Enzymes, such as urease and uricase, were entrapped in three kinds of hollow fibers. The apparent Michaelis–Menten constants Km(app) obtained for these enzyme reactors were always larger than Km of free enzyme because of the permeation resistance of substrate across the hollow-fiber membrane. Km(app) increased with increasing degree of permeation resistance across the membrane by the increase in enzyme concentration. The half-life of the entrapped urease in the continuous reaction system was 60–80% of that of free enzyme. Activation energies of hollow-fiber enzyme reactors were always smaller than that of the free enzyme, because the activation energy of permeation was smaller than that of the enzyme reaction. 相似文献

In recent years there has been an increase in the interest in the production of compounds by isolation from natural sources or through processes that can be deemed "natural". This is of particular interest in the food and beverage industry for flavors and aromas. Hexanal, organoleptically known to possess "green character", is of considerable commercial interest. The objective of this study was to determine if the enzyme template known to be responsible for the synthesis of hexanal from linoleic acid (18:2) in tomato fruits could be harnessed using a hollow-fiber reactor. A hollow-fiber reactor system was set up and consisted of a XAMPLER ultrafiltration module coupled to a reservoir. The enzyme template was extracted from ripe tomato fruits and processed through an ultrafiltration unit (NMWC of 100 kDa) to produce a retentate enriched in soluble and membrane-associated lipoxygenase (LOX) and hydroperoxide lyase (HPL). This extract was recirculated through the lumen of the hollow-fiber ultrafiltration unit with the addition of substrate in the form of linoleic acid, with buffer addition to the reaction flask to maintain a constant retentate volume. Product formation was measured in the permeate using solid phase microextraction (SPME) developed for this system. At exogenous substrate concentrations of 16 mM and a transmembrane pressure of 70 kPa, hexanal production rates are in the order of 5.1 microg/min. Addition of Triton X-100 resulted in membrane fouling and reduced flux. The reactor system has been run for periods of up to 1 week and has been shown to be stable over this period. 相似文献

The aptitude of a hollow-fiber membrane reactor to determine lipase kinetics was investigated using the hydrolysis of triacetin catalyzed by lipase from Canadida cylindracea as a model system. The binding of the lipase to the membrane appears not to be very specific (surface adsorption), and probably its conformation is hardly altered by immobilization, resulting in an activity comparable to that of the enzyme in its native form. The reaction kinetics defined on the membrane surface area were found to obey Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The specific activity of the lipase in the membrane reactor was found to be significantly higher than in an emulsion reactor. The activity and stability of the enzyme immobilized on a hydrophilic membrane surface seem not to be influenced significantly by the choice of the membrane material. The hollow-fiber membrane reactor is a suitable tool to assess lipase kinetics in a fast and convenient way. 相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method using a hollow-fiber membrane reactor is described for the determination of penicillins. This method involves separation of penicillins on a C18 column, postcolumn reaction with sodium hydroxide and mercury (II) chloride introduced into the main flow stream using sulfonated hollow-fiber membrane reactors immersed in each solution (4 M sodium hydroxide and 3 X 10(-2) M mercury (II) chloride plus 10(-2) M nitric acid), and detection at 290 nm based on the uv absorbance of the degradation products. At penicillin concentrations of 5 micrograms/ml, within- and between-run precisions (relative standard deviation) were 0.24-2.39 and 1.19-4.13%, respectively. The detection limits of the proposed method were 1-5 ng at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The method was applied to assays of ampicillin and its metabolites in human serum and urine. 相似文献

A mathematical model for the transient response of encapsulated enzymes is developed showing the effects of the outer boundary layer, the encapsulating membrane, the partition coefficient, and diffusion with reaction within the encapsulating medium. The model incorporates both first-order kinetics and Michaelis-Menten kinetics for the reaction rate. Using typical hollow-fiber or microcapsule parameters, the model shows that (a) the partition coefficient affects the overall rate only when the rate-limiting step is diffusion through the membrane, (b) the transient overall effectiveness factor rises sharply with time and approaches an asymptotic value for most situations, and (c) the first-order approximation to Michaelis-Menten kinetics is not valid when the initial outside bulk concentration is higher than the Michaelis constant and the overall rate is reaction limited. The model is compared with experimental data using uricase in a hollow-fiber enzyme reactor configuration. Batch assay and CSTUER (continuous-stirred ultrafiltration enzyme reactor) studies were conducted on the free enzyme to provide some of the parameters used in the model. The CSTUER data fit the case of substrate inhibition kinetics with the apparent Michaelis constant approaching zero. The hollow-fiber reactor was conducted with uricase dissolved in both a buffer solution and a concentrated hemoglobin solution. Diffusivities of the solute were measured in both solutions as was the osmotic pressure of the hemoglobin solution. While experimental data for uricase in buffer solution could easily be matched by the model, that in the concentrated hemoglobin solution could not. 相似文献

