This study explores a novel concept of coproduction of uricase and alkaline protease by Bacillus licheniformis using single substrate in single step. Seven local bacterial strains were screened for uricase production, amongst which B. licheniformis is found to produce highest uricase along with alkaline protease. Optimization of various factors influencing maximum enzyme coproduction by B. licheniformis is performed. Maximum enzyme productivity of 0.386?U/mL uricase and 0.507?U/mL alkaline protease is obtained at 8?hr of incubation period, 1% (v/v) inoculum, and at 0.2% (w/v) uric acid when the organism is cultivated at 25°C, 180?rpm, in a media containing xylose as a carbon source, urea as a nitrogen source, and initial pH of 9.5. The statistical experimental design method of Box–Behnken was further applied to obtain optimal concentration of significant parameters such as pH (9.5), uric acid concentration (0.1%), and urea concentration (0.05%). The maximum uricase and alkaline protease production by B. licheniformis using Box–Behnken design was 0.616 and 0.582?U/mL, respectively, with 1.6- and 1.13-fold increase as compared to one factor at a time optimized media. This study will be useful to develop an economic, commercially viable, and scalable process for simultaneous production of uricase and protease enzymes.  相似文献

Due to the extensive applications of vanillin as flavored compound and increasing consumers concern for its natural and environment friendly mode of production, present work was focused on the selection of bacterial isolate capable of producing vanillin using eugenol biotransformation. Bacterial strain SMS1003 is evidenced as the potential strain for vanillin production and identified as Bacillus safensis (GeneBank accession no. MG561863) using biochemical tests and molecular phylogenic analysis of its 16S rDNA gene sequence. Molar yield of vanillin reached up to 10.7% (0.055?g/L) at 96?h of biotransformation using growing culture of B. safensis SMS1003 in following culture conditions: eugenol concentration 500?mg/L; temperature 37?°C; initial pH 7.0; inoculum volume 4%; volume of culture media 10%; and shaking speed 180?rpm. Vanillin was detected as the single metabolite with a molar yield of 26% (0.12?g/L) at 96?h using resting cells of B. safensis SMS1003. Product confirmation was based on spectral scan using photodiode array detector, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography, and mass spectroscopy.  相似文献

The production of cellulase by Bacillus subtilis MU S1, a strain isolated from Eravikulam National Park, was optimized using one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) and statistical methods. Physical parameters like incubation temperature and agitation speed were optimized using OFAT and found to be 40?°C and 150?rpm, respectively, whereas, medium was optimized by statistical tools. Plackett-Burman design (PBD) was employed to screen the significant variables that highly influence cellulase production. The design showed carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), yeast extract, NaCl, pH, MgSO4 and NaNO3 as the most significant components that affect cellulase production. Among these CMC, yeast extract, NaCl and pH showed positive effect whereas MgSO4 and NaNO3 were found to be significant at their lower levels. The optimum levels of the components that positively affect enzyme production were determined using response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CCD). Three factors namely CMC, yeast extract and NaCl were studied at five levels whilst pH of the medium was kept constant at 7. The optimal levels of the components were CMC (13.46?g/l), yeast extract (8.38?g/l) and NaCl (6.31?g/l) at pH 7. The maximum cellulase activity in optimized medium was 566.66?U/ml which was close to the predicted activity of 541.05?U/ml. Optimization of physical parameters and medium components showed an overall 3.2-fold increase in activity compared to unoptimized condition (179.06?U/ml).  相似文献

Background: Microbial γ-glutamyl transpeptidases (GGTs) have been exploited in biotechnological, pharmaceutical, and food sectors for the synthesis of various γ-glutamyl compounds. But, till date, no bacterial GGTs are commercially available in the market because of lower levels of production from various sources. In the current study, production of GGT from Bacillus licheniformis ER15 was investigated to achieve high GGT titers. Results: Hyperproduction of GGT from B. licheniformis ER15 was achieved with 6.4-fold enhancement (7921.2?±?198.7?U/L) by optimization of culture medium following one-variable-at-a-time strategy and statistical approaches. Medium consisting of Na2HPO4: 0.32% (w/v); KH2PO4: 0.15% (w/v); starch: 0.1% (w/v); soybean meal: 0.5% (w/v); NaCl: 4.0% (w/v), and MgCl2: 5?mM was found to be optimal for maximum GGT titers. Maximum GGT titers were obtained, in the optimized medium at 37°C and 200?rpm, after 40?h. It was noteworthy that GGT production was a linear function of sodium chloride concentration, as observed during response surface methodology. While investigating the role of NaCl on GGT production, it was found that NaCl drastically decreased subtilisin concentration and indirectly increasing GGT recovery. Conclusion: B. licheniformis ER15 is proved to be a potential candidate for large-scale production of GGT enzyme and its commercialization.  相似文献

