Analytical and Nanotechnological Methods for Detection of 3-OH Oxylipins and Cell Ultrastructure in Fermenting Yeasts
(2016-11-14)While 3-hydroxy (OH) oxylipins, a class of hydroxy free fatty acids (FFA), have been previously presumed to play a role in the industrially important brewing yeast flocculation phenomenon, the exact biological function was ... -
Developing a Biological Approach for Chitin Extraction from Homarus americanus Shell Waste
(2021-04-30)Lobster processing generates ~0.3M tons of shell wastes each year in Canada, which are rich in chitin, proteins, and minerals, making them valuable substrate. Among them, chitin, a natural biopolymer, has various applications ... -
Developing a Sustainable Bioprocess for Chitin Extraction from Atlantic Lobster Shell Waste
(2021-01-07)The goal of this research was to develop a fermentative chitin extraction method from Atlantic lobster shell waste. Results showed initial inoculum ratio was the most statistically significant variable in chitin extraction ... -
Fermentability of Canadian Two-Row Barley Malt: Wort Turbidity, Density, and Sugar Content as Measures of Fermentation Potential
(2013-08-22)The primary goal of this study was to investigate and compare the fermentation performance of malt produced from eleven Canadian two-row barley varieties grown during the 2007 and 2008 crop seasons. Common malting varieties ... -
The Relationship between Chlorophyll a Fluorescence and the Lower Oxygen Limit in Higher Plants
(2011-08-03)The lower oxygen limit (LOL) in plants marks the oxygen (O2) level where the metabolism shifts from being predominantly aerobic to anaerobic; recent work has shown that respiratory-based indicators of this metabolic shift ...
