Optimization of galacto-oligosaccharide production by Bifidobacterium infantis RW-8120 using response surface methodology

Oligosaccharide (OS) production, cell concentration (2×10⁹ colony-forming unit/ml), lactose concentration (25% wt/vol), reaction time (6 h), and temperature (50°C) were chosen as the central condition of the central composite design (CCD) for optimizing the production process using Bifidobacterium infantis RW-8120 in skim milk. Statistical analysis (P<0.01) revealed that the most relevant variable concerning OS production and yield was the lactose concentration. The coefficient of determination (R ²) is good for the second-order OS production model (0.92) and fairly good for the second-order nonlinear OS yield model (0.816). An increase of lactose concentration and temperature resulted in a higher OS production. The optimal values for OS production appear to be near the area associated with the central points of the modeling design except for the lactose concentration, which was 40% (wt/vol) of the final volume.

Utilisation of response surface methodology to optimise the culture medium for Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis

Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) is a sporulating Gram-positive bacterium that produces protein crystals with insecticide activity against Diptera. The aim of the present work was to optimise the culture medium for this bacterium, based on mathematical and statistical concepts (factorial designs and response surface methodology). The variables studied were carbon and nitrogen source concentrations. The main response analysed was toxicity, evaluated by means of bioassay with Aedes aegypti. The nutrient sources were first selected and then optimised. Ground Bombyx mori pupae, ammonium sulphate and glucose were the most suitable sources of organic nitrogen, inorganic nitrogen and organic carbon, respectively. The toxicity of optimised medium (LC₅₀ = 0.703 ppm, v/v) was higher than that the medium used as reference (LC₅₀ = 3.01 ppm, v/v), which is commonly used in the laboratory culture of Bti. Besides, the optimised medium showed a cost 7.36 times less than that of an alternative medium, based on soybean flour and sugarcane molasses. Factorial design and response surface methodology were effective methods for culture medium optimisation. The results will contribute to the development of local production and utilisation of agroindustrial waste locally.

Use of response surface methodology to optimize culture medium for production of lovastatin by Monascus ruber

Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to study the effect of culture medium on the production of lovastatin in mixed solid-liquid state (or submerged) cultures by Monascus ruber. The maximal lovastatin yield (131 mg/L, average of three repeats) appeared at the region where the respective concentrations of rice powder, peptone, glycerin, and glucose were around 34.4 g/L, 10.8 g/L, 26.4 ml/L, and 129.2 g/L, respectively. The optimized medium resulted in a significant increase of lovastatin yield, as compared with that obtained by the fermentation of many other M. ruber species.     

Investigation of biomass concentration,lipid production,and cellulose content in Chlorella vulgaris cultures using response surface methodology

The microalgae Chlorella vulgaris produce lipids that after extraction from cells can be converted into biodiesel. However, these lipids cannot be efficiently extracted from cells due to the presence of the microalgae cell wall, which acts as a barrier for lipid removal when traditional extraction methods are employed. Therefore, a microalgae system with high lipid productivity and thinner cell walls could be more suitable for lipid production from microalgae. This study addresses the effect of culture conditions, specifically carbon dioxide and sodium nitrate concentrations, on biomass concentration and the ratio of lipid productivity/cellulose content. Optimization of culture conditions was done by response surface methodology. The empirical model for biomass concentration (R² = 96.0%) led to a predicted maximum of 1123.2 mg dw L^?1 when carbon dioxide and sodium nitrate concentrations were 2.33% (v/v) and 5.77 mM, respectively. For lipid productivity/cellulose content ratio (R² = 95.2%) the maximum predicted value was 0.46 (mg lipid L^?1 day^?1)(mg cellulose mg biomass^?1)^?1 when carbon dioxide concentration was 4.02% (v/v) and sodium nitrate concentration was 3.21 mM. A common optimum point for both variables (biomass concentration and lipid productivity/cellulose content ratio) was also found, predicting a biomass concentration of 1119.7 mg dw L^?1 and lipid productivity/cellulose content ratio of 0.44 (mg lipid L^?1 day^?1)(mg cellulose mg biomass^?1)^?1 for culture conditions of 3.77% (v/v) carbon dioxide and 4.01 mM sodium nitrate. The models were experimentally validated and results supported their accuracy. This study shows that it is possible to improve lipid productivity/cellulose content by manipulation of culture conditions, which may be applicable to any scale of bioreactors. Biotechnol.

Response surface methodology for optimizing the fermentation medium of Clostridium butyricum

AIMS: Strains of Clostridium butyricum have been increasingly used as probiotics for both animals and humans. The aim of this study was to develop a growth medium for cultivating C. butyricum ZJUCB using a statistical methodology. METHODS AND RESULTS: Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to evaluate the effects of variables, namely the concentrations of the glucose, pectin, soyabean cake extract, casein, corn steep flour, ammonium sulphate, sodium bicarbonate and the medium initial pH. A fractional factorial design was applied to study the main factors that affected the growth of a probiotic strain of C. butyricum currently preserved in our lab and the central composite experimental design was adopted to derive a statistical model for optimizing the composition of the fermentation medium. The experimental results showed that the optimum fermentation medium for the growth of C. butyricum was composed of 2% glucose (w/v), 0.5% pectin (w/v), 0.2% casein (w/v), 3.98% soyabean cake extract, 0.1% (NH4)2SO4 (w/v), 0.124% NaHCO3 (w/v), 0.37% corn steep flour (w/v), 0.02% MnSO4 H2O (w/v), 0.02% MgSO4 7H2O (w/v) and 0.002% CaCl2 (w/v) at pH 7.5. CONCLUSIONS: After incubating 24 h in the optimum fermentation medium, the populations of the viable organisms were estimated to be 10(9) CFU ml(-1). In the present study, we report the optimization of a growth medium that produced increased yields using statistical approach. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The use of bacteria as a probiotic is showing increasing potential. The development of a growth medium that has a high yield is an obvious need, and the approach to optimizing a growth medium is innovative.

