A system and method for a metal sequestration composition comprising combining a galactaric salt or galactaric acid with a metalloid oxyanion, and an alkali compound. The system and method enable the production of a metal sequestration composition that either alone or in combination with other functional components (e.g., surfactants, solvents, pH modifiers) provide water treatment or cleaning compositions.

Galactarate based metal sequestration composition

Disclosed herein are prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes, includingand, genetically altered to biosynthesize tryptamine and tryptamine derivatives. The microbes of the disclosure may be engineered to contain plasmids and stable gene integrations containing sufficient genetic information for conversion of an anthranilate or an indole to a tryptamine. The fermentative production of substituted tryptamines in a whole-cell biocatalyst may be useful for cost effective production of these compounds for therapeutic use.
