Biohydrogen production in a continuous stirred tank bioreactor from synthesis gas by anaerobic photosynthetic bacterium: Rhodopirillum rubrum
Younesi, Habibollah; Najafpour, Ghasem D.; Ku Syahidah, Ku Ismail; Abdul Rahman, Mohamed; Azlina, Harun Kamaruddin (Elsevier Ltd., 2007-05)Hydrogen may be considered a potential fuel for the future since it is carbon-free and oxidized to water as a combustion product. Bioconversion of synthesis gas (syngas) to hydrogen was demonstrated in continuous stirred ... -
Biological hydrogen production from CO: Bioreactor performance
Ku Syahidah, Ku Ismail; Ghasem, Najafpour; Habibollah, Younesi; Abdul Rahman, Mohamed; Azlina, Harun Kamaruddin (Elsevier B.V., 2008-05-01)This paper presents an alternative solution to the current problem faced by the world; diminishing of fossil fuel. Bioconversion of synthesis gas to hydrogen as clean fuel was catalyzed by a photosynthetic bacterium, ... -
Co-expression of TAL1 and ADH1 in recombinant xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae improves ethanol production from lignocellulosic hydrolysates in the presence of furfural
Hasunuma, Tomohisa; Ku Syahidah, Ku Ismail; Nambu, Yumiko; Kondo, Akihiko (Elsevier, 2014-02)Lignocellulosic biomass dedicated to bioethanol production usually contains pentoses and inhibitory compounds such as furfural that are not well tolerated by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Thus, S. cerevisiae strains with the ... -
Gene expression cross-profiling in genetically modified industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains during high-temperature ethanol production from xylose
Ku Syahidah, Ku Ismail; Takatoshi, Sakamoto; Haruyo, Hatanaka; Tomohisa, Hasunuma; Akihiko, Kondo (Elsevier B.V., 2013-01)Production of ethanol from xylose at high temperature would be an economical approach since it reduces risk of contamination and allows both the saccharification and fermentation steps in SSF to be running at elevated ... -
Thermo-enzymatic hydrolysis of Cassava Starch by α-amylase and amyloglucosidase
Ku Syahidah, Ku Ismail; A.A. Ahmad; T. Inba; Khairul Farihan, Kasim; Mohamed Zulkali, Mohamed Daud (Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2008-03-16)One of the greatest challenges for the 21st century society is to meet the growing demand for energy for transportation in sustainable way. Petroleum based products are in critical state and alternatives for fuel is needed. ... -
Time-based comparative transcriptomics in engineered xylose-utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae identifies temperature-responsive genes during ethanol production
Ku Syahidah, Ku Ismail; Sakamoto, Takatoshi; Hasunuma, Tomohisa; Kondo, Akihiko (Society for Industrial Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013-09)Agricultural residues comprising lignocellulosic materials are excellent sources of pentose sugar, which can be converted to ethanol as fuel. Ethanol production via consolidated bioprocessing requires a suitable microorganism ...
