The stability and activity of the low redox potential Melanocarpus albomyces laccase (MaL) in various aqueous organic (acetone, ethanol, propylene glycol, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether) solvent systems was studied spectrophotometrically using 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (2,6-DMP) as substrate. In addition, reactivity of the enzyme with two lignans; matairesinol (MR) and 7-hydroxymatairesinol (HMR), was examined by oxygen consumption measurements in the most potential aqueous organic solvent systems. Polymerization of the lignans by MaL was verified by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC). Polymerization of the higher molecular weight lignin model compound, dehydrogenation polymers (DHPs), was studied by SEC. The solubilities of industrial softwood and hardwood kraft lignins were evaluated as parameters for investigation of enzymatic modification in aqueous organic solvent systems. The functioning of MaL in different aqueous organic media was excellent. Propylene glycol and diethylene glycol monomethyl ether were better solvents than ethanol or acetone in enzymatic oxidations. Even though they were the best solvents for enzyme oxidation, ethanol and propylene glycol were selected for further tests because of their different physicochemical properties. The results obtained in this study for the use of laccase-catalysed reactions in organic solvents to improve the efficiency of lignin oxidation may be exploited in several applications and areas in which the solubility of the reactants or products is a limiting factor. 相似文献

There are many published studies presenting ethanol and acetone as PHAs‐poor solvents, where these two solvents are shown to dissolve <2% (w/v) of PHAs at low temperatures. In this study, the suitability of ethanol and acetone for the recovery of PHB at different temperatures (from room temperature to near boiling point) in Cupriavidus necator was investigated. Experiments were performed using response surface methodology to examine the effects of different temperatures and heating incubation times on recovery percentage using the two solvents. The highest recovery percentage (92.3%) and product purity (up to 99%) were obtained with ethanol‐assisted extraction at 76°C for 32 min of incubation time. Under these conditions the extracted PHB exhibited a molecular mass of 1.2 × 106. The present strategy showed that at temperatures near its boiling point, ethanol, as a nonhalogenated solvent, represents a good alternative to halogenated solvents, like chloroform, when PHB recovery is concerned. DSC analysis showed good thermal properties for ethanol‐ and acetone‐extracted biopolymers. GC and 1H NMR analysis confirmed the extracted biopolymer to be polyhydroxybutyrate of good purity. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 32:1480–1486, 2016 相似文献

Permeabilization treatments using organic solvents or physical methods were applied to Kluyveromyces bulgaricus and compared by measuring the β-galactosidase activity of whole cells. The minimum solvent concentrations to be used for obtaining a good permeabilization were: 10% n-butanol; 20% propanol; 30% isopropanol, tert-butanol; 40% ethanol, acetone and 70% dimethylsulphoxide. Toluene/ethanol (1 : 4) at 10% was less effective. The addition of the surfactant Brij 35 to lower alkanol concentrations did not bring about a significant permeabilization but the treatment of cells with Brij 35 with a small amount of toluene in ethanol (4 : 96) resulted in a high enzymatic activity. Yeast pellet, but not yeast suspension, submitted to five cycles of freezing and thawing displayed an enzymatic activity similar to those obtained by organic solvents. 相似文献

The production of carotenoids from Blakeslea trispora cells in a synthetic medium has been reported, with the main products being beta-carotene, lycopene, and gamma-carotene. The effect of biomass pretreatment and solvent extraction on their selective recovery is reported here. Eight solvents of class II and III of the International Conference of Harmonization: ethanol, methanol, acetone, 2-propanol, pentane, hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethyl ether, and HPLC analysis were used for the evaluation of their selectivities towards the three main carotenoids with regard to different biomass pre-treatment. The average C(max) values (maximum concentration of caronoids in a specific solvent) were estimated to 16 mg/L with the five out of eight solvents investigated, whereas methanol, pentane, and hexane gave lower values of 10, 11, and 9 mg/L, respectively. The highest carotenoid yield was obtained in the case of wet biomass, where 44-56% is recovered with one solvent and three extractions and the rest is recovered only after subsequent treatment with acetone; thus, four extractions of 2.5 h are needed. Two extractions of 54 min are enough to recover carotenoids from dehydrated biomass, with the disadvantage of a high degree of degradation. Our results showed that, for maximum carotenoid recovery, ethyl ether, 2-propanol, and ethanol could be successfully used with biomass without prior treatment, whereas fractions enriched in beta-carotene or lycopene can be obtained by extraction with the proper solvent, thus avoiding degradation due to time-consuming processes. 相似文献

