Bioconversion of Lignocellulosic Waste to Bioethanol: Role of Microorganisms

Lignocellulosic biomass is an abundant, renewable, and sustainable resource with significant potential for bioethanol production. However, its complex structure, composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, presents a major challenge for its efficient conversion to fermentable sugars. The bioconversion of lignocel...

Bioeconomy, sustainability, and digital technologies in Haematococcus lacustris biomass and astaxanthin production: advances and outlook

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid with strong antioxidant properties, used in research on cancer treatment, ocular injuries, and neurological disorders. When produced by the microalgae Haematococcus lacustris , its antioxidant potential is even higher than that of the synthetic molecule, making it particularly attracti...
