Sugar is the "fuel" of the human body, providing it with energy (sometimes too much). Will it someday become an essential component of powering our four-wheeled darlings? 
Scientists from the University of California in Los Angeles have made a groundbreaking discovery. They managed to make the metabolic process more efficient, during which glucose is converted into acetyl coenzyme A, which is an important component of biofuels. Until now, in the case of the natural metabolic process (glycolysis), losses occurred in the form of carbon dioxide. However, the California team of biochemists managed to find a procedure in laboratory conditions in which losses are completely eliminated and glucose is entirely converted into the coenzyme. The production of biofuels from available natural raw materials has been the focus of scientists' interest for some time. Experts from the University of Berkeley and other scientific teams are also researching and improving the bacterial fermentation process; their effort is to achieve the production of biofuel from plant substances, such as grape sugar (glucose), starch, or beet sugar, through a chemical process that would not be too energy-intensive. How successful they will be, we will find out within five to ten years. And don't worry about missing it. When it happens, we at Greenhousing will let you know : ) red
