The bioethanol visibility in the global matrix of fuels, linked to ecological appeal and the
possibility of using new raw materials justifies the increasing investments for the …

Bioethanol continues to be offered as a viable solution for complex problems ranging from
global warming and national energy security to local economic development. Fuel …

Evaluating a wealth of quantitative data, Biofuels: Biotechnology, Chemistry, and
Sustainable Development discusses different types of biofuels, the science behind their …

The emergence of antibiotic‐resistant bacteria may limit the effectiveness of antibiotics to
treat bacterial contamination in fuel ethanol plants, and therefore, new antibacterial …

Sugarcane ethanol production occurs in non-sterile conditions, and microbial contamination
can decrease productivity. In this study, we assessed the microbial diversity of contaminants …

Fuel ethanol fermentations are not performed under aseptic conditions and microbial
contamination reduces yields and can lead to costly “stuck fermentations”. Antibiotics are …

Bacterial contaminants can inhibit ethanol production in biofuel fermentations, and even
result in stuck fermentations. Contaminants may persist in production facilities by forming …

Microbial interactions represent important modulatory role in the dynamics of biological
processes. During bioethanol production from sugar cane must, the presence of lactic acid …

Control of bacterial contamination in bioethanol fermentation facilities has traditionally relied
on chemical-based products such as hop acids and use of antibiotics. Recent emphasis on …

This study investigated the secretion of endolysin LysKB317 integrated into the HO locus of
Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain NRRL Y-2034 to enable the yeast to simultaneously …
