This work describes the effects of the presence of the yeast Dekkera bruxellensis and the bacterium Lactobacillus vini on the industrial production of ethanol from sugarcane fermentation. Both contaminants were quantified in industrial samples, and their presence was correlated to a decrease in ethanol concentration and accumulation of sugar. Then, laboratory mixed-cell fermentations were carried out to evaluate the effects of these presumed contaminants on the viability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the overall ethanol yield. The results showed that high residual sugar seemed the most significant factor arising from the presence of D. bruxellensis in the industrial process when compared to pure S. cerevisiae cultures. Moreover, when L. vini was added to S. cerevisiae cultures it did not appear to affect the yeast cells by any kind of antagonistic effect under stable fermentations. In addition, when L. vini was added to D. bruxellensis cultures, it showed signs of being able to stimulate the fermentative activity of the yeast cells in a way that led to an increase in the ethanol yield.  相似文献

The anaerobic growth of a respiration-deficient mutant of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on solid medium was estimated by the CO2 evolution rate (CER). The cell growth and ethanol production were calculated by a growth-model associated with CER. The estimated cell growth agreed with the observed data. The calculation and the observed CER suggested that the maximum ethanol production and maximum cell groth are restricted by the initial moisture content of the solid medium.  相似文献

The yeast Dekkera bruxellensis plays an important role in industrial fermentation processes, either as a contaminant or as a fermenting yeast. In this study, an analysis has been conducted of the fermentation characteristics of several industrial D. bruxellensis strains collected from distilleries from the Southeast and Northeast of Brazil, compared with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It was found that all the strains of D. bruxellensis showed a lower fermentative capacity as a result of inefficient sugar assimilation, especially sucrose, under anaerobiosis, which is called the Custer effect. In addition, most of the sugar consumed by D. bruxellensis seemed to be used for biomass production, as was observed by the increase of its cell population during the fermentation recycles. In mixed populations, the surplus of D. bruxellensis over S. cerevisiae population could not be attributed to organic acid production by the first yeast, as previously suggested. Moreover, both yeast species showed similar sensitivity to lactic and acetic acids and were equally resistant to ethanol, when added exogenously to the fermentation medium. Thus, the effects that lead to the employment of D. bruxellensis in an industrial process and its effects on the production of ethanol are multivariate. The difficulty of using this yeast for ethanol production is that it requires the elimination of the Custer effect to allow an increase in the assimilation of sugar under anaerobic conditions.  相似文献

甘油是酿酒酵母乙醇代谢途径中的主要副产物,降低甘油生成,可以提高乙醇的产率和原料的利用率。以工业酒精酵母单倍体S1(MATa)为研究对象,构建了一个4.5 kb左右的基因敲除突变盒gpd2Δ::PGK1PT-POS5-HyBR,利用醋酸锂转化法转入S1,得到重组菌S3(gpd2Δ::PGK1PT-POS5-HyBR),使得工业酒精酵母在敲除GPD2的同时整合过表达了NADH激酶基因POS5。结果表明,在150 g/L的葡萄糖摇瓶发酵实验中,重组菌S3在不影响菌株生理特性的条件下,乙醇得率(g ethanol/g glucose)比原始菌株S1提高了8%,甘油得率(g glycerol/g glucose)降低了33.64%。本研究证明过表达NADH激酶基因可降低乙醇发酵中副产物甘油的生成并提高乙醇得率。  相似文献

Pure nonhydrolyzed inulin was directly converted to ethanol in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process. An inulinase-hyperproducing mutant, Aspergillus niger 817, was grown in a submerged culture at 30 degrees C for 5 days. The inulin-digestive liquid culture (150 ml) was supplemented with 45 g of inulin, 0.45 g of (NH4)2SO4, and 0.15 g of KH2PO4. The medium (pH 5.0) was inoculated with an ethanol-tolerant strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 1200, and fermentation was conducted at 30 degrees C. An additional 20 g of inulin was added to the culture after 15 h of fermentation. S. cerevisiae 1200 utilized 99% of the 65 g of inulin during the fermentation, and produced 20.4 and 21.0% (vol/vol) ethanol from chicory and dahlia inulins, respectively, within 3 days of fermentation. The maximum volumetric productivities of ethanol were 6.2 and 6.0 g/liter/h for chicory and dahlia inulins, respectively. The conversion efficiency of inulin to ethanol was 83 to 84% of the theoretical ethanol yield.  相似文献

