玉米秸秆酸解副产物对重组酿酒酵母6508-127发酵的影响

将木质纤维素类生物质如玉米秸秆等用稀酸水解预处理,在半纤维素水解为单糖的同时,水解液中还会产生一些可能对后续发酵有影响的副产物。本实验分别考查了在玉米秸秆稀酸水解液中检测出的乙酸、甲酸、香草醛、糠醛和羟甲基糠醛对重组木糖发酵菌株S. cerevisiae 6508-127生长和发酵的影响。结果表明,甲酸和乙酸对菌体生长的抑制强于乙醇生成,且甲酸的抑制程度远大于乙酸;2g/L香草醛可使菌体生长延滞期明显延长,而在较低浓度（≤1.2g/L）此现象不明显。糠醛在0.5-1.5g/L范围内对菌体生长有抑制作用,但使乙醇得率提高;羟甲基糠醛在0.2g/L浓度存在就使乙醇得率有明显降低,但使生物量得率提高;研究中还发现,糠醛、羟甲基糠醛和香草醛可被S. cerevisiae 6508-127代谢。     

纤维素降解产物对Kluyveromyces marxianus 1727共发酵葡萄糖和木糖的影响

研究纤维素酸水解产生的4种副产物乙酸、甲酸、糠醛、5-羟甲基糠醛及发酵产物乙醇对Kluyveromyces marxianus 1727共发酵葡萄糖和木糖的影响。结果表明:5.0 g/L乙酸和1.0 g/L甲酸对葡萄糖和木糖共发酵具有明显的抑制作用;1.0 g/L糠醛和5-羟甲基糠醛基本不影响K.marxianus 1727发酵葡萄糖,且能够被K.marxianus1727转化为毒性相对较低的物质。由于5-羟甲基糠醛的转化速率慢,对K.marxianus 1727发酵木糖的抑制程度大于糠醛。乙醇对K.marxianus 1727发酵木糖具有抑制作用,当乙醇质量浓度大于20 g/L时,生物量及木糖利用率约是对照的44%和70%。     

紫外诱变驯化提高酿酒酵母木糖发酵的抑制物耐受性

利用驯化和紫外处理结合驯化的手段对一株木糖发酵工业菌株的抑制物耐受性进行提升。在反复批次培养过程中不断提高含9种抑制物的混合抑制物浓度,使细胞的生长和发酵逐渐适应高浓度抑制物环境,分离突变菌株并进行评价。紫外处理结合驯化比直接驯化能更有效的提升细胞对高浓度抑制物的耐受能力;通过突变菌株分离和筛选,获得3株抑制物耐受能力高于出发菌株的突变菌株,它们在抑制物浓度100%MI(甲酸1 g/L,乙酸3.5 g/L,乙酰丙酸1.5 g/L,糠醛1.5 g/L,5-羟甲基糠醛1.5g/L,丁香醛0.1 g/L,香草醛0.1 g/L,松柏醛0.025 g/L,肉桂酸0.025 g/L)条件下的木糖消耗率比出发菌株高出11.3%-23.2%。紫外诱变处理结合驯化过程可以有效提高酿酒酵母对混合抑制物的耐受性。     

木质纤维素水解液副产物对东方伊萨酵母乙醇发酵的影响

为了客观评判耐高温东方伊萨酵母HN-1利用木质纤维素水解液生产燃料乙醇的潜力,本文采用单因素试验和响应面中心组合试验研究了木质纤维素水解液有毒副产物甲酸钠(1.0-5.0 g/L)、乙酸钠(2.5-8.0 g/L)、糠醛(0.2-2.0 g/L)、5-羟甲基糠醛(0.1-1.0 g/L)和香草醛(0.5-2.0 g/L)对其乙醇发酵的影响。结果表明,木质纤维素水解液有毒副产物对东方伊萨酵母HN-1乙醇发酵的影响较小,除添加2 g/L香草醛或添加1 g/L 5-羟甲基糠醛可使乙醇产量分别降低20.38%和11.2%外,其他抑制物的添加对乙醇的生成未有显著影响。但是,当副产物浓度较高时,可以显著抑制菌体生长,添加1-5 g/L甲酸钠、2.5-8.0 g/L乙酸钠、0.4-2 g/L糠醛或0.5-2 g/L香草醛,发酵36 h时菌体细胞干重分别较对照下降了25.04%-37.02%、28.83%-43.82%、20.06%-37.60%和26.39%-52.64%。中心组合试验结果表明各抑制物交互作用对乙醇的生成影响不显著。该研究表明木质纤维素水解液副产物对东方伊萨酵母HN-1乙醇发酵的影响较小,适合用于纤维乙醇发酵。     

