The impact of encapsulation on the anaerobic growth pattern of S. cerevisiae CBS 8066 in a defined synthetic medium over 20 consecutive batch cultivations was investigated. In this period, the ethanol yield increased from 0.43 to 0.46 g/g, while the biomass and glycerol yields decreased by 58 and 23%, respectively. The growth rate of the encapsulated cells in the first batch was 0.13 h −1, but decreased gradually to 0.01 h −1 within the 20 sequential batch cultivations. Total RNA content of these yeast cells decreased by 39% from 90.3 to 55 mg/g, while the total protein content decreased by 24% from 460 to 350 mg/g. On the other hand, the stored carbohydrates, that is, glycogen and trehalose content, increased by factors of 4.5 and 4 within 20 batch cultivations, respectively. Higher biomass concentrations inside capsules led to a lower glucose diffusion rate through the membrane, and volumetric mass transfer coefficient for glucose was drastically decreased from 6.28 to 1.24 (cm 3/min) by continuing the experiments. Most of the encapsulated yeast existed in the form of single and non-budding cells after long-term application. 相似文献

The effect of changing dilution rate ( D) on Bacillus sp. CCMI 1051 at dilution rates between 0.1 and 0.55 h −1 in a glucose-limited medium was studied. Biomass values varied between 0.88 and 1.1 g L −1 at D values of 0.15–0.35 h −1. Maximal biomass productivity was found to be 0.39 g L −1 h −1, obtained at D = 0.35 h −1 and corresponding to a 54.4% conversion of the carbon into cell mass. The highest rate of glucose consumption was 4.45 mmol g −1 h −1 occurring at D = 0.4 h −1. The glucose concentration inside the chemostat was below the detection level starting to accumulate around 0.4 h −1. Growth inhibition of fifteen strains of fungi by the broth of the steady-state cell-free supernatants was assessed. Results showed that the relative inhibition differ among the target species but was not influenced by the dilution rate changing. 相似文献

The growth of the Spodoptera frugiperda cell line Sf9 was studied in batch and continuous culture. The results of batch cultivations showed that glucose was the preferred energy and carbon source limiting the cell density in both TNM-FH and IPL-41 media. Continuous culture using IPL-41-based feeding medium with different glucose (2.5, 5 and 10 g l −1) and yeast extract concentrations (4, 8 and 16 g l −1) showed that in serum-supplemented medium the maximum cell density was limited by glucose and yeast extract concentration. The transition to glucose limitation caused a decrease in growth rate and viability. A high cell density culture (18 × 10 6 ml−1) was obtained using a glucose concentration of 10 g l −1 and a yeast extract concentration of 8 g l −1 in the feeding medium. A yeast extract concentration of 16 g l −1 inhibited growth. Unlike mammalian cell cultures, lactate, alanine and ammonia were not involved in growth inhibition. Lactate did not accumulate under aerobic conditions. Ammonia accumulation, if observed, was insignificant. The level of alanine synthesized and excreted into the culture medium never reached an inhibitory level. During glucose limitation alanine did not accumulate and ammonia was released. However, even in the presence of glucose significant amounts of Asp, Glu, Gln, Asn, Ser, Arg and Met were utilized for energy production. The amino groups of these amino acids were transferred to pyruvate or used for nucleic acid synthesis and excreted in the form of alanine into the culture medium. The consumption of His, Lys, Thr, Gly, Val, Leu, Phe, Tyr, Trp and Ile by growing Sf-9 cells was almost equal to their concentration in the biomass. 相似文献

The fungus Mortierella alpina LPM 301, a producer of arachidonic acid (ARA), was found to possess a unique property of a growth-coupled lipid synthesis. An increase in specific growth rate ( μ) from 0.03 to 0.05 h −1 resulted in a two-fold increase in the specific rate of lipid synthesis (milligram lipid (gram per lipid-free biomass) per hour). Under batch cultivation in glucose-containing media with urea or potassium nitrate as nitrogen sources, the ARA content was 46.0 and 60.4% of lipid; 16.4 and 18.8% of dry biomass; and 4.2 and 4.5 g l −1, respectively. Under continuous cultivation of the strain, the productivity of ARA synthesis was 16.2 and 19.2 mg l −1 h −1 at μ=0.05 and 0.03 h −1, respectively. 相似文献

