Bacillus atrophaeus’ spores are used in the preparation of bioindicators to monitor the dry heat, ethylene oxide, and plasma sterilization processes and in tests to assess sterilizing products. Earlier production methods involved culture in chemically defined medium to support sporulation with the disadvantage of requiring an extended period of time (14 days) besides high cost of substrates. The effect of cultivation conditions by solid-state fermentation (SSF) was investigated aiming at improving the cost–productivity relation. Initial SSF parameters such as the type of substrate were tested. Process optimization was carried out using factorial experimental designs and response surface methodology in which the influence of different variables—particle size, moisture content, incubation time, pH, inoculum size, calcium sources, and medium composition—was studied. The results have suggested that soybean molasses and sugarcane bagasse are potential substrate and support, respectively, contributing to a 5-day reduction in incubation time. Variables which presented significant effects and optimum values were mean particle size (1.0 mm), moisture content (93%), initial substrate pH (8.0), and water as a solution base. The high-yield spore production was about 3 logs higher than the control and no significant difference in dry heat resistance was observed.  相似文献

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.  相似文献

High concentration of glycerol was used as the sole carbon source for efficient production of Monacolin K (MK) by solid-state fermentation (SSF) of Monascus purpureus 9901 using agricultural residue (bagasse), as an inert carrier. A comparative study showed that MK production in SSF was about 5.5 times higher than that of submerged fermentation when 26 % of glycerol was used, which may be due to the formation of glycerol concentration gradients in the inert carrier and less catabolite repression in SSF. For enhancement of MK yield in SSF, the effects of different influential variables, such as glycerol concentration, nitrogen source and its concentration, initial moisture content, inoculum size and particle size of bagasse, were systematically examined. All the factors mentioned above had an effect on the MK production in SSF to some extent. The maximal yield of MK (12.9 mg/g) was achieved with 26 % glycerol, 5 % soybean meal, 51 % initial moisture content, 20 % inoculum size and 1 mm particle size of bagasse. The results in this study may expand our understanding on the application of SSF using agricultural residue as carrier for production of useful microbial metabolites, especially the efficient conversion of high concentration of glycerol to MK by Monascus purpureus.  相似文献

Griseofulvin is a secondary metabolite produced from fungal species that have morphology suitable for solid-state fermentation (SSF). Reports on production of griseofulvin by SSF are scarce. The present work investigates SSF for griseofulvin production, optimization of its process parameters vis-à-vis the conventional submerged fermentation and its downstream processing from the same. Rice bran adjusted to an initial moisture content (IMC) of 50% (v/w) inoculated with 1 mL of a suspension of 10(6) spores/mL under agitation at 250 rpm containing the modified Czapek-Dox medium and additional 0.1% choline chloride as a precursor gave a yield of griseofulvin in 9 days that was comparable to submerged fermentation after 28 days. The yield of griseofulvin (microg/g dry biomass) was comparable in SSF and submerged fermentation. The biomass was estimated by estimation of chitin. Discussions on the effect of each parameter in SSF have also been included.  相似文献

The use of a large particle size (14 mm) support (sugar cane bagasse) increased penicillin production by solid state fermentation by 37 %, however this effect was due to a higher sugar concentration in this bagasse fraction. Cultures with closer packing densities (0.35) produced 20 % more penicillin. Agitation did not have a negative effect on production if moisture loss during the operation is restituted.  相似文献

Summary A solid state fermentation (SSF) process for the production of lignin peroxidase was optimized to enhance enzyme production by Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Optimization of the corncob SSF medium caused a significant reduction in fermentation time to give maximum lignin peroxidase yield. Supplementation of the SSF medium by low concentrations of peptone, yeast extract and Tween-80 enhanced lignin peroxidase production. Maximum yield of lignin peroxidase was 13.7 U/gds (units per gram dry substrate) noted after 5 days of SSF with 70% moisture and 20% (v/w) inoculum.  相似文献

Citric acid production by solid state fermentation using sugarcane bagasse   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
A solid state fermentation (SSF) method was used to produce citric acid by Aspergillus niger DS 1 using sugarcane bagasse as a carrier and sucrose or molasses based medium as a moistening agent. Initially bagasse and wheat bran were compared as carrier. Bagasse was the most suitable carrier, as it did not show agglomeration after moistening with medium, resulting in better heat and mass transfer during fermentation and higher product yield. Different parameters such as moisture content, particle size, sugar level and methanol concentration of the medium were optimised and 75% moisture level, 31.8 g sugar/100 g dry solid, 4% (v/w) methanol and particles of the size between 1.2 and 1.6 mm were found to be optimal. Sucrose and clarified and non-clarified molasses medium were also tested as moistening agents for SSF and under optimised conditions, 20.2, 19.8 and 17.9 g citric acid /100 g of dry solid with yield of 69.6, 64.5 and 62.4% (based on sugar consumed) was obtained in sucrose, clarified and non-clarified molasses medium respectively, after 9 days of fermentation.  相似文献

