An efficient Agrobacterium-mediated protocol for the stable genetic transformation of Eschscholzia californica Cham. (California poppy) via somatic embryogenesis is reported. Excised cotyledons were co-cultivated with A. tumefaciens strain GV3101 carrying the pBI121 binary vector. Except for the co-cultivation medium, all formulations included 50 mg l−1 paromomycin as the selective agent and 200 mg l−1 timentin to eliminate the Agrobacterium. Four to five weeks after infection, paromomycin-resistant calli grew on 80% of explants in the presence of 2.0 mg l−1 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 0.1 mg l−1 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Calli were cultured on somatic embryogenesis induction medium containing 1.0 mg l−1 NAA and 0.5 mg l−1 BAP, and somatic embryos were visible on 30% of the paromomycin-resistant calli within 3–4 weeks. Three to four weeks after
the somatic embryos were transferred to phytohormone-free plant regeneration medium, 32% converted to paromomycin-resistant
plants. Detection of the neomycin phosphotransferase gene and high levels of β-glucuronidase (GUS) mRNA and enzyme activity, and the cytohistochemical localization of GUS activity in all plant tissues
confirmed the integrative transformation of the regenerated plants. The normal alkaloid profile of California poppy was unaffected
by the transformation process; thus, the reported protocol could serve as a valuable tool to investigate the molecular and
metabolic regulation of the benzophenanthridine alkaloid pathway.

Bioenergetics and RNA/DNA ratios in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio ) under hypoxia 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Zhou BS Wu RS Randall DJ Lam PK 《Journal of comparative physiology. B, Biochemical, systemic, and environmental physiology》2001,171(1):49-57
Hypoxia caused by eutrophication occurs over large areas in aquatic systems worldwide. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) exposed to hypoxia (1 mg · O2 · l−1 and 2 mg · O2 · l−1) for 1 week showed a significant reduction in feeding rate, respiration rate, faecal production and nitrogenous excretion
compared to those maintained at normoxia (7 mg · O2 · l−1). Fish exposed to hypoxia showed negative scope for growth (SfG), but no significant difference in the specific growth rate
was revealed after 1 week in both hypoxic groups. A significant reduction in RNA/DNA ratio was, however, clearly evident in
the white muscle of the 1 mg · O2 · l−1 treatment group, but not in the 2 mg · O2 · l−1 treatment group. Both specific growth rate and RNA/DNA ratio were significantly reduced when fish were exposed to severe
hypoxia (0.5 mg · O2 · l−1) for 4 weeks. At all levels of hypoxia, growth reduction was accompanied by a significant decrease in RNA/DNA ratio in white
muscle. Covariance analysis showed no significant difference between the slope of RNA/DNA ratio and growth rate under normoxic
conditions and 0.5 mg · O2 · l−1 for 4 weeks (F=1.036, P > 0.326), as well as 1.0 mg · O2 · l−1 and 2.0 mg · O2 · l−1 for 1 week (F = 0.457, P > 0.5), indicating that the RNA/DNA ratio serves as a biomarker of growth under all oxygen levels, at least under controlled
experimental conditions. SfG also appears to be more sensitive than the RNA/DNA ratio in responding to hypoxia in fish.

The use of silica gel prepared by sol-gel method and polyurethane foam as microbial carriers in the continuous degradation of phenol 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A mixed microbial culture was immobilized by entrapment into silica gel (SG) and entrapment/ adsorption on polyurethane foam
(PU) and ceramic foam. The phenol degradation performance of the SG biocatalyst was studied in a packed-bed reactor (PBR),
packed-bed reactor with ceramic foam (PBRC) and fluidized-bed reactor (FBR). In continuous experiments the maximum degradation
rate of phenol (q
s
max) decreased in the order: PBRC (598 mg l−1 h−1) > PBR (PU, 471 mg l−1 h−1) > PBR (SG, 394 mg l−1 h−1) > FBR (PU, 161 mg l−1 h−1) > FBR (SG, 91 mg l−1 h−1). The long-term use of the SG biocatalyst in continuous phenol degradation resulted in the formation of a 100–200 μm thick
layer with a high cell density on the surface of the gel particles. The abrasion of the surface layer in the FBR contributed
to the poor degradation performance of this reactor configuration. Coating the ceramic foam with a layer of cells immobilized
in colloidal SiO2 enhanced the phenol degradation efficiency during the first 3 days of the PBRC operation, in comparison with untreated ceramic
packing.

