Poly-(3-hydroxybutyrate) production from whey by high-density cultivation of recombinant Escherichia coli 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Recombinant Escherichia coli strain GCSC 6576, harboring a high-copy-number plasmid containing the Ralstonia eutropha genes for polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthesis and the E. coli ftsZ gene, was employed to produce poly-(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) from whey. pH-stat fed-batch fermentation, using whey powder
as the nutrient feed, produced cellular dry weight and PHB concentrations of 109 g l−1 and 50 g l−1 respectively in 47 h. When concentrated whey solution containing 210 g l−1 lactose was used as the nutrient feed, cellular dry weight and PHB concentrations of 87 g l−1 and 69 g l−1 respectively could be obtained in 49 h by pH-stat fed-batch culture. The PHB content was as high as 80% of the cellular dry
weight. These results suggest that cost-effective production of PHB is possible by fed-batch culture of recombinant E. coli using concentrated whey solution as a substrate.

Poly(hydroxybutyric acid) (PHB) was produced by a selectant of Azotobacter beijerinckii in media containing only organic nitrogen sources such as N substrates. The chosen compounds were casein peptone, yeast extract,
casamino acids and urea, each combined with carbon substrates glucose or sucrose. The PHB was synthesized under growth-associated
conditions. The concentrations amounted to more than 50% of cell dry mass on casein peptone/glucose as well as urea/glucose
medium within 45 h fermentation time. Corresponding to these yields, productivities of about 0.8 g PHB l−1 h−1 were discovered. The highest values increased to 1.06 g PHB l−1 h−1 on casein peptone/glucose medium and 1.1 g PHB l−1 h−1 on yeast extract/glucose medium after a period of 20 h. It was found that oxygen limitation was essential for successful
product formation, as demonstrated earlier. These data from basic research may support further investigations into the use
of technical proteins from renewable sources as substrates for PHB production by a strain of A. beijerinckii.

2-Hydroxybenzothiazole (OBT) is present in wastewaters from the industrial production of the rubber vulcanization accelerator
2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT). We have achieved the first isolation of axenic bacterial cultures capable of the degradation
of OBT and growth on this substrate as the sole source of carbon, nitrogen and energy. All isolates had similar characteristics
corresponding to one particular isolate, which was studied in more detail and identified as Rhodococcus rhodochrous. The strains were also capable of degrading benzothiazole (BT) but not MBT or benzothiazole-2-sulphonate (BTSO3). OBT was degraded at a concentration of up to 600 mg · l−1. BT was toxic above 300 mg · l−1. MBT inhibited OBT degradation. Growth on OBT was not significantly different at pH values of between 6.3 and 7.9 or salt
concentrations between 1 % and 3 %. In shake flasks the cells clumped together, which resulted in a lower rate of oxygen transfer
and slower degradation as compared to cells grown on OBT in a stirred reactor.

Instead of the conventional carbon sources used for propionic acid biosynthesis, the utilization of glycerol is considered
here, since the metabolic pathway involved in the conversion of glycerol to propionic acid is redox-neutral and energetic.
Three strains, Propionibacterium acidipropionici, Propionibacterium acnes and Clostridium propionicum were tested for their ability to convert glycerol to propionic acid during batch fermentation with initially 20 g/l glycerol.
P. acidipropionici showed higher efficiency in terms of fermentation time and conversion yield than did the other strains. The fermentation
profile of this bacterium consisted in propionic acid as the major product (0.844 mol/mol), and in minimal by-products: succinic
(0.055 mol/mol), acetic (0.023 mol/mol) and formic (0.020 mol/mol) acids and n-propanol (0.036 mol/mol). The overall propionic acid productivity was 0.18 g l−1h−1. A comparative study with glucose and lactic acid as carbon sources showed both less diversity in end-product composition
and a 17% and 13% lower propionic acid conversion yield respectively than with glycerol. Increasing the initial glycerol concentration
resulted in an enhanced productivity up to 0.36 g l−1h−1 and in a maximal propionic acid concentration of 42 g/l, while a slight decrease of the conversion yield was noticed. Such
a propionic acid production rate was similar or higher than the values obtained with lactic acid (0.35 g l−1h−1) or glucose (0.28 g l−1h−1). These results demonstrated that glycerol is a carbon source of interest for propionic acid production.