Aspergillus niger produced high levels of naringinase using easily available, inexpensive industrial waste residues such as rice bran, wheat bran, sugar cane bagasse, citrus peel, and press mud in solid‐state fermentation (SSF). Among these, rice bran was found to be the best substrate. Naringinase production was highest after 96 h of incubation at 27°C and at a substrate‐to‐moisture ratio of 1:1 w/v. Supplementation of the medium with 10% naringin caused maximum induction. An inoculum age of 72 h and an inoculum level of 15% resulted in maximum production of naringinase. Enzyme production was stimulated by the addition of nutrients such as naringin and peptone. Thus, A. niger produced a very high level of naringinase within a short time in solid‐state fermentation using inexpensive agro‐residues, a level that is much higher than reported for any other microbes.  相似文献

Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei CFTRI 2022 produced a higher concentration of lactic acid (5.27 g/100 g dry sugar-cane pressmud) in a solid-state fermentation (SSF) system as compared to L. helveticus CFTRI 2026 and Streptococcus thermophilus CFTRI 2034. The lactic acid production by L. casei subsp. casei CFTRI 2022 was found to be significantly influenced by the initial moisture content, initial pH and initial sugar concentration of the medium. Studies on four inert materials to reduce the initial sugar concentration in the medium showed the high potential of microcrystalline cellulose whereas the use of diatomaceous earth, acid-washed river sand and washed pith bagasse posed problems. The data indicate the potential of lactic acid production from sugar-cane pressmud in an SSF system.  相似文献

Alkalophilic Bacillus subtilis ASH produced high levels of xylanase using easily available inexpensive agricultural waste residues such as wheat bran, wheat straw, rice husk, sawdust, gram bran, groundnut and maize bran in solid-state fermentation (SSF). Among these, wheat bran was found to be best substrate. Xylanase production was highest after 72 h of incubation at 37 °C and at a substrate to moisture ratio of 1:2 (w/v). The inoculum level of 15% resulted in maximum production of xylanase. The enzyme production was stimulated by the addition of nutrients such as yeast extract, peptone and beef extract. In contrast, addition of glucose and xylose repressed the production of xylanase. The extent of repression by glucose (10%, w/v) was 81% and it was concentration-dependent. Supplementation of the medium with 4% xylose caused 59% repression. Under optimized conditions, xylanase production in SSF (8,964 U of xylanase/g dry wheat bran) was about twofold greater than in submerged fermentation. Thus, B. subtilis produced a very high level of xylanase in SSF using inexpensive agro-residues, a level which is much higher than that reported by any other bacterial isolate. Furthermore, the enzyme was produced at room temperature and with tap water without the addition of any mineral salt in SSF, leading to a marked decrease in the cost of xylanase production, which enhances its industrial potential.  相似文献

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: The impact of hydrothermal flowthrough (FT) pretreatment severity on pretreatment and solubilization performance metrics was evaluated for three milled feedstocks (corn stover, bagasse, and poplar) and two conversion systems (simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using yeast and fungal cellulase, and fermentation by Clostridium thermocellum). RESULTS: Compared to batch pretreatment, FT pretreatment consistently resulted in higher xylan recovery, higher removal of non-carbohydrate components and higher glucan solubilization by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). Xylan recovery was above 90% for FT pretreatment below 4.1 severity but decreased at higher severities, particularly for bagasse. Removal of non-carbohydrate components during FT pretreatment increased from 65% at low severity to 80% at high severity for corn stover, and from 40% to 70% for bagasse and poplar. Solids obtained by FT pretreatment were amenable to high conversion for all of the feedstocks and conversion systems examined. The optimal time and temperature for FT pretreatment on poplar were found to be 16 minutes and 210 oC. At these conditions, SSF glucan conversion was about 85%, 94% of the xylan was removed, and 62% of the non carbohydrate mass was solubilized. Solubilization of FT-pretreated poplar was compared for C. thermocellum fermentation (10% inoculum), and for yeast-fungal cellulase SSF (5% inoculum, cellulase loading of 5 and 10 FPU/g glucan supplemented with beta-glucosidase at 15 and 30 U/g glucan). Under the conditions tested, which featured low solids concentration, C. thermocellum fermentation achieved faster rates and more complete conversion of FT-pretreated poplar than did SSF. Compared to SSF, solubilization by C. thermocellum was 30% higher after 4 days, and was over twice as fast on ball-milled FT-pretreated poplar. CONCLUSIONS: Xylan removal trends were similar between feedstocks whereas glucan conversion trends were significantly different, suggesting that factors in addition to xylan removal impact amenability of glucan to enzymatic attack. Corn stover exhibited higher hydrolysis yields than bagasse or poplar, which could be due to higher removal of non-carbohydrate components. Xylan in bagasse is more easily degraded than xylan in corn stover and poplar. Conversion of FT-pretreated substrates at low concentration was faster and more complete for C.thermocellum than for SSF.  相似文献

