For the production of oil-desulfurizing biocatalyst, a two-stage fermentation strategy was adopted, in which the cell growth stage and desulfurization activity induction stage were separated. Sucrose was found to be the optimal carbon source for the growth of Gordonia nitida CYKS1. Magnesium sulfate was selected to be the sulfur source in the cell growth stage. The optimal ranges of sucrose and magnesium sulfate were 10-50 and 1-2.5 g x L(-1), respectively. Such a broad optimal concentration of sucrose made the fed-batch culture easy, while the sucrose concentration was maintained between 10-20 g x L(-1) in the actual operation. As a result, 92.6 g x L(-1) of cell mass was acquired by 120 h of fed-batch culture. This cell mass was over three times higher than a previously reported result, though the strain used was different. The desulfurization activity of the harvested cells from the first stage culture was induced by batch cultivation with dibenzothiophene as the sole sulfur source. The optimal induction time was found to be about 4 h. The resting-cell biocatalyst made from the induced cells was applied for the deep desulfurization of a diesel oil. It was observed that the sulfur content of the diesel oil decreased from 250 mg-sulfur x L-oil(-1) to as low as 61 mg-sulfur x L-oil(-1) in 20 h. It implied that the biocatalyst developed in this study had a good potential to be applied to a deep desulfurization process to produce ultra-low-sulfur fuel oils. 相似文献

Microbial desulfurization, or biodesulfurization (BDS), of fuels is a promising technology because it can desulfurize compounds that are recalcitrant to the current standard technology in the oil industry. One of the obstacles to the commercialization of BDS is the reduction in biocatalyst activity concomitant with the accumulation of the end product, 2-hydroxybiphenyl (HBP), during the process. BDS experiments were performed by incubating Rhodococcus erythropolis IGTS8 resting-cell suspensions with hexadecane at 0.50 (vol/vol) containing 10 mM dibenzothiophene. The resin Dowex Optipore SD-2 was added to the BDS experiments at resin concentrations of 0, 10, or 50 g resin/liter total volume. The HBP concentration within the cytoplasm was estimated to decrease from 1,100 to 260 μM with increasing resin concentration. Despite this finding, productivity did not increase with the resin concentration. This led us to focus on the susceptibility of the desulfurization enzymes toward HBP. Dose-response experiments were performed to identify major inhibitory interactions in the most common BDS pathway, the 4S pathway. HBP was responsible for three of the four major inhibitory interactions identified. The concentrations of HBP that led to a 50% reduction in the enzymes'' activities (IC 50s) for DszA, DszB, and DszC were measured to be 60 ± 5 μM, 110 ± 10 μM, and 50 ± 5 μM, respectively. The fact that the IC 50s for HBP are all significantly lower than the cytoplasmic HBP concentration suggests that the inhibition of the desulfurization enzymes by HBP is responsible for the observed reduction in biocatalyst activity concomitant with HBP generation. 相似文献

One possible alternative to current fuel hydrodesulfurization methods is the use of microorganisms to remove sulfur compounds. Biodesulfurization requires much milder processing conditions, gives higher specificity, and does not require molecular hydrogen. In the present work we have produced two compatible plasmids: pDSR3, which allows Escherichia coli to convert dibenzothiophene (DBT) to hydroxybiphenyl (HBP), and pDSR2, which produces a Vibrio harveyi flavin oxidoreductase. We show that the flavin oxidoreductase enhances the rate of DBT removal when co-expressed in vivo with the desulfurization enzymes. The plasmids pDSR2 and pDSR3 were co-expressed in growing cultures. The expression of oxidoreductase caused an increase in the rate of DBT removal but a decrease in the rate of HBP production. The maximum rate of DBT removal was 8 mg/h. g dry cell weight. Experiments were also conducted using resting cells with the addition of various carbon sources. It was found that the addition of glucose or glycerol to cultures with oxidoreductase expression produced the highest DBT removal rate (51 mg/h. g dry cell weight). The culture with acetate and no oxidoreductase expression had the highest level of HBP production. For all carbon sources, the DBT removal rate was faster and the HBP generation rate slower with the expression of the oxidoreductase. Analysis of desulfurization intermediates indicates that the last enzyme in the pathway may be limiting. 相似文献