Abstract

The novel technology of biological carbon sequestration using microbial enzymes have numerous advantages over conventional sequestration strategies. In the present study, extracellular carbonic anhydrase (CA) producing bacteria were isolated from water samples in the Arabian Sea, India. A potential isolate, Bacillus safensis isolate AS-75 was identified based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The culture conditions suitable for CA production were 32?°C incubation temperature with 4% NaCl and 10?mM Zn supplementation. Experimental optimization of culture conditions enhanced enzyme activity to 265?U mL?1. CA specific gene was characterized and based on the analysis, the CA of B. safensis isolate AS-75 was a leucine (11.3%) with α-helices as the dominant component in its secondary structure. Based on soil microcosm studies, CA could sequester CO2 by 95.4%?±?0.11% in sterilized soil with enzyme microcosm. Hence, the application of enzyme was found to be more effective in removing CO2.  相似文献

Alkaline pectin lyase finds applications in the degumming and retting of plant fibres, textile industry and pectic wastewater treatment where it degrades highly methylesterified pectin without prior action of any other pectinase. Response surface methodology (RSM) has been frequently utilized for the optimization of production process of industrially important enzymes from microbes. In the present work, fermentation conditions for the production of pectin lyase from Bacillus cereus were optimized using the factorial and central composite design of RSM. The cubic order polynomial regression model was found to be adequate and significant with a determination coefficient R2 of 0.9505 (p?相似文献

In this study, we isolated and characterized a novel feather-degrading bacterium that shows keratinolytic, antifungal and plant growth-promoting activities. A bacterium S8 was isolated from forest soil and confirmed to belong to Bacillus subtilis by BIOLOG system and 16S rRNA gene analysis. The improved culture conditions for the production of keratinolytic protease were 0.1% (w/v) sorbitol, 0.3% (w/v) KNO3, 0.1% (w/v) K2HPO4, 0.06% (w/v) KH2PO4 and 0.04% (w/v) MgCl2·6H2O (pH 8.0 and 30°C), respectively. In the improved medium containing 0.1% (w/v) feather, keratinolytic protease production was around 53.3 ± 0.3 U/ml at 4 day; this value was 10-fold higher than the yield in the basal feather medium (5.3 ± 0.1 U/ml). After cultivation for 5 days in the improved medium, intact feather was completely degraded. Feather degradation resulted in free –SH group, soluble protein and amino acids production. The concentration of free –SH group in the culture medium was 15.5 ± 0.2 μM at 4 days. Nineteen amino acids including all essential amino acids were produced in the culture medium; the concentration of total amino acid produced was 3360.4 μM. Proline (2809.9 μM), histidine (371.3 μM) and phenylalanine (172.0 μM) were the major amino acids released in the culture medium. B. subtilis S8 showed the properties related to plant growth promotion: hydrolytic enzymes, ammonification, indoleacetic acid (IAA), phosphate solubilization, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. Interestingly, the strain S8 grown in the improved medium produced IAA and antifungal activity, indicating simultaneous production of keratinolytic and antifungal activities and IAA by B. subtilis S8. These results suggest that B. subtilis S8 could be not only used to improve the nutritional value of feather wastes but also is useful in situ biodegradation of feather wastes. Furthermore, it could also be a potential biofertilizer or biocontrol agent applicable to crop plant soil.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate environmental conditions affecting chicken feather degradation and keratinolytic enzyme production by Bacillus megaterium F7-1, a feather-degrading mesophilic bacterium. B. megaterium F7-1 degraded whole chicken feather completely within 7 days. The bacterium grew with an optimum at pH 7.0–11.0 and 25–40 °C, where maximum keratinolytic activity was also observed. The production of keratinolytic enzyme by B. megaterium F7-1 was inducible with feather. Keratinolytic enzyme production by B. megaterium F7-1 at 0.6% (w/v) skim milk was 468 U/ml, which was about 9.4-fold higher than that without skim milk. The amount of keratinolytic enzyme production depended on feather concentrations. The degradation rate of autoclaved chicken feathers by cell-free culture supernatant was 26% after 24 h of incubation, but the degradation of untreated chicken feathers was unsuccessful. B. megaterium F7-1 effectively degraded feather meal, duck feather and human nail, whereas human hair and sheep wool showed relatively low degradation rates. B. megaterium F7-1 presented high keratinolytic activity and was very effective in feather degradation, providing potential use for biotechnological processes of keratin hydrolysis.  相似文献

