The effect of carbon concentration and carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (C:N) as well as their interaction on Colletotrichum coccodes growth and sporulation in submerged flask culture were evaluated. When C:N ratios were held constant, both mycelial dry biomass and spore yield increased with increasing carbon concentration. The specific spore yields (spore yield g−1 carbon), however, were not significantly different for the same C:N ratio in most cases. The highest spore yields (1.3 × 108 spores per ml) were obtained from media containing 20 g per liter carbon with C:N ratios ranging from 5:1 to 10:1. When the C:N ratio was greater than 15:1, spore yields were significantly decreased with increasing C:N ratios. High carbon concentration (20 g L−1) combined with high C:N ratios (above 15:1) reduced both mycelial growth and sporulation, and increased spore matrix production. Spores produced in medium containing 10 g L−1 carbon with C:N ratios from 10:1 to 15:1 had 90% germination on potato dextrose agar after 12 h and caused extensive shoot dry weight reduction on the target weed, velvetleaf. These results suggest that C:N ratios from 10:1 to 15:1 are optimal for C. coccodes spore production. Received 9 December 1997/ Accepted in revised form 22 May 1998  相似文献

Of six strains of Mortierella tested, Mortierella alpina ATCC 32222 produced the highest yields of arachidonic acid. Supplementation of soy flour (1% w/v) and vegetable oils (1% v/v) significantly increased the biomass, lipid content and arachidonic acid level. Replacement of NaNO3 with corn steep liquor (1% w/v) also improved arachidonic acid production. A fed-batch culture system at 25 °C, producing a high biomass (52.4 g/l) and arachidonic acid content (9.1 g/l) in 8␣days, was developed. A fed-batch system at low temperature (15 °C) gave even higher arachidonic acid levels (11.1 g/l) in 11 days.

Induction of submerged conidiation of Penicillium oxalicum has been examined using a range of synthetic and complex media and complex media supplemented with by-products of the brewing industry. Only one method (Morton's method), consisting of growth in a glucose/salts-based medium (C:N ratio 62.5, medium A) for 24 h and then transference to the same medium without a nitrogen source (medium B), induced conidiation. Levels of sporulation were significantly (P = 0.05) increased by addition of calcium or poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 to medium B. The optimum age for transference of the mycelium was 24 h and the optimum pH was 6. Calcium was an induction factor when added to medium A (C:N ratio 62.5) of Morton's method. It was concluded that nitrogen depletion and calcium addition to a medium with high C:N ratio are the factors inducing conidiation of P. oxalicum. Maximum levels of conidiation (35 × 106 spores ml−1) were obtained when the nitrogen level in medium A of Morton's method was further reduced (C:N ratio 142.9) and calcium (20 mM) was added. These results are the essential starting point to investigate liquid fermentation systems for the biocontrol agent P. oxalicum.

To improve the economic competitiveness of the acetone/butanol/ethanol fermentation process, glucose/corn steep water (CSW) medium was used on a pilot scale for the production of solvents. The production of butanol by the Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 parent strain and the solvent-hyperproducing BA101 mutant was compared. In a 20-l fermentation using 5% glucose/CSW medium,  C. beijerinckii 8052 produced 8.5 g butanol/l and 5 g acetone/l, while  C. beijerinckii BA101 produced 16 g butanol/l and 7.5 g acetone/l. Further studies were carried out on a larger scale using an optimized 6% glucose/CSW medium. In a 200-l pilot-scale fermentor,  C. beijerinckii 8052 produced 12.7 g butanol/l and 6 g acetone/l following 96 h of fermentation.  C. beijerinckii BA101 produced 17.8 g/l and 5.5 g/l butanol and acetone respectively, following 130 h of fermentation. These results represent a 40% increase in final butanol concentration by the C. beijerinckii BA101 mutant strain when compared to the 8052 parent strain. The total solvents (acetone, butanol, and ethanol) produced by C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and BA101 in a 200-l fermentation were 19.2 g/l and 23.6 g/l respectively. This is the first report of pilot-scale butanol production by the solvent-hyperproducing C. beijerinckii BA101 mutant employing an inexpensive glucose/CSW medium.