Continuous fermentations were performed in order to correlate the production of retamycin, an anthracycline antibiotic produced by Streptomyces olindensis in submerged cultures, with the dilution rate. Maximum retamycin production was achieved at a dilution rate of 0.05 h −1 ( D=μ x=0.05 h −1), while higher dilution rates caused a decrease in antibiotic production, which ceased completely at a dilution rate of 0.30 h −1. Otherwise, biomass productivity was favoured by high dilution rates, achieving a maximum at D=0.25 h −1, whereas retamycin productivity reached a maximum at D=0.05 h −1. Dilution rate influenced morphology, which was assessed by image analysis. The percentage of clumps decreased with an increase in dilution rate, with a correspondent increase in pellet percentage. 相似文献

Cheese whey powder (CWP) solution with different CWP or sugar concentrations was fermented to ethanol in a continuous fermenter using pure culture of Kluyveromyces marxianus (DSMZ 7239). Sugar concentration of the feed CWP solution varied between 55 and 200 g l −1 while the hydraulic residence time (HRT) was kept constant at 54 h. Ethanol formation, sugar utilization and biomass formation were investigated as functions of the feed sugar concentration. Percent sugar utilization and biomass concentrations decreased and the effluent sugar concentration increased with increasing feed sugar concentrations especially for the feed sugar contents above 100 g l −1. Ethanol concentration and productivity (DP) increased with increasing feed sugar up to 100 g l −1 and then decreased with further increases in the feed sugar content. The highest ethanol concentration (3.7%, v v −1) and productivity (0.54 gE l −1 h −1) were obtained with the feed sugar content of 100 g l −1 or 125 g l −1. The ethanol yield coefficient ( YP/S) was also maximum (0.49 gE gS −1) when the feed sugar was between 100 and 125 g l −1. The growth yield coefficient ( YX/S) decreased steadily from 0.123 to 0.063 gX gS −1 when the feed sugar increased from 55 to 200 g l −1 due to adverse effects of high sugar contents on yeast growth. The optimal feed sugar concentration maximizing the ethanol productivity and sugar utilization was between 100 and 125 g l −1 under the specified experimental conditions. 相似文献

The effects of nitrogen and phosphate in batch and continuous AEB fermentations were tested. Both nitrogen- and phosphate-limited fermentations favored acid formation but not solvent production. A coupled two-stage continuous fermentation was performed for 30 days with a nitrogen-limited first stage fermentation for enhanced acid production. The bacteria from the acidogenic phase (first stage) fermentation were continuously pumped into a 14-l second stage fermentor with supplemental glucose and nitrogen for solvent production. The second stage fermentor had a maximum butanol productivity of 0.4 g l −1 h −1 (total solvent production was 0.6 g l −1 h −1) at a dilution rate of 0.06 h −1. 相似文献

A combined bioreactor system, composed of a stirred tank and a three-stage tubular bioreactor in series and with a total working volume of 3260 ml, was established. Continuous ethanol production was carried out using Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a very high gravity (VHG) medium containing 280 g l −1 glucose. An average ethanol concentration of 124.6 g l −1 or 15.8% (v) was produced when the bioreactor system was operated at a dilution rate of 0.012 h −1. The yield of ethanol to glucose consumed was calculated to be 0.484 or 94.7% of its theoretical value of 0.511 when ethanol entrapped in the exhaust gas was incorporated. Meanwhile, quasi-steady states and non-steady oscillations were observed for residual glucose, ethanol and biomass concentrations for all of these bioreactors during their operations. Models that can be used to predict yeast cell lysis and viability loss were developed. 相似文献

