Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2008.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study strives to improve two current industrial processes by making them more cost effective through the use of hydrolytic enzymes or microbial systems. The first process targeted is the industrial conversion of starch to ethanol. In the second process, hydrolytic enzymes are applied to the manufacturing of instant coffee. The engineering of microbial systems to convert starch to bio-ethanol in a one-step process may result in large cost reductions in current industrial processes. These reductions will be due to decre

A number of organisms have been screened for transglutaminase activity using biochemical assays directed towards TGase catalyzed reactions (amine incorporation and peptide cross-linking assay). Of those organisms screened, TGase was identified in a number of isolates including members of the Bac

Over the past few decades, rooibos tea and other related products have gained popularity due to their health promoting properties. These beneficial properties can partly be ascribed to the phenolic constituents that are trapped within the cellulolytic plant material of the tea leaves as glycoconjugated aroma and phenolic compounds.

Abstract:

Petroleum-based plastics have replaced many natural materials in their former applications. With their excellent properties, they have found widespread uses in almost every area of human life. However, the high recalcitrance of many synthetic plastics results in their long persistence in the environment, and the growing amount of plastic waste ending up in landfills and in the oceans has become a global concern. In recent years, a number of microbial enzymes capable of modifying or degrading recalcitrant synthetic polymers have been identified. They are emerging as candidates for the developme

The present thesis dealt with microbial communities derived from the gut of large herbivores which efficiently degrade lignocellulose. There are essentially no protocols for the cultivation of these microbiomes, which may differ from animal to animal. Here, a first protocol was assessed on the basis of the one for giant pandas, and applied to okapi and elephant. Faecal samples were collected at the Copenhagen zoo to prepare an inoculum (the gut microbiota) fed with either cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin or animal feed. Pure substrates were used to select different microbial sub-groups, while