Cyclodextrin glycosyl transferase (E.C: 2.4.1.19) from Bacillus, macerans and from a Bacillus sp. isolate was immobilized by two methods, viz. to epoxy-activated Sepharose and to alkylamine silica treated with glutaraldehyde. Because of the ready availability, low cost ($0.01/g), good surface area (30 M 2/g) and ease of operation of a continuous cylindrical reactor, the high silica fabric was chosen. The immobilized enzyme had a pH optimum shifted to the alkaline side (from 6.5 to 7.5) and had a reduced temperature optimum (from 60°C to 50-55°C). Reuse efficiency showed 65% reduction in the overall activity of the immobilized enzyme after 10 cycles of 48 h each. Continuous operation at 55°C of a cylindrical reactor of 141 ml capacity, using the immobilized enzyme (80 g of high - silica fabric containing 114 mg of purified enzyme) gave a maximum productivity of 10.2 g of cyclodextrins L -1 h, -1, at a dilution rate of 0.32 h -1 and a substrate concentration of 20 g L -1. The half life of the biocatalyst was found to be 22 days, which could be further improved by using a lower operating temperature. Over the useful life time of the immobilized biocatalyst (22 days), the total Cyclodextrin produced was of the order of 88 Kg. 相似文献

The nitrilase from Rhodococcus sp. CCZU10-1 catalyses the hydrolysis of dinitriles to acids without the formation of amides and cyanocarboxylic acids. It was induced by benzonitrile and its analogues (tetrachloroterephthalonitrile > ε-caprolactam > benzonitrile > phenylacetonitrile), and had activity towards aromatic nitriles (terephthalonitrile > tetrachloroterephthalonitrile > isophthalonitrile > tetrachloroisophthalonitrile > tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile > benzonitrile). After the optimization, the highest nitrilase induction [311 U/(g DCW)] was achieved with tetrachloroterephthalonitrile (1 mM) in the medium after 24 h at 30 °C after optimum enzyme activity was at pH 6.8 and at 30 °C. Efficient biocatalyst recycling was achieved by cell immobilization in calcium alginate, with a product-to-biocatalyst ratios of 776 g terephthalic acid/g DCW and 630 g isophthalic acid/g DCW. 相似文献

The DEAE-cellulose linked cells of Methylosinus trichosporium displaying high specific methane mono-oxygenase activity (66 mumol methane oxidized/h mg cells) were used for methanol biosynthesis from biogas derived methane in a batch and a continuous cell reactor. The optimum cell-to-carrier ratio was determined to be 0.5 g cells/g dry weight cellulose. Batch experiments indicated that 100 mM phosphate ion concentration was necessary to inhibit further oxidation of methanol; excess oxygen supply favored methanol accumulation with an increase in methane conversion efficiency to 27%. A pulse of 40 mM sodium formate at the end of 6 h resulted in restoration of methanol accumulation by regenerating NADH(2) required for the sustained activity of methane mono-oxygenase. Maximum methanol level of 50 mumol/mg cells was obtained in the batch reactor. In a standard 50-mL ultrafiltration continuous reactor, the covalently linked cells produced methanol at a continuous rate of 100 mumol/h for the first 10 h, after which the methanol accumulation rate fell low due to the depletion of NADH(2). The methanol accumulation could be stimulated by supplying sodium formate (40 mM) in either 20 or 100 mM phosphate buffer. Maximum methanol accumulation rate of 267 mumol/h was obtained when 20 mM formate was supplied in the feed stream containing 100 mM phosphate ions, and this level of biosynthesis was maintained for over 72 h. The stoichiometric balance made at various points of formate addition indicated that the molar amount of methanol generated at steady state is dependent on the equimolar addition of sodium formate to the feed. The half-life t(1/2) and thermal denaturation rate constant K(d) were computed to be 108 h and 6.42 x 10(-3) h(-1), respectively. 相似文献

