Inhibitory effects and biotransformation of acrylic acid in computer-controlled pH-stat CSTRs

In this study, the inhibitory effects and anaerobic biotransformation of acrylic acid in computer-controlled pH-stat completely stirred tank reactors (CSTRs) with two different cultures, namely unacclimated and acrylate-acclimated acetate-enriched Methanosarcina and homogenized (crushed) granular cultures, were investigated. The microbial acclimation, influent concentration, and loading rate of acrylic acid were studied in the experiments. The experimental results revealed that methanogenic cultures at a concentration of 3200 +/- 80 mg/L as volatile suspended solids (VSS) could be acclimated to acrylic acid up to a loading rate of 220 mg/L per day (0.068 g acrylic acid/g VSS per day) in the presence of a constant acetate concentration of 2000 +/- 200 mg/L as the primary substrate after 300 days of acclimation. The same cultures (680 +/- 80 mg/L as VSS), after 80 days of acclimation to acrylic acid as the sole carbon source, transformed acrylic acid up to the loading rate of about 200 mg/L per day (0.29 g acrylic acid/g VSS per day) almost completely (>99%) to acetic and propionic acid, but could not effectively metabolize these intermediate products. Acrylate-acclimated homogenized granular cultures (6900 +/- 80 mg/L as VSS) effectively metabolized 2200 mg/L per day (0.32 g acrylic acid/g VSS per day) of acrylic acid, as the sole carbon source, after 50 days of severe inhibition.     

Toxic effects of acrylic acid on Clostridium propionicum and isolation of acrylic acid‐tolerant mutants for production of acrylic acid

This work presents a systematic investigation of the toxic effects of acrylic acid on the growth of Clostridium propionicum and the isolation of acrylic acid‐tolerant mutants. The results suggest that addition of acrylic acid prolonged the lag phase of the fermentation and reduced the initial‐specific growth rate, as well as the final cell concentration. Moreover, the toxic effect of acrylic acid was sensitive to the pH value. The minimal inhibition concentration of acrylic acid increased from 1.11 to 31.25 mM when the pH value rose from 5.8 to 7.4. In addition, the molar concentration ratio of products (acetic acid:propionic acid) was enhanced with the supplementation of acrylic acid. The highest ratio was 0.7:1 when acrylic acid was 20.83 mM at pH 7.4. Two acrylic acid‐tolerant mutants were isolated, which could still grow at a high concentration (43.06 mM) of acrylic acid. These strains could be instrumental for improved bioproduction of acrylic acid.     

Effective 5-aminolevulinic acid production via T7 RNA polymerase and RuBisCO equipped Escherichia coli W3110

Chromosome-based engineering is a superior approach for gene integration generating a stable and robust chassis. Therefore, an effective amplifier, T7 RNA polymerase (T7RNAP) from bacteriophage, has been incorporated into Escherichia coli W3110 by site-specific integration. Herein, we performed the 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) production in four T7RNAP-equipped W3110 strains using recombinant 5-aminolevulinic synthase and further explored the metabolic difference in best strain. The fastest glucose consumption resulted in the highest biomass and the 5-ALA production reached to 5.5 g/L; thus, the least by-product of acetate was shown in RH strain in which T7RNAP was inserted at HK022 phage attack site. Overexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase would pull PEP to oxaloacetic acid in tricarboxylic acid cycle, leading to energy conservation and even no acetate production, thus, 6.53 g/L of 5-ALA was achieved. Amino acid utilization in RH deciphered the major metabolic flux in α-ketoglutaric acid dominating 5-ALA production. Finally, the ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO) and phosphoribulokinase were expressed for carbon dioxide recycling; a robust and efficient chassis toward low-carbon assimilation and high-level of 5-ALA production up to 11.2 g/L in fed-batch fermentation was established.     

Growth and siderophore production inBradyrhizobium (lupin) strains under iron limitation

SixBradyrhizobium (lupin) strains were evaluated for their ability to produce siderophores using four chemical assays. Two strains gave positive reactions with chrome azurol S assay (CAS) and produced hydroxamate-type siderophores. The other four strains gave negative results for siderophore production using the four assays. Generation time, growth yield and hydroxamate production of one strain (WPBS 3201 D) were affected by the iron concentration of the culture medium and the previous culture history of the cells. Resuspension of washed cells grown previously in media supplemented with 0 and 20 μmol/L Fe into differing iron regimes (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10, 15 and 20 μmol/L Fe) suggest that the extent of hydroxamate production depended on the growth history of the cells. Cells pregrown in 20 μmol/L Fe produced a high amount of hydroxamates compared with cells pregrown in iron-free medium when resuspended in medium containing up to 4 μmol/L Fe. Cells pregrown in 20 μmol/L Fe were more sensitive to iron repression than those pregrown in 0.5 μmol/L Fe. Mannitol was the best carbon source for siderophore production. Siderophore synthesis was inhibited by 4-chloromercuribenzenesulfonic acid, 2,4-dinitrophenol, sodium azide and MgCl₂ suggesting that an energized membrane and a mercapto group are essential and required for hydroxamate synthesis in strain WPB5 3201 D.