The action of antibiotics on the anaerobic digestion process 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Antibiotics can disturb the production of biogas during anaerobic digestion. This study shows a systematic approach to understanding
how the different bacterial populations involved in the final conversion of organic matter into methane are inhibited by 15
antimicrobial agents with different specificities and modes of action. The results obtained show the following trends: (i)
some inhibitors, such as the macrolide erythromycin, lack any inhibitory effect on biogas production; (ii) some antibiotics,
with different specificities, have partial inhibitory effects on anaerobic digestion and decrease methane production by interfering
with the activity of propionic-acid- and butyric-acid-degrading bacteria,␣(e.g. antibiotics that interfere with cell wall
synthesis, RNA polymerase activity and protein synthesis, especially the aminoglycosides); (iii) the protein synthesis inhibitors
chlortetracycline (IC50 40 mg l−1) and chloramphenicol (IC50 15–20 mg l−1) are very powerful inhibitors of anaerobic digestion. The majority of the antibiotics tested lacked activity against acetoclastic
methanogens, being active only on the acetogenic bacteria. However, chloramphenicol and chlortetracycline could cause the
complete inhibition of the acetoclastic methanogenic archaea.

The effects of adding cellobiose on the transformation of vanillic acid to vanillin by two strains of Pycnoporus cinnabarinus MUCL39532 and MUCL38467 were studied. When maltose was used as the carbon source in the culture medium, very high levels
of methoxyhydroquinone were formed from vanillic acid. When cellobiose was used as the carbon source and/or added to the culture
medium of P. cinnabarinus strains on day 3 just before vanillic acid was added, it channelled the vanillic acid metabolism via the reductive route
leading to vanillin. Adding 3.5 g l−1 cellobiose to 3-day-old maltose cultures of P. cinnabarinus MUCL39532 and 2.5 g l−1 cellobiose to 3-day-old cellobiose cultures of P. cinnabarinus MUCL38467, yielded 510 mg l−1 and 560 mg l−1 vanillin with a molar yield of 50.2 % and 51.7 % respectively. Cellobiose may either have acted as an easily metabolizable
carbon source, required for the reductive pathway to occur, or as an inducer of cellobiose:quinone oxidoreductase, which is
known to inhibit vanillic acid decarboxylation.

Reduction of biomass in a bioscrubber for waste gas treatment by limited supply of phosphate and potassium ions 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Elimination of n-butanol from the gas phase was examined with a mixed culture in a compact bioscrubber. The extent of the cell concentration
was limited by the supply of n-butanol, phosphate or potassium, and the growth rate was determined by the dilution rate. With n-butanol as the limiting substrate the cellular yield was 0.53 g dry cell weight/g n-butanol. Phosphate limitation decreased this yield to 0.34 g and potassium limitation to 0.31 g dry cell weight/g n-butanol at a dilution rate of 0.1/h. Under these conditions n-butanol was eliminated from the gas phase by 84%–100%. In the same order of limitations the specific degradation rate ranged
from 0.19 g to 0.32 g n-butanol g dry cell weight−1 h−1. The fraction of n-butanol required to satisfy the needs for maintenance energy increased significantly depending on the limiting nutrient.
Limitation by n-butanol, phosphate or potassium caused a maintenance requirement of 0.07, 0.16 and 0.34 g n-butanol g dry cell weight−1 h−1, thus showing a fivefold increase. This high demand for the carbon source demonstrated the feasibility of operating a bioscrubber
under mineral limitation to reduce biomass formation significantly, and to maintain a high degree of substrate elimination
from the gas phase.

The continuous fermentation of 1,3-propanediol from glycerol by Clostridium butyricum was subjected to cell recycling by filtration using hollow-fibre modules made from polysulphone. The performance of the culture
system was checked at a retention ratio (dilution rate/bleed rate) of 5, dilution rates between 0.2 h−1 and 1.0 h−1 and glycerol input concentrations of 32 g l−1 and 56 g l−1. The near-to-optimum propanediol concentration of 26.5 g l−1 (for 56 g l−1 glycerol) was maintained up to a dilution rate of 0.5 h−1 and then decreased while the propanediol productivity was highest at 0.7 h−1. The productivity could be increased by a factor of four in comparison to the continuous culture without cell recycling.
By application of the model of Zeng and Deckwer [(1995) Biotechnol Prog 11: 71–79] for cultures under substrate excess, it
was shown that the limitations resulted exclusively from product inhibition and detrimental influences from the cell recycling
system, such as shear stress, were not involved.

