1. Microbial production of chemical building blocks from lignin
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiAbstract : Plastics, derived from fossil fuels, have raised considerable environmental concerns. This has prompted the search for sustainable and safer plastic precursors alternatives. One alternative explored in the present study is vanillin, a phenolic compound derived from lignin, an abundant and renewable natural polymer. READ MORE

4. Growth and biodegradation by Sporidiobolales yeasts in vanillin-supplemented medium
University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för arbets- och folkhälsovetenskapAbstract : Studies of biodegradation in lignins by basidiomycetes yeasts show the conversion of lignin in various degradation products among which vanillin, a valuable substance, suggested to be a strong inhibitor of both fermentation and growth of yeasts, stands. Sporidiobolales yeasts used in these experiments were aimed to be identified by their highly conserved ITS region as well as studied in vanillinsupplemented medium through, vanillin-supplemented plates, TLC and Neubauer’s chamber to find out which, among the several isolates tested, were the most resistant ones, understand how they take up vanillin and how their growth is affected by the presence of the phenolic compound.

5. Development of Kraft Lignin and Coating Technique to Prepare Coated Urea Fertilisers with Increased Nutrient Use Efficiency
University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)Abstract : Coating urea to prepare controlled release N-fertilizer has been considered as an effective way to increase its nutrient use efficiency, thus reduce its waste and the consequent harmful environmental impacts. Inorganic sulphur and synthetic polymers have been used in the industry as coating materials together with utilization of various types of expensive coating equipment which commonly requires also complicated technical setup and controls.