The effects of medium glucose concentration and pH on growth and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6 ω-3) content of Crypthecodinium cohnii were investigated. Over a range of glucose concentrations (5–40 g l −1) investigated, the highest specific growth rate (0.12 h −1), highest cell dry weight concentration (3.13 g l −1) and highest growth yield on glucose (0.6 g g −1) were obtained at 20 g l −1 glucose. However, the highest degree of fatty acid unsaturation (3.2) and highest DHA proportion (53.4% of total fatty acids) were achieved at 5 g l −1 glucose. Low glucose concentrations enhanced the degree of fatty acid unsaturation and DHA formation. Medium pH also affected cell growth, fatty acid unsaturation and DHA proportion. When medium pH was 7.2, the highest specific growth rate (0.089 h −1), highest cell dry weight concentration (2.73 g l −1), highest growth yield on glucose (0.564 g g −1), highest degree of fatty acid unsaturation (3.4) and highest DHA proportion (56.8% of total fatty acids) were obtained. Results suggest that glucose concentration and pH value could be effectively manipulated to achieve maximum DHA production by C. cohnii. 相似文献

Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans was immobilized in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) by a PVA–boric acid method, and spherical beads of uniform size were produced. Biooxidation of ferrous iron by immobilized cells was investigated in repeated batch culture and continuous operation in a laboratory scale packed-bed bioreactor. During repeated batch culture, the cell-immobilized gels were stable and showed high constant iron-oxidizing activity. In continuous operation in a packed-bed bioreactor, biooxidation of ferrous iron fits a plug-flow reaction model well. A maximum Fe 2+ oxidation rate of 1.89 g l −1 h −1 was achieved at the dilution rate of 0.38 h −1 or higher, while no obvious precipitate was detected in the bioreactor. 相似文献

In previous papers, it was shown that eukaryotic microbial systems can be encapsulated in polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) prepared from sodium cellulose sulfate and poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) with maintainance of vitality. In the present study, prokaryotic cells were successfully encapsulated in these PEC. Serratia marcescens B345 (IMET 11312) was chosen as a model organism. This strain converts gluconic acid to 2-ketogluconic acid. Since the 2-ketogluconic acid produced has very strong complexing properties, the number of applicable immobilization methods is restricted. Due to the high stability of PEC towards complexing agents, these problems can be overcome by the described method. As already described in previous papers, a preimmobilization of cells in a PEC coprecipitate prior to capsule formation proved to be advantageous also for encapsulation of bacilli. The mean productivity of the encapsulated S. marcescens cells was 1–4.4 g l−1 h−1 in comparison to 5 g l−1 h−1 for free cells. The productivity was highly dependent on the flow rate of the reactor. The encapsulated cells were used for 1,200 h in a continuous biotransformation process for the production of 2-ketogluconic acid. 相似文献

Batch and continuous cultures of Mannheimia succiniciproducens MBEL55E were carried out in a complex medium containing a NaOH-treated wood hydrolysate for the production of succinic acid. The wood hydrolysate based medium was treated with NaOH before sterilization to reduce the formation of inhibitory compounds. M. succiniciproducens MBEL55E utilized xylose as well as glucose in the wood hydrolysate based medium as a carbon source for the succinic acid production. In batch cultures, the final succinic acid concentration of 11.73 g l −1 was obtained from the pre-treated wood hydrolysate based medium, resulting in a succinic acid yield of 56% and a succinic acid productivity of 1.17 g l −1 h −1, while the corresponding continuous cultures gave the succinic acid yield and productivity of 55% and 3.19 g l −1 h −1, respectively. These results suggest that succinic acid can be produced economically and efficiently by the fermentation of M. succiniciproducens MBEL55E from an inexpensive biomass-based wood hydrolysate. 相似文献

The effect of dilution rate on the production of lactic acid from whey permeate by Lactobacillus helveticus has been investigated. In the first chemostat of a two-stage system, total conversion (98.1%) and maximum lactic acid concentration (43.7 g l −1) were obtained at a dilution rate ( DItot) of 0.06 h −1. Maximum volumetric productivities of lactic acid (8.27 g l −1 h −1) and biomass (1.90 g l −1 h −1) occurred at DItot of 0.40 h −1. The fraction of
-lactate in the product was found to increase with dilution rate and reached a maximum of 66% at the same dilution rate. The maximum specific growth rate (μ max) on this medium was 0.7 h −1. A Y ATP (max) value of 22.4 g dry weight (mol ATP) −1 and a maintenance coefficient of 8.0 mmol ATP (g dry weight h) −1 were determined. The second stage, in series with the first, confirmed these results and further showed that the total residence time could be reduced by 50%, compared with a single chemostat for the same nearly complete level of substrate conversion. 相似文献

