The processes of the cultivation of N. meningitidis, serogroups A, B and C, in a liquid synthetic culture medium have been studied. Strictly group-specific biomass has been obtained. The maximum productivity at all stages of the batch cultivation of N. meningitidis strains 125 and 133 in this medium does not differ from that at similar stages of cultivation in modified Cohen-Wheller semisynthetic medium. In the serotype antigen preparations obtained from N. meningitidis strain 125 grown in the above-mentioned liquid synthetic culture medium basic polypeptides with a molecular weight of 33000, 36000 and 41000 D have been detected. Their presence in N. meningitidis cells is linked with the growth phase of the population.  相似文献

A new method for controlling the processes of N. meningitidis cultivation by the content of oxygen dissolved in the medium with the use of a computer, including the software, technical and methodological provision of the computer-operated control system, has been developed. The processes of the cultivation of N. meningitidis, groups A and B, under fully controlled conditions have been realized. The computer-operated control of the content of oxygen in the medium, the most important parameter of the process, has been shown to be essentially more effective than manual control. Information, accumulated in the course of the experiment, may be used in future for correction of mathematical models and optimization of the process. This will by necessary for obtaining biomass with predetermined properties in the development of new diagnostic and vaccine preparations.  相似文献

The growth of the culture and biosynthesis of lysin were studied in Brevibacterium flavum 22 LD cultivated in a chemostat. During cultivation the flow rate of the medium and the partial pressure of oxygen dissolved in the medium were varied. The maximum yield of lysine, calculated in respect to the sucrose consumed, (Yp = g lysine . HCl/g sucrose) was registered when cyanide-resistant oxygen consumption was the least. A change of the cultivation conditions provoked a decrease of Yp value and a simultaneous increase in cyanide-resistant respiration. Possible reasons of the phenomena observed are discussed.  相似文献

Sonicated lysates of 5 N. meningitidis strains, serogroup B, obtained from two solid serum-free culture media (a medium with casamino acids and a medium with Hottinger's hydrolysate) were studied with the aim of comparing the capacity of different group B meningococcal strains for the accumulation of group-specific polysaccharide. In the lysates obtained after 7-hour growth no sialic acid was found. After 20-hour cultivation, group-specific polysaccharide was detected in the lysates obtained from 4 out of 5 strains. All sonicated lysates obtained in these experiments were serologically active. The lysates obtained from the medium containing casamino acid had a higher content of group-specific polysaccharide. N. meningitidis strain 125, obtained at the Mechnikov Central Research Institute for Vaccines and Sera (Moscow) by selection, showed the highest content of capsular polysaccharide in microbial cells and the stable yield of biomass.  相似文献

The protein spectra of Neisseria meningitidis, strain A 208, in the process of its cultivation on solid culture medium based on peptone agar under the conditions of the surplus or deficiency of ions of trivalent iron in the medium. The creation of iron deficiency by the introduction of two iron-binding admixtures, desferol and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), was found to lead to the production of two additional proteins with molecular weights of 72 kD and 36-37 kD by meningococcal cells. Of these two admixtures, DTPA more readily stimulated the production of low-molecular protein with a molecular weight of 36-37 kD. This protein was found to be noticeably labile, while protein with a molecular weight of 72-73 kD showed no such lability. As the result of the cultivation of meningococci in iron-deficient medium, the content of protein in microbial residue was 2- to 3-fold greater than that obtained by the cultivation of meningococci in culture medium with the surplus of iron in the form of ferric nitrate.  相似文献

It was shown that the antigen determining the group specificity of meningococcus belonging to serological group A was of mixed polysaccharide-protein nature. Carbohydrate component is responsible for the interaction with the group-specific antibodies in this antigen. Glycoprotein can be isolated both from the cells and from the culture fluid where it passes during the N. meningitidis cultivation in fluid nutrient medium. The described antigen possesses no properties of endotoxin.  相似文献

The effect of oxygen supply on the cultivation of the genetically modified tobacco cells and the formation of a foreign protein, beta-glucuronidase (GUS), was investigated in 250-mL Erlenmeyer flasks, a 5-L stirred tank fermenter, and a 7-L air-lift fermenter. The oxygen supply was varied by using different volumes of medium in the case of the 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask culture or by the different aeration rate in the case of the two types of fermenters tested. Higher oxygen supply stimulated cell growth and increased oxygen consumption rate, the level of phenolics, and GUS productions.  相似文献

