Lactose-assimilating yeasts with high fatty acid accumulation uncovered by untargeted bioprospecting

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The authors used untargeted bioprospecting to discover evolutionary diverse yeasts in tropical West Africa, one of the most species-rich but, in terms of yeast, least explored regions (Rosa et_al, 2023). The authors show that some strains produce high amounts of lipids from lactose, which can be further improved in by extensive process optimization and strain development. The analysis aimed to detect media components and metabolites using an Aminex HPX-87H carbohydrate analysis column (Bio-Rad Laboratories).
• Who: Posted Date July and collaborators from the Chalmers University of Technology University of Nigeria have published . . .