Use of response surface methodology to optimise carotenogenesis in the microalga,Haematococcus pluvialis

The factors controlling biomass production and the synthesis of astaxanthin esters in the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis (CCAP 34/7) have been investigated using a statistical approach employing response surface methodology (RSM). The culture conditions required for optimal growth and carotenogenesis in this alga are very different. Of particular importance is the photon flux density: for growth the optimum is 50–60 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹ whereas the optimum for astaxanthin synthesis is much higher at ∼-1600 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹. The addition of low levels of NaCl to the medium also stimulates to a small extent synthesis of astaxanthin, but photon flux density remains the overriding factor. The optimal temperature for this strain is quite low at 14–15 °C. RSM has been shown to be a rapid and effective technique leading to the optimisation of algal culture conditions. This statistical approach can be applied readily to the majority of microalgae and their products.

Predicting vegetative inoculum performance to maximize phytase production in solid-state fermentation using response surface methodology

Microbial phytase is used to reduce the environmental loading of phosphorus from animal production facilities. The limiting factors in the use of this enzyme in animal feeds can be overcome by solid-state fermentation (SSF), which is a promising technology for commercial enzyme production with lower production costs. Inoculum quality and the influence of inoculum quality on phytase production are important factors which need in-depth investigation before scaling-up of high-yielding fermentation process. A full factorial experimental design for 240 h with sampling at every 24 h was used to determine the effects of the treatments, inoculum age (plate and liquid culture), media composition and the duration of SSF on the production of fungal biomass and phytase in SSF systems using Aspergillus niger. The optimal treatment combination for maximal phytase production was determined by statistically comparing all treatments at each sampling time. Both 7- and 14-day plate cultures and M1+ medium composition with 72-h-old liquid inoculum treatments resulted in optimal phytase production at 144 h of SSF, which was the shortest duration observed for maximal phytase production. This resulted in maximal phytase production with a mean of 884±121 U/g substrate, while the maximal phytase production observed at 216 h of SSF (mean phytase activity of 1008±121 U/g substrate), with the same treatment combinations, was not statistically significant from that at 144 h of SSF. Phytase production was strongly growth-associated with younger inocula. The significant treatment variables, age of liquid inoculum and the duration of SSF, were used to predict the system response for phytase production using response surface methodology. From the response surface model, the optimal response of the experiment was predicted and the reliability of the prediction was checked with the verification experiment.

Use of response surface methodology for the optimization of the lipase-catalyzed synthesis of mannosyl myristate in pure ionic liquid

The purpose of the present study is to find the conditions allowing to reach the highest 24 h-yield (24 h-η) for the synthesis of mannosyl myristate catalyzed by the immobilized lipase B from Candida antarctica (Novozym^® 435) in the ionic liquid (IL) [Bmpyrr][TFO] (1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium trifluoromethanesulfonate). A full factorial design (FFD) was used in order to study the influence of three variables (temperature, mannose/vinyl myristate ratio and total substrate quantity) on the 24 h-η. This design led to a model based on a second order polynomial response function. The resulting predicted contour plots have shown that the highest 24 h-η should be obtained with high temperatures, low sugar/vinyl ester molar ratio and intermediate total substrate quantities (mmol). The model has been successfully verified and experimentally confirmed at the optimal conditions of 80 °C, substrate molar ratio of 1/10 and total substrate quantity of 0.26 mmol leading to the highest predicted 24 h-η of 72.2%.     

白腐真菌血红密孔菌漆酶复合酶预处理烟梗丝的响应面法优化

烟梗是烟草工业的重要副产物,也是宝贵的自然资源。本研究首先利用白腐菌漆酶对烟梗丝进行预处理,提升了添加烟梗丝的卷烟品质;然后分别以木质素、纤维素、半纤维素和果胶的降解率为响应值,采用Box-Behnken设计建立方程模型,对漆酶、纤维素酶、半纤维素酶和果胶酶组成的复合酶预处理烟梗丝条件进行了优化。结果表明：每100g烟梗丝加入30U漆酶,在料液比为35%、温度为30℃、酶解pH为5处理48h的条件下预处理的烟梗丝对提升卷烟品吸效果最佳,烟梗丝中木质素、纤维素、半纤维素和果胶的降解率分别为20.16%、15.10%、7.20%和12.40%;为获得与之相同的各组分降解率,响应面法优化漆酶复合酶最佳处理条件为：每100g烟梗丝加入漆酶14.72U、纤维素酶1.00U、半纤维素酶1.00U、果胶酶8.45U。验证发现烟梗丝各组分降解率实测值与理论值无显著性差异,且显微结构观察显示复合酶处理后的烟梗丝表面致密结构被破坏,孔洞数量明显增加。本研究获得的白腐菌漆酶预处理后的烟梗丝在卷烟中的添加能有效改善卷烟品质,且漆酶复合酶的使用大幅减少了漆酶的用量,降低了漆酶预处理烟梗丝的成本,为废弃烟梗生物质的资源化利用提供了重要依据。
