Bioconversion, genetically engineered strains

For biosynthesis and genetic regulation, see The use of genetically engineered strains of Strepto-myces avermitilis and bioconversion are gaining significance for the preparation of new A. derivatives. Detection Quantitative determination of A. in animal food, forms of administration, and biological samples by HPLC °. 

Whereas the fermentation of glucose can be carried out efficiently, the bioconversion of the pentose fraction out of lignocellulosic feedstocks and residues presents a challenge. A lot of attention has therefore been focused on genetically engineering strains that can efficiently utilize both glucose and pentose and convert them to useful compounds. The metabolic engineering objectives so far have...