Synergistes sp. DQ560074 produced a protease in submerged fermentation (SmF) at 400–420 U/mL and in solid‐state fermentation (SSF) at 745–755 U/g. The protease, which belongs to the aspartic protease class, was active over a wide range of pH (5–7) and at high temperatures (25–45°C). The protease is stable and active in various polar protic solvents (50% v/v) like ethanol, isopropanol, n–butanol, in polar aprotic solvents (50% v/v) like acetonitrile, and in non‐polar solvents (50% v/v) such as ethylacetate and toluene, but not in hydrophilic organic solvents (methyl alcohol and acetone). As far as we know, this is the first contribution to the production of a mesophilic protease with solvent stability in SSF using a proteinaceous solid waste. 相似文献

A study on the feasibility of using improved computer-controlled HPLC and GC systems was carried out to shorten the time needed
for measuring levels of the substrates (glucose, maltose, and glycerol) and products (acetone, butanol ethanol, acetic acid,
and butyric acid) produced byClostridium saccharobutylicum DSM 13864 during direct fermentation of sago starch to solvent. The use of HPLC system with a single injection to analyse
the composition of culture broth (substrates and products) during solvent fermentation was achieved by raising the column
temperature to 80°C. Although good separation of the components in the mixture was achieved, a slight overlap was observed
in the peaks for butyric acid and acetone. The shape of the peak obtained and the analysis time of 26.66 min were satisfactory
at a fixed flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. An improved GC system was developed, that was able to measure the products of solvent
fermentation (acetone, butanol, ethanol, acetic acid, and butyric acid) within 19.28 min. Excellent resolution for each peak
was achieved by adjusting the oven temperature to 65°C. 相似文献

A new immobilized cell system providing protection against toxic solvents was investigated so that normal fermentations could be carried out in a medium containing toxic solvents. The system consists of immobilized growing cells in Ca-alginate gel beads to which vegetable oils, which are inexpensive absorbents of solvents, had been added. The ethanol fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 26603 was used as a model fermentation to study the protection afforded by the system against solvent toxicities. The fermentation was inhibited by solvents such as 2-octanol, benzene, toluene, and phenol. Ethanol production of one batch was not finished even after 35 h using immobilized growing yeast cells in conventional Ca-alginate gel beads in an ethanol production medium (5% glucose) containing 0.1% 2-octanol, which is used as a solvent for liquid-liquid extraction and is one of the most toxic solvents in our experiments. With the new immobilized growing cell system using vegetable oils, however, four repeated batch fermentations were completed in 35 h. Castor oil provided even more protection than soy bean, olive, and tung oils, and it was possible to complete six repeated batches in 35 h. The immobilized cell system with vegetable oils also provided protection against other toxic solvents such as benzene and toluene. A possible mechanism for the protective function of the new immobilized cell system is discussed. 相似文献

This work demonstrates a significant advance in bioprocessing for a high‐melting lipid polymer. A novel and environmental friendly solvent mixture, acetone/ethanol/propylene carbonate (A/E/P, 1:1:1 v/v/v) was identified for extracting poly‐hydroxybutyrate (PHB), a high‐value biopolymer, from Cupriavidus necator. A set of solubility curves of PHB in various solvents was established. PHB recovery of 85% and purity of 92% were obtained from defatted dry biomass (DDB) using A/E/P. This solvent mixture is compatible with water, and from non‐defatted wet biomass, PHB recovery of 83% and purity of 90% were achieved. Water and hexane were evaluated as anti‐solvents to assist PHB precipitation, and hexane improved recovery of PHB from biomass to 92% and the purity to 93%. A scale‐up extraction and separation reactor was designed, built and successfully tested. Properties of PHB recovered were not significantly affected by the extraction solvent and conditions, as shown by average molecular weight (1.4 × 106) and melting point (175.2°C) not being different from PHB extracted using chloroform. Therefore, this biorenewable solvent system was effective and versatile for extracting PHB biopolymers. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 32:678–685, 2016 相似文献

