Production and isolation of chitosan by submerged and solid-state fermentation from Lentinus edodes

A method for the laboratory-scale production and isolation of chitosan (polyglucosamine) by liquid and solidstate fermentation from Lentinus edodes was developed. The yields of isolated chitosan were 120 mg/L of fermentation medium under liquid fermentation conditions and 6.18 g/kg of fermentation medium under solid-state fermentation conditions. The latter method, which gives up to 50 times yields than other chitosan production methods from fungi, provides a new flexible and easily scaledup procedure for the production of low acetylation degree chitosan.

Comparative fermentation studies of industrial strains belonging to four species of solvent-producing clostridia

Industrial and culture collection strains of solvent-producing clostridia, classified as Clostridium acetobutylicum, Clostridium beijerinckii, Clostridium saccharobutylicum, and Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum were utilised in a comparative study of fermentation performance in a laboratory fermentation medium, a molasses fermentation medium, and a maize fermentation medium under standardised culture conditions. At least one representative strain was selected from each of the sub-groups within the four species. Preliminary evaluations were first undertaken for the three different fermentation media to determine the most appropriate media formulations, carbohydrate concentrations, and culture conditions for comparison of the solvent-producing ability of these strains. Standardised fermentation media and culture conditions were then selected for each of the comparative fermentation studies. These included TYA medium containing 4% glucose, a supplemented molasses medium containing 6% fermentable sugars, and a supplemented maize mash medium containing 8% maize. Additional comparative fermentation studies on industrial strains belonging to two species of solvent-producing clostridia were carried out in molasses containing higher concentrations of fermentable sugars, and the sugar concentrations supporting maximum levels of solvent production were determined. Although all the strains tested grew in the maize fermentation medium and degraded starch, only a few strains produced consistently high solvent levels. Optimum starch utilisation and solvent production was obtained at a maize concentration of 80 g/l. Pretreatment of the maize by milling or saccharification decreased the buffering capacity of the medium and resulted in decreased solvent production. Decreasing the time used to gelatinise the starch had little effect. Solvent yields and concentrations obtained in this study were compared with various published data in the scientific and patent literature and appeared to closely simulate the results obtained in the industrial fermentation process. The fermentation performances of individual strains could provide useful comparative data for the selection and development of strains for use on various commercial fermentation substrates.     

Optimization of fermentation medium and conditions for mycelial growth and water-soluble exo-polysaccharides production by Isaria farinosa B05

The optimal fermentation medium and conditions for mycelial growth and water-soluble exo-polysaccharides production by Isaria farinosa B05 were investigated. The medium components and fermentation conditions were optimized according to the one at a time method, while the concentration of medium components was determined by the orthogonal matrix method. The results showed that the optimal fermentation medium was as follows: sucrose 3.5% (w/v), peptone 0.5%, yeast extract 0.2%, K(2)HPO(4) 0.1%, and MgSO(4) 0.05%. The suitable fermentation conditions were as follows: initial pH 7.0, temperature 25 degrees C, medium volume 75 mL/250 mL, inoculum volume 5% (v/v), time 5d. In such optimal nutrition and environmental conditions, the maximal mycelial yield was 2.124 g/100 mL after 4 day's fermentation, while maximal water-soluble exo-polysaccharides production reached 2.144 g/L after 5 day's fermentation.     

Parameters Affecting Ethyl Ester Production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae during Fermentation

Volatile esters are responsible for the fruity character of fermented beverages and thus constitute a vital group of aromatic compounds in beer and wine. Many fermentation parameters are known to affect volatile ester production. In order to obtain insight into the production of ethyl esters during fermentation, we investigated the influence of several fermentation variables. A higher level of unsaturated fatty acids in the fermentation medium resulted in a general decrease in ethyl ester production. On the other hand, a higher fermentation temperature resulted in greater ethyl octanoate and decanoate production, while a higher carbon or nitrogen content of the fermentation medium resulted in only moderate changes in ethyl ester production. Analysis of the expression of the ethyl ester biosynthesis genes EEB1 and EHT1 after addition of medium-chain fatty acid precursors suggested that the expression level is not the limiting factor for ethyl ester production, as opposed to acetate ester production. Together with the previous demonstration that provision of medium-chain fatty acids, which are the substrates for ethyl ester formation, to the fermentation medium causes a strong increase in the formation of the corresponding ethyl esters, this result further supports the hypothesis that precursor availability has an important role in ethyl ester production. We concluded that, at least in our fermentation conditions and with our yeast strain, the fatty acid precursor level rather than the activity of the biosynthetic enzymes is the major limiting factor for ethyl ester production. The expression level and activity of the fatty acid biosynthetic enzymes therefore appear to be prime targets for flavor modification by alteration of process parameters or through strain selection.     

