The spores of Humicola lutea entrapped in polyhydroxyethylmethacrylate gel were precultivated in production medium for mycelial formation. The immobilized mycelium was reused in batch mode for acid proteinases production. The influence of precultivation time, initial inoculum gel volume, and gel particle size on the enzyme activity and proteinases production half-life were studied. After 70 h precultivation of the entrapped spores (10 ml initial inoculum volume, 12–27 mm3 gel particle size) maximum proteinases activity of 100–140% (compared with free cells) was registered in 15 reaction cycles. Under the same condition the half-life time was 18 cycles, while for the free cells it was 5 cycles. The main advantage of the polyhydroxyethylmethacylate immobilized H. lutea was the long acid proteinases production half-life at a low concentration of outgrowing cells in the medium.  相似文献

The ability of immobilized cell cultures of Aspergillus niger FETL FT3 to produce extracellular tannase was investigated. The production of enzyme was increased by entrapping the fungus in scouring mesh cubes compared to free cells. Using optimized parameters of six scouring mesh cubes and inoculum size of 1 × 106 spores/mL, the tannase production of 3.98 U/mL was obtained from the immobilized cells compared to free cells (2.81 U/mL). It was about 41.64% increment. The immobilized cultures exhibited significant tannase production stability of two repeated runs.  相似文献

Summary Aspergillus niger mycelia or spores were immobilized in calcium alginate gel beads and employed for production of glucoamylase and -amylase by repeated batch process. The immobilized mycelium produced lower enzyme activities than immobilized spores germinated in a growth medium and subsequently cultured in an enzyme production medium. In repeated batch experiments, free cells could be used for only 4 4-day batches, whereas with immobilized spores at least 11 4-day batches with a gradual increase in enzyme activities in each successive batch were possible. The activity ratio of glucoamylase and -amylase produced was altered by immobilization.  相似文献

Summary Immobilized cells of Aspergillus niger needed a lower initial sucrose concentration than free cells in order to obtain maximal yields of citric acid production. High sucrose concentrations led to reduced yields and increased polyol formation (glycerol, erythritol, arabitol). Continuous fermentation with media containing low sugar concentrations prevented the formation of polyols. The change from nitrogen-limited to phosphate-limited precultivation of immobilized spores significantly increased the productivity of the mycelium. The ratio of citric acid to residual sugar in the effluent distinctly lay in the direction of citric acid. Inside the alginate beads mainly large bulbous cells were observed.  相似文献

Conclusions Immobilized vegetative cells ofC. acetobutylicum has a similar product formation pattern when incubated in a simple glucose-salts solution as ordinary growing cells. If vegetative cells of the organism are immobilized in the solvent production phase, solvents are continuously produced on extended incubation.By immobi1izing spores of the organism the disturbance of the cells metabolic activity during the immobilization procedure was avoided. After the outgrowth of viable cells within the gel, the washed gel preparation retained at a high production capacity in the non-growth stage and the results indicate that continuous production might be fully possible. The butanol productivity was also found to be higher with immobilized cells than in a normal batch process.  相似文献

Summary The spores of Aspergillus niger were entrapped in calcium-alginate beads and precultivated in growth media with various amounts of nitrogen. During the following citric acid production in shaking cultures an optimum of acid formation and yield was observed after the precultivation with 100–200 mg/l NH4NO3. The productivity of the immobilized Aspergillus was found to be 1.5 times higher than in the case of free pellets. The outgrowth of free mycelia into the medium could be provided by increasing the ratio particle-volume: medium volume, using a 1-l air-lift fermenter, by which means the productivity was increased twice as much as obtained in shaking culture.  相似文献

Summary Penicillium chrysogenum spores have been immobilized by adsorption on two grades of wet or dry diatomaceous earth particles, Chromosorb-W and Celite R-633. Almost 90% of the spores were adsorbed within 2 h and those remaining in suspension were removed by washing to minimise the growth of free mycelia. After germination the immobilized biomass was almost independent of the spore loading on the particles and whether or not the spore suspension was added to wet or dry particles. The free biomass obtained was less than 5% of the immobilized biomass.  相似文献