A novel, efficient, and simple protocol was developed on in vitro mass propagation and acclimatization of Gerbera jamesonii Bolus cv. Sciella, an ornamental plant with attractive flowers. Shoot tip was used as the primary explant for in vitro establishment in which Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with a low level of NAA (0.5 mg l−1) and BAP (1.5 mg l−1) promoted earliest axillary bud initiation within 5 d in 91.6% of the inoculants. Five axillary buds were initiated from
a single explant within 13 d after inoculation. A very high rate of shoot multiplication (14 shoots per inoculated axillary
bud) and proliferation was achieved when MS medium was fortified with a relatively higher level of BAP (2 mg l−1) and 60 mg l−1 ADS within 27 d of multiple shoot culture. A maximum number of well-developed roots per plant was observed in MS medium with
0.5 mg l−1 IAA in the next 26 d. In the easy low-cost acclimatization process of 20 d, a combination of sand, soil, cow urine, and tea
leaves extract (1:1:1:1; v/v) ensured 95% survival rate. Sixty-one well-acclimatized plants were obtained from a single shoot tip within 86 d. The sustained
multiple shoot culture for 15 mo paved the way toward the conservation of genetic resources as well as beneficial economics.
The clonal fidelity study of micropropagated and sustained cultured clones using ISSR primers ensured the continuous supply
of quality propagules retaining genetic uniformity. The in vitro-generated plants performed better over conventionally propagated plants in the field condition. 相似文献

Thermophilic acidification of dairy wastewater 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Acidification of simulated dairy wastewater was conducted in an upflow reactor at 55 °C. Results showed that the degree of
acidification decreased with the increase in chemical oxygen demand (COD) loading rate, from 60.8% at 4 g l−1 day−1 to 27.1% at 24 g l−1 day−1. Carbohydrate was readily degraded at all loading rates, but degradation of protein and lipid decreased with the increase
in loading rate. Most carbohydrate degradation occurred at the reactor bottom, whereas protein was degraded mainly after the
carbohydrate became depleted. The predominant acidification products were acetate, propionate, butyrate and ethanol, whereas
formate, i-butyrate, valerate, i-valerate, caproate, lactate, methanol, propanol and butanol were present in lesser quantities. The increase in loading rate
resulted in the increase of propionate and the decrease of acetate, but had little effect on ethanol and butyrate productions.
Only 2.5–8.8% of influent COD was converted to hydrogen and methane. The biomass yield was 0.30–0.43 mg VSS mg−1 COD.

A two-phase membrane bioreactor was developed to continuously produce enantiopure epoxides using the epoxide hydrolase activity
of Rhodotorula glutinis. An aqueous/organic cascade, hydrophilic, hollow-fiber membrane bioreactor was used: (1) to carry out large-scale resolution
of epoxides, (2) to continuously extract residual enantiopure epoxides from the aqueous phase, and (3) to separate inhibitory
formed diol from the yeast cells contained in the aqueous phase. Dodecane was employed to dissolve-feed epoxide as well as
to extract residual epoxide. 1,2-Epoxyhexane was used as a model substrate. By use of this membrane bioreactor, enantiopure
(S)-1,2-epoxyhexane (>98% enantiomeric excess) was obtained with a volumetric productivity of 3.8 g l−1 h−1. The continuous-production system was operated for 12 days and resulted in 38 g enantiopure (S)-1,2-epoxyhexane.