Improved production of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pseudomonas</Emphasis> sp. ECU1011 acetyl esterase by medium design and fed-batch fermentation

We optimized culture medium and batch-fed fermentation conditions to enhance production of an acetyl esterase from Pseudomonas sp. ECU1011 (PSAE). This enzyme enantioselectively deacetylates α-acetoxyphenylacetic acid. The medium was redesigned by single-factor and statistical optimization. The addition of ZnSO₄ enhanced enzyme production by 37%. Yeast extract concentration was directly associated with the enzyme production. The fermentation was scaled up in a 5-l fermenter with the optimized medium, and the correlations between enzyme production and dissolved oxygen, pH, and feeding strategy were investigated. The fermentation process was highly oxygen-demanding, pH sensitive and mandelic acid-inducible. The fermentation pH was controlled at 7.5 by a pH and dissolved oxygen feedback strategy. Feeding mandelic acid as both a pH regulator and an enzyme inducer increased the enzyme production by 23%. The results of the medium redesign experiments were confirmed and explained in fed-batch culture experiments. Mathematical models describing the fermentation processes indicated that the enzyme production was strongly associated with cell growth. The optimized pH and dissolved oxygen stat fed-batch process resulted high volumetric production of PSAE (4166 U/l, 7.2-fold higher than the initial) without enantioselectivity decline. This process has potential applications for industrial production of chiral mandelic acid or its derivatives.

Effect of pH on the batch fermentation of pullulan from sucrose medium

Two strains of the yeast-like fungus Aureobasidium pullulans 2552 and 140B have been used for the fermentative production of the polysaccharide pullulan from a sucrose synthetic medium. In the batch fermentation, either in Erlenmeyers or in the fermentor, the pH of the culture medium was decreased rapidly from its initial pH value of 5.5 to the self-stabilized final value of 2.5 within 24 h. Experiments on the effect of initial pH on the fermentation revealed that at very low initial pH values, such as at pH 2, the polysaccharide production was in-significant. However, the biomass concentration obtained was very high at this very low initial pH value. This interesting phenomenon was served as the basic principle for the development of the bistaged pH fermentation process for the production of pullulan. In this process the first stage of fermentation was conducted at the very acidic pH for the best production of biomass. When the biomass concentration reached its maximum value, the second stage of fermentation was initiated by adjusting the medium pH to a higher value for promoting the synthesis of the polysaccharide. Experiments conducted in Erlenmeyers and in the fermentor confirmed this concept. The bistaged pH process enhanced the polysaccharide concentration in the medium, influenced the rheological properties of the fermentation broth, and has a potential of operation under nonsterile and nonaseptic conditions.     

Gibberellic acid production using different solid-state fermentation systems

Gibberellic acid production in liquid fermentation was compared with production of this compound in solid-state fermentation systems using cassava flour, sugar cane bagasse and low density polyurethane. Gibberella fujikuroi produced 23 mg of gibberellin/ml in 120h of liquid fermentation. Solid-state fermentation on bagasse showed excellent growth but presented gibberellin extraction problems. Very low production and growth was observed in solid-state fermentation with low density polyurethane as an inert support. Solid-state fermentation on cassava flour showed high production (250 mg/kg of dry solid medium) in a very short time (36h).     

Medium for the presumptive identification of Aeromonas hydrophila and Enterobacteriaceae.

A medium was devised for the rapid presumptive identification of Aeromonas hydrophila. It also offered good differentiation of Klebsiella, Proteus, and other enteric species. Mannitol fermentation, inositol fermentation, ornithine decarboxylation and deamination, indole production, motility, and H2S production from sodium thiosulfate and cysteine could be recorded in a single tube of the medium.     

Complex media from processing of agricultural crops for microbial fermentation

This mini-review describes the concept of the green biorefinery and lists a number of suitable agricultural by-products, which can be used for production of bioenergy and/or biochemicals. A process, in which one possible agricultural by-product from the green crop drying industry, brown juice, is converted to a basic, universal fermentation medium by lactic acid fermentation, is outlined. The resulting all-round fermentation medium can be used for the production of many useful fermentation products when added a carbohydrate source, which could possibly be another agricultural by-product. Two examples of such products—polylactic acid and l-lysine—are given. A cost calculation shows that this fermentation medium can be produced at a very low cost ≈1.7 Euro cent/kg, when taking into account that the green crop industry has expenses amounting to 270,000 Euro/year for disposal of the brown juice. A newly built lysine factory in Esbjerg, Denmark, can benefit from this process by buying a low price medium for the fermentation process instead of more expensive traditional fermentation liquids such as corn steep liquor.     