Summary In an attempt to improve corrinoid production byM. barkeri strain Fusaro, a repeated fed-batch culture coupled with a membrane module on methanol-acetate medium was used. Productivity of 22 mg-corrinoid/1. day was obtained during 626 h cultivation with corrinoid and cell mass concentration of 95 mg/l and 25.9 g-dry cell/l, respectively. The minimum value for membrane flux permeation was 18 liter/m2. h for cell mass concentration between 25.9 to 31.0 g-dry cell/l. with rejection of 100 %. 相似文献

Analytical expressions, which allow the generation of effectiveness factor graphs for a reactor system employing immobilized whole cells a biocatalyst, are presented. In particular hollow-fiber devices (such as dialysis or ultrafiltration units) are considered. Such devices are analogs to a shell-and-tube heat exchanger. Whole cells are entrapped on the shell side: a nutrient solution is circulated through the tubes, substrate diffuses from the tube side, across the fiber, and into the cell mass on the shell side, where it irreversibly reacts to form product. The product back-diffuses into the circulating nutrient solution. The overall substrate mass-transfer process is hypothesized to be either diffusion limited in the hollow-fiber tube wall and/or the shell-side cell suspension and/or reaction limited at the enzyme sites within the whole cells. The first- and zero-order limits of the Michaelis-Menten rate law are used in generating effectiveness factor expressions. The effectiveness factor is a function of reaction order, Thiele modulus, diffusion coefficient ratio (defined as the effective substrate diffusivity in the hollow-fiber membrane wall divided by the effective substrate diffusivity in the cell suspension), partition coefficient, volume of the cell suspension, and hollow-fiber width. Equations for the effectiveness factor are also detailed when the hollow-fiber mass-transfer resistance is far greater than the cell suspension mass-transfer resistance. An effectiveness factor chart is presented specifically for the commercially available C-DAK 4 dialyzer (Cordis Dow Co., Miami, Florida). In general terms the effectiveness factor expressions are applicable for characterizing diffusion and reaction within a catalytically active cylindrical annulus, Whose inner surface offers a diffusional resistance and whose outer surface is impermeable to reactants. Some generalization of the Thiele modulus is undertaken which serves to draw the asymptotes on the effectiveness factor charts together. Comment is made on the variation of the slope of the effectiveness factor graph and its relation to the change in the observed reaction activation energy. Possible application of the model to the catalytic tube wall reactor is discussed. 相似文献

A hollow-fiber membrane reactor was designed and constructed to allow perfusion of entrapped, dense Escherichia coli cells with nutrient medium during examination of cell metabolism using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Phosphorus-31 NMR spectra of the perfused cells included peaks for nucleoside di- and triphosphates, sugar phosphates, and pH-sensitive peaks for inorganic phosphate. The observed intensity of the lumenal inorganic phosphate peak was found to depend on flow rate, ruling out the use of this peak as a concentration reference. Absolute intracellular pH values obtained from NMR measurements were found to be accurate to 0.2 pH units due to uncertainties in intracellular ionic concentrations. Relative pH values, however, were found to be sensitive to cell energetic status. The response of E. coli intracellular pH following a shift to carbon starvation medium was monitored with a resolution of 3 min. Use of a hollow-fiber reactor for cell containment and perfusion during NMR spectroscopy enables metabolic experiments of longer duration and of greater variety than is possible using standard, nonperfused sample tubes. 相似文献

A kinetic resolution process for the production of chiral amines was developed using an enzyme-membrane reactor (EMR) and a hollow-fiber membrane contactor with (S)-specific omega-transaminases (omega-TA) from Vibrio fluvialis JS17 and Bacillus thuringiensis JS64. The substrate solution containing racemic amine and pyruvate was recirculated through the EMR and inhibitory ketone product was selectively extracted by the membrane contactor until enantiomeric excess of (R)-amine exceeded 95%. Using the reactor set-up with flat membrane reactor (10-mL working volume), kinetic resolutions of alpha-methylbenzylamine (alpha-MBA) and 1-aminotetralin (200 mM, 50 mL) were carried out. During the operation, concentration of ketone product, i.e., acetophenone or alpha-tetralone, in a substrate reservoir was maintained below 0.1 mM, suggesting efficient removal of the inhibitory ketone by the membrane contactor. After 47 and 32.5 h of operation using 5 U/mL of enzyme, 98.0 and 95.5% ee of (R)-alpha-MBA and (R)-1-aminotetralin were obtained at 49.5 and 48.8% of conversion, respectively. A hollow-fiber membrane reactor (39-mL working volume) was used for a preparative-scale kinetic resolution of 1-aminotetralin (200 mM, 1 L). After 133 h of operation, enantiomeric excess reached 95.6% and 14.3 g of (R)-1-aminotetralin was recovered (97.4% of yield). Mathematical modeling of the EMR process including the membrane contactor was performed to evaluate the effect of residence time. The simulation results suggest that residence time should be short to maintain the concentration of the ketone product in EMR sufficiently low so as to decrease conversion per cycle and, in turn, reduce the inhibition of the omega-TA activity. 相似文献