The morphology of the fungusHumicola lutea (strain 120–5), immobilized in polyacrylamide and polyhydroxyethylmethacrylate and used for the semicontinuous production of acid proteinases, was examined by scanning electron microscopy. The fungus developed a dense mycelium below the bead surface as well as in the bead interior after precultivation of entrapped spores. During maximal semicontinuous enzyme biosynthesis, formation of numerous large bulbous cells with a different shape was observed. Lysis of the cells was observed mainly in the centre of the gel beads after 13 successive fermentations with polyacrylamide-immobilized cells or after 21 re-uses of polyhydroxyethylmethacrylate-immobilized mycelia, respectively. Growth and changes in the cellular morphology of immobilizedH. lutea, accompanying biosynthesis of acid proteinases, were comparable in both gel matrices but mycelia immobilized in polyhydroxyethylmethacrylate maintained their productivity twice as long.  相似文献

Summary The influence of inorganic phosphate and immobilization on cells of Claviceps purpurea strain 1029/N5 producing ergot peptides in shake culture was examined. Immobilization in Ca-alginate beads resulted in a marked reduction of some metabolic activities, i.e. the periods of alkaloid formation and cell growth were prolonged. High concentrations of inorganic phosphate (1 g/l KH2PO4) could reduce or stop alkaloid formation both by free and immobilized cells at any time during fermentation. The optimum phosphate concentration for alkaloid production by immobilized cells (about 0.5 mM) was a quarter of that required by free cells. This optimum shift was attributed to (i) the diminished phosphate demand of immobilized cells, due to their reduced metabolic activities, and (ii) the phosphate-dependent morphological behaviour of the biocatalyst. The observed decrease in alkaloid concentrations during later periods of the fermentation supported the idea of alkaloid-degradative enzymes, activated by high phosphate concentrations. Immobilization showed an advantageous influence on this undesirable effect. Offprint requests to: H.J. Rehm  相似文献

The cellsof Rhodococcus rhodochrous M33, which produce a nitrile hydratase enzyme, were immobilized in acrylamide-based polymer gels. The optimum pH and temperature for the activity of nitrile hydratase in both the free and immobilized cells were 7.4 and 45°C, respectively, yet the optinum temperature for acrylamide production by the immobilized cells was 20°C. The nitrile hydratase of the immobilized cells was more stable with acrylamide than that of the free cells. Under optimal conditions, the final acrylamide concentration reached about 400 g/L with a conversion yield of almost 100% after 8 h of reaction when using 150 g/L of immobilized cells corresponding to a 1.91 g-dry cell weight/L. The enzyme activity of the immobilized cells rapidly decreased with repeated use. However, the quality of the acrylamide produced by the immobilized cells was much better than that produced by the free cells in terms of color, salt content, turbidity, and foam formation. The quality of the aqueous acrylamide solution obtained was found to be of commercial use without further purification.  相似文献

The therapeutic application of bromelain is limited due to its sensitivity to operating conditions such as high acidity, gastric proteases in the stomach juice, chemicals, organic solvents and elevated temperature. We hypothesized that bromelain immobilized on probiotic bacterial spores would show enhanced therapeutic activity through possible synergistic or additive effects. In this study, the oedema inhibition potential of bromelain immobilized on probiotic Bacillus spores was compared to the free enzyme using the carrageenan paw oedema model with Wistar rats. In batch A rats (carrageenan-induced inflammation 30 min after receiving oral treatments), group 7 rats treated with a lower dose of spore-immobilized bromelain suspension showed the highest oedema inhibition, 89.20 ± 15.30%, while group 4 treated with a lower dose of free bromelain had oedema inhibition of 60.25 ± 13.00%. For batch B rats (carrageenan-induced inflammation after receiving oral treatment for three days), group 7 rats treated with a lower dose of spore-immobilized bromelain suspension showed higher inhibition percentage (81.94 ± 8.86) than group 4 treated with a lower dose of free bromelain (78.45 ± 4.46) after 24 h. Our results showed that used alone, the enzyme and the spores produced oedema inhibition and improved the motility of the rats. The spore-immobilized bromelain formulation performed approximately 0.9-fold better than the free bromelain and the free spores at the lower evaluated dose.