Critical importance of moisture content of the medium in alpha-amylase production by Bacillus licheniformis M27 in a solid-state fermentation system

Summary A large reduction (about 30%–78%) is observed in the production of alpha-amylase by Bacillus licheniformis M27 in standardized wheat bran medium under solid-state fermentation when the moisture content of the medium is higher than the standardized value (65%). However, a surge in enzyme production in the first 24 h of fermentation is observed in media with 75% and 85% moisture. The role of decreased oxygen transfer in reducing enzyme tires by about 78% in the medium containing 95% moisture is evident, since the enzyme tire can be effectively increased by agitating the medium during fermentation. No such limitation in oxygen transfer is evident in medium containing 65% moisture even where incubated under static conditions or when the flask is capped by aluminum foil. The data indicate the critical importance of the moisture content of the medium in -amylase production by B. licheniformis M27 in solid-state fermentation systems. The results also have several implications of scientific and techno-economic importance and are useful in explaining some of the advantages of a solid-state fermentation system over the submerged fermentation process.

Improvement in ethanol production from beet molasses by soy flour supplementation

Summary Ethanol concentration and the rate of ethanol production were substantially increased when soy flour was added to the inoculum medium, which saved 95% added soy flour compared to supplementing fermentation medium. 11.7% ethanol was obtained by supplementing inoculum medium with soy flour and the fermentation time was reduced by more than 15%.     

Penicillin production by solid state fermentation

Summary Penicillin was produced by a non-sterile solid state fermentation (SSF) on bagasse impregnated with culture medium. The use of concentrated media greatly enhanced the antibiotic production in this system. It was observed that adequate initial moisture content (70%) of the impregnated solid medium results in higher production. A comparison between solid and liquid fermentation showed superior yield and productivity.     

Utilization of by-products derived from bioethanol production process for cost-effective production of lactic acid

The by-products of bioethanol production such as thin stillage (TS) and condensed distillers solubles (CDS) were used as a potential nitrogen source for economical production of lactic acid. The effect of those by-products and their concentrations on lactic acid fermentation were investigated using Lactobacillus paracasei CHB2121. Approximately, 6.7 g/L of yeast extract at a carbon source to nitrogen source ratio of 15 was required to produce 90 g/L of lactic acid in the medium containing 100 g/L of glucose. Batch fermentation of TS medium resulted in 90 g/L of lactic acid after 48 h, and the medium containing 10 % CDS resulted in 95 g/L of lactic acid after 44 h. Therefore, TS and CDS could be considered as potential alternative fermentation medium for the economical production of lactic acid. Furthermore, lactic acid fermentation was performed using only cassava and CDS for commercial production of lactic acid. The volumetric productivity of lactic acid [2.94 g/(L·h)] was 37 % higher than the productivity obtained from the medium with glucose and CDS.     

Optimization of a new heteropolysaccharide production by a native isolate of Leuconostoc sp. CFR-2181

Aim:  This work is aimed at optimizing the production of a new heteropolysaccharide (HePS) of Leuconostoc sp. CFR-2181 by standardizing the fermentation conditions in a low cost semi-synthetic medium.
Methods and Results:  Both nutritional and cultural parameters, such as carbon source and its concentration, initial pH of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) medium, fermentation temperature and fermentation period were optimized. Fermentation of the EPS medium (pH 6·7), containing sucrose at 5% (w/v) and 5% (v/v) inoculum, at 25 ° C resulted in maximum production of HePS (18·38 g l⁻¹) by the isolate in 4 h of fermentation.
Conclusions:  The isolate was found to produce good amount of HePS in just 4 h in a low cost semi-synthetic EPS medium.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  This is the first report on rapid production of HePS by any lactic culture, which can significantly reduce the cost of the EPS.     

Effects of nutrients on the production of AK-111-81 macrolide antibiotic by Streptomyces hygroscopicus

The influence of different carbon and nitrogen sources on the production of AK-111-81 nonpolyenic macrolide antibiotic by Streptomyces hygroscopicus 111-81 was studied. Substitution of glucose with lactose or glycerol significantly affected maximal antibiotic AK-111-81 productivity as the growth rate was close to that of the basal fermentation medium. Addition of ammonium succinate to the fermentation medium markedly increased the antibiotic productivity as the growth rate was low. Divalent ions as Mn2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ stimulated AK-111-81 antibiotic biosynthesis. These results allow us to develop a new fermentation medium showing 6-fold increase of AK-111-81 antibiotic formation compared with the basal fermentation medium.
