Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Biochemistry

Matti Leisola mostly deals with Biochemistry, Phanerochaete, Chrysosporium, Enzyme and Organic chemistry. His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Stereochemistry and Lactic acid. His research combines Peroxidase and Phanerochaete.

His Chrysosporium research incorporates themes from Extracellular, Lignin peroxidase and Biodegradation. He usually deals with Lignin and limits it to topics linked to Molecular mass and Isozyme and Specific activity. Matti Leisola works mostly in the field of Pyrene, limiting it down to concerns involving Redox and, occasionally, Chromatography.

His most cited work include:

  • Oxidation of benzo(a)pyrene by extracellular ligninases of Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Veratryl alcohol and stability of ligninase. (247 citations)
  • Homology among multiple extracellular peroxidases from Phanerochaete chrysosporium. (188 citations)
  • Three-dimensional structures of thermophilic beta-1,4-xylanases from Chaetomium thermophilum and Nonomuraea flexuosa. Comparison of twelve xylanases in relation to their thermal stability. (165 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Biochemistry, Phanerochaete, Chromatography, Organic chemistry and Lignin are his primary areas of study. His Biochemistry study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Bioreactor. While the research belongs to areas of Bioreactor, he spends his time largely on the problem of Food science, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Lactic acid and Biotechnology.

His Phanerochaete research includes elements of Alcohol, Veratraldehyde, Chrysosporium and Metabolite. Matti Leisola has included themes like Peroxidase, Lignin peroxidase, Isoelectric point and Straw in his Lignin study. His study focuses on the intersection of Enzyme and fields such as Stereochemistry with connections in the field of Substrate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (38.03%)
  • Phanerochaete (19.01%)
  • Chromatography (17.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2015)?

  • Biochemistry (38.03%)
  • Food science (14.79%)
  • Bioreactor (10.56%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Matti Leisola mainly investigates Biochemistry, Food science, Bioreactor, Biotechnology and Rare sugar. As part of his studies on Biochemistry, Matti Leisola often connects relevant subjects like Lactobacillus plantarum. His research in the fields of Yeast extract overlaps with other disciplines such as Growth rate.

His Bioreactor research focuses on Packed bed and how it relates to Tray, Microbiology and Plastic bag. His work carried out in the field of Biotechnology brings together such families of science as Bifidobacterium longum and Substrate. In his work, Ribitol, Ribulose and Acetic acid bacteria is strongly intertwined with Sugar, which is a subfield of Rare sugar.

Between 2005 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • A rare sugar xylitol. Part II: biotechnological production and future applications of xylitol (161 citations)
  • A rare sugar xylitol. Part I: the biochemistry and biosynthesis of xylitol (110 citations)
  • Production of lignin modifying enzymes on industrial waste material by solid-state cultivation of fungi (54 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Rare sugar, Biochemistry, Industrial scale, Sugar and Food science. His work in Biochemistry covers topics such as Lactobacillus plantarum which are related to areas like Arabinose. His Industrial scale research encompasses a variety of disciplines, including Biosynthesis, Polyol, Biotechnology and Xylitol dehydrogenase.

Matti Leisola has researched Sugar in several fields, including Fermentation, Acetic acid bacteria, Ribitol and Ribulose. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Manganese peroxidase, Husk, Cerrena unicolor, Lignin and Industrial waste. His study in Metabolic engineering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Isomerase, Isomerase activity, Escherichia coli, Pentose and Ribose.
