  • Cellulases from extremely thermophilic bacteria

    Sharrock, Keith R.; Sissons, Christopher H.; Daniel, Roy M.; Morgan, Hugh W. (New Zealand Institute of Chemistry, 1983)
    Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on earth, and is the major component of urban waste. Thus cellulose must be seen as a very significant renewable source of chemical foodstocks when fossil fuels become restricted.

  • Comparison of cellulolytic activities in Clostridium thermocellum and Three thermophilic, cellulolytic anaerobes

    Reynolds, Paul H.S.; Sissons, Christopher H.; Daniel, Roy M.; Morgan, Hugh W. (American Society for Microbiology, 1986)
    Avicelase, carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), and β-glucosidase activities have been compared between Clostridium thermocellum and three extremely thermophilic, cellulolytic anaerobes, isolates TP8, TP11, and KT8. The three ...

  • Isolation of cellulolytic anaerobic extreme thermophiles from New Zealand thermal sites

    Sissons, Christopher H.; Sharrock, Keith R.; Daniel, Roy M.; Morgan, Hugh W. (American Society for Microbiology, 1987)
    Avicel enrichment cultures from 47 thermal-pool sites in the New Zealand Rotorua-Taupo region were screened for growth and carboxymethyl cellulase activity at 75°C. Eight anaerobic cellulolytic cultures were obtained. The ...