Optimal conditions for pilot-scale production of the carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens DL-3 were investigated. The best carbon and nitrogen sources for the production of CMCase by B. amyloliquefaciens DL-3 were found to be rice hull and peptone and their optimal concentrations were 5.0 and 0.20% (w/v), respectively. Optimal temperature and initial pH for the production of CMCase were 37°C and 6.8. Optimal agitation speed and aeration rate for the production of CMCase were 300 rpm and 1.0 vvm in a 7 L bioreactor, which were different from those for the cell growth of B. amyloliquefaciens DL-3. The highest productions of CMCase by B. amyloliquefaciens DL-3 from 5.0% (w/v) rice hull as a carbon source under optimal conditions in a 7 or 100 L bioreactor were 220 and 367 U/mL, respectively.  相似文献

A sequential optimization based on statistical design and one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) method was employed to optimize the media constituents for the improvement of citric acid production from oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) through solid state bioconversion using Aspergillus niger IBO-103MNB. The results obtained from the Plackett–Burman design indicated that the co-substrate (sucrose), stimulator (methanol) and minerals (Zn, Cu, Mn and Mg) were found to be the major factors for further optimization. Based on the OFAT method, the selected medium constituents and inoculum concentration were optimized by the central composite design (CCD) under the response surface methodology (RSM). The statistical analysis showed that the optimum media containing 6.4% (w/w) of sucrose, 9% (v/w) of minerals and 15.5% (v/w) of inoculum gave the maximum production of citric acid (337.94 g/kg of dry EFB). The analysis showed that sucrose (p < 0.0011) and mineral solution (p < 0.0061) were more significant compared to inoculum concentration (p < 0.0127) for the citric acid production.  相似文献

Abstract

Production of tannase was performed in packed bed reactor filled with an inert support polyurethane foam (PUF) using Bacillus gottheilii M2S2. The influence of process parameters such as fermentation time (24–72?h), tannic acid concentration (0.5–2.5% w/v), inoculum size (7–12% v/v), and aeration rate (0–0.2?L/min) on tannase production with PUF were analyzed using one variable at a time (OVAT) approach. The outcome of OVAT was optimized by central composite design. Based on the statistical investigation, the proposed mathematical model recommends 1% (w/v) of tannic acid, 10% (v/v) of inoculum size and 0.13?L/min of aeration rate for maximum production (76.57?±?1.25?U/L). The crude enzyme was purified using ammonium sulfate salt precipitation method followed by dialysis. The biochemical properties of partially purified tannase were analyzed and found the optimum pH (4.0), temperature (40?°C) for activity, and Km (1.077?mM) and Vmax (1.11?µM/min) with methyl gallate as a substrate. Based on the SDS-PAGE analysis, tannase exhibited two bands with molecular weights of 57.5 and 42.3?kDa. Briefly, the partially purified tannase showed 4.2 fold increase (63?±?1.60?U/L) in comparison to the submerged fermentation and the production of tannase was validated by using NMR spectrometer.  相似文献

Medium optimization for the nuclease (RNase) production by Bacillus firmus VKPACU-1 was studied using the one-factor-at-a-time method and Response Surface Methodology (RSM). One-factor-at-a-time methodology was used to study the effects of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus sources, and physical conditions such as pH and temperature, on nuclease (RNase) production. After optimizing the carbon (glucose) and nitrogen (tryptone) sources in the culture medium the physical conditions, pH (6.5) and temperature (35°C) were also optimized. Later these conditions were chosen as the main factors and used in the experimental design. The central composite design (CCD) of the RSM was employed to evaluate the interactive effects of these four variables. The optimized values obtained by the statistical analysis showed that glucose 5.95 g/L, tryptone 22.5 g/L, pH 6.5, and temperature 35°C affected maximum nuclease (RNase) production. When utilizing these proposed optimized conditions, the model predicted nuclease (RNase) production of 43.6 U/mL and in the validation experiments, the nuclease production obtained was 46.5 U/mL. The nuclease production in medium optimized by RSM was 26% higher, than in the non-optimized medium.  相似文献

