Kinetics and modeling of temperature effects on batch xanthan gum fermentation

Batch fermentation kinetics of xanthan gum production from glucose by Xanthomonas campestris at temperatures between 22 degrees C and 35 degrees C were studied to evaluate temperature effects on cell growth and xanthan formation. These batch xanthan fermentations were modeled by the logistic equation for cell growth, the Luedeking-Piret equation for xanthan production, and a modified Luedeking-Piret equation for glucose consumption. Temperature dependence of the parameters in this model was evaluated. Growth-associated rate constants increased to a maximum at approximately 30 degrees C and then decreased to zero at approximately 35 degrees C. This temperature effect can be modeled using a square-root model. On the contrary, non-growth-associated rate constants increased with increasing temperature, following the Arrhenius relationship, in the entire temperature range studied. The model developed in this work fits the experimental data very well and can be used in a simulation study. However, due to the empirical nature of the model, the parameter values need to be reevaluated if the model is to be applied to different growth conditions.

Bioproduction of low-pigment xanthan gum by a cell-wall deficient mutant of Xanthomonas campestris

Abstract

This work aims to enhance the bioproduction of xanthan gum by screening a hyper-yield producer from the wild-type Xanthomonas campestris during a long-term continuous subculture. We reported a cell-wall deficient mutant, which performed a shift of cell morphology from rod-shaped to round-shaped. Both the yield of xanthan gum and the conversion rate of feedstock were assessed using sucrose as a carbon source with the supplement of yeast extract powder, l-glutamic acid, and other raw materials. After 96?h aerobic fermentation, the yield of xanthan gum of the mutant reached up to 32?g/L, which was 3.4 times of that of the wild-type strain. The conversion rate of feedstock in the mutant was up to 92.1%, which was 3 times of that of the wild-type (31.2%). Furthermore, pigments generated were determined and compared. As a result, the fermentation broth of the wild-type performed an OD_560nm of 0.296, which was 5.8 times of that (OD_560nm?=?0.051) of the mutant. Microscopy analysis showed that the percentage of free-living cells in broth affected the color of the final product. Moreover, the robustness of the fermentation performance of the cell-wall deficient mutant at a pilot scale showed potential for industrial application.     

Sources and methods of manufacturing xanthan by fermentation of various carbon sources

Xanthan gum, an anionic polysaccharide with an exceptionally high molecular weight, is produced by the bacterium Xanthomonas sp. It is a versatile compound that has been utilized in various industries for decades. Xanthan gum was the second exopolysaccharide to be commercially produced, following dextran. In 1969, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved xanthan gum for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The food industry values xanthan gum for its exceptional rheological properties, which make it a popular thickening agent in many products. Meanwhile, the cosmetics industry capitalizes on xanthan gum's ability to form stable emulsions. The industrial production process of xanthan gum involves fermenting Xanthomonas in a medium that contains glucose, sucrose, starch, etc. as a substrate and other necessary nutrients to facilitate growth. This is achieved through batch fermentation under optimal conditions. However, the increasing costs of glucose in recent years have made the production of xanthan economically unviable. Therefore, many researchers have investigated alternative, cost-effective substrates for xanthan production, using various modified and unmodified raw materials. The objective of this analysis is to investigate how utilizing different raw materials can improve the cost-efficient production of xanthan gum.     

Production of xanthan gum by Sphingomonas bacteria carrying genes from Xanthomonas campestris

Twelve genes coding for assembly, acetylation, pyruvylation, polymerization, and secretion of the polysaccharide xanthan gum are clustered together on the chromosome of the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. These genes (gumBCDEFGHIJKLM) are sufficient for synthesis of xanthan gum when placed in bacteria from a different genus, Sphingomonas. The polysaccharide from the recombinant microorganism is largely indistinguishable, structurally and functionally, from native xanthan gum. These results demonstrate that a complex pathway for biosynthesis of a specific polysaccharide can be acquired by a single inter-generic transfer of genes between bacteria. This suggests the biological and commercial feasibility of synthesizing xanthan gum or other polysaccharides in non-native hosts.

High production of xanthan gum by a glycerol-tolerant strain Xanthomonas campestris WXLB-006

The superior properties of xanthan gum make it an industrial aginomoto used in many industries, especially in oil recovery. In the present work, xanthan production from glycerol by a mutant strain Xanthomonas campestris WXLB-006 reached as high as 17.8?g/L in flask culture. With the adoption of pH control, varied aeration and agitation, and varied glycerol feeding strategy, xanthan production reached 33.9?g/L in a 7-L fermenter and fermentation time decreased to 60?hr. Instead of difficultly and costly purifying glycerol, this research provides a very good case for glycerol utilization. At the same time, this is the first report on a high glycerol-tolerant strain for microbial polysaccharide production and 33.9?g/L is the highest production of xanthan gum produced from glycerol so far.
