The Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (2-OGDs) catalyze the oxidation of substrates ranging from small molecules to large biomolecules with concomitant oxidation of co-substrate (2-oxoglutarate) into succinate. In the present study, we reported a coupled colorimetric assay that can be generally applied to

This study constitutes the first-proof-of-concept of a methane biorefinery based on the multi-production of high profit margin substances (ectoine, hydroxyectoine, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and exopolysaccharides (EPS)) using methane as the sole carbon and energy source. Two bubble column bioreactors were operated
