From mining to magnet manufacturing, the process for refining rare-earth elements is complex and intensive. The supply chain for such critical ...

A team of researchers led by the University of California San Diego has discovered a new way to make yeast cells more efficient "factories" for producing valuable plant compounds. The advance could ...

Yeast reactors also operate on much larger scales than enzyme-based ones, which could allow for efficient mass production of tagatose, Jin said. "Another advantage is that our yeast-based process can ...

Researchers at the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in Brazil, in collaboration with colleagues at Harvard University in the United States, conducted an innovative study of the DNA and ...

Industrial yeasts are a powerhouse of protein production, used to manufacture vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, and other useful compounds. In a new study, MIT chemical engineers have harnessed artificial ...

"Another advantage is that our yeast-based process can use whey indirectly. Whey is an inevitable byproduct of the cheese and Greek yogurt manufacturing processes as a raw material," Jin said. "Due to ...