Laccase from Myceliophthora thermophila was immobilized by encapsulation in a sol-gel matrix based on methyltrimethoxysilane and tetramethoxysilane. The amount of laccase used for the preparation of the hydrogel was in the range 2.2-22 mg of protein/mL sol and the corresponding enzymatic activities were in the range 5.5-17.0 U/g biocatalyst. The kinetic parameters of the encapsulated laccase showed that the immobilized enzyme presented lower affinity for the substrate 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS). However, the stability of laccase was significantly enhanced after immobilization; thus, both pH and thermal stability improved about 10-30% and tolerance to different inactivating agents (NaN(3) , ZnCl(2) , CoCl(2) , CaCl(2) , methanol, and acetone) was 20-40% higher. The reusability of the immobilized laccase was demonstrated in the oxidation of ABTS for several consecutive cycles, preserving 80% of the initial laccase activity after 10 cycles. The feasibility of the immobilized biocatalyst was tested for the continuous elimination of Acid Green 27 dye as a model compound in a packed-bed reactor (PBR). Removals of 70, 58, 57, and 55% were achieved after four consecutive cycles with limited adsorption on the support: only 10-15%. Finally, both batch stirred tank reactor (BSTR) operated in several cycles and PBR, containing the solid biocatalyst were applied for the treatment of a solution containing the endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs): estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2), and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2). Eliminations of EDCs in the BSTR were higher than 85% and the reusability of the biocatalyst for the degradation of those estrogens was demonstrated. In the continuous operation of the PBR, E1 was degraded by 55% and E2 and EE2 were removed up to 75 and 60%, at steady-state conditions. In addition, a 63% decrease in estrogenic activity was detected. 相似文献

An expert system was used to achieve the high production of desulfurizing cells of Rhodococcus erythropolis KA 2-5-1. By adding a proper amount of sulfur containing component with the aid of the expert system, we could avoid excess feeding which resulted in the lowering of desulfurizing activity and starvation which caused serious damage to cell growth. In order to determine the addition amount by the expert system, the data of the amount of chemical elements contained in the cells were used as a reference for comparison with the medium components present. Culture experiments were carried out using a 5l jar fermentor with several kinds of media whose components were determined based on the inferred results with the aid of the expert system. We could restrict the amount of the sulfur component addition so that sulfur was a growth-limiting factor; in contrast, the amounts of other elements were sufficient for growth.As a result, the maximum specific production rate of 2-hydroxy biphenyl (2HBP) and the maximum cell concentration were 20mmolkg-drycells(-1)h(-1) and of 45g-drycellsl(-1), respectively. At 100h of cultivation, 1g/l of dibenzothiophene (DBT) was converted to 2HBP within 20h, i.e., 10mmolkg-drycells(-1)h(-1) of specific desulfurization activity, and the specific activity remained stable for a long period in the culture experiment. 相似文献

A new method is presented for the treatment of gel-type supports, used for immobilizing microbial cells and enzymes, to obtain high mechanical strength. It is particularly useful for ethanol fermentation over gel beads containing immobilized viable cells, where the beads can be ruptured by gas production and the growth of cells within the gels. This method consists of treating agar or carrageenan gel with polyacrylamide to form a rigid support which retains the high catalytic activity characteristic of the untreated biocatalysts. The size and shape of the biocatalyst is unaffected by this treatment. The method involves the diffusion of acrylamide, N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide and beta-dimethylaminopropionitrile (or N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-ethylenediamine) into the performed biocatalyst beads followed by the addition of an initiator to cause polymerization within the beads. Treated gels have been used for the continuous fermentation of glucose to ethanol in a packed column for over two months. During this operation, the gel beads maintained their rigidity, and the maximum productivity was as high as 50 g h(-1) L(-1) gel. There was no appreciable decay of cell activity. 相似文献

Anaerobic dechlorination of technical grade hexachlorocyclohexane (THCH) was studied in a continuous upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor with methanol as a supplementary substrate and electron donor. A reactor without methanol served as the experimental control. The inlet feed concentration of THCH in both the experimental and the control UASB reactor was 100 mg l(-1). After 60 days of continuous operation, the removal of THCH was >99% in the methanol-supplemented reactor as compared to 20-35% in the control reactor. THCH was completely dechlorinated in the methanol fed reactor at 48 h HRT after 2 months of continuous operation. This period was also accompanied by increase in biomass in the reactor, which was not observed in the experimental control. Batch studies using other supplementary substrates as well as electron donors namely acetate, butyrate, formate and ethanol showed lower % dechlorination (<85%) and dechlorination rates (<3 mg g(-1)d(-1)) as compared to methanol (98%, 5 mg g(-1)d(-1)). The optimum concentration of methanol required, for stable dechlorination of THCH (100 mg l(-1)) in the UASB reactor, was found to be 500 mg l(-1). Results indicate that addition of methanol as electron donor enhances dechlorination of THCH at high inlet concentration, and is also required for stable UASB reactor performance. 相似文献