Hydrogen production with high yield and high evolution rate by self-flocculated cells of Enterobacter aerogenes in a packed-bed reactor 总被引:6,自引:1,他引:5

Continuous hydrogen gas evolution by self-flocculated cells of Enterobacter aerogenes, a natural isolate HU-101 and its mutant AY-2, was performed in a packed-bed reactor under glucose-limiting conditions in
a minimal medium. The flocs that formed during the continuous culture were retained even when the dilution rate was increased
to 0.9 h−1. The H2 production rate increased linearly with increases in the dilution rate up to 0.67 h−1, giving maximum H2 production rates of 31 and 58 mmol l−1 h−1 in HU-101 and AY-2 respectively, at a dilution rate of more than 0.67 h−1. The molar H2 yield from glucose in AY-2 was maintained at about 1.1 at dilution rates between 0.08 h−1 and 0.67 h−1, but it decreased rapidly at dilution rates more than 0.8 h−1.

The use of a biological procedure for l-carnitine production as an alternative to chemical methods must be accompanied by an efficient and highly productive reaction
system. Continuous l-carnitine production from crotonobetaine was studied in a cell-recycle reactor with Escherichia coli O44 K74 as biocatalyst. This bioreactor, running under the optimum medium composition (25 mM fumarate, 5 g/l peptone), was
able to reach a high cell density (26 g dry weight/l) and therefore to obtain high productivity values (6.2 g l-carnitine l−1 h−1). This process showed its feasibility for industrial l-carnitine production. In addition, resting cells maintained in continuous operation, with crotonobetaine as the only medium
component, kept their biocatalytic capacity for 4 days, but the biotransformation capacity decreased progressively when this
particular method of cultivation was used.

The use of amiloride to uncouple branchial sodium and proton fluxes in the brown trout, Salmo trutta
I. D. Nelson W. T. W. Potts H. Huddart 《Journal of comparative physiology. B, Biochemical, systemic, and environmental physiology》1997,167(2):123-128
Resting proton, ammonium and sodium fluxes in Salmo trutta were 492.6 ± 19.5 (n = 29); 122.9 ± 34.2 (n = 28) and 277.1 ± 18.5 (n = 50) μmol · kg−1 · h−1, respectively. The resting transepithelial potential was found to be composed of three successive potentials, the outermost
averaging −7.36 ± 0.19mV, the second, −14.3 ± 1.4 mV and the third −37 ± 1.7 mV. Amiloride inhibits the proton, ammonium and
sodium fluxes in a dose-dependent manner at concentrations of 0.5 mmol · 1−1 and 0.1 mmol · l−1, but at 0.01 mmol · l−1, proton and ammonium fluxes remained at control levels whilst the sodium was reduced to 70.59 ± 7.29 μmol · kg−1 · h−1. The trans-epithelial potential was effected in a bi-phasic manner by 0.5 mmol · l−1 amiloride. An initial hyperpolarisation of ca. 6 mV was followed by a sustained depolarisation of ca. 14 mV (towards zero)
which persisted until the amiloride was washed off the gill. The initial hyperpolarisation was thought to reflect a rapid
inhibition of a positive inward sodium current and the subsequent depolarisation was due to the inhibition of a positive outward
current (proton) which would abolish the transepithelial potential. However, at 0.01 mmol · l−1 only the hyperpolarisation was seen, due to the inhibition of only the inward sodium current. Acetazolamide (0.1 mmol · l−1) was found to have no significant effect on the proton, ammonium and sodium fluxes. These results indicate that the proton
and sodium fluxes across the gill of the freshwater trout are not tightly linked. While this suggests that the trout gill
resembles the model of Ehrenburg et al. (1985) of sodium uptake in frog skin, the apical potentials measured in the pavement
epithelial cell(s) are too low to account for sodium uptake unless the activity of the sodium in the cells is very low.

The degradation of low concentrations of 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) and related halohydrins by whole cells and cell-free
extracts of soil bacteria has been investigated. Three bacteria (strains A1, A2, A4), isolated from the same soil sample,
were distinguished on the basis of cell morphology, growth kinetics and haloalcohol dehalogenase profiles. Strain A1, probably
an Agrobacterium sp., dehalogenated 1,3-DCP with the highest specific activity (0.33 U mg protein−1) and also had the highest affinity for 1,3-DCP (K
m, 0.1 mM). Non-growing cells of this bacterium dehalogenated low concentrations of 1,3-DCP with a first-order rate constant
(k
1) of 1.13 h−1 . The presence of a non-dehalogenating bacterium, strain G1 (tentatively identified as Pseudomonas mesophilius), did not enhance the dehalogenation rate of low 1,3-DCP concentrations. However, the mixed-species consortium of strains
A1 and G1 had greater stability than the mono-species culture at DCP concentrations above 1.0 gl−1.