Summary
Catharanthus
roseus cells producing indole alkaloids were grown on surfaces of Ca-alginate beads within the interspacial volume of a packed column. Production media was circulated through the packed column in an upflow mode. Growth and indole alkaloid formation were quantified and compared with suspension culture of cells. Final alkaloid concentration and alkaloid yield obtained in the packed bed was superior to those obtained in suspension culture. This is thought to be due to improved cell-cell contact and interaction in the packed column. 相似文献

Three kinds of ampholites, i.e., 3-aminopropionic acid (NH2C2H4COOH), (2-aminoethyl)phosphonic acid (NH2C2H4PO3H2), and 2-aminoethane-1-sulfonic acid (NH2C2H4SO3H), were introduced into an epoxy group-containing polymer brush grafted onto a porous hollow-fiber membrane with a porosity of 70% and pore size of 0.36 microm. The amphoteric group density of the hollow-fiber ranged from 0.50 to 0.72 mmol/g. Three kinds of proteins, i.e., lactoferrin (Lf), cytochrome c (Cyt c), and lysozyme (Ly), were captured by the amphoteric polymer brush during the permeation of the protein solution across the ampholite-immobilized porous hollow-fiber membrane. Multilayer binding of the protein to the amphoteric polymer brush, with a degree of multilayer binding of 3.3, 8.6, and 15 for Lf, Cyt c, and Ly, respectively, with the (2-aminoethyl)phosphonic acid-immobilized porous hollow-fiber membrane, was demonstrated with a negligible diffusional mass-transfer resistance of the protein to the ampholite immobilized. The 2-aminoethane-1-sulfonic acid-immobilized porous hollow-fiber membrane exhibited the lowest initial flux of the protein solution, 0.41 m/h at a transmembrane pressure of 0.1 MPa and 298 K, and the highest equilibrium binding capacity of the protein, e.g., 130 mg/g for lysozyme. Extension and shrinkage of the amphoteric polymer brushes were observed during the binding and elution of the proteins. 相似文献

Fermentation of lignocellulose hydrolysates as spent sulfite liquor or as hydrolysate from sulfur-dioxide-treated wood to ethanol has been controlled by using biosensors for glucose and ethanol. Yield and productivity were studied with respect to concentration level of the metabolites in a continuous hollow-fiber reactor. High constant yield was achieved by controlling the glucose to low concentration levels. Reduced productivity were obtained when fermenting at high ethanol concentrations as an effect of inhibition of the yeast cells. The observations emphasize the advantage of controlling the process to favorable concentrations of monosaccharides and ethanol. 相似文献

A hollow-fiber enzyme reactor, operating under isothermal and nonisothermal conditions, was built employing a polypropylene hollow fiber onto which beta-galactosidase was immobilized. Hexamethylenediamine and glutaraldehyde were used as spacer and coupling agent, respectively. Glucose production was studied as a function of temperature, substrate concentration, and size of the transmembrane temperature gradient. The actual average temperature differences across the polypropylene fiber, to which reference was done to evaluate the effect of the nonisothermal conditions, were calculated by means of a mathematical approach, which made it possible to know, using computer simulation, the radial and axial temperature profiles inside the bioreactor and across the membrane. Percent activity increases, proportional to the size of the temperature gradients, were found when the enzyme activities under nonisothermal conditions were compared to those measured under comparable isothermal conditions. Percent reductions of the production times, proportional to the applied temperature gradients, were also calculated. The advantage of employing nonisothermal bioreactors in biotechnological industrial process was discussed. 相似文献

The potential of the membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) for high-rate bio-oxidation was investigated. A reaction-diffusion model was combined with a preliminary hollow-fiber MABR process model to investigate reaction rate-limiting regime and to perform comparative analysis on prospective designs and operational parameters. High oxidation fluxes can be attained in the MABR if the intra-membrane oxygen pressure is sufficiently high, however the volumetric oxidation rate is highly dependent on the membrane specific surface area and therefore the maximum performance, in volumetric terms, was achieved in MABRs with relatively thin fibers. The results show that unless the carbon substrate concentration is particularly high, there does not appear to be an advantage to be gained by designing MABRs on the basis of thick biofilms even if oxygen limitations can be overcome. 相似文献