Pleurotus ostreatus No. 42 produced the ligninolytic enzymes, manganese peroxidase (MnP) and laccase, in agitation culture in glucose/peptone/wheat-bran medium. Formation of mycelial pellets 1-2 mm in diameter was essential for the production of MnP; and the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the culture medium greatly influenced the production of MnP, a concentration over 5 ppm being necessary for MnP production. The maximal activity of MnP was obtained on days 7-9 of culture, after the consumption of nutrient glucose. Introduction of oxygen from the start of the cultivation caused large pellet formation, which resulted in a low MnP activity level. P. ostreatus No. 42 produced two MnP isozymes in agitation culture. The major isozyme, F-2, was 36.4 kDa and had a pI of 3.95. The MnP characteristics, Km values, dependence on Mn2+ and optimum pH showed the similarity between this isozyme and MnP 3, which was produced under different culture conditions. Analysis of the N-terminal amino acid sequence indicated the close similarity of F-2 to MnP 3.  相似文献

A new approach using microtiter plate cultivation with on-line measurement of dissolved oxygen (DO) was applied for medium optimization of mammalian cell culture. Applying dynamic liquid phase balance, oxygen uptake rates were calculated from the DO level and used as an indicator for culture viability. The developed method was successfully applied to optimization of the concentration of glucose, glutamine and inorganic salts for cultivation of a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell line. Using 23 full factorial central composite design, the optimum medium composition could be identified in one single run. The concentration of inorganic salts had a significant influence on cultivation. The developed method exhibits high potential to improve procedures of medium optimization for animal cell cultivation by allowing the investigation of large sets of potentially important variables in short time and with reduced effort.  相似文献

The mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin (CL) has been implicated with mitochondrial morphology, function, and cell proliferation. Changes in CL are often paralleled by changes in the lipid environment of mitochondria that may contribute to mitochondrial function and proliferation. This study aimed to separate the effects of CL content and CL composition from cellular free fatty acid distribution on bioenergetics and proliferation in C6 glioma cells. To this end, cardiolipin synthase and the CL remodelling enzyme, tafazzin, were knocked-down by siRNA in C6 cells. After 72?h of cultivation, we analysed CL composition by means of LC/MS/MS, distribution of cellular fatty acids by means of gas chromatography, and determined oxygen consumption and proliferation. Knock-down of cardiolipin synthase affected the cellular CL content in the presence of linoleic acid (LA) in the culture medium. Knock-down of tafazzin had no consequence with respect to the pattern of cellular fatty acids but caused a decrease in cell proliferation. It significantly changed the distribution of molecular CL species, increased CL content, decreased oxygen consumption, and decreased cell proliferation when cultured in the presence of linoleic acid (LA). The addition of linoleic acid to the culture medium caused significant changes in the pattern of cellular fatty acids and the composition of molecular CL species. These data suggest that tafazzin is required for efficient bioenergetics and for proliferation of glioma cells. Supplementation of fatty acids can be a powerful tool to direct specific changes in these parameters.  相似文献

Cartilage tissue engineering typically involves the culture of isolated chondrocytes within a scaffold material. The oxygen tension within the engineered tissue is known to be an essential parameter for implant success. This will be sensitive to the oxygen consumption behavior of the embedded chondrocytes, which remains to be characterized. We report that the oxygen consumption of bovine articular chondrocytes is sensitive to glucose deprivation below 2.7 mM, increasing from a basal level of 9.6x10(-16) to <18.4x10(-16) mol/cell.h in 1.3 mM glucose. Further studies examined the influence of selecting high (18.4 mM) or low (5.1 mM) glucose medium on the oxygen tension in 2 mm thick cellular agarose constructs. A relative upregulation of oxygen consumption was observed in constructs cultured in low glucose medium. This resulted in the near-anoxic oxygen concentration of 5 microM oxygen in constructs seeded with 40x10(6) cells/ml, compared to 57 microM in the corresponding high glucose culture. The upregulation of oxygen consumption generally corresponded to the inhibition of glycolysis, which is consistent with the Crabtree phenomenon. Medium osmolarity (316-600 mOsm) had minimal effects on chondrocyte oxygen consumption rate. In conclusion, glucose availability is a critical parameter that regulates the oxygen tension within tissue engineered constructs.  相似文献

Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient for human and animal organisms. Organic selenium complexes and selenium-containing amino acids are considered the most bioavailable.Under appropriate conditions yeasts are capable of accumulating large amounts of trace elements, such as selenium, and incorporating them into organic compounds. It has been found that introduction of water-soluble selenium salt as a component of the culture medium for yeasts produced by conventional batch processing results in a substantial amount of selenium being absorbed by the yeast.Using a culture medium supplemented with 30 μg/mL sodium-selenite added during the exponential growth phase results in selenium-accumulation in the range of 1200–1400 μg/g dried baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) measured by ICP-AES method. In our previous studies it was shown that higher amounts of sodium-selenite in the culture medium have a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of this yeast. As a consequence of variations in cultivation conditions we obtained selenium yeast with different inorganic selenium content. The most important parameters influencing incorporated forms of selenium are pH value and dissolved oxygen level in the culture medium, and depending on these the selenium consumption rate of the yeast. A 0.40–0.50 mg/g h-1 specific selenium consumption rate was found to be appropriate to obtain selenium-enriched bakers' yeast of a high quality. Under suitable conditions the undesirable inorganic selenium content of the yeast could be suppressed to as low as 5–6% at the expense, however, of approximately a 20% decrease in the final biomass.  相似文献

Cell and tissue cultures derived from macrophytic marine red algae are potential platforms for unique secondary metabolites. This work presents the first successful bioreactor cultivation study of an in vitro tissue culture derived from a macrophytic marine red alga. Specifically, the photosynthetic growth characteristics of a novel microplantlet suspension culture established from the macrophytic marine red alga Agardhiella subulata were studied. A bubble-column bioreactor with external illumination (43 microE m(-2) s(-1), 10:14 LD photoperiod), liquid medium perfusion, and 3800 ppm CO(2) in the aeration gas provided sufficient light and nutrient delivery for sustained growth of the microplantlet suspension at 24 degrees C and pH 8. Microplantlets, which consisted of shoot tissues of 3-5 mm length branching out from a common center, were not friable in a bubble-aerated suspension of about 1100 plantlets per liter. Since the microplantlet tissues were not friable, only batch and fed-batch cultivation modes were considered. Batch cultivation was phosphate-limited in ASP12 artificial seawater medium. However, cultivation at a medium perfusion rate of 20% per day avoided phosphate limitation and extended the growth phase to provide plantlet mass densities exceeding 14 g FW L(-1) (3.7 g DW L(-1)) after 50 days of cultivation if the suspension was not sampled. The specific oxygen evolution rate vs cultivation time profile possessed a significant pulse within the 14 days following inoculation and then leveled off at longer times. In recognition of this nonexponential growth pattern, a new photobioreactor growth model was developed that used the oxygen evolution rate vs time profile to predict the biomass growth curve in perfusion culture. Model predictions agreed reasonably with the measured growth curves.  相似文献

The comparative study of three Neisseria meningitidis strains (15, 125, 2394) was carried out by the method of electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate and by the method of immunoblotting. The intensive expression of 8 iron-regulated proteins (IRP) was shown to occur in iron-deficient culture medium. The major IRP with a molecular weight of 35 kD was expressed by all above-mentioned N. meningitidis strains under the conditions of iron deficiency and cross-reacted with 10 mouse and rabbit antisera to N. meningitidis of different groups, i.e. it was common to all Neisseria species. The antigenic activity of various IRP essentially differed with respect to antisera of animals and sera of patients with meningococcal infection.  相似文献

Previously, Su et al. [Biotechnol Bioeng 42: 884–890 (1993)] reported improved production of rosmarinic acid by Anchusa officinalis in shake-flask cultures using a cultivation strategy that involved intermittent medium exchange. Implementation of this cultivation strategy in 2.5-1 stirred-tank bioreactor cultures is investigated in the present study. Intermittent cell/medium separation in the bioreactor was accomplished by means of automated in situ culture filtration. In the bioreactor culture, rosmarinic acid production was found very sensitive to agitation and aeration conditions as well as dissolved oxygen concentration. A maximum cell density of 35 g dry weight/l and a rosmarinic acid concentration of 3.7 g/l were obtained by maintaining the dissolved oxygen concentration above 30% air saturation, gradually raising the impeller tip speed from 34 cm/s to 72 cm/s, and keeping the aeration rate at 0.44 vvm while increasing the O2: air ratio in the gas feed stream to 4:1. This result is comparable with the data obtained from shake-flask cultures using the same culture strategy.  相似文献

