To produce maltobionic acid (MBA) from maltose in Escherichia coli, we recombinantly expressed a glucose dehydrogenase gene (gdh1) from Enterobacter cloacae and a pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) synthesis gene cluster (pqqFABCDEMIH) from Pseudomonas taetrolens. Although the recombinant E. coli strain (E.

In our previous study, we produced maltose from WCR using a commercial maltogenic amylase (Maltogenase L). However, in the present study, we used wild-type Bacillus subtilis, which inherently produces maltogenic amylase (AmyE), instead of Maltogenase L to produce maltose from WCR.

To recycle RFDS, we tested whether RFDS could be used as a culture nutrient to produce value-added microbial chemicals. As a case study, we attempted to produce lactic acid (LA) by cultivating lactic acid bacteria using RFDS.

Background: The number of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who are dependent on hemodialysis is increasing rapidly. As a result, more patients with ESRD need surgery. These patients have a significantly higher risk of postoperative death than those with normal kidney function.
