| mucor rhizopus: Industrial Applications Heinz Osiewacz, 2001-10-09 Mycology, the study of fungi, originated as a subdiscipline of botany and was a descrip tive discipline, largely neglected as an experimental science until the early years of this century. A seminal paper by Blakeslee in 1904 provided evidence for self incompatibility, termed heterothallism, and stimulated interest in studies related to the control of sexual reproduction in fungi by mating-type specificities. Soon to follow was the demonstration that sexually reproducing fungi exhibit Mendelian inheritance and that it was possible to conduct formal genetic analysis with fungi. The names Burgeff, Kniep and Lindegren are all associated with this early period of fungal genetics research. These studies and the discovery of penicillin by Fleming, who shared a Nobel Prize in 1945, provided further impetus for experimental research with fungi. Thus began a period of interest in mutation induction and analysis of mutants for biochemical traits. Such fundamental research, conducted largely with Neurospora crassa, led to the one gene: one enzyme hypothesis and to a second Nobel Prize for fungal research awarded to Beadle and Tatum in 1958. Fundamental research in biochemical genetics was extended to other fungi, especially to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and by the mid-1960s fungal systems were much favored for studies in eukaryotic molecular biology and were soon able to compete with bacterial systems in the molecular arena. |

| mucor rhizopus: Science and Engineering of Chinese Liquor (Baijiu) Yan Xu, 2023-01-27 This book provides a cutting-edge scientific overview of Chinese liquor, also known as Baijiu. Chinese liquor is one of the world’s most ancient fermented alcoholic beverages. Fermented foods and beverages are consumed worldwide as an indispensable constituent in our daily life. However, most fermented foods rely on traditional techniques with limited known scientific knowledge. These indigenous processes are typically empirical without scientifically-based control and technological insights. The book analyses Chinese liquor processing on the three most important disciplines of fermented foods: process technology/engineering, flavor chemistry, and microbiology. It also addresses the perspectives and future research needs associated with spontaneous fermented foods. This book offers a deep understanding of the science of Chinese liquor production to students, researchers, and related practitioners both in the academic and the industry. It would also benefit many other fields of fermented foods for their optimization, standardization, and modernization. |

Kunwar, 2016-05-01 Fungi and microbes have predominant influence in our lives. They are directly or indirectly involved in generating the food we eat and drink, besides providing life saving pharmaceutical products, including the sources of enzymes. They play a vital role in recycling of organic matter and several ecological processes. Both fungi and microbes have contributed several billion dollars worth of technological products. For instance: yeast is used in brewing and bakery, Lactobacillus ferments milk to yoghurt and a number of edible mushrooms are rich in nutrients besides possessing many medicinal properties. Bacteria and fungi serve as key organisms in understanding life processes, genetic engineering and as experimental organisms. Therefore, it is necessary to study the biology and biotechnology of these organisms.

| mucor rhizopus: Biofuels Daniel Black, 2019-06-13 Energy is a fundamental enabler of economy, and revolutionary changes in energy cost and effectiveness, from animal and wood, to coal, whale oil, petroleum and nuclear technologies, have deeply shaped throughout history societal evolution worldwide. The nextwave of changes, as the world economic engine integrates renewable energy technologies such as solar technologies or biofuels, perhaps constitutes a greater challenge since predictably these technologies will be at least transiently less efficient than the conventional energies of today based on fossil and nuclear fuels. Understanding these challenges that lie ahead is an important task to perform in order to design winning industrial strategies for the future. Chapter 1 and 2 discuss about the basics of biofuel and The Global Demand for Biofuels: Technologies, Markets and Policies. If biofuel is one of the expected solutions, we must know where is the beginning of the crisis and its solution. This chapter reviews the background story along with an optimistic outlook for a safe energy resource on our green earth. Chapter 3 is based on the Renewable Energy Resources. Chapter 4 depicts about the biomass and biofuels. Chapter 5, 6, 7 and 8 covers the use of bioethanol, hydrogen, methane and methonal. Chapter 9 describes the use of Ethanol and Methonal as fuel. Chapter 10 is based on the Energy systems, their storage and transmission. Chapter 11 depicts the Institutional and economic factors from renewable. The association of the book is concocted to encourage viable learning encounters The book is organized in a manner to cater to the needs of students, researchers, managerial organizations, and readers at large. It is hoped that this book will help our readers to understand: What are the various biofuels available to us; Why biofuels are required; How to use biofuels. What is the need to Conserve these biofuels. |

| mucor rhizopus: Food Microbiology and Hygiene Richard Hayes, 2013-03-09 The aims of this book remain the same, that is, that it should be of in terest to all those people concerned with, or about, food hygiene in the broadest sense. There was clearly a need for a book of this sort and its success has necessitated a second edition. It will, I hope, answer criticisms that were justifiably made about certain omissions and shortcomings levelled at the earlier edition. The whole book has been thoroughly revised with the introduction of several new sections to various chapters. During the time that has elapsed since the earlier edition appeared there has been much publicity about newer forms of 'food poisoning'. Thus listeriosis is discussed in some detail whilst the problems of salmonellas in eggs and BSE are also considered. Interest in irradiated foods has waxed and waned but it is rightly included in the relevant chapter. There has been much progress in methodology with the advent of advanced molecular techniques such as gene probes and that of PCR; these are discussed briefly. I have included sections on HACCP which has come into great prominence in recent years thus answering a specific criticism made of the earlier edition. The chapter on water and waste disposal contains material on Legionnaires' disease and cryptosporidiosis, infections of much concern at the present time. Finally, the chapter on legislation has undergone a major revision with far greater emphasis being placed on EC food hygiene legislation. |
