Integrated perspective on microbe-based production of itaconic acid: from metab...
Nascimento, Miguel Figueiredo; Marques, Nuno; Correia, Joana; Faria, Nuno Torres; Mira, Nuno P.; Ferreira, Frederico CasteloABSTRACT: The discovery of itaconic acid as a product of citric acid pyrolytic distillation in 1837 opened the possibility of using it as a polymer building block. Itaconic acid, featuring two carboxylic acids and an unsaturated group, can potentially be used as a building block in several chemical syntheses, with a particular emphasis on polymer manufacture. The elucidation of biochemical pathways originating ...
Production of Mannosylerythritol Lipids Using Oils from Oleaginous Microalgae: ...
Nascimento, Miguel Figueiredo; Coelho, Tiago; Reis, Alberto; Gouveia, Luisa; Faria, Nuno Torres; Ferreira, Frederico CasteloABSTRACT: Mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) are biosurfactants with excellent biochemical properties and a wide range of potential applications. However, most of the studies focusing on MELs high titre production have been relying in the use of vegetable oils with impact on the sustainability and process economy. Herein, we report for the first time MELs production using oils produced from microalgae. The bio-oi...

Moesziomyces spp. cultivation using cheese whey: new yeast extract-free media, ...
Nascimento, Miguel Figueiredo; Barreiros, Ricardo; Oliveira, Ana Cristina; Ferreira, Frederico Castelo; Faria, Nuno TorresABSTRACT: Mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) are biosurfactants with excellent biochemical properties and a wide range of potential applications. However, high production costs, low productivity and unsatisfactory scale-up production have hampered commercial adoption. Herein, we report for the first time the beta-galactosidase production by Moesziomyces spp. from different sugars (D-galactose, D-glucose and D-lac...
