Abstract: A method and system for control of a microbial fermentation process involving co-fermentation of sugars from lignocellulosic biomass to fermentation products by means of fermentation microorganisms is provided. A residual sugar indicator parameter RSI is measured, which parameter directly or indirectly indicates the concentration of residual sugars, during fermentation in the fermentation vessel (31). The amount of fermentation media added to the fermentation vessel is automatically adapted in a predetermined manner in response to the residual sugar indicator parameter, so as to achieve efficient co-fermentation of sugars to fermentation products.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a transformed microorganism capable of (a) a higher xylose isomerase activity than the equivalent microorganism prior to transformation; and/or (b) a higher growth rate in or on a growth medium comprising xylose than the equivalent microorganism prior to transformation; and/or (c) a faster metabolism of xylose than the equivalent microorganism prior to transformation; and/or (d) a higher production of ethanol when grown anaerobically on xylose as the carbon source than the equivalent microorganism prior to transformation.

Abstract: A method of producing a low molecular weight organic compound (e.g. a plant or bacteria secondary metabolite) in increased yields involving use of a microorganism cell, which comprises a gene involved in the biosynthesis pathway leading to a low molecular weight organic aglycon compound and a glycosyltransferase gene capable of glycosylating the produced aglycon.
