Received July 25, 2009. Revised Manuscript Received September 2, 2009 Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) were shown to induce very specific oriented growth of simple organic and inorganic crystals. Here we present a detailed study of the mechanism by which SAMs control the oriented nucleation by examining a more complex case of crystallization of bifunctional organic molecules. Malonic and succinic acids were grown on the SAMs of HS(CH2)10CO2H and HS(CH2)11CO2H supported on gold films. Each SAM induced a very controlled, specific orientation of the crystals. The preferred nucleating planes always exhibited an alignment of one of the carboxylic acid groups in the molecules of the growing crystal with the carboxylic acid groups on the surface of the SAMs. These results suggest that the translation of the structural information through the interface occurs by stereochemical registry such that the functional groups in the SAM play the role of an oriented surrogate layer for the nucleating crystal. These findings are very important to the understanding of the underlying principles by which various organic surfaces;and most probably also biological templates;control the crystallization process.

  • Succinic Acid
    ENVIRONMENTAL FACTSHEET: SUCCINIC ACID PRODUCT INFORMATION Succinic acid (COOH(CH2)2COOH) is a carboxylic acid used in food (as an acidulant), pharmaceutical (as an excipient), personal care (soaps) and chemical (pesticides, dyes and lacquers) industries. Bio-based succinic acid is seen as an important platform chemical for the production of biodegradable plastics and as a substitute of several chemicals (such as adipic acid) [1]. Lignocellulosic Crops and Starch Crops Sugar Crops Today succinic acid is mainly produced Type of Type Biomass Residues from fossil resources through maleic acid hydrogenation. It can also be produced through fermentation of sugars. In that Cultivation and Harvesting case, in addition to succinic acid, other Biomass carboxylic acids (such as lactic acid, formic Production acid, propionic acid) and alcohols (such as ethanol) are also obtained. The production Starch Sugar Pretreatment Extraction & Extraction & ratios of these by-product compounds Separation Separation depend on the microorganism strain used and on the operation conditions. Several Hemicellulose Food Food Feed companies and industrial consortiums Lignin Cellulose Starch Feed Saccharose started bio-based production of succinic acid at demonstration scale (up to 70 ktonnes/year of full capacity, per Hydrolysis production plant [2]). Two strategies are being used for succinic acid fermentation [1]: (1) Use of bacteria strains, isolated Glucose from rumen. This strains are excellent Biomass Conversion Biomass natural succinic acid producers and their yields can be improved, though metabolic engineering; (2) Use of well-known Fermentation industrial microorganisms (such as Escherichia coli or Saccharomyces cervisiae) and modify their minor succinic acid production capability into high yields Succinic Acid through metabolic engineering.

In the eukaryotic system, the TCA cycle occurs completely in mitochondria, while the intermediates of the TCA cycle are retained inside mitochondria due to their polarity and hydrophilicity. Under cell stress conditions, mitochondria can become disrupted and release their contents, which act as danger signals in the cytosol. Of note, the TCA cycle intermediates may also leak from dysfunctioning mitochondria and regulate cellular processes. Increasing evidence shows that the metabolites of the TCA cycle are substantially involved in the regulation of immune responses. In this review, we aimed to provide a comprehensive systematic overview of the molecular mechanisms of each TCA cycle intermediate that may play key roles in regulating cellular immunity in cell stress and discuss its implication for immune activation and suppression.

  • Production of Succinic Acid by E.Coli from Mixtures of Glucose
    2005:230 CIV MASTER’S THESIS Production of Succinic Acid by E. coli from Mixtures of Glucose and Fructose ANDREAS LENNARTSSON MASTER OF SCIENCE PROGRAMME Chemical Engineering Luleå University of Technology Department of Chemical Engineering and Geosciences Division of Biochemical and Chemical Engineering 2005:230 CIV • ISSN: 1402 - 1617 • ISRN: LTU - EX - - 05/230 - - SE Abstract Succinic acid, derived from fermentation of renewable feedstocks, has the possibility of replacing petrochemicals as a building block chemical. Another interesting advantage with biobased succinic acid is that the production does not contribute to the accumulation of CO2 to the environment. The produced succinic acid can therefore be considered as a “green” chemical. The bacterium used in this project is a strain of Escherichia coli called AFP184 that has been metabolically engineered to produce succinic acid in large quantities from glucose during anaerobic conditions. The objective with this thesis work was to evaluate whether AFP184 can utilise fructose, both alone and in mixtures with glucose, as a carbon source for the production of succinic acid. Hydrolysis of sucrose yields a mixture of fructose and glucose in equal ratio. Sucrose is a common sugar and the hydrolysate is therefore an interesting feedstock for the production of succinic acid. Fermentations with an initial sugar concentration of 100 g/L were conducted. The sugar ratios used were 100 % fructose, 100 % glucose and a mixture with 50 % fructose and glucose, respectively. The fermentation media used was a lean, low- cost media based on corn steep liquor and a minimal addition of inorganic salts. Fermentations were performed with a 12 L bioreactor and the acid and sugar concentrations were analysed with an HPLC system.

  • BIO-BASED SUCCINIC ACID by Sudeep Vaswani (December 2010)
    PEP Review 2010-14 BIO-BASED SUCCINIC ACID By Sudeep Vaswani (December 2010) ABSTRACT In a U.S. Department of Energy report published in 2004, succinic acid was identified as one of the top twelve building-block chemicals that could be produced from renewable feedstocks. Currently, succinic acid uses a petroleum-derived maleic anhydride route for its production, which is both costly and environmentally unfriendly. As a result, there is a growing interest towards discovering a more economical and environmentally cleaner way for its production. One methodology that has been receiving increased attention is the use of bacterial microorganisms. This technology takes advantage of the fermentative capabilities of various microorganisms and utilizes a renewable substrate as a carbon source for acid formation. Succinic acid production from microbial organisms has tremendous potential as a building block for commodity chemicals with applications in several industries. Some of the succinic acid derivatives include: tetrahydrofuran (THF), 1,4-butanediol (BDO), succindiamide, succinonitrile, dimethylsuccinate, N-methyl-pyrrolidone, 2-pyrrolidone, and 1,4-diaminobutane. This PEP Review discusses and provides a detailed techno-economic analysis for bio-based succinic acid production with a capacity of 82.7 million lb/year (37,500 mt/yr). Additionally, it covers information regarding genetic engineering mechanisms, regulation of specific enzymes, and purification of succinic acid to provide a cost-competitive alternative to fossil fuels. © SRI Consulting PEP Review 2010-14 A private report by the Process Economics Program Review No. 2010-14 BIO-BASED SUCCINIC ACID by Sudeep Vaswani December 2010 Menlo Park, California 94025 SRIC agrees to assign professionally qualified personnel to the preparation of the Process Economics Program’s reports and will perform the work in conformance with generally accepted professional standards.

Production of Malonic Acid through the Fermentation of Glucose Abstract The overall process to produce malonic acid has not drastically changed in the past 50 years. The current process is damaging to the environment and costly, requiring high market prices. Lygos, Inc., a lab in Berkeley, California, has published a patent describing a way to produce malonic acid through the biological fermentation of genetically modified easty cells. This proposed technology is appealing as it is both better for the environment and economically friendly. For the process discussed in this report, genetically modified Pichia Kudriavzevii yeast cells will be purchased from the Lygos lab along with the negotiation of exclusive licensing rights to the technology. The cells will be grown in fermentation vessels, while being constantly fed oxygen, glucose and fermentation media. The cells will excrete malonic acid in the 101 hour fermentation process.
