• Integrated solid-state enzymatic hydrolysis and solid-state fermentation for producing sustainable polyhydroxyalkanoates from low-cost agro-industrial residues

  Martínez-Avila, Oscar; Llimós Turet, Jordi; Ponsá Salas, Sergio (Elsevier, 2021)

  Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biodegradable bioplastics of interest as potential substitutes of petroleum-derived plastics that can be produced starting from lignocellulosic-derived residues. This study presents the ...
• Brewer’s spent grain as a no-cost substrate for polyhydroxyalkanoates production: assessment of pretreatment strategies and different bacterial strains

  Corchado-Lopo, Carlos; Martínez-Avila, Oscar; Marti Serrano, Elisabet; Llimós Turet, Jordi; Busquets Monsó, Anna M.; Kucera, Dan; Obruca, Stanislav; Llenas, Laia; Ponsá Salas, Sergio (Elsevier, 2021)

  Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polyesters of significant interest due to their biodegradability and properties similar to petroleum-derived plastics, as well as the fact that they can be produced from renewable sources ...
• Diagnosi de la prostitució a la Catalunya Central (comarques de l'Anoia, Bages i Osona)

  Ezquerra, Sandra; Venceslao Pueyo, Marta; Fernàndez Cuadros, Sònia; Fité Girvés, Margarida (DAE. Dones amb Empenta, 2020)

  L’exercici de la prostitució i el seu abordatge ha estat una qüestió de constants debats polítics, socials i acadèmics en els últims anys. Les polèmiques generades al voltant d’aquest fenomen divers i complex, ...
• Brewer’s spent grain biotransformation to produce lignocellulolytic enzymes and polyhydroxyalkanoates in a two-stage valorization scheme

  Llimós Turet, Jordi; Martínez-Avila, Oscar; Marti Serrano, Elisabet; Corchado-Lopo, Carlos; Llenas, Laia; Ponsá Salas, Sergio; Gea, Teresa (Springer, 2020)

  Lignocellulolytic enzymes from low-cost sources are gaining attention as a tool to reduce production costs. Such enzymes can be obtained sustainably by diverse fungal strains via solid-state fermentation (SSF) of ...
• Evaluation of Pre-treatments of Brewery’s Spent Grain for Growing Bacteria in the Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoates

  Mendez, Daniel A.; Marti Serrano, Elisabet; Puyuelo Sánchez, Belén; Colón Jordà, Joan; Ponsá Salas, Sergio (AIDIC, 2018)

  A suitable solution to solve the problems related to the conventional plastics is their replacement by biodegradable materials with similar properties such as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). PHAs ...