Lactobacillus intermedius NRRL B-3693 produced mannitol, lactic acid, and acetic acid when grown on fructose at 37°C. The optimal pH for mannitol production from fructose by the heterofermentative lactic acid bacterium (LAB) in pH-controlled fermentation was at pH 5.0. It produced 160.7 ± 1.1 g mannitol in 40 h with a volumetric productivity of 4.0 g l−1 h−1 in a simplified medium containing 250 g fructose, 50 g corn steep liquor (CSL), and 33 mg MnSO4 per liter. However, the mannitol production by the LAB was severely affected by the variability of CSL. The supplementation of CSL with soy peptone (5 g/l), tryptophan (50 mg/l), tryptophan (50 mg/l) plus tyrosine (50 mg/l), or commercial protease preparation (2 ml/100 g of CSL) enhanced the performance of the inferior CSL and thus helped to overcome the nutrient limitations.  相似文献

The biodegradation of phenol by a pure culture of Pseudomonas putida was investigated in a continuously fed stirred-tank reactor, under aerobic conditions. The dilution rate was varied between 0.0174 h−1 and 0.278 h−1, covering a wide range of dissolved oxygen and the inhibition region of phenol. Through non-linear analysis of the data, a dual-substrate growth kinetics, Haldane kinetics for phenol and Monod kinetics for oxygen, was derived with high correlation coefficients. Respective biokinetic parameters were evaluated as μm = 0.569 h−1, K p = 18.539 mg/l, K i = 99.374 mg/l, K o = 0.048 mg/l, Y x/p = 0.521 g microorganism/g phenol and Y x/o = 0.338 g microorganism/g oxygen, being in good agreement with other studies in the literature. Maintenance factors for both phenol and oxygen were calculated for the first time for P. putida while the saturation coefficient for oxygen, K o, was genuinely evaluated from the constructed model, not imported or adapted from other studies as reported in the literature. All pertinent biokinetic parameters for P. putida have been calculated from continuous system data, which are most appropriate for use in continuous bioprocess applications.

Rosmarinic acid production by Lavandula vera MM cell-suspension culture   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The time courses of growth and rosmarinic acid production by Lavandula vera MM cell suspension were investigated. The uptake of the main nutrients (sucrose, nitrogen, phosphorus, K, Ca, Mg) was followed during cultivation and the data on the physiology of the L. vera MM cell culture are presented. It was established that the cell culture synthesizes rosmarinic acid during the linear phase of growth for a relatively short period (between the 4th and 8th days of cultivation). The influence of sucrose concentration in the nutrient medium on cell growth and accumulation of rosmarinic acid by L. vera MM cell culture was investigated. The results showed that 7% sucrose in the nutrient medium ensured a steady growth of the cell suspension and increased the yield of rosmarinic acid (29.2 g/l dry biomass and 507.5 mg/l rosmarinic acid compared to 13.0 g/l dry biomass and 68.6 mg/l rosmarinic acid for the control cultivation with 3% sucrose).

Studies on the feasibility of using delignified oil palm empty-fruit-bunch (OPEFB) fibres as a substrate for cellulase production by Chaetomium globosum strain 414 were carried out in shake-flask cultures containing different types and concentrations of nitrogen source. Peptone, as nitrogen source, gave maximum production of all the three main components of the cellulase complex (endoglucanase or carboxymethylcellulase, cellobiohydrolase or filter-paper-hydrolysing enzyme and β-glucosidase), followed by yeast extract, urea, KNO3 and (NH4)2SO4. The maximum specific growth rate (μmax) of C. globosum strain 414 grown in medium containing OPEFB and peptone was 0.038 h−1. In all the fermentations, the fungus was able to produce all the three cellulases with significant amounts of β-glucosidase, except when using (NH4)2SO4 as nitrogen source, where β-glucosidase was not produced. With 6 g/l peptone and 10 g/l delignified OPEFB fibres, the fungus produced maximum concentrations of FPase, carboxymethylcellulase and β-glucosidase: 1.4, 30.8 and 9.8 U/ml, giving productivities of 10, 214 and 24 U l−1h−1, respectively. The cellulase mixture, partially purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation, was able to hydrolyse delignified OPEFB fibres, converting about 68 % of the cellulosics to reducing sugars after 5 days.

Addition of sodium acetate to chemically defined MP2 medium was found to increase and stabilize solvent production by Clostridium beijerinckii BA101, a solvent-hyperproducing mutant derived from C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052. C. beijerinckii BA101 demonstrated a greater increase in solvent production than C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 when sodium acetate was added to MP2 medium. In 1-l batch fermentations, C. beijerinckii BA101 produced 32.6 g/l total solvents, with butanol at 20.9 g/l, when grown in MP2 medium containing 60 mM sodium acetate and 8% glucose. To our knowledge, these values represent the highest solvent and butanol concentrations produced by a solventogenic Clostridium strain when grown in batch culture.