糠醛和5-羟甲基糠醛对大肠杆菌产丁二酸的影响

利用可再生生物质特别是木质纤维素水解液来生产平台化合物丁二酸,是目前研究的热点。虽然许多研究者相继报道了木质纤维素水解液对菌株生长和丁二酸生产存在一定抑制作用,但并没有水解液中各种抑制物对菌株影响的相关动力学研究及机理研究。我们选择了两种代表性木质纤维素水解液抑制物,即糠醛和5-羟甲基糠醛,系统研究了它们对大肠杆菌的生长和丁二酸生产的影响。结果表明：糠醛和5-羟甲基糠醛的初始抑制浓度均为0.8 g/L。当糠醛浓度大于6.4 g/L,5-羟甲基糠醛浓度大于12.8 g/L时,菌株生长完全受到抑制。在最高耐受浓度下,糠醛的存在使菌株生物量比对照菌株下降77.8%,丁二酸产量下降36.1%。5-羟甲基糠醛的存在使菌株生物量比对照菌株降低13.6%,丁二酸产量降低18.3%。糠醛和5-羟甲基糠醛具有明显的协同作用。体外酶活测定表明丁二酸生产途径中关键酶磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧化酶、苹果酸脱氢酶、富马酸还原酶均受糠醛和5-羟甲基糠醛抑制。研究结果对丁二酸生产用纤维素水解液的预处理和脱毒工艺开发具有指导作用,有利于实现丁二酸发酵生产的工业化。     

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。

大肠杆菌琥珀酸和乙酸合成途径的删除及其重组菌株的D-乳酸发酵

菌株CICIM B0013-030 (B0013,ack-pta,pps,pflB) 可积累D-乳酸作为主要发酵产物,然而副产物琥珀酸和乙酸的含量分别高达乳酸的11.9％和7.1％。为构建副产物含量低的产D-乳酸重组大肠杆菌菌株,本研究删除了菌株B0013-030的琥珀酸 (frdA) 和乙酸 (tdcDE) 合成途径,并考察了重组菌株在摇瓶和发酵罐中经两阶段发酵 (好氧生长菌体和厌氧发酵产酸) 利用葡萄糖发酵D-乳酸的性能。结果表明,分别构建含有frdA::difGm和tdcDE::difGm突变盒的重组质粒,并利用Red重组系统将突变盒整合于染色体上的目的基因,再利用Xer重组系统去除抗生素抗性基因,依次获得了重组菌株B0013-040B (B0013-030,frdA) 和B0013-050B (B0013-040B,tdcDE)。摇瓶发酵结果表明,frdA基因的删除使得菌株B0013-040B副产物琥珀酸的含量降低了80.8％;在7 L发酵罐中进行乳酸发酵,菌株B0013-040B的D-乳酸产量达114.5 g/L,光学纯度大于99.9％,但仍积累1.0 g/L琥珀酸和5.4 g/L乙酸。进一步删除了tdcD和tdcE基因的菌株B0013-050B,在7 L发酵罐中生产111.9 g/L D-乳酸,乙酸和琥珀酸的合成量分别降低为0.4 g/L,其他副产物含量也维持较低水平,表明该菌株具有较优良的D-乳酸发酵性能。     

发酵抑制物对絮凝酵母戊糖发酵的影响

将絮凝剂加入酵母溶液中,使酵母絮凝成颗粒以此作为固定化酵母进行戊糖发酵。研究了常见发酵抑制物(甲酸、乙酸、糠醛和乳酸等)对絮凝酵母发酵木糖的影响。结果表明:在60.0g/L木糖发酵液中,经过24h发酵,木糖利用率达94.6%,当分别添加抑制物甲酸、乙酸、糠醛、乙醇和乳酸时,聚氧乙烯絮凝酵母分别对其的耐受浓度为0.5、0.5、1.0、30.0和8.0g/L。当抑制物添加量超过各自的耐受浓度后,对絮凝酵母发酵会产生明显的抑制作用。     