This work reports on the optimization of PGA production by Bacillus licheniformis NCIM 2324 in solid state fermentation (SSF). In the first step, the one factor-at-a-time method was used to investigate the effect of solid substrates, initial moisture content, pH, and additional carbon and nitrogen source on PGA production; subsequently, response surface methodology (RSM) was used to establish the optimum concentrations of the key nutrients for higher PGA production. In the second step, the effects of amino acids and TCA cycle intermediates on the production of PGA were studied. The final optimized medium gave a maximum yield of 98.64 ± 1.61 mg gds−1 of PGA, which is significantly higher than that reported in the literature.  相似文献

Abstract

L-asparaginase is an important enzyme used in the pharmaceutical and food industry, which can be produced by different microorganisms using low cost feedstocks. In this work, sugarcane bagasse (SCB) was used as support for enzyme production in solid-state fermentation (SSF) by A. terreus. Initially, the influence of the variables carbon and nitrogen sources on the enzyme production was studied following an experimental design carried out in Erlenmeyer flasks. Statistical analysis indicated the use of 0.54% of starch, 0% of maltose, 0.44% of asparagine, and 1.14% of glutamine in the medium, resulting in enzyme activity per volume of produced extract of 120.723?U/L. Then, these conditions were applied in a horizontal column reactor filled with SCB, producing 105.3?U/L of enzyme activity. Therefore, the potential of extracellular L-asparaginase enzyme production in the column reactor using sugarcane bagasse as support was demonstrated and it represents a system that can favor large scale production.  相似文献

A comparative study of Penicillium simplicissimum morphology and lipase production was performed using solid-state (SSF) and submerged (SmF) fermentation. SSF was carried out on babassu cake as culture medium and SmF on a semi-synthetic medium and a medium based on suspended babassu cake grains. Yield of product on biomass, specific activity and conidia production were 3.3-, 1.3- and 2-fold higher in SSF. In SmF, the type of fungus growth differed according to the medium. Using the semi-synthetic medium, the fungus formed densely interwoven mycelial masses without conidia production, whereas using the babassu-based medium the fungus formed free mycelia and adhered to the surfaces of the grains, producing conidia. The results show that babassu cake induces conidiation in SmF. In SSF, the fungus not only grew on the surface of the grains, producing conidia abundantly, but also effectively colonized and penetrated the babassu particles. The high conidia production and lipase productivity in SSF may be related to the low availability of nutrients or to other stimuli associated with this type of fermentation. Thus, the high production of the thermostable P. simplicissimum lipase, using a non-supplemented, low-cost agro-industrial residue as the culture medium, demonstrates the biotechnological potential of SSF for the production of industrial enzymes.  相似文献

AIM: Production of L-lactic acid in solid-state fermentation (SSF) using polyurethane foam (PUF) as inert support moistened with cassava bagasse starch hydrolysate. METHODS AND RESULTS: PUF impregnated with cassava bagasse starch hydrolysate as major carbon source was used for the production of L-lactic acid using Lactobacillus casei in solid-state condition. The key parameters such as reducing sugar, inoculum size and nutrient mixture were optimized by statistical approach using response surface methodology. More than 95% conversion of sugars to lactic acid from 4 g reducing sugar per gram dry support was attained after 72 h when the inert substrate was moistened with 6.5 ml of nutrient solution and inoculated with 1.5 x 10(9) CFU of L. casei. While considering the lactate yield based on the solid support used, a very high yield of 3.88 g lactic acid per gram PUF was achieved. CONCLUSION: PUF acted as an excellent inert support for L. casei and provided a platform for the utilization of starchy waste hydrolysate in a lower reactor volume. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This is a cost effective cultivation of lactic acid bacteria for producing lactic acid from agro based waste products such as cassava bagasse. This is the first report on the exploitation of PUF as an inert support for lactate production under SSF.  相似文献