In this paper, tests of an optimized membrane-stirrer geometry for bubble-free aeration of a plant cell suspension culture are described. Cell attachment and clogging of a previously described system [Piehl et al. (1988) Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 29:456–461] led to the development of a new stirrer. The volumetric oxygen transfer capacity has been measured in aqueous medium. The mass transfer coefficient, k l a, was 3.75 h−1 at 25 °C and at a stirrer speed of 34 rpm. The overall oxygen transfer capacity was investigated with a suspension culture of Aesculus hippocastanum. It was shown that the oxygen mass transfer was sufficient even at the maximum biomass of 10–12 g dry weight/l, which was obtained by using this system. Furthermore, special attention was given to medium components like C and N sources, to avoid growth limitation due to a shortage of nutrients.

 Poly[(R)-3-hydroxybutyric acid] (PHB) was produced at 37 °C by a recombinant Escherichia coli harboring the Alcaligenes eutrophus biosynthesis phbCAB genes in Luria-Bertani media containing glucose at 10–30 g/l at different pH values and the time-dependent changes in the molecular mass of PHB were studied. PHB polymers accumulated within cells while glucose was present in the medium. The number-average molecular mass of PHB decreased with time during the course of PHB accumulation, and the values for PHB were markedly dependent on the cultivation conditions of the E. coli, ranging from 0.5 MDa to 20 MDa. Under specific conditions (pH 6.0), E. coli produced PHB with an extremely high molecular mass (20 MDa). It has been suggested that a chain-transfer agent is generated in E. coli cells during the accumulation of PHB.

The wet organic fraction of household wastes was digested anaerobically at 37 °C and 55 °C. At both temperatures the volatile solids loading was increased from 1 g l−1 day−1 to 9.65 g l−1 day−1, by reducing the nominal hydraulic retention time from 93 days to 19 days. The volatile solids removal in the reactors at both temperatures for the same loading rates was in a similar range and was still 65% at 19 days hydraulic retention time. Although more biogas was produced in the thermophilic reactor, the energy conservation in methane was slightly lower, because of a lower methane content, compared to the biogas of the mesophilic reactor. The slightly lower amount of energy conserved in the methane of the thermophilic digester was presumably balanced by the hydrogen that escaped into the gas phase and thus was no longer available for methanogenesis. In the thermophilic process, 1.4 g/l ammonia was released, whereas in the mesophilic process only 1 g/l ammonia was generated, presumably from protein degradation. Inhibition studies of methane production and glucose fermentation revealed a K i (50%) of 3 g/l and 3.7 g/l ammonia (equivalent to 0.22 g/l and 0.28 g/l free NH3) at 37 °C and a K i (50%) of 3.5 g/l and 3.4 g/l ammonia (equivalent to 0.69 g/l and 0.68 g/l free NH3) at 55 °C. This indicated that the thermophilic flora tolerated at least twice as much of free NH3 than the mesophilic flora and, furthermore, that the thermophilic flora was able to degrade more protein. The apparent ammonia concentrations in the mesophilic and in the thermophilic biowaste reactor were low enough not to inhibit glucose fermentation and methane production of either process significantly, but may have been high enough to inhibit protein degradation. The data indicated either that the mesophilic and thermophilic protein degraders revealed a different sensitivity towards free ammonia or that the mesophilic population contained less versatile protein degraders, leaving more protein undegraded.

The effect of some culture variables in the production of β-galactosidase from Escherichia coli in Bacillus subtilis was evaluated. The lacZ gene was expressed in B. subtilis using the regulatory region of the subtilisin gene aprE. The host contained also the hpr2 and degU32 mutations, which are known to overexpress the aprE gene. We found that, when this overproducing B. subtilis strain was grown in mineral medium supplemented with glucose (MMG), β-galactosidase production was partially growth-associated, as 40%–60% of the maximum enzyme activity was produced before the onset of the stationary phase. In contrast, when a complex medium was used, β-galactosidase was produced only at low levels during vegetative growth, whereas it accumulated to high levels during early stationary phase. Compared with the results obtained in complex media, a 20% increase in specific β-galactosidase activity in MMG supplemented with 11.6 g/l glucose was obtained. On the 1-l fermenter scale, a threefold increase in volumetric β-galactosidase activity was obtained when the glucose concentration was varied from 11 g/l to 26 g/l. In addition, glucose feeding during the stationary phase resulted in a twofold increase in volumetric enzyme activity as cellular lysis was prevented. Finally, we showed that oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide evolution rates can be used for on-line determination of the onset of stationary phase, glucose depletion and biomass concentration.

