research‚ the investigators have found out that fruit peelings from banana and apple can be one of the good sources in producing an ethanol fuel. In connection with this‚ banana peelings and apple peelings can be made into ethanol with the process of fermentation and distillation. The investigation aims to lessen the amount of wastes in the environment and also prevents the pollution in the country. The production of ethanol in this investigation is to relieve the energy crisis that is happening to the

resulting calcium citrate is treated with sulfuric acid to regenerate the citric acid. Fermentation of sugar by the mold Aspergillus niger is the chief commercial source of the acid. It is added to some foods and beverages to produce pleasant acid flavor; It is also used in medicines‚ in making blueprint paper‚ in textile printing‚ and as a polishing agents for metals. Citric acid is the product of fermentation of numerous organisms.However‚certain strains of the fungus Aspergillus niger produce

The oxygen released in the air can be used by organisms that respire aerobically to release energy stored in molecules‚ these organisms release water and carbon dioxide as a byproduct. The carbon dioxide is necessary for the synthesis of carbohydrates in the organisms. Cellular respiration can be defines as metabolic reactions in organic cells which converts

Biochemical reactions such as producing enzymes and fermentation are limited. Micrococcus bacteria are found primarily on mammalian skin and in soil but commonly are isolated from food products and air (Holt‚ 530). Micrococcus can generally be found anywhere that has been contacted by soil and air. Since the

Although molds can and do grow on the surface of yogurt if the yogurt are exposed to air‚ the high moisture contents favors the faster-growing yeasts and bacteria. The deficiency of vitamin B discourages some bacteria. The normal change to be expected in raw yogurt in room temperatures is an alcoholic fermentation by yeasts‚ followed by the oxidation of the alcohol and yogurt acids by

Sourdough is the result of a fermentation process in which flour and water are mixed and fermented with microbes‚ especially LAB and yeasts (De Vuyst and Neysens 2005; Corsetti and Settanni 2007a; De Vuyst and Vancanneyt 2007; De Vuyst et al. 2009). Nowadays‚ sourdough is extensively used for the manufacture of a variety of products particularly breads and others‚ such as cakes‚ crackers‚ pizza‚ various sweet baked goods‚ and gluten-free products (Gobbetti 1998; De Vuyst et al. 2009).

Study yielded 5 new bioactive compounds: two secolignans‚ two tetrahydrofuran lignans‚ and one highly methoxylated dihydronaphthalenone. • Proximate analysis of leaves yielded a high ash content‚ a higher crude fiber content‚ and a still higher carbohydrate content. Mineral analysis showed low manganese‚ iron‚ zinc and copper‚ with high sodium content. Phytochemical screening yielded alkaloids‚ cardenolides‚ saponins and tannins. • An ether soluble fraction of the whole plant yielded 4‚7-dimethoxy-5-(2-propenyl)-1

Abstract and Theory: There are many techniques that are used to purify liquid. The one that is going to use for this lab is simple distillation. It is a process of which separating a mixture based on the tendency of the mixture to vaporize into a boiling liquid. For this particular experiment‚ a disaccharide carbohydrate sugar like sucrose will mix with yeast

A FERMENTER OR BIOREACTOR MICROBE INPUT :- The microorganisms that will carry out the fermentation process are cultured separately until they are growing well. These are introduced into the fermenter through the microbe input. NUTRIENT INPUT :- The microorganisms require an energy source to carry out fermentation. The energy source is usually a carbohydrate. Growth materials like amino acids for protein synthesis are also added through the nutrient input. STERILE CONDITIONS:- It is necessary
