Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Biochemistry

His primary areas of investigation include Fermentation, Food science, Biochemistry, Ethanol fuel and Cellulose. He interconnects Chromatography, Biofuel, Butanol and Straw in the investigation of issues within Fermentation. His Food science research includes themes of Biomass, Amino acid and Agronomy.

The Biochemistry study which covers Bacteria that intersects with Manure. His Ethanol fuel research incorporates themes from Furfural and Distillers grains. His Hemicellulose and Cellulase study, which is part of a larger body of work in Cellulose, is frequently linked to Ruminant, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Dilute acid pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification and fermentation of wheat straw to ethanol (648 citations)
  • Bacteria engineered for fuel ethanol production: current status. (646 citations)
  • Production of butanol (a biofuel) from agricultural residues: Part I – Use of barley straw hydrolysate☆ (286 citations)

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

Michael A. Cotta mostly deals with Biochemistry, Fermentation, Food science, Bacteria and Microbiology. His studies deal with areas such as Cellulose, Hydrolysis, Hydrolysate and Butanol as well as Fermentation. His Food science study combines topics in areas such as Ethanol, Biofuel, Agronomy and Cellulase.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Rumen, Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens and Manure in addition to Bacteria. His Microbiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as 16S ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetic tree, Ribosomal RNA, Streptococcus bovis and Phylogenetics. His Ethanol fuel study also includes

  • Furfural which intersects with area such as Nuclear chemistry,