The final ethanol concentration achieved was increased by 17% (to 103 g ethanol/l) when excess assimilable nitrogen was added to the batch very high gravity (VHG) ethanolic fermentations by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The supplementation of the media with 12 g yeast extract l–1, 0.3 g cell walls l–1, 3 g glycine l–1 and 20 g soya flour l–1 led to halving reduction of the fermentation time to 28 h. The ethanol productivity was enhanced by more than 50% (to achieved value 3.3 g l–1 h–1).  相似文献

The yeast Dekkera bruxellensis is considered to be very well adapted to industrial environments, in Brazil, USA, Canada and European Countries, when different substrates are used in alcoholic fermentations. Our previous study described its fermentative profile with a sugarcane juice substrate. In this study, we have extended its physiological evaluation to fermentation situations by using sugarcane molasses as a substrate to replicate industrial working conditions. The results have confirmed the previous reports of the low capacity of D. bruxellensis cells to assimilate sucrose, which seems to be the main factor that can cause a bottleneck in its use as fermentative yeast. Furthermore, the cells of D. bruxellensis showed a tendency to deviate most of sugar available for biomass and organic acids (lactic and acetic) compared with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, when calculated on the basis of their respective yields. As well as this, the acetate production from molasses medium by both yeasts was in marked contrast with the previous data on sugarcane juice. Glycerol and ethanol production by D. bruxellensis cells achieved levels of 33 and 53 % of the S. cerevisiae, respectively. However, the ethanol yield was similar for both yeasts. It is worth noting that this yeast did not accumulate trehalose when the intracellular glycogen content was 30 % lower than in S. cerevisiae. The lack of trehalose did not affect yeast viability under fermentation conditions. Thus, the adaptive success of D. bruxellensis under industrial fermentation conditions seems to be unrelated to the production of these reserve carbohydrates.  相似文献

The development of microorganims that efficiently ferment lactose has a high biotechnological interest, particularly for cheese whey bioremediation processes with simultaneous bio-ethanol production. The lactose fermentation performance of a recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae flocculent strain was evaluated. The yeast consumed rapidly and completely lactose concentrations up to 150 g l−1 in either well- or micro-aerated batch fermentations. The maximum ethanol titre was 8% (v/v) and the highest ethanol productivity was 1.5–2 g l−1 h−1, in micro-aerated fermentations. The results presented here emphasise that this strain is an interesting alternative for the production of ethanol from lactose-based feedstocks.  相似文献

Aim: To study the effect of glucose concentrations on the growth by Brettanomyces bruxellensis yeast strain in batch experiments and develop a mathematical model for kinetic behaviour analysis of yeast growing in batch culture. Methods and Results: A Matlab algorithm was developed for the estimation of model parameters. Glucose fermentation by B. bruxellensis was studied by varying its concentration (5, 9·3, 13·8, 16·5, 17·6 and 21·4%). The increase in substrate concentration up to a certain limit was accompanied by an increase in ethanol and biomass production; at a substrate concentration of 50–138 g l?1, the ethanol and biomass production were 24, 59 and 6·3, 11·4 g l?1, respectively. However, an increase in glucose concentration to 165 g l?1 led to a drastic decrease in product formation and substrate utilization. Conclusions: The model successfully simulated the batch kinetic observed in all cases. The confidence intervals were also estimated at each phase at a 0·95 probability level in a t‐Student distribution for f degrees of freedom. The maximum ethanol and biomass yields were obtained with an initial glucose concentration of 138 g l?1. Significance and Impact of the Study: These experiments illustrate the importance of using a mathematical model applied to kinetic behaviour on glucose concentration by B. bruxellensis.  相似文献

The influence of cell recycling of xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae TMB3001 was investigated during continuous cultivation on a xylose-glucose mixture. By using cell recycling at the dilution rate ( D) of 0.05 h(-1), the cell-mass concentration could be increased from 2.2 g l(-1) to 22 g l(-1). Consequently, the volumetric ethanol productivity increased ten-fold, from 0.5 g l(-1) h(-1) to 5.35 g l(-1) h(-1). By increasing the biomass concentration, the xylose consumption rate increased from 0.75 g xylose l(-1) h(-1) without recycling to 1.9 g l(-1) h(-1) with recycling. The specific ethanol productivity was in the range of 0.23-0.26 g g(-1) h(-1) with or without cell recycling, showing that an increased cell-mass concentration did not influence the efficiency of the yeast.  相似文献

