Biofuel bacteria
Biofuel bacteria. Petri dish containing colonies of recombinant (genetically modified) Streptomyces bacteria (red) that may produce cellulase. This is the enzyme that breaks down cellulose (the primary structural material in plants). Bacteria that can produce cellulase, or similar enzymes, are able to ferment plant cellulose to produce ethanol for use as a fuel. Ethanol is added to petrol to improve vehicle performance and reduce air pollution. Fuels produced by biological means (biofuels) are renewable, unlike fossil fuels. The technology has been developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, Colorado, USA

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the potential of biofuel bacteria in revolutionizing our energy industry. In this image, a Petri dish is filled with vibrant red colonies of recombinant Streptomyces bacteria. These genetically modified microbes have been engineered to produce cellulase, an enzyme responsible for breaking down cellulose - the primary structural material found in plants. The significance of these bacteria lies in their ability to ferment plant cellulose and convert it into ethanol, a renewable fuel source. Ethanol is commonly added to petrol as it not only enhances vehicle performance but also reduces air pollution. Unlike fossil fuels, which are finite and contribute to environmental degradation, biofuels offer a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative. Developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colorado, USA, this groundbreaking technology represents a major breakthrough in the field of genetic engineering and bioenergy research. By harnessing the power of microbial organisms like Streptomyces bacteria, scientists are paving the way for a greener future. This mesmerizing print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation as we strive towards finding cleaner and more efficient ways to meet our energy needs. It encapsulates both the beauty of scientific exploration and its potential impact on shaping a more sustainable world for generations to come.
