Dietrich K, Dumont M, Del Rio L, Orsat V
N Biotechnol . 2018 Nov; 49:161-168. PMID: 30465907
In emerging bioeconomies, the compostable biopolymers polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are desirable products due to their similarity to petropolymers. While industrial PHA production has been growing rapidly, obtaining a cheap and sustainable...

Biomacromolecules . 2017 Nov; 19(1):188-200. PMID: 29182307
Softwood hemicellulose hydrolysates are a cheap source of sugars that can be used as a feedstock to produce polyhydroxybutyrates (PHB), which are biobased and compostable bacterial polyesters. To assess the...

Del Rio L, Chandra R, Saddler J
Bioresour Technol . 2012 Jan; 107:235-42. PMID: 22243924
To determine the effect of fibre size on enzymatic hydrolysis, organosolv-pretreated lodgepole pine was size-fractionated into six substrates ranging in average size from 0.20 to 3.4mm. Other than the fines...

Del Rio L, Chandra R, Saddler J
Biotechnol Bioeng . 2011 Feb; 108(7):1549-58. PMID: 21337324
Organosolv-pretreated Lodgepole pine substrates were physically and chemically treated to increase their hydrophilicity and swelling as these are two substrate attributes which have been shown to improve cellulolytic hydrolysis. Surprisingly,...

Del Rio L, Chandra R, Saddler J
Appl Biochem Biotechnol . 2009 Oct; 161(1-8):1-21. PMID: 19820908
Mountain pine beetle-killed lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) chips were pretreated using the organosolv process, and their ease of subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis was assessed. The effect of varying pretreatment chemicals and...

Hadwin A, Del Rio L, Pinto L, Painter M, Routledge R, Moore M
FEMS Microbiol Ecol . 2006 Jan; 55(1):68-78. PMID: 16420616
Naphthenic acids are a complex family of naturally occurring cyclic and acyclic carboxylic acids that are present in the acidic fraction of petroleum. Naphthenic acids are acutely toxic to aquatic...
