代谢改造热带假丝酵母发酵木糖母液生产木糖醇

木糖醇是一种在食品、医药、轻工等领域具有广泛用途的多元醇,目前主要通过酸水解木聚糖获得木糖并进一步化学催化加氢方法制备。提取木糖过程中会产生大量的木糖母液副产物,其中含有一定浓度的葡萄糖、木糖、阿拉伯糖等碳源,以及少量的糠醛、四氢呋喃等物质。研究微生物转化木糖母液生产高附加值化学品不仅能够提高木糖母液的利用价值,而且能够减少环境污染。热带假丝酵母不仅能够利用葡萄糖,也具有高效的木糖代谢途径。首先利用代谢工程技术删除了热带假丝酵母菌株的木糖醇脱氢酶基因,获得能够转化木糖积累木糖醇的突变株。在此基础上,评价了突变株在木糖母液培养基中的发酵性能。通过单因素优化实验确定了突变株发酵生产木糖醇较优的发酵工艺:培养基组成为木糖母液300g/L,玉米浆5g/L;最佳发酵条件为:发酵温度35℃,初始p H为5.0,接种量15%,200r/min摇床培养140h。利用优化后的发酵工艺,木糖醇产量达到83.01g/L。初步建立了转化木糖母液生产木糖醇的工艺,为进一步利用木糖母液奠定了基础。

木糖醇在食品、医药及化工行业中有着广泛的用途而深受关注。但是,传统的化学法生产木糖醇需要一系列复杂的分离纯化步骤,过高的生产成本限制了木糖醇的使用范围。发酵工艺生产木糖醇无需木糖的纯化步骤,是取代化学合成法的一条可行工艺路线。本文着重介绍产木糖醇的微生物,酵母对木糖的同化途径,半纤维素水解物的脱毒方法,影响木糖醇发酵的工艺条件等。     

活性炭对玉米芯半纤维素稀硫酸水解液的脱毒效果

用稀硫酸对玉米芯半纤维素进行水解是一种常用的方法,但是玉米芯半纤维素在水解成木糖等还原糖的同时还产生了糠醛、乙酸和酚类等抑制水解液发酵的毒物。以混合脱毒法为基础,研究活性炭在脱毒过程中的作用。结果表明,有脱毒效果的活性炭种类是GH-13和GH-15,随着活性炭添加量的增大,脱毒效果增强,但木糖损失也随之增多。其中采用5%GH-15时的脱毒效果最佳,该条件下乙酸去除率为24.60%,糠醛去除率达100%,酚类化合物去除效率R280值0.009,而木糖的损失率为23.70%。

玉米芯半纤维素水解液中抑制物对丁醇发酵的影响北大核心CSCD

半纤维素水解液抑制物对微生物细胞的毒性限制了其在丁醇发酵中的应用,旨在探讨其对产丁醇共生体系TSH06的抑制作用并为其应用于丁醇发酵奠定基础。通过稀酸水解半纤维素制得水解液,采用P2培养基稀释的半纤维素水解液为底物,分别利用NaOH和氨水调节培养基pH值,结合实时荧光定量PCR方法来研究水解液对产丁醇共生体系TSH06的抑制作用。以NaOH调节pH抑制菌体的生长,氨水调节pH菌体可生长发酵。产丁醇菌株TSH06可以在50%稀释度以下的水解液中发酵生长,并且能够耐受并降解抑制物糠醛与5-羟甲基糠醛,最终丁醇产量达到4.16-5.16 g/L,低于P2培养基中的丁醇产量(8.83 g/L)。稀释水解液中,48 h之后乙酸浓度在3.18-4.16 g/L,远大于P2培养基中的乙酸浓度(低于2 g/L)。相对于P2培养基,在50%水解液中培养的TSH06有机酸生成途径关键基因的基因转录水平明显提高,而有机酸返耗途径以及丁醇生成途径的关键基因的基因转录水平则明显下降。水解液中过多的乙酸抑制了产酸期到产溶剂期的转化,而酸的累积使得菌体在底物被完全消耗之前就趋于衰退死亡,从而造成丁醇产量的降低与底物的不完全利用。     

Evaluation of xylitol production from corn cob hemicellulose hydrolysate by Candida parapsilosis

Candida parapsilosis was grown for 59 h in a medium containing corn cob hydrolysate consisting of 50 g xylose l^–1, 3.0 g glucose l^–1, 2.0 g arabinose l^–1, and 0.9 g acetic acid l^–1. A biomass of 9.1 g l^–1 was produced with 36 g xylitol l^–1 and 2.5 g ethanol l^–1. In a medium containing 50 g xylose l^–1 instead of corn cob hydrolysate, the concentrations of cells, xylitol, and ethanol were 8.6 g l^–1, 33 g l^–1, and 0.2 g l^–1, respectively. The differences between two cultures were due to the glucose and arabinose in the corn cob hydrolysate stimulating growth and the low concentration of acetic acid stimulating xylitol production.     