Cell cultures of Cayratia trifolia (Vitaceae), a tropical lianas, were maintained in Murashige and Skoog’s medium containing 0.25 mg l−1 NAA, 0.2 mg l−1 kinetin and casein hydrolysate 250 mg l−1. Cell suspension cultures of C. trifolia accumulate stilbenes (piceid, resveratrol, viniferin, ampelopsin), which on elicitation by any of 500 μM salicylic acid,
100 μM methyl jasmonate, 500 μM ethrel and 500 mg l−1 yeast extract, added on the 7th day, were enhanced by 3- to 6-fold (5–11 mg l−1) by the 15th day. 相似文献

The Root cultures of Cayratia trifolia (Vitaceae) a tropical lianas, were maintained in liquid Murashige and Skoog’s medium containing 0.5 mg l−1 NAA, 0.1 mg l−1 kinetin with 3% sucrose. These root cultures when grown with 6% sucrose accumulated stilbenes (piceid, resveratrol, viniferin,
ampelopsin) in high amounts, which on elicitation by 500 mg l−1 yeast extract, 50 μM salicylic acid (SA), 50 μM methyl jasmonate (MeJa), 500 μM ethrel added at 25th day, increased up to
ninefolds (7.1 mg l−1). Addition of alar or phenylalanine along with the elicitors further enhanced the stilbenes content. In the present study,
stilbenes accumulation up to 12 folds (9.2 mg l−1) was obtained with SA and alar. The SA was the most effective in increasing the stilbenes contents while less than control
values were recorded in the cells treated with MeJa. The roots could be grown up to 2 l flasks. The present work demonstrates
that presence of precursor and sucrose during elicitation at an appropriate time combined with growth retardation significantly
increased the production of stilbenes in C. trifolia cell cultures. 相似文献

Asparagus racemosus is an important monocot medicinal plant that is in great demand for its steroidal saponins called shatavarins. This study
was initiated to optimize the conditions for production of shatavarins in cell cultures of A. racemosus in a modified Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with six different combinations of growth regulators. Biomass
accumulation was correlated with saponin production over a 30-d culture cycle. Biomass and saponin accumulation patterns were
dependent on combinations of growth regulators and the pH of the medium. Maximum levels of saponin and biomass accumulation
were recorded on day 25 of the culture cycle within a pH range of 3.4 to 5.6. Total saponin produced by the in vitro cultures was 20-fold higher than amounts produced by cultivated plants. Saponin accumulation was not a biomass-associated
phenomenon; cultures which showed the highest biomass accumulation were not the highest saponin accumulators. Maximum biomass
(28.30 ± 0.29 g l−1) and maximum levels of shatavarin IV(11.48 ± 0.61 mg g−1) accumulation was found using a medium containing 2.0 mg l−1 2,4-D, 2 g l−1 casein hydrolysate and 0.005% pectinase. The highest levels of sarsapogenin, secreted and intracellular (4.02 ± 0.09 mg g−1), accumulated using a medium containing 1.0 mg l−1 NAA, 1.0 mg l−1 2,4-D, 0.5 mg l−1 BAP, 2 g l−1 casein hydrolysate and 0.005% pectinase, after 25 d. Shatavarins were secreted into the medium and can be isolated easily
for further purification. 相似文献

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.

Azadirachtin, a well-known biopesticide, is a secondary metabolite extracted from the seeds of Azadirachta indica. In the present study, azadirachtin was produced in hairy roots of A. indica, generated by Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation of leaf explants. Liquid cultures of A. indica hairy roots were developed with a liquid-to-flask volume ratio of 0.15. The kinetics of growth and azadirachtin production
were established in a basal plant growth medium containing MS medium major and minor salts, Gamborg’s medium vitamins, and
30 g l−1 sucrose. The highest azadirachtin accumulation in the hairy roots (up to 3.3 mg g−1) and azadirachtin production (∼44 mg l−1) was obtained on Day 25 of the growth cycle, with a biomass production of 13.3 g l−1 dry weight. To enhance the production of azadirachtin, a Plackett–Burman experimental design protocol was used to identify
key medium nutrients and concentrations to support high root biomass production and azadirachtin accumulation in hairy roots.
The optimal nutrients and concentrations were as follows: 40 g l−1 sucrose, 0.19 g l−1 potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 3.1 g l−1 potassium nitrate, and 0.41 g l−1 magnesium sulfate. Concentrations were determined by a central composite design protocol and verified in shake-flask cultivation.
The optimized medium composition yielded a root biomass production of 14.2 g l−1 and azadirachtin accumulation of 5.2 mg g−1, which was equivalent to an overall azadirachtin production of 73.84 mg l−1, 68% more than that obtained under non-optimized conditions. 相似文献