This study reports the effects of various nutritional and environmental factors on sporulation and biomass of Paecilomyces lilacinus IPC‐P. These factors included carbon and nitrogen sources, carbon‐to‐nitrogen ratios, mineral elements and vitamins together with water potentials, temperatures, dark/light cycles and pH. On the basis of these results, together with a ‘two‐step’ cultivation and orthogonal method, the culture conditions for sporulation of this fungus were optimized. The spore suspension was inoculated on a basal medium (sucrose 19.00 g/l, soy peptone 4.06 g/l, K2HPO4 1.00 g/l, KCl 0.50 g/l, MgSO4 0.50 g/l, FeSO4 0.01 g/l, agar 13.00 g/l) for 4 days, before being transferred to a sporulation medium (dextrin 2.27 g/l, urea 2.13 g/l, CaCl2 3.00 g/l, ZnSO4·7H2O 0.01 g/l, agar 13.00 g/l) for a further 4 days under the following environmental conditions: ?3.9 MPa/pH 7/light 24 h/temperature 29°C; these conditions were altered to ?0.3 MPa/pH 6/light 24 h/temperature 23°C in order to obtain better biomass yields. The data presented provide information on the nutrient and environmental requirements of this fungus, which will be essential for its commercial production.  相似文献

In our screening program for microorganisms that are able to metabolize eugenol, the main component of the essential oil of the clove tree Syzigium aromaticum (sy. Eugenia cariophyllus), we found a new Pseudomonas sp. that produces several substituted methoxyphenols when eugenol is fed to the culture. A taxonomic characterization of this new organism has been performed. Examples of the biotransformation products, produced in high amounts, were vanillic acid with 3.25 g/l within 99 h, ferulic acid with 5.8 g/l within 75 h and coniferyl alcohol with 3.22 g/l within 47.5 h. By changing the culture conditions the ratio of the different metabolites could be varied. Based on these results a scheme for the degradation of eugenol by this strain has been established.

In order to produce sophorolipids from whey, thereby lowering the lactose content and biological oxygen demand, a two-step batch cultivation process was developed including medium sterilization by filtration. In the first step, whey was sterilized by a combination of crossflow and sterile filtration. Because the sophorolipid-producing yeast Candida bombicola ATCC 22214 was not able to use lactose as a carbon source directly, the oleaginous yeast Cryptococcus curvatus ATCC 20509 was grown on deproteinized whey concentrates (DWC). With 1: 1 diluted DWC-20, lactose was consumed as the carbon source and biomass (24 g/l dry weight content) as well as single-cell oil (SCO, 10 g/l) were produced. The cultivation broth was disrupted with a glass bead mill and it served as medium for growth (29 g cell dry mass/l) and sophorolipid production (12 g/l) of the yeast C. bombicola.

Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of a phalaenopsis orchid   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
 Genetically transformed plants of a phalaenopsis orchid [Doritaenopsis Coral Fantasy×Phalaenopsis (Baby Hat×Ann Jessica)] were regenerated after cocultivation of cell clumps with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains LBA4404 (pTOK233) and EHA101 (pIG121Hm) that harbored genes for β-glucuronidase (GUS) and hygromycin resistance. The efficiency of transformation was markedly increased by 10 h cocultivation of cell clumps with A. tumefaciens that had been induced with 200 μm acetosyringone, and by inclusion of 500 μm acetosyringone in the cocultivation medium. Hygromycin-resistant cell clusters (0.5–3 mm in diameter) were selected from the infected cell clumps after 4–6 weeks of culture on agar (8 g/l)-solidified new Dogashima medium (NDM) containing 20 g/l sucrose, 0.1 mg/l naphthaleneacetic acid, 1.0 mg/l benzyladenine (BA), 50 mg/l hygromycin and 300 mg/l cefotaxime. The cell clusters proliferated 4 weeks after transfer onto the same medium. To induce callus greening, the carbon source was changed from sucrose to maltose. The green calli obtained produced protocorm-like bodies (PLBs) after 4 weeks of culture on phytohormone-free NDM medium. Regeneration of transgenic plantlets was enhanced by incubating PLBs on NDM medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/l abscisic acid, followed by partial desiccation for 10–30 min. Successful transformation was confirmed by histochemical GUS assay, PCR analysis and Southern hybridization of transformants. With this transformation system, more than 100 hygromycin-resistant phalaenopsis plantlets were produced about 7 months following infection of the cell aggregates.

