SGER: The Production of Fuel Hydrocarbons by Gliocladium sp.

0802666（Strobel）。 该SGER奖项旨在支持获得实验数据的研究，以证实最近分离的真菌菌株有能力将生物质转化为可用作替代燃料的碳氢化合物。 将通过应用GC/MS和PTR-MS技术并结合标准真实碳氢化合物的比较分析来获得数据。 此外，还将开展研究，以确定真菌生长的最佳条件和可作为碳氢化合物生产前体的最佳生物质基质。 本科生将参与研究。 结果将提交公开同行评审技术文献发表。

0802666 (Strobel). This SGER award is to support research to obtain experimental data to confirm that that a recently isolated fungal strain has the capability to convert biomass into hydrocarbons useful as alternative fuels. Data will be obtained by applying GC/MS and PTR-MS techniques in concert with comparative analyses of standard authentic hydrocarbons. In addition, studies will be launched to determine the best conditions for fungal growth and the best biomass substrates that may serve as precursors for hydrocarbon production. Undergraduates will participate in the research. Results will be submitted for publication in the open peer-reviewed technical literature.