In order to provide a better understanding of the dynamics of phytoplankton in the coastal regions of high latitudes, a study
was carried out to estimate the dynamics of carbon biomass of autotrophic and heterotrophic algal groups over the austral
spring-summer 1997/1998 period. At a fixed station located in the central basin (Paso Ancho) of the Straits of Magellan (53°S),
surface water samples were collected at least once a week from September 1997 (early spring) to March 1998 (late summer).
Quantitative analysis of biomass of phytoplankton was estimated from geometric volumes, using non-linear equations, and converted
to biomass. The pattern of chlorophyll a showed a strong temporal variability, with maximum values (mean 2.8 mg m−3) at the austral spring phytoplankton increase or bloom (October/November) and minimum values during early spring (September:
<0.5 mg m−3) and summer (January/March: 0.5–1.0 mg m−3). During the spring bloom, diatoms made up to 90% of the total phytoplankton carbon (0.01–189 μg l−1), followed by a maximum of thecate dinoflagellates (0.08–34 μg l−1), and sporadic high biomass of phytoflagellates during summer. Heterotrophic algal groups such as Gymnodinium and Gyrodinium spp. dominated (70%, in the 5- to 25-μm size range) shortly before the main diatom bloom, and small peaks were observed within
spring and early summer periods (0–0.4 μg l−1). Phytoflagellates dominated earlier (spring) with higher carbon biomass (8 μg l−1) and post-bloom periods (summer) when carbon biomass ranged between 1 and 4 μg l−1.

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.

Yarrowia lipolytica converts methyl ricinoleate to γ-decalactone, a high-value fruity aroma compound. The highest amount of 3-hydroxy-γ-decalactone
produced by the yeast (263 mg l-1) occurred by increasing the kLa up to 120 h−1 at atmospheric pressure; above it, its concentration decreased, suggesting a predominance of the activity of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA
dehydrogenase. Cultures were grown under high-pressure, i.e., under increased O2 solubility, but, although growth was accelerated, γ-decalactone production decreased. However, by applying 0.5 MPa during
growth and biotransformation gave increased concentrations of dec−2-en-4-olide and dec-3-en-4-olide (70 mg l−1). 相似文献

Environmental copper contamination is a serious human health problem. Copper reductase is produced by microorganisms to facilitate
copper uptake by ATPases into the cells increasing copper biosorption. This study assessed the reduction of Cu(II) by cell-free
extracts of a highly copper-resistant bacterium, Pseudomonas sp. strain NA, isolated from vineyard soil contaminated with copper. Both intact cells and cell-free extract of Pseudomonas sp. strain NA displayed substantial reduction of Cu(II). Intact cells reduced more then 80 mg L−1 of Cu(II) from medium amended with 200 mg L−1 of copper after 24 h of incubation. Cell-free extract of the isolate reduced more than 65% of the Cu(II) at initial copper
concentration of 200 mg L−1 after 24 h. Soluble protein production was high at 72 h of incubation at 100 mg L−1 of copper, with more then 60 μg L−1 of total soluble protein in cell-free extract recorded. Cu(II) reduction by isolate NA was increased when copper concentration
increased for both intact cells and cell-free extract. Results indicate that Pseudomonas sp. strain NA produces copper reductase enzyme as the key mechanism of copper biotransformation. 相似文献

This report demonstrates the elicitation effect on growth and stilbene accumulation in cell cultures of Cayratia trifolia (Vitaceae) by an extract of the angiosperm parasite Cuscuta reflexa and salicylic acid in combination with sucrose feeding. Cell cultures of C. trifolia, a tropical liana, were maintained in liquid Murashige and Skoog's basal medium containing 0.25 mg l−1 naphthalene acetic acid, 0.2 mg l−1 kinetin with 3% sucrose and 250 mg l−1 casein hydrolysate. The cells treated with Cuscuta elicitor showed increased polyphenol oxidase activity with increasing concentration of the elicitor, while total phenol content
remained almost unchanged. Enhanced yield of stilbenes (∼8-fold) was recorded in the cells treated with 200 mg l−1
Cuscuta elicitor for 7 d. Optimum accumulation of stilbenes with a non-significant decrease in cell growth as compared with control
was recorded with the addition of 3% sucrose on the seventh day of cell culture. Addition of 3% sucrose with salicylic acid
at 500 μM and Cuscuta extract at 200 mg l−1 on the seventh day enhanced total stilbene yield up to 50.1 mg l−1, which was ∼14-fold higher than in control cultures. Piceid content increased ∼200-fold in such cultures. 相似文献