Summary Living Aspergillus terreus cells were entrapped in polyacrylamide gels and employed in both replacement batch and continuous column reactors to produce itaconic acid from glucose.With the replacement batch reactor, maximum itaconic acid productivity was observed under the following conditions: pH 2.50, temperature at 35°C, addition of NH 4H 2PO 4 and MgSO 4·7H 2O. Using the continuous reactor, the maximum itaconic acid yield was 60 mg/h/40 g of gel. The biocatalyst activity or half-life was about 10 days. 相似文献

An immobilized biocatalyst with invertase activity prepared by immobilization of whole yeast cells without use of any insoluble carrier was tested in tubular fixed-bed reactors from the point of view of possible application for continuous full-scale sucrose hydrolysis. At inlet sucrose concentration above 60% (w/w) and reaction temperature 60–70°C, total sucrose hydrolysis was achieved at a flow rate of 0.6–1.5 bed volumes per hour. At a flow rate about 10 bed volumes per hour, the conversion was still 0.5. The specific productivity of the biocatalyst was 3–25 h −1; the productivity of the reactor was 1–9 kg l −1 h −1. The half-life of the biocatalyst invertase activity was 815 h at 70°C. The specific pressure drop over the biocatalyst bed was less than 23 kPa m −1. The biocatalyst was proved to be fully capable of continuous sucrose hydrolysis in fixed-bed reactors. 相似文献

The objective of this work was to develop a hydrogel-coated monolith for the entrapment of penicillin G acylase (E. coli, PGA). After screening of different hydrogels, chitosan was chosen as the carrier material for the preparation of monolithic biocatalysts. This protocol leads to active immobilized biocatalysts for the enzymatic hydrolysis of penicillin G (PenG). The monolithic biocatalyst was tested in a monolith loop reactor (MLR) and compared with conventional reactor systems using free PGA, and a commercially available immobilized PGA. The optimal immobilization protocol was found to be 5 g l(-1) PGA, 1% chitosan, 1.1% glutaraldehyde and pH 7. Final PGA loading on glass plates was 29 mg ml(-1) gel. For 400 cpsi monoliths, the final PGA loading on functionalized monoliths was 36 mg ml(-1) gel. The observed volumetric reaction rate in the MLR was 0.79 mol s(-1) m(-3) (monolith). Apart from an initial drop in activity due to wash out of PGA at higher ionic strength, no decrease in activity was observed after five subsequent activity test runs. The storage stability of the biocatalysts is at least a month without loss of activity. Although the monolithic biocatalyst as used in the MLR is still outperformed by the current industrial catalyst (immobilized preparation of PGA, 4.5 mol s(-1) m(-3) (catalyst)), the rate per gel volume is slightly higher for monolithic catalysts. Good activity and improved mechanical strength make the monolithic bioreactor an interesting alternative that deserves further investigation for this application. Although moderate internal diffusion limitations have been observed inside the gel beads and in the gel layer on the monolith channel, this is not the main reason for the large differences in reactor performance that were observed. The pH drop over the reactor as a result of the chosen method for pH control results in a decreased performance of both the MLR and the packed bed reactor compared to the batch system. A different reactor configuration including an optimal pH profile is required to increase the reactor performance. The monolithic stirrer reactor would be an interesting alternative to improve the performance of the monolith-PGA combination. 相似文献

Desulfurizations of a model oil (hexadecane containing dibenzothiophene (DBT)) and a diesel oil by immobilized DBT-desulfurizing bacterial strains, Gordona sp. CYKS1 and Nocardia sp. CYKS2, were carried out. Celite bead was used as a biosupport for cell immobilization. Seven-eight cycles of repeated-batch desulfurization were conducted for each strain. Each batch reaction was carried out for 24 h. In the case of model oil treatment with strain CYKS1, about 4.0 mM of DBT in hexadecane (0.13 g sulfur l(oil)(-1)) was desulfurized during the first batch, while 0.25 g sulfur l(oil)(-1) during the final eighth batch. The mean desulfurization rate increased from 0.24 for the first batch to 0.48 mg sulfur l(dispersion)(-1) h(-1) for the final batch. The sulfur content in the light gas oil was decreased from 3 to 2.1 g l(oil)(-1) by strain CYKS1 in the first batch. The mean desulfurization rate was 1.81 mg sulfur l(dispersion)(-1) h(-1), which decreased slightly when the batch reaction was repeated. No significant changes in desulfurization rate were observed with strain CYKS2 when the batch reaction was repeated. When the immobilized cells were stored at 4 degrees C in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) for 10 days, the residual desulfurization activity was about 50 approximately 70% of the initial value. 相似文献