The purpose of the following research was to improve the original Celsior solution in order to obtain a higher degree of stability and effectiveness. The solution was modified by the addition of selected antioxidants such as vitamin C, cysteine, and fumaric acid in the following concentrations: 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 mmol/l. The solution’s stability was estimated using an accelerated stability test based on changes in histidine concentrations in the solution using Pauly’s method for determining concentrations. Elevated temperatures, the factor accelerating substances’ decomposition reaction rate, were used in the tests. The research was conducted at four temperatures at intervals of 10°C: 60 ± 0.2°C, 70 ± 0.2°C, 80 ± 0.2°C, and 90 ± 0.2°C. It was stated that the studied substances’ decomposition occurred in accordance with the equation for first-order reactions. The function of the logarithmic concentration (log%C) over time was revealed to be rectilinear. This dependence was used to determine the kinetics of decomposition reaction rate parameters (the rate constant of decomposition k, activation energy E a, and frequency factor A). On the basis of these parameters, the stability of the modified solution was estimated at +5°C. The results obtained show that the proposed antioxidants have a significant effect on lengthening the Celsior solution’s stability. The best results were reached when combining two antioxidants: vitamin C and cysteine in 0.5 mmol/l concentrations. As a result, the Celsior solution’s stability was lengthened from 22 to 299 days, which is 13.5 times. Vitamin C at a concentration of 0.5 mmol/l increased the solution’s stability by 5.2 times (t 90 = 115 days), cysteine at a concentration of 0.5 mmol/l caused a 4.4 times stability increase (t 90 = 96 days), and fumaric acid at a concentration of 0.5 mmol/l extended the stability by 2.1 times (t 90 = 48 days) in relation to the original solution.  相似文献

Early blight (Alternaria solani) is an important disease causing severe damage in tomato. The eleven isolates of A. solani designated as So, Dh, Sh, Va-5, Ka, Ma, Hy, Ba-1, My, Va-3 and Mi were collected from different agroclimatic conditions and these isolates were characterized for cultural, morphological, pathogenic and molecular variations. The pigmentation varied from yellow, brown, black, brownish to greenish black in isolates of A. solani on potato dextrose agar medium. In general, radial growth of all isolates ranged between 14.9 mm and 32.2 mm on PDA and 24.3 mm to 53.7 mm on three selective media i.e., ASM, V-8 juice agar and V-8 juice agar (synthetic) on the fourth day. The fastest radial growth was recorded in the So isolate and slowest in the Ka isolate on PDA, while isolates Dh, Ba-1 and Va-3 were recorded to be faster in growth on ASM, V-8 juice agar and V-8 juice agar (synthetic) medium. The thickness of conidiogenous hyphae varied between 1.17 μ and 9.56 μ, with maximum in the Va-5 and Ma isolates. Most of the isolates showed smooth mycelial growth with circular and irregular margin and without concentric zonation. Sporulation was not found in any of the isolates on four different nutrient media, whereas conidiogenous hyphal length was observed in V-8 juice agar medium only. Based on the pathogenicity, isolates of A. solani were rated as virulent or less virulent based on percentage disease incidence data. Molecular variability studies were also done to find out the best annealing temperature and eighty-six primers were screened to select for maximum polymorphism of DNA. The best annealing temperature was recorded between 32.5 °C and 34.0 °C for the pathogen, and most efficient amplification and polymorphism of DNA was found with random primer 5′-CGCGTTCCTG-3′.  相似文献

Screening for fungi intensively mineralizing 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Within a screening program, 91 fungal strains belonging to 32 genera of different ecological and taxonomic groups (wood- and litter-decaying basidiomycetes, saprophytic micromycetes) were tested for their ability to metabolize and mineralize 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT). All these strains metabolized TNT rapidly by forming monoaminodinitrotoluenes (AmDNT). Micromycetes produced higher amounts of AmDNT than did wood- and litter-decaying basidiomycetes. A significant mineralization of [14C]TNT was only observed for certain wood- and litter-decaying basidiomycetes. The most active strains, Clitocybula dusenii TMb12 and Stropharia rugosa-annulata DSM11372 mineralized 42 % and 36 % respectively of the initial added [14C]TNT (100 μM corresponding to 4.75 μCi/l) to 14CO2 within 64 days. Micromycetes (deuteromycetes, ascomycetes, zygomycetes) proved to be unable to mineralize [14C]TNT significantly.