In order to improve the production rate of l-lysine, a mutant of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 21513 was cultivated in complex medium with gluconate and glucose as mixed carbon sources. In a batch culture, this
strain was found to consume gluconate and glucose simultaneously. In continuous culture at dilution rates ranging from 0.2
h−1 to 0.25 h−1, the specific l-lysine production rate increased to 0.12 g g−1 h−1 from 0.1 g g−1 h−1, the rate obtained with glucose as the sole carbon source [Lee et al. (1995) Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 43:1019–1027]. It
is notable that l-lysine production was observed at higher dilution rates than 0.4 h−1, which was not observed when glucose was the sole carbon source. The positive effect of gluconate was confirmed in the shift
of the carbon source from glucose to gluconate. The metabolic transition, which has been characterized by decreased l-lysine production at the higher glucose uptake rates, was not observed when gluconate was added. These results demonstrate
that the utilization of gluconate as a secondary carbon source improves the maximum l-lysine production rate in the threonine-limited continuous culture, probably by relieving the limiting factors in the lysine
synthesis rate such as NADPH supply and/or phosphoenolpyruvate availability.

During January 1989, phytoplankton biomass and species composition were studied in a north / south transect at the Weddell / Scotia
Confluence (47°W), between 57° and 61°30′S. Results showed a diatom bloom in the Scotia Sea (chlorophyll a 1.9 μg l−1, particulate organic carbon 239 μg l−1), dominated by Fragilariopsis cylindrus, Dactyliosolen antarcticus and Chaetoceros dichaeta. Low chlorophyll a / phaeopigments ratios (about 1.4) and silicate concentrations (15 μmol l−1) suggested that this was an advanced bloom phase, probably linked to high grazing pressure. Minimum chlorophyll a values of 0.1–0.2 μg l−1 and particulate organic carbon 46 μg l−1 were found at the Weddell / Scotia Front and in a subsurface layer of the Weddell Sea Water. In the southern part of the
transect (61°30′S), in the Weddell Sea, a second surface maximum was found (chlorophyll a 0.9 μg l−1, particulate organic carbon 120 μg l−1), but with a different species composition, with Cryptomonas sp. dominant. Our results show a succession within the diatom community in the Weddell / Scotia Confluence Waters when comparing
the three EPOS legs. In the Weddell Sea from spring to summer, nanoflagellates, with only a minor contribution from diatoms,
persist over a long period with little change in the community structure. We suggest that the frontal system, together with
the receding ice edge and the grazing pressure of either krill or protozooplankton, are mainly responsible for the phytoplankton
distribution patterns found.

To test the feasibility of CO2 remediation by microalgal photosynthesis, a modified type of flat-plate photobioreactor [Hu et al. (1996) Biotechnol Bioeng 51:51–60] has been designed for cultivation of a high-CO2-tolerant unicellular green alga Chlorococcum littorale. The modified reactor has a narrow light path in which intensive turbulent flow is provided by streaming compressed air through
perforated tubing into the culture suspension. The length of the reactor light path was optimized for the productivity of
biomass. The interrelationship between cell density and productivity, as affected by incident light intensity, was quantitatively
assessed. Cellular ultrastructural and biochemical changes in response to ultrahigh cell density were investigated. The potential
of biomass production under extremely high CO2 concentrations was also evaluated. By growing C. littorale cells in this reactor, a CO2 fixation rate of 16.7 g CO2 l−1 24 h−1 (or 200.4 g CO2 m−2 24 h−1) could readily be sustained at a light intensity of 2000 μmol m−2 s−1 at 25 °C, and an ultrahigh cell density of well over 80 g l−1 could be maintained by daily replacing the culture medium.

The influence of ammonia on the anaerobic degradation of peptone by mesophilic and thermophilic populations of biowaste was
investigated. For peptone concentrations from 5 g l−1 to 20 g l−1 the mesophilic population revealed a higher rate of deamination than the thermophilic population, e.g. 552 mg l−1 day−1 compared to 320 mg l−1 day−1 at 10 g l−1 peptone. The final degree of deamination of the thermophilic population was, however, higher: 102 compared to 87 mg NH3/g peptone in the mesophilic cultures. If 0.5–6.5 g l−1 ammonia was added to the mesophilic biowaste cultures, deamination of peptone, degradation of its chemical oxygen demand
(COD) and formation of biogas were increasingly inhibited, but no hydrogen was formed. The thermophilic biowaste cultures
were most active if around 1 g ammonia l−1 was present. Deamination, COD degradation and biogas production decreased at lower and higher ammonia concentrations and
hydrogen was formed in addition to methane. Studies of the inhibition by ammonia of peptone deamination, COD degradation and
methane formation revealed a K
i (50%) for NH3 of 92, 95 and 88 mg l−1 at 37 °C and 251, 274 and 297 mg l−1 at 55 °C respectively. This indicated that the thermophilic flora tolerated significantly more NH3 than the mesophilic flora. In the mesophilic reactor effluent 4.6 × 108 peptone-degrading colony-forming units (cfu)/ml were culturable, whereas in the thermophilic reactor effluent growth of only
5.6 × 107 cfu/ml was observed.