Candida bombicola produces glycolipids containing sophorose and a glycosidically/esterically bound ω- or (ω−1)-hydroxy C16(18) acid. Here we describe novel glycolipids from this source. Glucose and 2-dodecanol were used for the cultivation of the yeast,
one part of the racemic secondary alcohol being connected directly with a glucose or a sophorose unit. A relatively high content
of yeast extract, up to 4 g l−1, and subsequently higher biomass concentrations favoured the production of novel products. The provision of 150 g l−1 glucose and 15 g l−1 2-dodecanol resulted in maximum production of 22 g l−1 novel alkyl glycosides (more than 90% novel products). The molecular structures were analysed by gas chromatography, fast
atom bombardment/mass spectrometry, 1H- and 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance and optical rotation studies. Sophorose and glucose were detected as carbohydrate moieties, (S)-(+)-2-dodecanol (88%) was found to be the major lipid moiety. The new glycolipids are suitable biosurfactants, reducing
the surface tension of water from 72 mN m−1 to 32–38 mN m−1.

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.

Continuous production of l(+)-lactic acid by Lactobacillus casei in two-stage systems 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A two-stage two-stream chemostat system and a two-stage two-stream immobilized upflow packed-bed reactor system were used
for the study of lactic acid production by Lactobacillus casei subsp casei. A mixing ratio of D
12/D
2 = 0.5 (D = dilution rate) resulted in optimum production, making it possible to generate continuously a broth with high lactic acid
concentration (48 g l−1) and with a lowered overall content of initial yeast extract (5 g l−1), half the concentration supplied in the one-step process. In the two-stage chemostat system, with the first stage at pH
5.5 and 37 °C and a second stage at pH 6.0, a temperature change from 40 °C to 45 °C in the second stage resulted in a 100%
substrate consumption at an overall dilution rate of 0.05 h−1. To increase the cell mass in the system, an adhesive strain of L. casei was used to inoculate two packed-bed reactors, which operated with two mixed feedstock streams at the optimal conditions
found above. Lactic acid fermentation started after a lag period of cell growth over foam glass particles. No significant
amount of free cells, compared with those adhering to the glass foam, was observed during continuous lactic acid production.
The extreme values, 57.5 g l−1 for lactic acid concentration and 9.72 g l−1 h−1 for the volumetric productivity, in upflow packed-bed reactors were higher than those obtained for free cells (48 g l−1 and 2.42 g l−1 h−1) respectively and the highest overall l(+)-lactic acid purity (96.8%) was obtained in the two-chemostat system as compared with the immobilized-cell reactors (93%).

Inhibition of methane production from whey by heavy metals – protective effect of sulfide 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A whey solution was used as a substrate for methane production in an anaerobic fixed-bed reactor. At a hydraulic retention
time of 10 days, equivalent to a space loading of 3.3 kg (m3 day)−1, 90% of the chemical oxygen demand was converted to biogas. Only a little propionate remained in the effluent. Toxicity tests
with either copper chloride, zinc chloride or nickel chloride were performed on effluent from the reactor. Fifty per cent
inhibition of methanogenesis was observed in the presence of ≥10 mg CuCl2 l−1≥40 mg ZnCl2 l−1 and ≥60 mg NiCl2 l−1, respectively. After exposure to Cu2+, Zn2+ or Ni2+ ions for 12 days, complete recovery of methanogenesis by equimolar sulfide addition was possible upon prolonged incubation.
Recovery failed, however, for copper chloride concentrations ≥40 mg l−1. If the sulfide was added simultaneously with the three heavy metal salts, methanogenesis was only slightly retarded and
the same amount of methane as in non-inhibited controls was reached either 1 day (40 mg ZnCl2 l−1) or 2 days later (10 mg CuCl2 l−1). Up to 60 mg NiCl2 l−1 had no effect if sulfide was present. Sulfide presumably precipitated the heavy metals as metal sulfides and by this means
prevented heavy metal toxicity.
