Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Sago waste which has not been fully utilised is a potential substrate for biotechnological applications. This study is concerned with hydrogen gas production by Escherichia coli (E. coli) using dark fermentation and sago waste as the substrate. Glucose content after acid pre-treatment process for sago waste at 90°C for 40 minutes was 2.150 g/L. In

Metabolic Flux Balance Analysis of the Growth of Arabidopsis Thaliana Cell Suspension Cultures
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A stoichiometric model was developed for the application of metabolic flux balance analysis (FBA) which consisted of the primary metabolic network of Arabidopsis thaliana (A. thaliana). The basic metabolic model involved 149 metabolites and 178 reactions that represent the main carbon metabolism towards the formation of biomass. Assuming pseudo-ste
