Dioscorea alata, also known as water yam is an important plant found globally. Nearly 600 different yam species have been reported around the world. D. alata is an edible product, it is highly cultivated in countries like tropical South America, Africa, Australia, and South-eastern U.S. Dioscorea alata, commonly known as water yam, purple yam, ube, or greater yam has been reported to have diverse activities in various diseases. D. alata belongs to dioscoreaceae family and has been found to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic properties. The metabolic products of dioscorea alata are phenolic compounds, reducing sugars, flavonoids, glycoside, saponins, alkaloids, anthraquinones, proteins, tannins etc. The active constituents of D. alata are diosgenin, dioscorine, dioscin, cholin, mucin, allantoin, crude fat, crude fiber, catechins, chlorogenic acids, proanthocyanidins, myricetin, diosbulbin and sapogenin. Diosgenin is one of the main steroidal glycoside has been reported to have different activities like anti-diabetic activity, anti-hypertensive activity, anti-cancer activity, anti-inflammatory activity and cardio protective activity. Diosgenin is effective in heart disease due to the anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic activity. Diosgenin has also been found to reduce oxidative stress and increase the levels of glutathione, SOD and catalase activity. Diosgenin also reported to inhibit the apoptosis by reducing the activation of caspase 9, a pro-apoptotic factor. Furthermore, bioactive compounds, including diosgenin, anthocyanins and dietary fiber of D. alata tuber has potential to prevent the condition of hyperlipidemia by normalizing blood lipid profiles. However, further investigations are required to find the effect of D. alata on cardiovascular disorders.

Microbial Beta Glucosidase Enzymes: Recent Advances in Biomass Conversation for Biofuels Application

et al. 2019

The biomass to biofuels production process is green, sustainable, and an advanced technique to resolve the current environmental issues generated from fossil fuels. The production of biofuels from biomass is an enzyme mediated process, wherein β-glucosidase (BGL) enzymes play a key role in biomass hydrolysis by producing monomeric sugars from cellulose-based oligosaccharides. However, the production and availability of these enzymes realize their major role to increase the overall production cost of biomass to biofuels production technology. Therefore, the present review is focused on evaluating the production and efficiency of β-glucosidase enzymes in the bioconversion of cellulosic biomass for biofuel production at an industrial scale, providing its mechanism and classification. The application of BGL enzymes in the biomass conversion process has been discussed along with the recent developments and existing issues. Moreover, the production and development of microbial BGL enzymes have been explained in detail, along with the recent advancements made in the field. Finally, current hurdles and future suggestions have been provided for the future developments. This review is likely to set a benchmark in the area of cost effective BGL enzyme production, specifically in the biorefinery area.

Alternatives for Chemical and Biochemical Lignin Valorization: Hot Topics from a Bibliometric Analysis of the Research Published During the 2000–2016 Period

2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A complete bibliometric analysis of the Scopus database was performed to identify the research trends related to lignin valorization from 2000 to 2016. The results from this analysis revealed an exponentially increasing number of publications and a high relevance of interdisciplinary collaboration. The simultaneous valorization of the three main components of lignocellulosic biomass (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) has been revealed as a key aspect and optimal pretreatment is required for the subsequent lignin valorization. Research covers the determination of the lignin structure, isolation, and characterization; depolymerization by thermal and thermochemical methods; chemical, biochemical and biological conversion of depolymerized lignin; and lignin applications. Most methods for lignin depolymerization are focused on the selective cleavage of the β-O-4 linkage. Although many depolymerization methods have been developed, depolymerization with sodium hydroxide is the dominant process at industrial scale. Oxidative conversion of lignin is the most used method for the chemical lignin upgrading. Lignin uses can be classified according to its structure into lignin-derived aromatic compounds, lignin-derived carbon materials and lignin-derived polymeric materials. There are many advances in all approaches, but lignin-derived polymeric materials appear as a promising option.