During bioethanol fermentation process, Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell membrane might provide main protection to tolerate accumulated ethanol, and S. cerevisiae cells might also remodel their membrane compositions or structure to try to adapt to or tolerate the ethanol stress. However, the exact changes and roles of S. cerevisiae cell membrane components during bioethanol fermentation still remains poorly understood. This study was performed to clarify changes and roles of S. cerevisiae cell membrane components during bioethanol fermentation. Both cell diameter and membrane integrity decreased as fermentation time lasting. Moreover, compared with cells at lag phase, cells at exponential and stationary phases had higher contents of ergosterol and oleic acid (C18:1) but lower levels of hexadecanoic (C16:0) and palmitelaidic (C16:1) acids. Contents of most detected phospholipids presented an increase tendency during fermentation process. Increased contents of oleic acid and phospholipids containing unsaturated fatty acids might indicate enhanced cell membrane fluidity. Compared with cells at lag phase, cells at exponential and stationary phases had higher expressions of ACC1 and HFA1. However, OLE1 expression underwent an evident increase at exponential phase but a decrease at following stationary phase. These results indicated that during bioethanol fermentation process, yeast cells remodeled membrane and more changeable cell membrane contributed to acquiring higher ethanol tolerance of S. cerevisiae cells. These results highlighted our knowledge about relationship between the variation of cell membrane structure and compositions and ethanol tolerance, and would contribute to a better understanding of bioethanol fermentation process and construction of industrial ethanologenic strains with higher ethanol tolerance.  相似文献

Considerable controversy exists concerning the intracellular concentration of ethanol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae during fermentation. This controversy results from problems in the measurement of the intracellular concentration of compounds like ethanol, which are being produced rapidly by metabolism and potentially diffuse rapidly from the cell. We used a new method for the determination of intracellular ethanol based on the exclusion of [14C]sorbitol to estimate the aqueous cell volume. This method avoided many of the technical problems in previous reports. Our results indicate that the extracellular concentrations of ethanol in fermenting suspensions of S. cerevisiae are less than or equal to those in the intracellular environment and do not increase to the high levels previously reported even during the most active stages of batch fermentation.  相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells from a stationary culture were permeabilized with 1% toluene, 4% ethanol and 0.075% Triton X-100. Not only sugars but also ATP, NAD+, magnesium and inorganic phosphate must be simultaneously added to initiate the ethanol fermentation. The optimal pH for the fermentation was between 6.9 to 7.0. Sucrose was a better substrate than glucose. Ethanol fermentation was greatly stimulated by the addition of 1 mM arsenate. Under this condition, permeabilized cells continued to produce ethanol for more than one hour at the rate of 0.141 mmol ethanol/min/mg protein. Methanol inhibited the fermentation with intact cells but did not inhibit the one using permeabilized cells. In contrast, propanol inhibited fermentations both with intact and permeabilized cells.  相似文献

 The fermentation characteristics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains which overexpress a constitutive OLE1 gene were studied to clarify the relationship between the fatty acid composition of this yeast and its ethanol productivity. The growth yield and ethanol productivity of these strains in the medium containing 15% dextrose at 10 °C were greater than those of the control strains under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions but this difference was not observed under other culture conditions. During repeated-batch fermentation, moreover, the growth yield and ethanol productivity of the wild-type S. cerevisiae increased gradually and then were similar to those of the OLE1-overexpressing transformant in the last batch fermentation. However, the unsaturated fatty acid content (77.6%) of the wild-type cells was lower than that (86.2%) of the OLE1-recombinant cells. These results suggested that other phenomena caused by the overexpression of the OLE1 gene, rather than high unsaturated fatty acid content, are essential to ethanol fermentation by this yeast.

The release of acetic acid due to deacetylation of the hemicellulose fraction during the treatment of lignocellulosic biomass contributes to the inhibitory character of the generated hydrolysates. In the present study, we identified a strain-independent adaptation protocol consisting of pre-cultivating the strain at pH 5.0 in the presence of at least 4 g L?1 acetic acid that enabled aerobic growth and improved fermentation performance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells at low pH (3.7) and in the presence of inhibitory levels of acetic acid (6 g L?1). During anaerobic cultivation with adapted cells of strain TMB3500, the specific ethanol production rate was increased, reducing the fermentation time to 48 %.  相似文献
