Currently obtained from glycerol through microbial fermentation, the demand of 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (DHA) has significantly grown during the course of the last decade, driven by the consumer passion for a tan and increasing awareness of UV photodamage to the skin caused by prolonged exposure to the sun. We provide an updated bioeconomy perspective into a valued bioproduct (DHA), whose supply and production from glycerol, we argue in this study, will rapidly expand and diversify, with important global health benefits.
目前，1,3 - 二羟基丙酮（DHA）是通过微生物发酵从甘油中获取的。在过去十年中，由于消费者对晒黑的热衷以及对长期暴露于阳光下导致皮肤紫外线光损伤的认识不断提高，DHA的需求显著增长。我们从生物经济的角度对一种有价值的生物产品（DHA）进行了更新阐述。在本研究中，我们认为，DHA由甘油供应和生产的情况将迅速扩展并多样化，从而为全球健康带来重要益处。
