  • METHOD OF CULTURE
    Publication number: 20240067993
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for anaerobic culture of denitrifying microorganisms in culture medium in which nitric acid and/or nitrous acid are added two or more times to the medium during culture, and in which the pH of the medium is maintained within a pH interval by the addition of the nitric acid and/or nitrous acid and the nitric acid and/or nitrous acid also provides the electron acceptor for denitrification in the culture. Methods of producing a cell culture product using such methods and the products which are obtained are also provided.

  • Method of enhancing degradation of chitin
    Patent number: 8377650
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of enhancing chitin degradation or weakening the structure of a chitin substrate comprising exposing chitin to a non-hydrolytic chitin binding protein (CBP). The invention further provides a method of enhancing chitin degradation comprising exposing chitin to a non-hydrolytic CBP and a chitin hydrolase. Compositions, including fungicides, comprising non-hydrolytic CBPs and transgenic plants comprising exogenous nucleic acid molecules encoding a non-hydrolytic CBP are also provided.
