The evolutionary adaptation was carried out on the thermotolerant yeast Kluyveromyces marxianus NIRE-K1 at 45 °C up to 60 batches to enhance its xylose utilization capability. The adapted strain showed higher specific growth rate and 3-fold xylose uptake rate and short lag phase as compared to the native strain. During aerobic growth adapted yeast showed 2.81-fold higher xylose utilization than that of native. In anaerobic batch fermentation, adapted yeast utilized about 91% of xylose in 72 h and produced 2.88 and 18.75 g l⁻¹ of ethanol and xylitol, respectively, which were 5.11 and 5.71-fold higher than that of native. Ethanol yield, xylitol yield and specific sugar consumption rate obtained by the adapted cells were found to be 1.57, 1.65 and 4.84-fold higher than that of native yeast, respectively. Aforesaid results suggested that the evolutionary adaptation will be a very effective strategy in the near future for economic lignocellulosic ethanol production.

4-Amidogen-1,8-naphthalimide (ANA), a novel pre-column derivatization reagent, has been successfully synthesized and utilized for the highly sensitive analysis of monosaccharides. ANA reacts with the reducing carbonyl groups of saccharides, facilitating monosaccharide detection. The resulting monosaccharide derivatives were meticulously investigated using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) coupled with ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy.

Myo-inositol is an active sugar alcohol which has important physiological functions. In this study, an engineered strain that could simultaneously utilize glucose and xylose to produce myo-inositol was constructed, and its fermentation performance was determined. Firstly, the gene was deleted to make BL21 capable of utilizing glucose and xylose simultaneously as mixed carbon source.

Many patients with diabetes use self-measurement devices for blood glucose to understand their blood glucose levels. Most of these devices utilize FAD-dependent glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) to determine blood glucose levels. For this purpose, FAD-GDHs specifically oxidizing glucose among the sugars present in blood is required.

This study aims to explore the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment as a method very likely to result in reversible electroporation of Georgi underground organs, resulting in increased mass transfer and secondary metabolites leakage. PEF treatment with previously established empirically tailored parameters [E = 0.3 kV/cm (U = 3 kV, d = 10 cm), t = 50 µs, N = 33 f = 1 Hz] was applied 1-3 times to roots submerged in four different Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADES) media (1-choline chloride/xylose (1:2) + 30% water, 2-choline chloride/glucose (1:2) + 30% water, 3-choline chloride/ethylene glycol (1:2), and 4-tap water (EC = 0.