Efficient decolorization and detoxification of sulphonated azo dye Ponceau 4R by using single and mixed bacterial consortia

Abstract

The decolorization of toxic azo dye Ponceau 4R by three strains of bacteria Bacillus sp. strain AK1, Lysinibacillus sp. strain AK2 and Kerstersia sp. strain VKY1 individually and in consortia was studied. At optimal conditions, up to 95%, 93% and 87% of the dye was decolorized by the strains AK1, AK2 and VKY1, respectively, in 24?h at 200?mg/L of the dye. Decolorization of the dye was optimized for different parameters such as the concentration of dye, pH, temperature and NaCl concentration. These strains were able to decolorize Ponceau 4R up to an initial concentration of 800?mg/L in the pH range of 5–10, temperature 25–55?°C and NaCl concentration up to 30?g/L. The dye decolorization efficiency of these strains was further enhanced by using different consortia of AK1, AK2 and VKY1 in various combinations. The complete decolorization of the dye by a consortium was achieved within 18?h at 200?mg/L. The cell-free extract of these strains grown on this dye exhibited a remarkable activity of azoreductase which is involved in the breakage of the azo bond. The steady-state kinetics of azoreductase, validated the ping pong Bi-Bi mechanism of enzyme action. UV–Vis spectra, HPLC, FTIR and LC-MS analysis of the dye decolorized samples showed the formation of 4-aminonaphthalene-1-sulphonic acid and 5-amino-6-hydroxynaphthalene-2, 4-disulphonic acid as the products of azo bond breakage. The phytotoxicity test of decolorized sample revealed a considerable reduction in the toxicity in comparison with the parent dye.     

Genetic diversity of Listeria monocytogenes strains from a high-prevalence dairy farm

Listeria monocytogenes is a significant food-borne human and veterinary pathogen. Contaminated silage commonly leads to disease in livestock, but the pervasive nature of the bacterium can make it difficult to identify the source of infection. An investigation of bovine listeriosis that occurred on a Pacific Northwest dairy farm ("farm A") revealed that the clinical strain was closely related to fecal strains from asymptomatic cows, and that farm environment was heavily contaminated with a diversity of L. monocytogenes strains. In addition, the farm A clinical strain was closely related to clinical and environmental strains obtained 1 year prior from a second Northwest dairy farm ("farm B"). To investigate the source(s) of contamination on farm A, environmental samples were collected from farm A at two time points. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis characterization of 538 isolates obtained from that farm identified 57 different AscI pulsovars. Fecal isolates obtained from individual cows were the most genetically diverse, with up to 94% of fecal samples containing more than one pulsovar. The maximum numbers of pulsovars and serotypes isolated from a fecal sample of one cow were 6 and 4, respectively. Serotype 1/2a was isolated most frequently at both time points. Microarray genotyping of bovine listeriosis, fecal, and silage strains from both farms identified four probes that differentiated listeriosis strains from environmental strains; however, no probe was common to both bovine listeriosis strains.     

单宁酸对淡色库蚊抗氰戊菊酯品系和敏感品系幼虫生长发育的影响

单宁酸是一种植物次生代谢物, 为探索其用于蚊幼虫防治的可能性,在室内测定了其对淡色库蚊Culex pipiens pallens抗氰戊菊酯品系和敏感品系1～4龄幼虫的毒性,并观察了其对存活幼虫生长发育的影响。结果表明,淡色库蚊敏感品系幼虫对单宁酸的敏感性比抗氰戊菊酯品系的要高,1～4龄幼虫分别高6.4、4.9、4.7和2.0倍。4个龄期幼虫中,无论是敏感品系还是抗氰戊菊酯品系,均是1龄幼虫对单宁酸的敏感性最高,3龄幼虫最低。在1 000 mg/L单宁酸持续作用下,敏感品系和抗氰戊菊酯品系各龄幼虫的存活率,均随处理时间延长而降低。与对照相比,饲养在100 mg/L～500 mg/L单宁酸溶液中的存活幼虫发育历期延长,敏感品系和抗氰戊菊酯品系发育历期分别延长了34.5～38.3 h和59.2～93.4 h。其中,125 mg/L浓度处理的敏感品系1～4龄幼虫,其发育历期与对照的差异达到了显著水平(P<0.05);抗性品系则在250 mg/L作用下也达到了差异显著水平(P<0.05)。但100～250 mg/L单宁酸处理淡色库蚊抗氰戊菊酯品系和敏感品系1龄幼虫,对其存活幼虫的化蛹率、羽化率和成虫性比均无显著影响。表明单宁酸对淡色库蚊幼虫的影响主要是延迟其生长发育,且影响程度与蚊虫对氰戊菊酯的敏感性有关。     

Enzymatic esterification of beta-methylglucoside with acrylic/methacrylic acid in organic solvents

The enzymatic esterifications of beta-methylglucoside with acrylic acid/methacrylic acid were carried out using Novozym 435. t-Butanol indicating the highest conversion value was determined as an optimal solvent. The molar ratio (beta-methylglucoside:acids) of 1:15 was most favorable to the esterification. The enzyme concentration of 5% (w/v), and the temperature (50 degrees C for beta-methylglucoside:acrylic acid, 45 degrees C for beta-methylglucoside:methacrylic acid) resulted in the highest final conversion. Beta-methylglucoside of 60gl(-1) was found to be most effective in terms of short reaction time as well as product concentrations. Under these conditions, the maximum conversions for the esterification of beta-methylglucoside with acrylic acid and beta-methylglucoside with methacrylic acid were 59.3% after 12h and 71.3% after 72h, respectively. The structural analysis of the products was performed by FT-IR spectroscopy and (1)H NMR.
