Effect of electroporation on microbial cell wall to extract lipid

Nowadays, fossil fuels are still the primary energy sources but it cannot hold for a lifetime. Therefore, to overcome this limitation, biofuel is considered as a sustainable solution. A number of methods have been developed for producing biodiesel but with traditional method its take more time and a...

A number of methods have been developed for producing biodiesel but with traditional method its take more time and associated with usage of huge amount of toxic solvents.
