Title: Microbial conversion of glycerol into glycolipid biosurfactants, mannosylerythritol lipids, by a basidiomycete yeast, Pseudozyma antarctica JCM 10317(T). Author: Morita T, Konishi M, Fukuoka T, Imura T, Kitamoto D. Journal: J Biosci Bioeng; 2007 Jul; 104(1):78-81. PubMed ID: 17697987. Abstract: Microbial conversion of glycerol into functional bio-based materials was investigated, aiming to facilitate the utilization of waste glycerol. A basidiomycete yeast, Pseudozyma antarctica JCM 10317, efficiently produced mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) as glycolipid biosurfactants from glycerol. The amount of MEL yield reached 16.3 g l(-1) by intermittent feeding of glycerol.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