Potential inhibitors from wet oxidation of wheat straw and their effect on ethanol production of Saccharomyces cerevisiae: wet oxidation and fermentation by yeast

Alkaline wet oxidation (WO) (using water, 6.5 g/L sodium carbonate and 12 bar oxygen at 195 degrees C) was used as pretreatment method for wheat straw (60 g/L), resulting in a hydrolysate and a cellulosic solid fraction. The hydrolysate consisted of soluble hemicellulose (8 g/L), low-molecular-weight carboxylic acids (3.9 g/L), phenols (0.27 g/L = 1.7 mM) and 2-furoic acid (0.007 g/L). The wet oxidized wheat straw hydrolysate caused no inhibition of ethanol production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 96581. Nine phenols and 2-furoic acid, identified to be present in the hydrolysate, were each tested in concentrations of 50-100 times the concentration found in the hydrolysate for their effect on fermentation by yeast. At these high concentrations (10 mM), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, vanillin, 4-hydroxyacetophenone and acetovanillone caused a 53-67% decrease in the volumetric ethanol productivity in S. cerevisiae compared to controls with an ethanol productivity of 3.8 g/L. The phenol acids (4-hydroxy, vanillic and syringic acid), 2-furoic acid, syringaldehyde and acetosyringone were less inhibitory, causing a 5-16% decrease in ethanol productivity. By adding the same aromatic compounds to hydrolysate (10 mM), it was shown that syringaldehyde and acetovanillone interacted negatively with hydrolysate components on the ethanol productivity. Fermentation in WO hydrolysate, that had been concentrated 6 times by freeze-drying, lasted 4 hours longer than in regular hydrolysate; however, the ethanol yield was the same. The longer fermentation time could not be explained by an inhibitory action of phenols alone, but was more likely caused by inhibitory interactions of phenols with carboxylic acids, such as acetic and formic acid.     

Effect of inhibitors released during steam-explosion treatment of poplar wood on subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis and SSF

Steam-exploded (SE) poplar wood biomass was hydrolyzed by means of a blend of Celluclast and Novozym cellulase complexes in the presence of the inhibiting compounds produced during the preceding steam-explosion pretreatment process. The SE temperature and time conditions were 214 degrees C and 6 min, resulting in a log R(0) of 4.13. In enzymatic hydrolysis tests at 45 degrees C, the biomass loading in the bioreactor was 100 g(DW)/L (dry weight) and the enzyme-to-biomass ratio 0.06 g/g(DW). The enzyme activities for endo-glucanase, exo-glucanase, and beta-glucosidase were 5.76, 0.55, and 5.98 U/mg, respectively. The inhibiting effects of components released during SE (formic, acetic, and levulinic acids, furfural, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF), syringaldehyde, 4-hydroxy benzaldehyde, and vanillin) were studied at different concentrations in hydrolysis runs performed with rinsed SE biomass as model substrate. Acetic acid (2 g/L), furfural, 5-HMF, syringaldehyde, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and vanillin (0.5 g/L) did not significantly effect the enzyme activity, whereas formic acid (11.5 g/L) inactivated the enzymes and levulinic acid (29.0 g/L) partially affected the cellulase. Synergism and cumulative concentration effects of these compounds were not detected. SSF experiments show that untreated SE biomass during the enzymatic attack gives rise to a nonfermentable hydrolysate, which becomes fermentable when rinsed SE biomass is used. The presence of acetic acid, vanillin, and 5-HMF (0.5 g/L) in SSF of 100 g(DW) /L biomass gave rise to ethanol yields of 84.0%, 73.5%, and 91.0% respectively, with respective lag phases of 42, 39, and 58 h.     

