Fermentation has been used to process foods as far as |
6000 BC |
|
do just bacteria play a role in production of foods? |
no fungi too |
|
milk is made by |
streptococcus |
|
cheese is made by |
lactococcus lactis they die off because ph is too high |
|
chocholate is made by |
candida rugosta |
|
bread, wine and beer are made by |
S cerevisae |
|
cheese has been around more than
|
8000 years |
|
all cheese results from |
lactic acid fermentation of milk producing curd |
|
holes in swiss cheese is due to |
gas production by propionibacteria present during ripening |
|
mold are used in the production of cheeses like |
penecillium to make blue cheese |
|
what is used in chocolate |
candida rugosa hydrolyze the pectin and ferment sugars into ethyl alcohol and Co2, then lactic acid bacteria grow lowering PH which allows acetic acid bacteria to grow |
|
what denatures the proteins to give chocolate taste |
acetic acid |
|
how to make wine |
crushed into mush used sulfur dioxide to remove native microbes replace desired yeast bacteria ferment malice acid from the grape juice into lactic acid and co2 |
|
ehtanol is made by _____ for the purpose of ______ |
S cerevisea purpose of food/fuel |
|
acetone/butanol is made by ____ for the purpose of _____ |
C. acetobutylicum for food/fuel |
|
enzymes is made by ____ for the purpose of _____ |
aspergillus for chemical/pharmacutical production |
|
amino acids is made by ____ for the purpose of _____ |
corynedbacterium glutamicum for food flavor |
|
polysacharides is made by ____ for the purpose of _____ |
xanthomonas for plastics/paints |
|
vitamins is made by ____ for the purpose of _____ |
ashbya for food |
|
antibiotics is made by ____ for the purpose of _____ |
penecillium for medicine |
|
global energy consumption is expected to increase ___% by 2030 |
71 |
|
whats used for transportation |
petroleum |
|
what used for power and heat |
coal and methane |
|
fossil fuels produce |
green house gases |
|
microbial energy conversion includes the transformation of organic materials into |
biofuels (ethanol/hydrogen) by microbes |
|
most common source of biomass for ETOH |
corn |
|
crop residues |
plant materials left in fields after harvest and contain cellulose and hemicellulose looking to see if can use these but theres no single microbe that can ferment all these products |
|
ethanol disadvantages |
absorbs water contains low energy yield (may expend more energy to produce it) |
|
fermentation does make a lot of |
hydrogen |
|
hydrogen |
advantages:3x more potential energy then gasoline can be made by diverse group of microbes disadvantages: storage and distribution problem (because its a gas) can't be mixed with gasoline need more time to develop it and do research |
|
ways to make hydrogen |
fermentation, oxygenic photosynthesis, anoxygenic photoheterotrophs |
|
algal products |
remove c02 from atmosphere as they grow so these plants are built near manufacturers that produce CO2 can be made in plants we already have |
|
rhizobia is sold for inoculation of legume seeds to ensure |
efficient nodulation and nitrogen fixation |
|
diatoms can be used for |
making optical, catalytic or electrical materials |
|
bacteria harboring magnetosomes convert |
iron to magnetite surrounded by membrane membranes allow attachment of molecules like enzymes of antibodies |
|
oncolytic viruses |
use viruses to infect and kill cancer cells, due to specific markers and high replication rates examples are measles for ovarian cancer herpes for melenoma vaccinia for liver cancer |
|
gene therapy |
use viruses to deliver genes to individuals with genetic defects examples are adenovirus for blindness HIV for adrenoleukodystophy |
|
GMO inserted genes include resistance to |
herbicides and inscents, soybeans have been made to have lower sat fat |
|
bacterium that causes tumors in plants through insertion of bacterial genes in the plant genome |
argobacterium tumefaciens |
|
this insertion takes place by |
larges conjugative plasmid called ti which transfer then genes |
|
since Ti discovery of being tumor inducing agents it has been |
modified for remove non-essential and tumor inducing elements and whatever genes is of inteeres |
|
bacteria can take Ti plasmid and |
deliver it to he plant cells during infection can be used in dicots but not monocots |
|
what are used to kill insects |
bacteria, fungi, viruses |
|
B thuringiensis does what |
causes insect lysis when gets into membrane its marketed at BT |
