摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of xylitol. Specifically the process comprises two reaction steps. The first step is the fermentative conversion of a hexose to a pentitol. The second step is the catalytic chemical isomerisation of the pentitol to xylitol. Optionally, the xylitol is separated from the other pentitols.

An efficient method of producing phytosphingosine-containing ceramide one comprising: (a) obtaining a phytosphingosine base from tetraacetylphytosphingosine (TAPS) by a deacetylation reaction wherein the TAPS is produced by fermentation of cells of the F-60-10 mating type strain of Hansenula ciferrii using a fed-batch mode and a non-fermentable carbon source; and (b) coupling together the phytosphingosine base and a fatty acid/.omega.-hydroxy fatty acid component wherein the .omega.-hydroxy fatty acid component is prepared by a process which includes Kolbe synthesis.

摘要:
A process is disclosed for enzymatically converting lower alkyl alcohols to corresponding aldehydes and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of oxygen under process conditions which increase the catalytic capacity of alcohol oxidase enzymes. Such process conditions involve low temperatures, high substrate concentrations and an enriched supply of oxygen. Enzymes may be used in the form of whole cells, a soluble cell free extract or a highly purified fraction, and the process may be employed in batch or continuous operation.
摘要:
Rapid identification of different species of microorganism selected from fungi and yeast like algae is accomplished by culturing the microorganism for several hours under normal conditions on a non-inhibitory mycological medium which stimulates the microorganism to make characteristic enzymes by which the microorganism can be identified, distributing the culture (in suspension) onto several supports containing different substrates which are capable of reacting with the enzymes so produced by the different species of microorganisms; and rapidly incubating the admixture to produce a distinctly colored or colorable reaction product.
摘要:
A single cell protein plant is operated to produce high density cell growth and a substantially pure stream of generally high pressure carbon dioxide for further use, for example, in enhanced oil recovery operations. The plant employs an air separator producing substantially pure streams of oxygen and nitrogen. The oxygen stream is used to enrich a carrier fluid and used for aeration of the fermenter. The off-gases from the fermenter are separated into a generally high pressure, substantially pure carbon dioxide stream which can be used for enhanced oil recovery and a residual recycle stream to which oxygen is again added and which is returned to the fermenter. The single cell protein is dried and further processed as required for human or animal consumption.
摘要:
A process for the production of microbial cells by fermenting a carbonaceous material in a foam fermenter containing an oxygen-enriched nutrient medium. The process uses a source of carbon which is assimilable by the microorganism for the production of the microbial cells. The microbial cells are separated and removed from the foam fermenter for use as a food product high in protein content.
摘要:
Many yeasts are capable of growing in culture media which contain propionate and n-butyrate ions as the principal or the sole significant source of carbon. Propionic and butyric acid are waste products of the petrochemical industry, and the yeast cells are a valuable feed supplement.
摘要:
Processes for producing citric acid together with microbial cells as well as producing increased yields of citric acid and/or isocitric acid by fermentation are described. Hydrocarbonassimilating microorganisms are employed in media containing hydrocarbons as the main carbon source. The addition of alcohols, such as C1-C20 saturated alcohols, to the medium permits the accumulation of citric acid together with the obtained microbial cells. The addition of ferrocyanides, such as potassium or sodium ferrocyanide, to the medium enhances the yield of isocitric acid, while the addition of monofluoroacetic acid or a salt thereof to the medium enhances the yield of citric acid.
摘要:
A COMPOUND HAVING A 16-(ETHERIFIED OR ESTERIFIED HYDROXY)-17-ACYLOXY-13-SUBSTITUTED GONA-1,3,5(10),8,14PENTAENE NUCLEUS IS OBTAINED BY ALLOWING A COMPOUND HAVING A 17-ACYLOXY-13-SUBSTITUTED 8,14-SECOGONA-1,3,5 (10),9(11),15-PENTAENE-14-ONE NUCLEUS TO CONTACT WITH AN ACID CATALYST IN PRESENCE OF ALCOHOL, PHENOL OR FATTY ACID, AND CONVERTING THE RESULTANT COMPOUND HAVING A 16-(ETHERIFIED OR ESTERIFIED HYDROXY)-17-ACYLOXY-13-SUBSTITUTED GONA-1,3,5(10),8,14-PENTAENE NUCEUS DIRECTLY OR AFTER REDUCTION OF ITS DOUBLE BOND AT THE 8-POSITION OR BANDS AT THE 8- AND 14-POSITIONS, TO A COMPOUND HAVING A 13-(HYDROCARBON SUBSTITUTED)GONAPOLYEN-17-ONE NUCLEUS. IT IS THUS MADE POSSIBLE TO EFFECT THE TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF THE GONA POLYENES (E.G. ESTRONE) VIA A LESSER NUMBER OF STEPS THAN HAS HERETOFORE BEEN POSSIBLE.

A PROCESSS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF AN EDIBLE YEAST PRODUCT WITH A CONCURRENT DEWAXING OF A PETROLEUM FRACTION CONTAINING INITIALLY FROM 3 TO 45% BY WEIGHT OF N-PARAFFIN, SAID FRACTION FURTHER CONTAINING BRANCHED-CHAIN PARAFFINS, NAPHTHENES AND AROMATICS. SAID PROCESS PRODUCES A DEWAXED GAS-OIL PRODUCT THUS RENDERED MORE SUITABLE FOR INDUSTRIAL USE THROUGH A REDUCED PROPORTION OF N-PARAFFIN AND AN EDIBLE YEAST PRODUCT WHICH IS CULTIVATED AT THE EXPENSE OF THE N-PARAFFIN INITIALLY PRESENT.