The influence of growth parameters on the fermentative production of a nisin-like bacteriocin by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis A164 isolated from kimchi was studied. The bacteriocin production was greatly affected by carbon and nitrogen sources. Strain A164 produced at least 4-fold greater bacteriocin in M17 broth supplemented with lactose than other carbon sources. The amount of 3% yeast extract was found to be the optimal organic nitrogen source. While the maximum biomass was obtained at 37 degrees C, the optimal temperature for the bacteriocin production was 30 degrees C. The bacteriocin production was also affected by pH of the culture broth. The optimal pH for growth and bacteriocin production was 6.0. Although the cell growth at pH 6.0 was nearly the same level at pH 5.5 and 6.5, the greater bacteriocin activity was observed at pH 6.0. Exponential growth took place only during an initial period of the cultivation, and then linear growth was observed. Linear growth rates increased from 0.160 g(DCW) x l(-1) x h(-1) to 0.245 g(DCW) x l(-1) x h(-1) with increases in lactose concentrations from 0.5 to 3.0%. Maximum biomass was also increased from 1.88 g(DCW) x l(-1) to 4.29 g(DCW) x l(-1). However, increase in lactose concentration did not prolong the active growth phase. After 20 h cultivation, cell growth stopped regardless of lactose concentration. Production of the bacteriocin showed primary metabolic kinetics. However, bacteriocin yield based on cell mass increased greatly during the late growth phase. A maximum activity of 131x10(3) AU x ml(-1) was obtained at early stationary growth phase (20 h) during the batch fermentation in M17L broth (3.0% lactose) at 30 degrees C and pH 6.0. 相似文献

Dibenzothiophene (DBT) degradation activity of recombinant Rhodococcus sp. T09/pRKPP was increased by about 3.5-fold by introduction of the NAD(P)H/FMN oxidoreductase gene ( dszD), while DBT desulfurization activity remained the same with production of dibenzo[1,2]oxathiin-6-oxide, which was caused by insufficient activity of the last desulfurization step involving a desulfinase. Introduction of an additional dsz operon resulted in a 3.3-fold increase DBT desulfurization activity (31 mol g dry cell –1 h –1) compared with that of T09/pRKPP (9.5 mol g dry cell –1 h –1). Furthermore, optimization of DBT at 25 mg l –1 and glucose at 10 g l –1, increased the total DBT desulfurization activity 2- to 3-fold due to increases in the DBT desulfurizing specific activity and the final cell concentration. 相似文献

A perfusion basket reactor (BR) was developed for the continuous utilization of insolubilized laccase as cross‐linked enzyme aggregates (CLEAs). The BR consisted of an unbaffled basket made of a metallic filtration module filled with CLEAs and continuously agitated by a 3‐blade marine propeller. The agitation conditions influenced both the apparent laccase activity in the reactor and the stability of the biocatalyst. Optimal laccase activity was obtained at a rotational speed of 12.5 rps and the highest stability was reached at speeds of 1.7 rps or lower. The activity and stability of the biocatalyst were affected drastically upon the appearance of vortices in the reaction medium. This reactor was used for the continuous elimination of the endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) nonylphenol (NP), bisphenol A (BPA), and triclosan (TCS). Optimization of EDC elimination by laccase CLEAs as a function of temperature and pH was achieved by response surface methodology using a central composite factorial design. The optimal conditions of pH and temperature were, respectively, 4.8 and 40.3°C for the elimination of p353NP (a branched isomer of NP), 4.7 and 48.0°C for BPA, and 4.9 and 41.2°C for TCS. Finally, the BR was used for the continuous elimination of these EDCs from a 5 mg L ?1 aqueous solution using 1 mg of CLEAs at pH 5 and room temperature. Our results showed that at least 85% of these EDCs could be eliminated with a hydraulic retention time of 325 min. The performances of the BR were quite stable over a 7‐day period of continuous treatment. Furthermore, this system could eliminate the same EDCs from a 100 mg L ?1 solution. Finally, a mathematical model combining the Michaelis–Menten kinetics of the laccase CLEAs and the continuous stirred tank reactor behavior of the BR was developed to predict the elimination of these xenobiotics.

