Predicting strain engineering strategies using iKS1317: a genome-scale metabolic model of Streptomyces coelicolor
Kumelj, Tjasa; Sulheim, Snorre; Wentzel, Alexander; Almaas, Eivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Streptomyces coelicolor is a model organism for the Actinobacteria, a phylum known to produce an extensive range of different bioactive compounds that include antibiotics currently used in the clinic. Biosynthetic gene ... -
Psychrobacter spp. from an Arctic marine environment: Versatile candidates for the degradation of phenolic compounds
Shojaei-Moghadam, Morteza (Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:133, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Phenol and its derivatives have challenged pollution/waste management due to being structurally recalcitrant to degradation processes. Bio-based processes continue to be the preferred choice for removal of phenols due to ... -
Response Surface Methodology for Understanding Glucose and Xylose Utilization by Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052
Birgen, Cansu; Markussen, Sidsel; Wentzel, Alexander; Preisig, Heinz A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)We applied response surface methodology to understand the effect and extend of carbon catabolite repression (CCR) on growth of Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 using xylose and glucose as representative lignocellulosic ... -
Studies on delignification and inhibitory enzyme kinetics of alkaline peroxide pre-treated pine and deodar saw dust
Baksi, Sibashish; Sarkar, Ujjaini; Saha, Sudeshna; Ball, Akash K.; Kuniyal, Jagdish Chandra; Wentzel, Alexander; Birgen, Cansu; Preisig, Heinz A.; Wittgens, Bernd; Markussen, Sidsel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Delignification of lignocellulosic biomass by alkaline peroxide pre-treatment is a preliminary important step for an overall biomass fractionation process. In the present work, saw dusts are pre-treated by aqueous alkaline ... -

Towards a low CO2 emission building material employing bacterial metabolism (1/2): The bacterial system and prototype production
Røyne, Anja; Phua, Yi Jing; Le, Simone Balzer; Eikjeland, Ina Grosås; Josefsen, Kjell Domaas; Markussen, Sidsel; Myhr, Anders; Throne-Holst, Harald; Sikorski, Pawel; Wentzel, Alexander (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The production of concrete for construction purposes is a major source of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. One promising avenue towards a more sustainable construction industry is to make use of naturally occurring mineral-microbe ... -
Valorization of lignocellulosic waste (Crotalaria juncea ) using alkaline peroxide pretreatment under different process conditions: An optimization study on separation of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose
Baksi, Sibashish; Saha, Sudeshna; Birgen, Cansu; Sarkar, Ujjaini; Preisig, Heinz A.; Markussen, Sidsel; Wittgens, Bernd; Wentzel, Alexander (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Lignocellulose materials, essentially consisting of lignin, cellulose and hemicelluloses, are abundant sources of fermentable sugars. The bast fiber of Crotalaria juncea (Sunn hemp), a native cover crop of India, was used ...