The present work is a study of oxidative degradation of the organic matter present in the washing waters from the black table olive industry. Pollutant organic matter reduction was studied by an aerobic biological process and by the combination of two successive steps: ozonation pretreatment followed by aerobic biological degradation. In the single aerobic biological process, the evolution of biomass and organic matter contents was followed during each experiment. Contaminant removal was followed by means of global parameters directly related to the concentration of organic compounds in those effluents: chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total phenolic content (TP). A kinetic study was performed using the Contois model, which applied to the experimental data, provides the specific kinetic parameters of this model: 4.81×10 −2 h −1 for the kinetic substrate removal rate constant, 0.279 g VSS g COD −1 for the cellular yield coefficient and 1.92×10 −2 h −1 for the kinetic constant for endogenous metabolism. In the combined process, an ozonation pretreatment is conducted with experiments where an important reduction in the phenolic compounds is achieved. The kinetic parameters of the following aerobic degradation stage are also evaluated, being 5.42×10 −2 h −1 for the kinetic substrate removal rate constant, 0.280 g VSS g COD −1 for the cellular yield coefficient and 9.1×10 −3 h −1 for the kinetic constant for the endogenous metabolism. 相似文献

Media optimisation was attempted for β-glucuronidase production from a newly and locally isolated (Oxfordshire, UK) fungal strain of Ganoderma applanatum. Both fungal growth and β-glucuronidase activity were found to be greatly affected by varying the carbon or the nitrogen source with gum arabic and yeast extracts being the best carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. Their concentrations were optimised at 8 g L −1 for the former and 2 g L −1 for the latter. Work then proceeded to enhance the yield of β-glucuronidase in a controlled environment. Control, batch and fed-batch cultivations were performed in 2-L bioreactors using the optimised medium supplemented with cellobiuronic acid as inducer. Time profiles of biomass dry weight, carbohydrate consumption and β-glucuronidase production were obtained and the results showed that production of β-glucuronidase was noticeably increased by the addition of cellobiuronic acid in both batch and fed-batch fermentations. Although the addition did not produce a variation in the pattern of growth seen between control, and induced fermenters, higher levels of the enzyme were attained when adopting a fed-batch process with 1.09 U mL−1 of culture, corresponding to a 5-fold enhancement in β-glucuronidase production rate compared with batch fermentation. 相似文献

Relatively large (0.19 m column diameter, 2 m tall, 0.06 m 3 working volume) outdoor bubble column and airlift bioreactors (a split-cylinder and a draft-tube airlift device) were compared for monoseptic fed-batch culture of the microalga Phaeodactylum tricornutum. The three photobioreactors produced similar biomass versus time profiles and final biomass concentration (4 kg m −3). The maximum specific growth rate observed within a daily illuminated period in the exponential growth phase, had a value of 0.08 h −1 on the third day of culture. Because of night-time losses of biomass, the specific growth rate averaged over the 4-days of exponential phase was 0.021 h −1 for the three reactors. The biomass in the vertical column reactors did not experience photoinhibition under conditions (photosynthetically active daily averaged irradiance value of 1150±52 μE m−2 s−1) that are known to cause photoinhibition in conventional thin-tube horizontal loop reactors. Because of good gas-liquid mass transfer, the dissolved oxygen concentration in the reactors at peak photosynthesis remained <120% of air saturation; thus, oxygen inhibition of photosynthesis and photo-oxidation of the biomass did not occur. Carbohydrate accumulation (up to 13% w/w) by the biomass was favored during light-limited linear growth. A declining light intensity caused a more than five-fold increase in cellular carotenoids but the chlorophylls increased only by about 2.5-fold during the course of the culture. In the stationary phase, up to 2% of the biomass was chlorophylls and carotenoids constituted up to 0.5% of the biomass dry weight. 相似文献

