Abstract
Agricultural plantations in Indonesia and Malaysia yield substantial waste, necessitating proper disposal to address environmental concerns. Yet, these wastes, rich in starch and lignocellulosic content, offer an opportunity for value-added product development, particularly amino acid production. Traditional methods often rely on costly commercial enzymes to convert biomass into fermentable sugars for amino acid production. An alternative, consolidated bioprocessing, enables the direct conversion of agricultural biomass into amino acids using selected microorganisms. This review provides a comprehensive assessment of the potential of agricultural biomass in Indonesia and Malaysia for amino acid production through consolidated bioprocessing. It explores suitable microorganisms and presents a case study on using Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051 to produce 9.56 mg/mL of amino acids directly from pineapple plant stems. These findings contribute to the advancement of sustainable amino acid production methods using agricultural biomass especially in Indonesia and Malaysia through consolidated bioprocessing, reducing waste and enhancing environmental sustainability.

Abstract
Microemulsions, as thermodynamically stable mixtures of oil, water, and surfactant, are known and have been studied for more than 70 years. However, even today there are still quite a number of unclear aspects, and more recent research work has modified and extended our picture. This review gives a short overview of how the understanding of microemulsions has developed, the current view on their properties and structural features, and in particular, how they are related to applications. We also discuss more recent developments regarding nonclassical microemulsions such as surfactant-free (ultraflexible) microemulsions or ones containing uncommon solvents or amphiphiles (like antagonistic salts). These new findings challenge to some extent our previous understanding of microemulsions, which therefore has to be extended to look at the different types of microemulsions in a unified way. In particular, the flexibility of the amphiphilic film is the key property to classify different microemulsion types and their properties in this review. Such a classification of microemulsions requires a thorough determination of their structural properties, and therefore, the experimental methods to determine microemulsion structure and dynamics are reviewed briefly, with a particular emphasis on recent developments in the field of direct imaging by means of electron microscopy. Based on this classification of microemulsions, we then discuss their applications, where the application demands have to be met by the properties of the microemulsion, which in turn are controlled by the flexibility of their amphiphilic interface. Another frequently important aspect for applications is the control of the rheological properties. Normally, microemulsions are low viscous and therefore enhancing viscosity has to be achieved by either having high concentrations (often not wished for) or additives, which do not significantly interfere with the microemulsion. Accordingly, this review gives a comprehensive account of the properties of microemulsions, including most recent developments and bringing them together from a united viewpoint, with an emphasis on how this affects the way of formulating microemulsions for a given application with desired properties.

Abstract
Cellulolytic enzymes can readily access the cellulosic component of lignocellulosic biomass after the removal of lignin during biomass pretreatment. The enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose is necessary for generating monomeric sugars, which are then fermented into ethanol. In our study, a combination of a deep eutectic (DE) mixture (of 2-aminoethanol and tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide) and a cyclic ether (tetrahydrofuran) was used for selective delignification of rice straw (RS) under mild conditions (100 °C). Pretreatment with DE-THF solvent system caused ~ 46% delignification whereas cellulose (~ 91%) and hemicellulose (~ 67%) recoveries remained higher. The new solvent system could be reused upto 10 subsequent cycles with the same effectivity. Interestingly, the DE-THF pretreated cellulose showed remarkable enzymatic hydrolysability, despite an increase in its crystallinity to 72.3%. Contrary to conventional pretreatments, we report for the first time that the enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated cellulose is enhanced by the removal of lignin during DE-THF pretreatment, notwithstanding an increase in its crystallinity. The current study paves way for the development of newer strategies for biomass depolymerization with DES based solvents.
