, lyases, transferases, ligases, and isomerases are the six types … Read more

Factors Affecting Fermentation Characteristics of Starter Cultures 

Factors Affecting Fermentation Characteristics of Starter Cultures 

Many variables can affect the fermentation process of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) starters, including temperature, pH, strain capability, growth medium, inhibitors, bacteriophage, incubation period, heat treatment of milk, etc. To achieve the best activity of lactic acid bacteria during the manufacturing of fermented milks, caution is required. The following parameters significantly affect the growth and … Read more

L-Glutamic Acid Production

L-Glutamic Acid Production

Dr. K. Ikeda, a Japanese scientist, extracted glutamic acid from kelp, a marine alga, by means of acid hydrolysis and separation in 1908. In addition, he observed that when glutamic acid was neutralised with caustic soda, it acquired a totally new, exquisite flavour. This marked the beginning of using monosodium glutamate (MSG) as a flavour … Read more

Gluconic Acid Production

Gluconic Acid Production

Gluconic Acid is the 16 stereoisomers of 2,3,4,5,6-pentahydroxyhexanoic acid. It is an inorganic chemical. It occurs naturally in honey, plants, and wine. The first carbon of glucose is oxidised to form gluconic acid, which has antibacterial and chelating effects. Please include the chemical composition and further details. Properties Of Gluconic Acid Chemical formula C6H12O7 Molecular … Read more

Ethanol Production (Alcohol) – Ethanol fermentation

Ethanol Production

What is Ethanol? What is Ethanol (Alcohol) Fermentation? Ethanol Formula The molecular formula for ethanol is C2H6O, which indicates that it contains two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. The hydroxyl group (-OH) at the end of the two-carbon chain is denoted by the structural formula for ethanol, C2H5OH. Properties of Ethanol Ethanol, commonly known … Read more

Penicillin Production

Penicillin Production

In 1929, Alexander Flemming found that the mould Penicillium notatum secreted penicillin. However, the lytic agent appeared to be too unstable to be useful. In 1939, however, when Chain refined the active ingredient, termed penicillin, it proved to be extraordinarily powerful against some illnesses. Penicillin is not a single chemical entity, but rather a series … Read more