Abstract

The present work was aimed at studying the production of lignocellulolytic enzymes, namely cellulase, xylanase, pectinase, mannanase, and laccase by a newly isolated bacterium Sphingobacterium sp. ksn-11, utilizing various agro-residues as a substrate under submerged conditions. The production of lignocellulolytic enzymes was found to be maximum at the loading of 10%(w/v) agro-residues. The enzyme secretion was enhanced by two-fold at 2?mM CaCO3, optimum pH 7, and temperature 40°. The Field Emission Gun-Scanning Electron Microscope (FEG-SEM) results have shown the degradative effect of lignocellulases; cellulase, xylanase, mannanase, pectinase, and laccase on corn husk with 3.55?U/ml, 79.22?U/ml, 12.43?U/ml, 64.66?U/ml, and 21.12?U/ml of activity, respectively. The hydrolyzed corn husk found to be good adsorbent for polyphenols released during hydrolysis of corn husk providing suitable conditions for stability of lignocellulases. Sphingobacterium sp. ksn is proved to be a promising candidate for lignocellulolytic enzymes in view of demand for enzymes in the biofuel industry.  相似文献

Summary Haloalkaliphilic, gram positive, aerobic, coccoid Bacillus sp. Po2 was isolated from a seawater sample in Gujarat, India. On the basis of 16s rRNA gene homology, Po2 was 95% related to Bacillus pseudofirmus. A substantial level of extracellular alkaline protease was produced by Po2, which corresponded with the growth and reached a maximum level (264 U/ml) during the stationary phase at 24 h. The production thereafter remained nearly static at optimal level till 36 h. Po2 could grow in the range of 0–20% NaCl (w/v) and pH 7–9, optimally at 10% NaCl (w/v) and pH 8. The protease production was salt-dependent and optimum production required 15% NaCl (w/v) and pH 8. Among the organic nitrogen sources, optimum growth and protease production (260 U/ml) were supported by the combination of peptone and yeast extract. However, growth and protease production were highly suppressed by the inorganic nitrogen sources used; with the exception of potassium nitrate, which supported both growth and protease production to limited extent (24 U/ml). Strong inhibition of enzyme production was observed at above 1% glucose (w/v). Wheat flour served as both carbon and nitrogen source supporting growth and protease production.  相似文献

Transglutaminases are a class of transferases known to form isopeptide bond between glutamine and lysine residues in a protein molecule. Increasing demand for transglutaminase in food and other industries and its low productivity have compelled researchers to isolate and screen micro-organisms with potential to produce it. In the present investigation around 200 isolates were screened for extracellular secretion of microbial transglutaminase (MTGase). Isolate B4 showed enzyme activity of 1.71?±?0.2?U/mL followed by isolate C2 which showed 1.61?±?0.17?U/mL activity, comparable with the activity of industrially used microbial strains. Biochemical analysis along with 16S r-RNA sequencing revealed these isolates (B4 and C2) to be Bacillus nakamurai and a variant of Bacillus subtilis, respectively. Amongst the various production media screened, a medium containing starch and peptone was found best for MTGase production. Correlation between growth, enzyme production, and sugar utilization was also studied and maximum enzyme production was obtained after 48 to 60?hr. Highest MTGase titer (3.95?±?0.03?U/mL for B4 and 2.65?±?0.17?U/mL for C2) was obtained by optimization of parameters. The enzyme was characterized for temperature and pH optima, pH and thermal stability, and effect of metal ions, suggesting its potential use in future applications.  相似文献

In the present study, two cellulose-degrading bacteria (CDB-5 and CDB-12) were isolated from mangrove soils of Mahanadi river delta, based on halo zone formation in Congo red agar medium and evaluation for cellulase production in CMC broth medium. Based on morphological, biochemical and 16S rRNA gene sequencing, the two strains, CDB-5 and CDB-12, were identified as Brucella sp. and Bacillus licheniformis, respectively. The gene bank accession number of the strains CDB-5 and CDB-12 are KR632646 and KR632645, respectively. The strain Brucella sp. and B. licheniformis showed an enzyme activity of 96.37?U/ml and 98.25?U/ml, respectively, after 72?h of incubation period. Enzyme production was optimized under different growth conditions such as pH, temperature, agitation rate, carbon source, sodium chloride (NaCl), and nitrogen sources. Maximum cellulase production by both the strains was obtained in the same parameter condition such as pH (7.0), rpm (150), and NaCl (2%, w/v) which varies for other parameters. The strain, CDB-5, produced maximum cellulase at 35?°C temperature, maltose as a carbon source, and yeast extract as a nitrogen source where as the strain CDB-12 produces maximum cellulase at 45?°C temperature, carboxyl methyl cellulose (CMC) as carbon source and trypton as a nitrogen source. The bacterial crude enzyme was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by overnight dialysis. SDS-PAGE analysis of the partially purified cellulase enzyme exhibited band sizes of approximately 55 and 72?kDa.  相似文献