The microporous polyethylene hollow-fiber membrane has a unique microfibrile structure throughout its depth and has been found to possess the functions of filtration and adsorption of endotoxin in water. The membrane has a maximum pore diameter of approximately 0.04 micron, a diameter which is within the range of microfiltration. Approximately 10 and 20% of the endotoxin in tap water and subterranean water, respectively, was smaller than 0.025 micron. Endotoxin in these water sources was efficiently removed by the microporous polyethylene hollow-fiber membrane. Escherichia coli O113 culture broth contained 26.4% of endotoxin smaller than 0.025 micron which was also removed. Endotoxin was leaked into the filtrate only when endotoxin samples were successively passed through the membrane. These results indicate that endotoxin smaller than the pore size of the membrane was adsorbed and then leaked into the filtrate because of a reduction in binding sites. Dissociation of 3H-labeled endotoxin from the membrane was performed, resulting in the removal of endotoxin associated with the membrane by alcoholic alkali at 78% efficiency. 相似文献

Summary In order to minimize the adverse effect of CO2 gas in a packed bed immobilized yeast reactor, a fluidized bed reactor was used for the continuous production of ethanol from glucose. Immobilized yeast was prepared by entrapping whole cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae within a Caalginate matrix. It was found that the efficiency of the ethanol production in a fluidized bed reactor was 100% better than that for a packed bed reactor system. The alcohol productivity obtained was 21 g/l/hr in a fluidized bed reactor at 94% of conversion level. 相似文献

Continuous asymmetric reduction of dyhydrooxoisophorone (DOIP) to 4-hydroxy-2,2,6-trimethylcyclo-hexanone (4-HTMCH) was achieved by a thermophilic bacterium Bacillus stearothermophilus NK86-0151. Three reactors were used: an air-bubbling hollow-fiber reactor with cell bleeding and cross-flow filtration, an air-lift reactor, and a CSTR with PAA immobilized cells. The maximum cell concentration of 11.1 g dry wt L(-1) was obtained in an air-bubbling hollow-fiber reactor, while in the other reactors the cell densities were between 3.5 and 4.1 g dry wt L(-1) The optimum bleed ratio was 0.1 at the dilution rate 0.3 h(-1) in the hollow-fiber reactor. The highest viable cell concentration was maintained in the dilution range of 0.4-0.7 h(-1) by a combination of proper cell bleeding and cross-flow filtration. The maximum volumetric productivity of 4-HTMCH reached 826 mg L(-1) h(-1) at the dilution rate 0.54 h(-1). This value was 4 and 2 times higher than those in the air-lift reactor and CSTR, respectively. The increasing viable cell concentration increased the volumetric productivity of 4-HTMCH. A cell free product solution was continuously obtained by cross-flow filtration. 相似文献

Ascorbate with phenazine methosulfate was able to energize the membrane of inside-out membrane vesicles from cytochrome-containing but not cytochrome-deficient cells of the E., coli, hem A? mutant SASX76 as measured by the quenching of the fluorescence of acridine dyes. This substrate could also energize vesicle membranes from the ubiquinone-deficient mutant E., coli AN59 in the absence of exogenous ubiquinone. These results suggest that there is site of membrane energization coupled to substrate oxidation in the respiratory chain of E., coli in the cytochrome region between ubiquinone and oxygen. 相似文献

The effects of the high-molecular-weight growth factors, transferrin and bovine serum albumin (BSA), on antibody production were analyzed quantitatively in continuous hollow-fiber cultivation over a period of 60 days. Transferrin enhanced cell growth but had no significant effect on the specific antibody production rate, whereas BSA significantly enhanced antibody production. The antibody production rate was increased 4- and 14-fold respectively by feeding BSA at 2 and 5 g L(-1) into the EC side of the system (the side connected to the cell-containing outer part of the hollow-fiber unit) compared with the production achieved without BSA. Addition of 5 g L(1) BSA into the IC side of the system (the side connected to the inner part of the hollow-fiber unit) resulted in a 2.5-fold increase in the antibody production rate. The effect of BSA was also analyzed using the perfusion culture system with a separation unit. When fresh medium containing either 2 or 5 g L(-1) BSA was fed into the reactor, both the specific growth rate and specific death rate increased, while the specific antibody production rate was increased 2- and 25-fold, respectively, by feeding BSA at these two concentrations compared with no addition. Comparing the two systems, the increase in the antibody production rate achieved with the hollow-fiber system was threefold greater than that in the perfusion culture system with the same concentration of BSA feeding.
