Monitoring of Metabolic Compounds from Degradation of Petrochemicals using Indigenous Consortium of Pseudomonas Strains

Ayogu, C.V^*, Ifeanyi, V.O., Obasi, N. P.

This study was performed to examine the potential of indigenous consortium of Pseudomonas strains by assessing the metabolic compounds from degradation of petrochemical contaminated soil. Native microorganisms were isolated using standard microbiological procedures and molecular identification technique. The physiochemical analysis was conducted...

Study of Microbial Succession during Bioethanol Production from Waste Corn Cob using Indigenous Organisms

Ifeanyi, V.O.^*, Obasi, N. P., Ayogu, C.V

The identity, diversity and dynamics of bacterial and fungal communities involved in the production of bioethanol from corn waste (corn cob) were studied. Corn cob was pretreated and hydrolyzed using concentrated H2SO4 then, neutralized with NaOH to pH6.5. The corn waste was introduced as source of indigenous organisms and fermentation was done ...

Evaluation Of Bacterial Profile And Proximate Analysis Of Corn Waste

Obasi, Nnenna Patric^*, Ifeanyi, Virginia O., Ayogu, C.V

Corn waste contains moisture, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin which make it a good raw material for making substrate in the production of organic acids with the aid of bacteria. These bacteria, during metabolism are able to produce acids that can be used as solvents. The proximate analysis of corn waste (corn cob) was determined using AOAC m...