A hybridoma cell line was cultivated in fed-batch cultures using a low-protein, serum-free medium. On-line oxygen uptake rate (OUR) measurement was used to adjust the nutrient feeding rate based on glucose consumption, which was estimated on-line using the stoichiometric relations between glucose and oxygen consumption. Through on-line control of the nutrient feeding rate, not only sufficients were supplied for cell growth and antibody production, but also the concentrations of glucose and other important nutrients such as amino acids were maintained at low levels during the cell growth phase. During the cultivation, cell metabolism changed from high lactate production and low oxygen consumption to low lactate production and high oxygen consumption. As a result the accumulation of lactate was reduced and the growth phase was extended. In comparison with the batch cultures, in which cells reached a concentration of approximately 2 x 10(6) cells/mL, a very high concentration of 1.36 x 10(7) cells/mL with a high cell viability (>90%) was achieved in the fed-batch culture. By considering the consumption of glucose and amino acids, as well as the production of cell mass, metabolites, and antibodies, a well-closed material balance was established. Our results demonstrate the value of coupling on-line OUR measurement and the stoichiometric realations for dynamic nutrient feeding in high cell concentration fed batch cultures.

The given paper represents formulae for calculation of oxygen consumption and of carbon dioxide formation in a microbial culture obtained from corrected measuring data of gas balance measurements. Basic relations between these measuring data the respiration quotient RQ were derived. The influence of measuring error to the accuracy of determination of oxygen consumption and of carbon dioxide formation at the analysis of gas concentrations and of air flow is discussed. It is shown that the determination of carbon dioxide formation rate is possible in many cultivation regimes with better accuracy than the determination of oxygen uptake rate.  相似文献

The self-referencing electrode technique was employed to noninvasively measure gradients of dissolved oxygen in the medium immediately surrounding developing mouse embryos and, thereby, characterized changes in oxygen consumption and utilization during development. A gradient of depleted oxygen surrounded each embryo and could be detected >50 microm from the embryo. Blastocysts depleted the surrounding medium of 0.6+/-0.1 microM of oxygen, whereas early cleavage stage embryos depleted the medium of only 0.3+/-0.1 microM of oxygen, suggesting a twofold increase in oxygen consumption at the blastocyst stage. Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) accounted for 60-70% of the oxygen consumed by blastocysts, while it accounted for only 30% of the total oxygen consumed by cleavage-stage embryos. The amount of oxygen consumed by non-OXPHOS mechanisms remained relatively constant throughout preimplantation development. By contrast, the amount of oxygen consumed by OXPHOS in blastocysts is greater than that consumed by OXPHOS in cleavage-stage embryos. The amount of oxygen consumed by one-cell embryos was modulated by the absence of pyruvate from the culture medium. Treatment of one-cell embryos and blastocysts with diamide, an agent known to induce cell death in embryos, resulted in a decline in oxygen consumption, such that the medium surrounding dying embryos was not as depleted of oxygen as that surrounding untreated control embryos. Together these results validate the self-referencing electrode technique for analyzing oxygen consumption and utilization by preimplantation embryos and demonstrate that changes in oxygen consumption accompany important physiological events, such as development, response to medium metabolites, or cell death.  相似文献

Biomass growth, consumption of carbon and energy source, specific rates of formation of metabolic byproducts, biomass yield referred to the C-source and to oxygen, respiration rate and the value of RQ were studied in Klebsiella aerogenes CCM 2318 (on a synthetic glucose medium) at different specific growth rates. Maintenance coefficients and the total energy balance of the cultivation process were evaluated for a multistage tower fermentor with a defined interstage mixing. The results pointed to changes in both glucose metabolism and the physiological state of the population, brought about by changes in specific growth rate. As compared with a chemostat, the culture was found to exhibit a different physiological character is stages 1 and 4 despite a considerable interstage mixing.  相似文献
