INHIBITION OF EXTRACELLULAR PROTEASES IMPROVES THE PRODUCTION OF A XYLANASE IN PARAGEOBACILLUS THERMOGLUCOSIDASIUS

Inhibition of extracellular proteases improves the production of a xylanase in Parageobacillus thermoglucosidasius

Abstract Background Parageobacillus thermoglucosidasius is a thermophilic and ethanol-producing bacterium capable of utilising both hexose and pentose sugars for black label society disposable fermentation.The organism has been proposed to be a suitable organism for the production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic feedstocks.These feedstocks may b

Estimation of an elite road cyclist mechanical power and energy cost wearing standard and aero helmets: an analytical procedure and numerical simulations approach

The aim of this study was to assess and compare by numerical simulations and analytical models the resistive forces, mechanical power and energy cost using two different types of road helmets (standard vs aero road helmet).An elite cyclist was scanned on the racing bicycle, wearing his competition gear and helmets.Numerical simulations by Computati