Optimal conditions for a high cell density fermentation were investigated in a recombinant Escherichia coli producing salmosin, a platelet aggregation inhibitor. The optimized carbon and nitrogen sources were glycerol 10 g/l, yeast extract 30 g/l, and bacto-tryptone 10 g/l, yielding the dry cell weight (DCW) of 10.61 g/l in a 500 ml flask culture. The late-stage induction with 1% L-arabinose in a 5 l jar fermentor showed the highest DCW of 65.70 g/l after 27 h of the fed-batch fermentation. Around 2,200 mg/l of the protein was expressed as an inclusion body that was then refolded to obtain the active salmosin of 96 mg/l. We also confirmed the inhibitory activity against platelet aggregation of the active salmosin from the high cell density fermentation. 相似文献

Resting cells of Escherichia coli, immobilized in a flow-through bioreactor, coupled the oxidation of formate or hydrogen to Tc(VII) reduction and removal from solution. Cells, pregrown anaerobically in a hollow-fiber membrane bioreactor, were challenged with 50 muM Tc(VII) in a carrier solution of phosphate-buffered saline. The radionuclide accumulated within the membrane component of the reactor, corresponding to the localization of the cells. Negligible Tc removal was noted in a reactor containing a mutant deficient in active Tc(VII) reductase, when supplied with formate as an electron donor. Formate or hydrogen was supplied as the electron donor for Tc(VII) reduction to cells immobilized in reactors operated in transverse (crossflow) and direct (dead-end filtration) modes, respectively. Flow-rate activity relationships were used to compare the performance of the reactors. A flow rate of 2.4 mL h(-1) supported the removal of 50% of the Tc from solution in a reactor operated in transverse mode with formate as an electron donor. In contrast, a flow rate of 0.7 mL h(-1), supported comparable Tc removal when hydrogen was introduced to a reactor operated in direct mode. The reduced reactor efficiency, when hydrogen was used as an electron donor, could be attributed, in part, to poor delivery of the gas to the cells. The biocatalyst was highly stable in the reactor; no loss in activity was noted over 200 h of continuous use. (c) 1997 John Wiley & Sons Inc. Biotechnol Bioeng 55: 505-510, 1997. 相似文献

The amino acid and humic acid requirements of Saccharothrix algeriensis NRRL B-24137 for growth and production of the dithiolopyrrolone antibiotics were studied in a semi-synthetic medium (SSM). Nature and concentration of amino acids and humic acid strongly influenced the growth and dithiolopyrrolone specific production. The highest value of thiolutin (acetyl-pyrrothine) specific production was obtained in the presence of 1 g/l humic acid (336 mg/g DCW), and in the presence of 5 mM l-cystine (309 mg/g DCW) as compared to 19 mg/g DCW obtained with the control. Furthermore, thiolutin production was increased about six-fold, four-fold and three-fold in the presence of l-proline, l-glutamic acid and dl-histidine, respectively. In contrast, the production of thiolutin was reduced by addition of other amino acids such as l-glutamine, dl-ethionine, l-methionine and l-arginine. The highest value of isobutyryl-pyrrothine production was obtained in the presence of 2,6-diaminopimelic acid and l-lysine (7.8 and 1.0 mg/g DCW, respectively). However, the highest value of butanoyl-pyrrothine production was obtained in the presence of humic acid (6.6 mg/g DCW), followed by l-cysteine and l-proline (3.6 and 3.2 mg/g DCW, respectively). In addition, the maximum specific production of senecioyl-pyrrothine (29 mg/g DCW) and tigloyl-pyrrothine (21 mg/g DCW) was obtained in the presence of humic acid. We found that, except for isobutyryl-pyrrothine, production of all dithiolopyrrolones was favoured by addition of l-proline. The maximum specific production was obtained with l-proline at concentrations of 2.50 mM for thiolutin (133 mg/g DCW), 1.25 mM for senecioyl-pyrrothine, tigloyl-pyrrothine and butanoyl-pyrrothine production (29, 23 and 3.9 mg/g DCW, respectively). Production of all dithiolopyrrolones strongly decreased as the l-methionine or dl-ethionine concentration was increased in the culture medium. 相似文献