We studied a model transesterification reaction catalyzed by subtilisin Carlsberg suspended in toluene, n-hexane, diisopropyl ether, and mixtures of these solvents. To account for solvent effects due to differences in water partitioning between the enzyme and the bulk solvents, we measured water sorption isotherms for the enzyme in each solvent. We measured catalytic activity as a function of enzyme hydration and obtained bell-shaped curves with maxima at the same enzyme hydration in all the solvents. However, the activity maxima were different in all the media, being the lowest in toluene. Differences in the partitioning of substrates and product between the bulk solvent phase and the enzyme active site were accounted for but could not explain the lower catalytic activity observed in toluene. The fact that toluene is very similar to one of the substrates suggested the possibility of competitive inhibition by this solvent. We derived a model allowing for differences in solvation of the substrates, by using thermodynamic activities instead of concentrations, as well as for competitive inhibition by toluene. The model fit the experimental data well, confirming that toluene had a direct adverse effect on the catalytic activity of the enzyme. (c) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Rice stems were subjected to a subcritical fluid treatment at 230 °C, using ethanol or acetone at a dilution of 0–100% in water. The obtained extracts were determined for their yield, carbohydrate content, phenolic content, DPPH radical scavenging ability, and color. The highest yield and carbohydrate content were achieved with the subcritical 20% (v/v) organic solvent, while the highest phenolic content was obtained with subcritical 80% (v/v) acetone. The highest radical scavenging ability was achieved with subcritical 60% (v/v) ethanol and 80% (v/v) acetone. The lightness of the extracts obtained with subcritical ethanol and acetone was negatively correlation with their radical scavenging ability (R=?0.85). The relationship between the lightness and phenolic content of the extracts was not significant, suggesting that other substances in the extract could also possess radical scavenging ability. 相似文献

Aims: To isolate and characterize new marine bacteria capable of tolerating high concentrations of organic solvents, and to understand the toxic effects of these chemicals on marine bacteria. Methods and Results: Five marine bacteria able to tolerate 0·1% (v/v) toluene were isolated and characterized on the basis of their growth and survival rates in the presence of different organic solvents. The toluene-tolerant marine bacteria identified in this study could not grow in the presence of 0·1% (v/v) of several organic solvents with a log Pow higher than that of the toluene (which in theory should be less toxic than toluene). The mechanisms underlying solvent tolerance were explored. Conclusions: Isolates of four different genera were identified as toluene-tolerant. Toxicity of a second phase of an organic solvent toward these isolates could not be predicted on the basis of the solvents’ log Pow. Significance and Impact of the Study: To improve the biodegradation rate of some water-insoluble compounds, double-phase bioreactors can be used. This type of bioreactor will require strains able to grow in a salt-containing environment and able to tolerate a second phase of an organic solvent. 相似文献

Toluene is an organic solvent that is toxic to humans. Caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE) and thymoquinone (TQ) exhibit antioxidant and antitoxic effects. We investigated the protective effects of CAPE and TQ on toluene induced hepatotoxicity. Wistar albino rats were divided into seven groups of eight. The animals were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 0.1 ml/10 g/day corn oil (control I), 0.1 ml/10 g/day corn oil + 2 ml/kg/day 10% ethanol (control II), 20 mg/kg/day TQ dissolved in 0.1 ml/10 g corn oil (TQ), 10 µmol/kg/day CAPE dissolved in 10% ethanol (CAPE), 500 mg/kg/day toluene (T), toluene and TQ together (T + TQ), or toluene and CAPE together (T + CAPE). All rats were sacrificed on day 15. Liver samples were obtained for histological analysis. Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels were measured to evaluate liver function. Liver sections from the control I and TQ groups exhibited normal histology. Sections from the T group exhibited sinusoid dilation, hemorrhage, vacuolization and necrosis. TQ and CAPE protected against toluene induced histopathological changes. AST and ALT levels were increased significantly in T group compared to both control groups. CAPE decreased significantly the toluene induced increase in AST and ALT levels, while TQ did not. CAPE and TQ exhibited some antitoxic and hepato-protective effects on toluene induced liver damage. 相似文献

An efficient method using microwave energy was developed to extract homoharringtonine (HHT), an alkaloid component effective
in the treatment of leukemia, from Cephalotaxus koreana. The effects of major process parameters on extraction efficiency were also investigated. Using a fixed biomass-to-methanol
ratio of 1:8 (w/v), an extraction temperature of 30°C, an extraction time of 20 min, and a stirrer velocity of 250 rpm, a
25% higher yield of HHT was achieved using microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) than using conventional solvent extraction.
It was possible to recover more than 95% of the HHT by extracting twice using MAE. In addition, the HHT yield increased as
the extraction temperature increased, but the content of plant-derived tar and waxy compounds increased as well. Removal of
these impurities and of the pigments from extracts was most effectively accomplished at a mixing ratio of biomass-to-sylopute
of 1:1.5 (w/w). The effects of using different organic solvents (acetone, chloroform, ethanol, or methanol) for MAE were also
assessed; the highest extraction efficiency was obtained using methanol. When the agitation speed was altered, most of the
HHT (> 99%) was recovered at 250 rpm. A mixing ratio of biomass-to-methanol of 1:6 (w/v) at an extraction temperature of 40°C
and an extraction time of 10 min proved to be the most effective for reducing processing time and organic solvent usage while
enabling nearly all of the HHT (> 99%) to be recovered. 相似文献