Liquid–liquid extraction of fermentation inhibiting compounds in lignocellulose hydrolysate

Several compounds that are formed or released during hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass inhibit the fermentation of the hydrolysate. The use of a liquid extractive agent is suggested as a method for removal of these fermentation inhibitors. The method can be applied before or during the fermentation. For a series of alkanes and alcohols, partition coefficients were measured at low concentrations of the inhibiting compounds furfural, hydroxymethyl furfural, vanillin, syringaldehyde, coniferyl aldehyde, acetic acid, as well as for ethanol as the fermentation product. Carbon dioxide production was measured during fermentation in the presence of each organic solvent to indicate its biocompatibility. The feasibility of extractive fermentation of hydrolysate was investigated by ethanolic glucose fermentation in synthetic medium containing several concentrations of furfural and vanillin and in the presence of decanol, oleyl alcohol and oleic acid. Volumetric ethanol productivity with 6 g/L vanillin in the medium increased twofold with 30% volume oleyl alcohol. Decanol showed interesting extractive properties for most fermentation inhibiting compounds, but it is not suitable for in situ application due to its poor biocompatibility. Biotechnol.

微生物转化方法生产香草酸与香草醛的初步研究

从实验室保藏的菌种中筛选到一株黑曲霉（Aspergillus niger）SW-33,能够将1g/L的阿魏酸底物转化为0.23g/L的香草酸,相应的摩尔转化率为29.35％;流加四次底物阿魏酸后,产物浓度达到1.11g/L,相应的摩尔转化率为44.9％。为了提高产物浓度,对培养基和发酵条件进行优化,使得该菌株能够将1g/l的阿魏酸底物转化为0.46g/L的香草酸,相应的摩尔转化率为57.81％。提取得到的香草酸,经HPLC测定,纯度为85.9％;提取收率为75.2％。用含香草酸的转化液,或者用提取的结晶香草酸,加入朱红密孔菌（Prcnporus cinnabarnus）SW-0203发酵培养液,可得到转化产物香草醛。     

过表达长链鞘氨醇激酶基因LCB4提高酿酒酵母抑制物耐受性

木质纤维素预处理过程中产生的有毒副产物严重影响了纤维素乙醇发酵,提高酿酒酵母抑制物耐受性是提高纤维素乙醇发酵效率的有效方法。文中通过过表达LCB4基因,研究了重组菌株S288C-LCB4在乙酸、糠醛和香草醛胁迫下的细胞生长和乙醇发酵性能。结果表明,LCB4过表达菌株在分别含有10 g/L乙酸、1.5 g/L糠醛和1 g/L香草醛的平板中生长均优于对照菌株;在分别含有10 g/L乙酸、3 g/L糠醛和2 g/L香草醛的液体乙醇发酵过程中,重组菌株S288C-LCB4乙醇发酵产率分别为0.85 g/(L·h)、0.76 g/(L·h)和1.12 g/(L·h),比对照菌株提高了34.9%、85.4%和330.8%;且糠醛和香草醛胁迫下发酵时间分别缩短了30 h和44 h。根据发酵终点发酵液代谢物分析发现重组菌株比对照菌株产生了更多甘油、海藻糖和琥珀酸,这些物质有利于增强菌株的抑制物耐受性。综上所述,LCB4基因过表达可显著提高酿酒酵母S288C在乙酸、糠醛和香草醛胁迫下的乙醇发酵性能。     

Effects of some inhibitors on the growth and lipid accumulation of oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides and preparation of biodiesel by enzymatic transesterification of the lipid

Microbial lipid produced using yeast fermentation with inexpensive carbon sources such as lignocellulosic hydrolyzate can be an alternative feedstock for biodiesel production. Several inhibitors that can be generated during acid hydrolysis of lignocellulose were added solely or together into the culture medium to study their individual inhibitory actions and their synergistic effects on the growth and lipid accumulation of oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides. When the inhibitors were present in isolation in the medium, to obtain a high cell biomass accumulation, the concentrations of formic acid, acetic acid, furfural and vanillin should be lower than 2, 5, 0.5 and 1.5 g/L, respectively. However, the synergistic effects of these compounds could dramatically decrease the minimum critical inhibitory concentrations leading to significant growth and lipid production inhibitions. Unlike the above-cited inhibitors, sodium lignosulphonate had no negative influence on biomass accumulation when its concentration was in the range of 0.5-2.0 g/L; in effect, it was found to facilitate cell growth and sugar-to-lipid conversion. The fatty acid compositional profile of the yeast lipid was in the compositional range of various plant oils and animal tallow. Finally, the crude yeast lipid from bagasse hydrolyzate could be well converted into fatty acid methyl ester (FAME, biodiesel) by enzymatic transesterification in a tert-butanol system with biodiesel yield of 67.2% and lipid-to-biodiesel conversion of 88.4%.