Repeated-batch cultures of Ca-alginate immobilized cells of Streptomyces olindensis ICB20 for retamycin production were carried out in two different bioreactors: a basket-type stirred tank reactor (BSTR) and a bubble column reactor (BCR). Higher average values of retamycin content ( R) and productivity ( PR) were achieved in the BSTR cultures (about 1.7 AU and 0.031 AU h −1, respectively) compared to those obtained in the BCR cultures (about 0.6 AU and 0.012 AU h −1, respectively). The BCR, on the other hand, presented significantly better operation stability than the BSTR, which makes the former much more promising regarding future industrial applications. 相似文献

The heterotrophic micro alga Crypthecodinium cohnii was cultivated in media containing glucose, yeast extract and sea salt. Increasing amounts of yeast extract stimulated growth but influenced lipid accumulation negatively. Sea salt concentrations above half the average seawater salinity were required for good growth and lipid accumulation. C. cohnii was able to grow on a glucose concentration as high as 84.3 g l −1, although concentrations above 25 g l −1 decreased the growth rate. Comparison of growth at 27 and 30°C showed that the higher incubation temperature was more favourable for growth. However, lipid accumulation was higher at the lower incubation temperature. In a bioreactor the biomass concentration increased from 1.5 to 27.7 g l −1 in 74 h. In the final 41 h of the process the lipid content of the biomass increased from 7.5 to 13.5%. In this period the percentage of docosahexaenoic acid of the lipid increased from 36.5 to 43.6%. The total amounts of lipid and docosahexaenoic acid after 91 h were 3.7 and 1.6 g l −1, respectively. 相似文献

A Bacillus subtilis strain isolated from a hot-spring was shown to produce xylanolytic enzymes. Their associative/synergistic effect was studied using a culture medium with oat spelts xylan as xylanase inducer. Optimal xylanase production of about 12 U ml −1 was achieved at pH 6.0 and 50°C, within 18 h fermentation. At 50°C, xylanase productivity obtained after 11 h in shake-flasks, 96,000 U l −1 h −1, and in reactor, 104,000 U l −1 h −1 was similar. Increasing temperature to 55°C a higher productivity was obtained in the batch reactor 45,000 U l −1 h −1, compared to shake-flask fermentations, 12,000 U l −1 h −1. Optimal xylanolytic activity was reached at 60°C on phosphate buffer, at pH 6.0. The xylanase is thermostable, presenting full stability at 60°C during 3 h. Further increase in the temperature caused a correspondent decrease in the residual activity. At 90°C, 20% relative activity remains after 14 min. Under optimised fermentation conditions, no cellulolytic activity was detected on the extract. Protein disulphide reducing agents, such as DTT, enhanced xylanolytic activity about 2.5-fold. When is used xylan as substrate, xylanase production decreased as function of time in contrast, with trehalose as carbon source, xylanase production in maintained constant for at least 80 h fermentation. 相似文献

The therapeutic enzyme asparaginase, which is used for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, is industrially produced by the bacteria Escherichia coli or Erwinia crysanthemi. In spite of its effectiveness as a therapeutic agent, the drug causes severe immunological reactions. As asparaginase is also produced by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, this microorganism could be considered for the production of the enzyme, providing an alternative antitumoral agent. In this study the ASP3 gene, that codes for the periplasmic, nitrogen regulated, asparaginase II from S. cerevisiae, was cloned and expressed in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, under the control of the AOX1 gene promoter. Similarly to S. cerevisiae the heterologous enzyme was addressed to the P. pastoris cell periplasmic space. Enzyme yield per dry cell mass reached 800 U g −1, which was seven fold higher than that obtained using a nitrogen de-repressed ure2 dal80 S. cerevisiae strain. High cell density cultures performed with P. pastoris harbouring the ASP3 gene using a 2 l instrumented bioreactor, where biomass concentration reached 107 g l −1, resulted in a dramatic increase in volumetric yield (85,600 U l −1) and global volumetric productivity (1083 U l −1 h −1). 相似文献
