Degradation of Lignin in Agricultural Residues by locally Isolated Fungus Neurospora discreta (2016)
Journal Article
Pamidipati, S., & Ahmed, A. (2017). Degradation of Lignin in Agricultural Residues by locally Isolated Fungus Neurospora discreta. Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 181(4), 1561-1572. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12010-016-2302-6

Locally isolated fungus, Neurospora discreta, was evaluated for its ability to degrade lignin in two agricultural residues: cocopeat and sugarcane bagasse with varying lignin concentrations and structures. Using Klason’s lignin estimation, high-perfo... Read More about Degradation of Lignin in Agricultural Residues by locally Isolated Fungus Neurospora discreta.

Improved ammonium removal from industrial wastewater through systematic adaptation of wild type Chlorella pyrenoidosa (2016)
Journal Article
Ahmed, A., Jyothi, N., & Ramesh, A. (2017). Improved ammonium removal from industrial wastewater through systematic adaptation of wild type Chlorella pyrenoidosa. Water Science and Technology, 75(1), 182-188. https://doi.org/10.2166/wst.2016.507

A single step process is proposed for ammonium removal from nitrogenous industrial effluents, with a concomitant generation of algal biomass. A microalgal strain found in the effluent treatment plant of a fertilizer industry in Mumbai, India was syst...