The technical possibilities of the microbial production of acetone, butanol and ethanol (ABE) from potato waste using in-line solvent recovery, are evaluated. Clostridium acetobutylicum DSM 1731 produces up to 20 g·l–1 of solvents when grown on a medium containing 14% (w/v) potato powder. Using a polypropylene perstraction system and a oleyl alcohol/decane mixture as the extractant, the product yield (based on total solvents and potato dry weight) increased from 0.13 g·g–1 to 0.23 g·g–1. The recovery system worked well for 50 h, after which membrane fouling frustrated proper operation. In the second system a microfiltration step was incorporated whereas the solvents were extracted through a hydrophilic membrane using fatty acid methyl esters from sunflower oil as an extractant. This process configuration resulted in a comparable increase of ABE production.

The effects of organic solvents on the stabilities of bovine pancreas trypsin, chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidase A and porcine pancreas lipase were studied. Water-miscible solvents (ethanol, acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane and dimethyl sulfoxide) and water-immiscible solvents (ethyl acetate and toluene) were used in 100 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) or 100 mM Tris/HCl buffer (pH 7.0) in concentrations of 20–80% (v/v). All hydrolytic enzymes studied were inactivated by mixtures containing dimethyl sulfoxide at higher concentrations. Trypsin and carboxypeptidase A resisted solvent mixtures containing acetonitrile, 1,4-dioxane and ethanol. They preserved more than 80% of their starting activities during 20-min incubations. The activities of lipase and chymotrypsin decreased with increasing concentration of water-miscible polar organic solvents, but at higher concentrations (80%) 70–90% of the activity remained. In mixtures with water-immiscible solvents, the decrease in activity of carboxypeptidase A was pronounced. Trypsin and chymotrypsin underwent practically no loss in activity in the presence of toluene or ethyl acetate. In respect of stability, the polar solvent proved to be more favorable for lipase. These results suggest that the conformational stabilities of hydrolytic enzymes are highly dependent on the solvent-protein interactions and the enzyme structure. 相似文献

The superoxide adduct of 5,5-dimethyl-l-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) has been detected by EPR spectroscopy in aprotic solvents using KO2 solubilized in 18-crown-6-ether as a source of superoxide. The EPR hyperfine splitting constants of the DMPO-superoxide adduct were as follows: benzene/toluene (aN = 12.65 G; aββ = 10.4G; aγ = 1.3G); heptane (aN = 12.49G; aββ = 10.29G; aγH = 1.2g); and acetone (aN = 12.6G; aββ = 10.17 G; aγ = 1.3 G). The EPR parameters for benzene, toluene and heptane differ significantly from previously reported values. A plot of the hyperfine splitting constants for the DMPO superoxide adduct as a function of solvent polarity (Kosower Z value) indicates that while aN and aββ both decrease by about 1 G on going from water to ethanol, further decreases in polarity do not greatly affect these EPR parameters. 相似文献

Effects of Polar Organic Solvents on the Biocatalysis of Chlorophyllase in a Biphasic Organic System
《Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry》2013,77(11):1947-1952
The effects of polarity of various organic solvents, including acetone, ethanol, and propanol, used in a biphasic organic system, on the hydrolytic activity of a partially purified chlorophyllase from Phaeodactylum tricornutum were investigated. The different concentrations of each polar organic solvent, from 0 to 40%, were added to a mixture (45:55, v/v) of hexane and a buffer solution of Tris–HCl (20 mm, pH 7.5). The most appropriate concentrations of acetone, ethanol, and propanol for the hydrolytic activity of chlorophyllase were 12.5, 5.0, and 2.5%, respectively. The results indicated that the optimum reaction time for the chlorophyllase activity in the biphasic system decreased from 7.0 h to 3.0, 5.0, and 5.0 h, respectively, upon the addition of an appropriate amount of acetone, ethanol, or propanol. The Vmax and Km as well as the inhibitory effect of phytol on the chlorophyllase activity in the biphasic organic system containing a polar organic solvent were also investigated. 相似文献