Batch and continuous cultivation of Anaerobiospirillum succiniciproducens for the production of succinic acid from whey 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Batch and continuous cultivation of Anaerobiospirillum succiniciproducens were systematically studied for the production of succinic acid from whey. Addition of 2.5 g l−1 yeast extract and 2.5 g l−1 polypeptone per 10 g l−1 whey was most effective for succinic acid production from both treated and nontreated whey. When 20 g l−1 nontreated whey and 7 g l−1 glucose were used as cosubstrates, the yield and productivity of succinic acid reached at the end of fermentation were 95%
and 0.46 g (l h)−1, respectively. These values were higher than those obtained using nontreated whey alone [93% and 0.24 g (l h)−1 for 20 g l−1 whey]. Continuous fermentation of A. succiniciproducens at an optimal dilution rate resulted in the production of succinic acid with high productivity [1.35 g (l h)−1], high conversion yield (93%), and higher ratio of succinic acid to acetic acid (5.1:1) from nontreated whey.

Synthesis of two recombinant proteins (human glucagon and human growth hormone) was investigated in fed-batch cultures at
high cell concentrations of recombinant Escherichia coli. The glucose-limited growth was achieved without accumulation of metabolic by-products and hence the cellular environment
is presumed invariable during growth and recombinant protein synthesis. Via exponential feeding in the two-phase fed-batch
operation, the specific cell growth rate was successfully controlled at the desired rates and the fed-batch mode employed
is considered appropriate for examining the correlation between the specific growth rate and the efficiency of recombinant
product formation in the recombinant E. coli strains. The two recombinant proteins were expressed as fusion proteins and the concentration in the culture broth was increased
to 15 g fusion growth hormone l−1 and 7 g fusion glucagon l−1. The fusion growth hormone was initially expressed as soluble protein but seemed to be gradually aggregated into inclusion
bodies as the expression level increased, whereas the synthesized fusion glucagon existed as a cytoplasmic soluble protein
during the whole induction period. The stressful conditions of cultivation employed (i.e. high-cell-density cultivation at
low growth rate) may induce the increased production of various host-derived chaperones and thereby enhance the folding efficiency
of synthesized heterologous proteins. The synthesis of the recombinant fusion proteins was strongly growth-dependent and more
efficient at a higher specific growth rate. The mechanism linking specific growth rate with recombinant protein productivity
is likely to be related to the change in cellular ribosomal content.

Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) was produced by Ralstonia eutropha DSM 11348 (formerly Alicaligenes eutrophus) in media containing 20–30 g l−1 casein peptone or casamino acids as sole sources of nitrogen. In fermentations using media based on casein peptone, permanent
growth up to a cell dry mass of 65 g l−1 was observed. PHB accumulated in cells up to 60%–80% of dry weight. The lowest yields were found in media without any trace
elements or with casamino acids added only. The residual cell dry masses were limited to 10–15 g l−1 and did not contain PHB. The highest productivity amounted to 1.2 g PHB l−1 h−1. The mean molecular mass of the biopolymer was determined as 750 kDa. The proportion of polyhydroxyvalerate was less than
0.2% in PHB. The bioprocess was scaled up to a 300-l plant. During a fermentation time of 39 h the cells accumulated PHB to
78% w/w. The productivity was 0.98 g PHB l−1 h1.

A thermostable lipase was produced in continuous cultivation of a newly isolated thermophilic Bacillus sp. strain IHI-91 growing optimally at 65 °C. Lipase activity decreased with increasing dilution rate while lipase productivity
showed a maximum of 340 U l−1 h−1 at a dilution rate of 0.4 h−1. Lipase productivity was increased by 50% compared to data from batch fermentations. Up to 70% of the total lipase activity
measured was associated to cells and by-products or residual substrate. Kinetic and stoichiometric parameters for the utilisation
of olive oil were determined. The maximal biomass output method led to a saturation constant K
S of 0.88 g/l. Both batch growth data and a washout experiment yielded a maximal specific growth rate, μmax, of 1.0 h−1. Oxygen uptake rates of up to 2.9 g l−1h−1 were calculated and the yield coefficient, Y
X/O, was determined to be 0.29 g dry cell weight/g O2. From an overall material balance the yield coefficient, Y
X/S, was estimated to be 0.60 g dry cell weight/g olive oil.