Locally isolated bacterium Pseudomonas sp. LM19, a metallo-keratinase producer was used to hydrolyze the highly rigid keratin recalcitrant in this study. The production of crude keratinase by Pseudomonas sp. LM19 is influenced by both physical and nutritional parameters. The highest keratinase activity of 127?U/ml (2.15-fold) was observed in feather meal medium supplemented with fructose and peptone at a C/N ratio of 40. The optimum pH and temperature for keratinase production were found to be pH 8 and 30?°C, using 1% (w/v) feather as substrate. The degradation rate of the feathers was increased 2.4-fold at optimized physical and nutritional conditions. Feather degradation by Pseudomonas sp. LM19 led to the production of free amino acids such as arginine, glycine, leucine, and serine. The information on the production of keratinase by Pseudomonas sp. LM19 obtained from this study warrants further research for possible commercial application.  相似文献

Abstract

In this study, three Bacillus sp.-producing amylase enzymes were isolated from soil samples and identified using 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Amylase production and total protein productions were spectrophotometrically measured. The following media were tested to increase enzyme production: LB medium and molasses. Three Bacillus sp. were identified as follows: Bacillus subtilis subtilis, Bacillus thuringiensis, and Bacillus cereus. Amylase production levels were in the range of 10?U/mL, whereas total protein production levels were at 15?mg/mL. Higher amylase activity was found in the Bacillus subtilis isolate. Ethylmethane sulfonate (EMS) and ultraviolet (UV) mutagenesis in combination were applied to compare amylase production. Amylase activity was increased to around 58% in the treatment with 0.03?mL of EMS and UV when compared to the control group. A pilot scale bioreactor with a total working volume of 10 liters was used to produce amylase by B. subtilis subtilis. In conclusion, B. subtilis subtilis can be used to produce amylase enzyme for various industrial purposes, and, for the first time, the amylase activities of B. subtilis can be enhanced with EMS and UV treatment.  相似文献

The present paper demonstrates application of biocatalysis to the synthesis of n-butyl palmitate, a cosmetic emollient ester in a solvent-free system (SFS). Fermase CALB?10000, a commercial Candida antarctica lipase B was used to accomplish the synthesis. In order to evaluate the effect of various process parameters on the synthesis, one factor at a time methodology (OFAT) and response surface methodology (RSM) complimented with central composite design (CCD) were employed. On the basis of the results obtained in one factor at one time studies, temperature, enzyme dose, and molar ratio were chosen as significant parameters and their range was selected for RSM study. The optimized factors suggested by RSM model were, temperature –60.12?°C, enzyme dose –5% w/w, and alcohol: acid ratio –2.25:1. Under these optimized factors, the experimental conversion observed was 91.25% which was in close agreement to the model predicted conversion of 92% and the enzymes were reusable up to four cycles. A separate study was carried out in order to study the effect of palmitic acid on n-butyl palmitate synthesis and to understand the kinetic profile of n-butyl palmitate synthesis reaction. Ordered bi-bi model showed a good experimental fit to the kinetic data.  相似文献

A halothermotolerant Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium was isolated from petroleum reservoirs in Iran and identified as Bacillus licheniformis sp. strain ACO1 by phenotypic characterization and 16S rRNA analysis. It showed a high capacity for bioemulsifier production and grew up to 60°C with NaCl at 180 g l−1. The optimum NaCl concentration, pH and temperature for bioemulsifier production were 4% (w/v), 8.0, and 45°C, respectively. Although ACO1 did not utilize hydrocarbons, it had a high emulsifying activity (E 24 = 65 ± 5%) on different hydrophobic substrates. Emulsification was optimal while growing on yeast extract as the sole carbon source and NaNO3 as the nitrogen source. The efficiency of the residual oil recovery increased by 22% after in situ growth of B. licheniformis ACO1 in a sand-pack model saturated with liquid paraffin.  相似文献
