Question

State two Secondary standard oxidants and briefly describe each one.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The secondary alcohol, isopropanol, is an important chemical used for sustainable production of fuels and other chemicals. Many microbes such as Clostridium and genetically engineered E. coli and yeast strains are known for isopropanol production. Liang et al. performed CRISPR Enabled Trackable Genome Engineering to integrate a gene circuit of isopropanol biosynthetic pathway in E. coli. To identify superior designer strain for isopropanol production, about 1000 engineered variants were screened for optimization of codon usage, copy number, and translation initiation rates. Isopropanol production was achieved at the titers of 7.1 g