Optimization of fed-batch fermentation for xylitol production by Candida tropicalis

Xylitol, a functional sweetener, was produced from xylose by biological conversion using Candida tropicalis ATCC 13803. Based on a two-substrate fermentation using glucose for cell growth and xylose for xylitol production, fed-batch fermentations were undertaken to increase the final xylitol concentration. The effects of xylose and xylitol on xylitol production rate were studied to determine the optimum concentrations for fed-batch fermentation. Xylose concentration in the medium (100 g l⁻¹) and less than 200 g l⁻¹ total xylose plus xylitol concentration were determined as optimum for maximum xylitol production rate and xylitol yield. Increasing the concentrations of xylose and xylitol decreased the rate and yield of xylitol production and the specific cell growth rate, probably because of an increase in osmotic stress that would interfere with xylose transport, xylitol flux to secretion to cell metabolism. The feeding rate of xylose solution during the fed-batch mode of operation was determined by using the mass balance equations and kinetic parameters involved in the equations in order to increase final xylitol concentration without affecting xylitol and productivity. The optimized fed-batch fermentation resulted in 187 g l⁻¹ xylitol concentration, 0.75 g xylitol g xylose⁻¹ xylitol yield and 3.9 g xylitol l⁻¹ h⁻¹ volumetric productivity.

Effect of phosphate buffer concentration on the batch xylitol production by Candida guilliermondii

AIMS: To evaluate the effect of phosphate buffer concentration on growth and xylitol production by Candida guilliermondii FTI 20037. METHODS AND RESULTS: Fermentations runs were carried out in batch mode employing semisynthetic medium supplemented with phosphate buffer at different concentrations (from 200 to 600 mmol l(-1)). The xylitol yield (Y(P/S)) and volumetric productivity (Q(P)) were improved when the fermentation medium was supplemented with phosphate buffer at concentration of 600 mmol l(-1). Under this condition (Y(P/S)) and (Q(P)) values were 0.75 g g(-1) and 0.66 g l(-1) h(-1), respectively, whereas in the absence of the phosphate buffer these values decreased to 0.52 g g(-1) and 0.44 g l(-1)h(-1) respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The use of phosphate buffer at 600 mmol l(-1) promoted an easier pH control during shake flasks fermentation of C. guilliermondii. In addition the xylitol yield and productivity were significantly improved in response to the supplementation of potassium phosphate in the medium. The increase in these parameters could be related to both osmotic effect and pH control. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This approach provided a method for improving the xylitol production from semisynthetic medium by C. guilliermondii, being possible their use as a simple strategy to achieve efficient fermentation processes employing complex medium such as lignocellulosic hydrolysates.     

Evaluation of cotton stalk hydrolysate for xylitol production

Cotton stalk is a widely distributed and abundant lignocellulosic waste found in Turkey. Because of its rich xylose content, it can be a promising source for the production of xylitol. Xylitol can be produced by chemical or biotechnological methods. Because the biotechnological method is a simple process with great substrate specificity and low energy requirements, it is more of an economic alternative for the xylitol production. This study aimed to use cotton stalk for the production of xylitol with Candida tropicalis Kuen 1022. For this purpose, the combined effects of different oxygen concentration, inoculum level and substrate concentration were investigated to obtain high xylitol yield and volumetric xylitol production rate. Candida tropicalis Kuen 1022 afforded different concentrations of xylitol depending on xylose concentration, inoculum level, and oxygen concentration. The optimum xylose, yeast concentration, and airflow rate for cotton stalk hydrolysate were found as 10.41 g L^?1, 0.99 g L^?1, and 1.02 vvm, respectively, and under these conditions, xylitol yield and volumetric xylitol production rate were obtained as 36% and 0.06 g L^?1 hr^?1, respectively. The results of this study show that cotton stalk can serve as a potential renewable source for the production of xylitol.
