  3. Principles of Lentikats Biotechnology

  4. What is a Lentikats Biocatalyst? Unique shape of the matrix and the original principle of immobilisation enable the encapsulation of free enzymes or microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, fungi) in a stable porous PVA (polyvinylalcohol) carrier. The carrier‘s advantages are: Excellent physio-mechanical characteristics that provide for long-term mechanical stability Low biodegradability Zero toxicity Lentikats Biocatalyst enables easy separation of enzymes and microorganisms from the surrounding media and therefore it can be reused multiple times. Biotechnologies are changing the world…

  5. Lentikats Biocatalyst Advantages of using PVA as a matrix for encapsulation: inexpensive, non-toxic polymerization under optimal conditions, cell conservation enables creation of hydrogels with excellent mechanical properties no side effects in processes large capacity for cell building easily supervised processes stable processes easy separation from bulk media

  7. How does Lentikats Biocatalyst function? Due to its maximum surface and at the same time minimum volume of the Lentikats Biocatalyst, the diffusion limitations associated with the transport of the substrate into the lens and the product out of the lens are significantly reduced.

  8. Production of Lentikats Biocatalyst

  15. Which substrates canbeusedforLentikats Biotechnology? Lentikats Biocatalysts provide a solution for the production of bioethanol from the following substrates: • Molasses, beet juice and sugar cane • Starch-containing (cereal) materials (corn, wheat, etc.) • Ligno-cellulose containing materials (straw, pollard…)

  16. Our products • Lentikats Biocatalyst for thefermentation of sucrose, glucose and lactose solutions (immobilized bacteria Zymomonas mobilis, yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Kluyveromyces sp.) • Lentikats Biocatalyst for the2nd step of hydrolyses of liquefied starch solution (immobilized enzyme glukoamylase) • Lentikats Biocatalyst forthe production of inverted sugar from molasses (immobilized enzyme invertase) Energy is all around us……the key is to obtain it effectively… …and protect the environment at the same time…
