The lignocellulosic biomass from sugar cane bagasse and from other raw materials is a highly promising material for the generation of renewable and environmentally positive fuels. In terms of performance and environmental advantages, the best option for converting this biomass into soluble sugars to produce ethanol is the enzymatic catalysis. However, this is also the most expensive step …
The lignocellulosic biomass, such as sugar cane bagass, holds a promise of renewable and environmentally positive fuel. The best option to the conversion of this biomass to soluble fermentable sugars and, then, to ethanol, is the enzymatic catalysis. Because of the low efficiency and high cost of the available enzymatic cocktails, this is also the most expensive step on the second gener…
The project seeks to investigate the interactions of articaine, a potent local anesthetics widely used in medical and dental surgery applications, with a biomembrane model consinsting of a POPC bilayer, using Molecular Dynamics computer simulations under biologically relevant thermodymamic conditions. We intend to investigate the tranversal distribution of the drug wihin the bilayer, and …

Enzymatic catalysis is considered the best strategy to saccharification of biomass to ethanol production in an environmentally friendly way. As so, great efforts are being invested in the optimization of the biocatalytical processes. Computational methods represents a valuable tool to make progress in this area. In this project, we propose making use of multiscale simulations to explore…
