A novel strain of Bacillus fusiformis, producing high amounts of vanillin from isoeugenol, was isolated from soil. Using 60% (v/v) isoeugenol as substrate and solvent and at pH 4.0, 37°C and 180 rpm, vanillin was produced at 32.5 g l )1 over 72 h. The unused isoeugenol was reusable.
Non-fermentative chemoenzymatic transformations have attracted great interest of both academia and industry. Here, we report a green chemoenzymatic cascade reaction that converts the C1 compound formaldehyde into lactic acid using...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