Summary Di-n-butylphthalate (DBP) is one of the phthalate esters (PAEs) used in the manufacture of plasticizers, insect repellents and synthetic fibres and contributes to environmental pollution. We report a novel bacterium belonging to the genus, Bacillus (NCIM 5220), which has the ability to utilize DBP as the sole source of carbon and energy. This bacterium was immobilized in alginate. The degradation of DBP by immobilized cells was compared with free cells. The effects on the degradation of DBP of different factors like gel (alginate) concentration, gel bead size, temperature, and pH were investigated. Oxygen uptake in the presence of DBP by free and immobilized cells was also studied. The results showed that the degradation of DBP by immobilized cells was more efficient than by free cells. Further, the effect of various factors tested on the degradation of DBP by alginate-immobilized cells showed that the degradation of DBP was remarkably affected by alginate concentration between 2 and 5% and drastically decreased between bead size 2 and 5 mm. A change of 10 °C of reaction temperature from 30 to 40 °C did not alter the degradation of DBP, and maximum degradation was appeared to be favoured over a broad pH range of 6.5–7.5 for immobilized cells as compared to free cells, which showed an optimum temperature of about 35 °C and pH of 7.0. The immobilized cells showed higher oxidation of DBP than free cells. Thus more efficient degradation of DBP could be achieved by immobilizing Bacillus sp. in alginate beads.  相似文献

A gene encoding glutamate decarboxylase A (GadA) from Lactobacillus brevis BH2 was expressed in a His-tagged form in Escherichia coli cells, and recombinant protein exists as a homodimer consisting of identical subunits of 53?kDa. GadA was absolutely dependent on the ammonium sulfate concentration for catalytic activity and secondary structure formation. GadA was immobilized on the metal affinity resin with an immobilization yield of 95.8%. The pH optima of the immobilized enzyme were identical with those of the free enzyme. However, the optimum temperature for immobilized enzyme was 5?°C higher than that for the free enzyme. The immobilized GadA retained its relative activity of 41% after 30 reuses of reaction within 30?days and exhibited a half-life of 19 cycles within 19?days. A packed-bed bioreactor with immobilized GadA showed a maximum yield of 97.8% GABA from 50?mM l-glutamate in a flow-through system under conditions of pH 4.0 and 55?°C.  相似文献

This study investigated the growth rate of chitosan-immobilized cells of the marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus and its potential application in the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus for wastewater treatment. Immobilized cell cultures had a lag phase of growth due to the immobilization method, and their growth rate was similar to that of free-living cell cultures. Ammonia removal was higher in free cells (54%) than in immobilized cells (29%), but nitrate removal was similar in immobilized (38%) and free cells (44%); phosphorus removal was more efficient in free cells (88%) than in immobilized cells (77%). Chlorophyll a and protein content were higher in immobilized cells. Our study demonstrates that S. elongatus immobilized into chitosan capsules can remove nutrients and is able to maintain a growth rate comparable to that of free cells in culture.  相似文献

Summary The contribution of immobilized cells and free cells released from gel beads to ethanol production by the salt-tolerant yeastsZygosaccharomyces rouxii andCandida versatilis, and 4-ethylguaiacol (4-EG) production byC. versatilis were investigated using an airlift reactor. The amounts of ethanol produced by free cells were about 65% and about 90% of total ethanol in the reactor forZ. rouxii andC. versatilis, respectively. It was found that immobilized cells gave a much lower specific productivity of ethanol (ethanol production per hour per cell) than free cells of both yeasts, especially ofC. versatilis. 4-EG was produced mainly by immobilized cells ofC. versatilis; the amount of 4-EG produced by free cells was about 20% of the total 4-EG, in contrast to the results of ethanol production. However, the specific productivity of 4-EG (4-EG production per hour per cell) by immobilized and free cells was fairly similar.  相似文献

The biotransformation of acrylonitrile was investigated using thermophilic nitrilase produced from a new isolate Streptomyces sp. MTCC 7546 in both the free and immobilized state. Under optimal conditions, the enzyme converts nitriles to acids without the formation of amides. The whole cells of the isolate were immobilized in agar-agar and the beads so formed were evaluated for 25 cycles at 50°C. The enzyme showed a little loss of activity during reuse. Seventy-one per cent of 0.5 M acrylonitrile was converted to acid at 6 h of incubation at a very low density of immobilized cells, while 100% conversion was observed at 3 h by free cells.  相似文献