2-phenylethanol (2-PE) is a higher alcohol widely used in industry that can be obtained by solid-state fermentation (SSF) using low-cost raw materials. This report describes the 2-PE production potential of an indigenous Pichia kudriavzevii isolated from solid-state fermented sugarcane bagasse that possesses attractive characteristics for processing waste streams such as its low-pH tolerance, high growth rate and temperature resistance. Besides, 2-PE production was optimized in batch-SSF using sugarcane bagasse supplemented with l-phenylalanine as substrate. Full factorial design allowed identifying the pH adjustment, micronutrient addition, inoculum and co-substrate load effects, and response surface methodology served to identify the maximum production based on temperature, initial moisture content (MC0) and specific airflow rate (SAFR). While the pH adjustment and micronutrient addition did not affect the 2-PE production, temperature and MC0 resulted critical for the process. After optimization, the maximum 2-PE content was 27.2 ± 0.2 mg per gram of dry substrate at 31 °C, 76 % MC0 and 0.129 L h−1 g−1 SAFR. This result was 23.8 % higher than the sub-optimal condition, and it is the highest 2-PE production via SSF reported so far. These results confirm the ability of P. kudriavzevii for producing 2-PE, and its potential for using waste streams as substrate.  相似文献

Sugarcane bagasse--a residue from sugar and ethanol production from sugar cane--is a potential raw material for lignocellulosic ethanol production. This material is high in xylan content. A prerequisite for bioethanol production from bagasse is therefore that xylose is efficiently fermented to ethanol. In the current study, ethanolic fermentation of steam-pretreated sugarcane bagasse was assessed in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) set-up using either Saccharomyces cerevisiae TMB3400, a recombinant xylose utilizing yeast strain, or Pichia stipitis CBS6054, a naturally xylose utilizing yeast strain. Commercial cellulolytic enzymes were used and the content of water insoluble solids (WIS) was 5% or 7.5%. S. cerevisiae TMB3400 consumed all glucose and large fraction of the xylose in SSF. Almost complete xylose conversion could be achieved at 5% WIS and 32 degrees C. Fermentation did not occur with P. stipitis CBS6054 at pH 5.0. However, at pH 6.0, complete glucose conversion and high xylose conversion (>70%) was obtained. Microaeration was required for P. stipitis CBS6054. This was not necessary for S. cerevisiae TMB3400.  相似文献

Aims: To investigate the effect of pH regulation and nutrient concentration on cephalosporin C (CPC) production in solid‐state fermentation (SSF), using sugarcane bagasse as inert support, impregnated with liquid medium. Methods and Results: Solid‐state fermentation using different initial pH values, buffer and nutrient concentrations were performed. Results revealed pH as a key parameter in CPC SSF, as it hampered the antibiotic production not only above 7·8, but also under 6·4. Using initial pH lower than 6·8 and PB in the solid medium, it was possible to keep pH within the production range, increase the production period (from 1 to 3 days) and hence the CPC yield from 468 to 3200 μg gdm?1 (g?1 of dry matter). Conclusion: Parameters that help to keep pH in adequate values for CPC production in SSF, such as initial pH, buffering system and nutrient concentration, can greatly increase the production time and CPC yields in this fermentation technique. Significance and Impact of the Study: This is the first work on CPC production on impregnated support, and the only one revealing pH as a key parameter; it is also shown that high nutrient concentration can improve CPC yields in SSF as long as pH is kept under control.  相似文献

Penicillium chrysogenum low and high penicillin producing strains were transformed with a cosmid containing the whole penicillin biosynthetic gene cluster. The cosmid library was constructed in a newly developed cosmid vector, IztapaCos, which allows cloning and direct introduction of large DNA fragments in fungal recipients using phleomycin resistance as selection marker. The effect of increased gene dosage on penicillin production was evaluated both in submerged (SmF) and solid-state fermentation (SSF). Transformants from the low-producing strain Wis 54-1255, showed a 67.3 and 28.3% increased penicillin titer in SSF and SmF, respectively. In transformants from the high-producing strain P2-32 the increase was 92.9 and 158.4% respectively. Strain P2-32 already contains originally about 14 copies of the penicillin biosynthetic cluster, which shows that the strategy of increasing the gene dosage is still valid for high copy-number strains. The different behavior of the two strains in each type of culture is discussed, along with the practical implications for industrial penicillin production.  相似文献

Summary During the solid state fermentation (SSF) of cassava starch by Aspergillus niger estimations were made of total water, consumed water and the residual water remaining in small quantities after 23 h. A theoretical calculation based on the Ross equation showed that the water activity (a w) of the substrate decreased to 0.85 towards the end of the culture. Such low values were assumed to be inhibitory to growth. The a w of the substrate was increased when sugarcane bagasse was used as a high water retention capacity support. Higher growth rates and substrate conversion to biomass were obtained with this system, confirming that water availability is a critical factor in the SSF of starch substrates.Abbreviations A, B Experimental constants - a w Water activity - H2Oc Consumed water - H2OR Residual water - H2OT Total water - IDW Initial dry weight - IMC Initial moisture content - OUR Oxygen uptake rate - S Substrate dry weight - Sc Substrate conversion: consumed substrate/initial substrate - S H Amount of sugars hydrolysed - SSF Solid state fermentation - X Biomass dry weight - W * Amount of solids/g of water  相似文献