Aims: Most of the researches investigating immobilized fungi in chromate [Cr(VI)] bioremediation have used dead cells to adsorb Cr(VI). Therefore, the aim was to identify a Cr(VI)‐reducing fungus with the ability of reducing the toxic Cr(VI) into the much less toxic Cr(III) and to apply the immobilized living fungus in continual reduction of Cr(VI). Methods and Results: Cr(VI) reduction occurred using both free fungi and immobilized living Rhizopus sp. LG04. The Cr(VI) bioreduction by the free fungi was achieved mainly by bioreduction coupled with a small amount of biosorption on the cell surfaces. LG04 spores immobilized with 3% polyvinyl alcohol and 3% sodium alginate produced the most stable and efficient biobeads. When the LG04 biobeads were washed and transferred into fresh medium containing 42 mg l?1 of Cr(VI), the biobeads could be reused to reduce Cr(VI) for more than 30 cycles during an 82‐day operation period. Interestingly, as the cycles increased, the time required for complete reduction stabilized at approximately 2·5 days, which was faster than that obtained using the free fungi (4·5 days). The pH value of the solution decreased from 6·60 ± 0·10 to 3·85 ± 0·15 after each reduction cycle, which may be because the metabolic products of the fungus changed the environmental pH or because there was an accumulation of the organo‐Cr(III) complex. Conclusions: The results indicate that using the immobilized living fungus for the removal of Cr(VI) has the advantages in being stable, long‐term treatment, easy to re‐use and less biomass leakage. Significance and Impact of the Study: To our knowledge, this study reports the first successful use of immobilized living Rhizopus for the repeated reduction of Cr(VI).  相似文献

Summary Some physical factors including initial pH of medium, cultivation temperature and shaking speed as well as reuse affecting the production of cholesterol oxidase (CholOx) in reactors containing calcium alginate-immobilized cells of Rhodococcus equi No. 23 were investigated. Results revealed that the free cells showed the maximum CholOx in the culture with an initial pH of 5.0, while culture inoculated with immobilized cells exhibited a broad pH range, 6.0–9.0, for maximum CholOx production. The immobilized and free cells produced the maximum CholOx in the culture incubated at 30 and 25°C, respectively. The CholOx production decreased upon increasing the cultivation temperature. Increasing CholOx activity was also noted for both immobilized and free cells of R. equi No. 23 in the culture with increasing shaking speed. Under the optimal culture conditions, that were established, a higher maximum CholOx production of 0.94 unit/ml was found for immobilized R. equi No. 23 compared to that of 0.84 unit/ml for free cells after 48 h of cultivation. Furthermore, no gel leakage was noted after re-use of the calcium alginate-immobilized R. equi No. 23 for seven consecutive 48 h batch culture. The CholOx production in the seventh cycle was about 60.4% of that obtained in the first cycle.  相似文献

Process improvement of the production of cyclosporin A (Cy A), a powerful immunosuppressive fungal metabolite, has been undertaken by analyzing suspended and immobilized cell cultures in parallel. Conidiospores of the producer microorganism, Tolypocladium inflatum, were entrapped into porous celite particles. Easier germination of the entrapped spores and more active growth of the immobilized cells were manifested when compared with free cell cultures initiated with spores or with mycelial inocula. Significant differences in precursor flow between the immobilized and free cell systems were evident when the effects of L-valine (a constituent amino acid of the Cy A molecule) on Cy A biosynthesis were compared in the two systems. For the freely suspended cells, L-valine supplemented early in the fermentation served as a possible precursor or stimulator of Cy A biosynthesis. A significant increase in specific production and Cy A yield on carbon source was observed in this system relative to suspended cultures supplemented with L-valine during or after exponential growth. In contrast to the free cell cultures, the addition of L-valine during the initial stage of immobilized cell growth had a negative effect on Cy A production but resulted in somewhat increased cell growth. This suggests an incompatibility between primary and secondary metabolic networks involved in Cy A biosynthesis in the immobilized state upon external addition of the amino acid.  相似文献

The present study was performed to produce the protease using free and immobilized cells of locally isolated cold-adapted psychrotolerant yeast Cryptococcus victoriae CA-8. Cell immobilization was performed using sodium alginate as entrapping agent. The best conditions for enzyme production by both free and immobilized cells of the yeast were temperature of 15°C and initial pH of 8.0. The optimal incubation times were 72 and 96 h for immobilized and free cells, respectively. Immobilized cells were reused in 3 successive reaction cycles without any loss in the maximum protease activity. Little decreases in the protease activity were observed in 4 and 5 cycles. Under the optimized conditions, the maximum enzyme activities were determined as 12.1 and 13.5 U/mL for free and immobilized cells, respectively. This is a first attempt on cold-active alkaline protease production by free and/or immobilized cells of yeasts. Besides, the protease activity of the yeast C. victoriae CA-8 was investigated for the first time in the present study.  相似文献
