 Enzymatic hydrolysis of corncob and ethanol fermentation from cellulosic hydrolysate were investigated. After corncob was pretreated by 1% H2SO4 at 108 °C for 3 h, the cellulosic residue was hydrolyzed by cellulase from Trichoderma reesei ZU-02 and the hydrolysis yield was 67.5%. Poor cellobiase activity in T. reesei cellulase restricted the conversion of cellobiose to glucose, and the accumulation of cellobiose caused severe feedback inhibition to the activities of β-1,4-endoglucanase and β-1,4-exoglucanase in cellulase system. Supplementing cellobiase from Aspergillus niger ZU-07 greatly reduced the inhibitory effect caused by cellobiose, and the hydrolysis yield was improved to 83.9% with enhanced cellobiase activity of 6.5 CBU g−1 substrate. Fed-batch hydrolysis process was started with a batch hydrolysis containing 100 g l−1 substrate, with cellulosic residue added at 6 and 12 h twice to get a final substrate concentration of 200 g l−1. After 60 h of reaction, the reducing sugar concentration reached 116.3 g l−1 with a hydrolysis yield of 79.5%. Further fermentation of cellulosic hydrolysate containing 95.3 g l−1 glucose was performed using Saccharomyces cerevisiae 316, and 45.7 g l−1 ethanol was obtained within 18 h. The research results are meaningful in fuel ethanol production from agricultural residue instead of grain starch.  相似文献

Fermentation kinetics of growth and β-carotene production by Rhodotorula glutinis DM28 in batch and continuous cultures using fermented radish brine, a waste generated from fermented vegetable industry, as a cultivation medium were investigated. The suitable brine concentration for β-carotene production by R. glutinis DM28 was 30 g l?1. Its growth and β-carotene production obtained by batch culture in shake flasks were 2.2 g l?1 and 87 μg l?1, respectively, while, in a bioreactor were 2.6 g l?1 and 186 μg l?1, respectively. Furthermore, its maximum growth rate and β-carotene productivity in continuous culture obtained at the dilution rate of 0.24 h?1 were 0.3 g l?1 h?1 and 19 μg l?1 h?1, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the batch. Therefore, improved growth rate and β-carotene productivity of R. glutinis in fermented radish brine could be accomplished by continuous cultivation.  相似文献

In this work, straw hydrolysates were used to produce succinic acid by Actinobacillus succinogenes CGMCC1593 for the first time. Results indicated that both glucose and xylose in the straw hydrolysates were utilized in succinic acid production, and the hydrolysates of corn straw was better than that of rice or wheat straw in anaerobic fermentation of succinic acid. However, cell growth and succinic acid production were inhibited when the initial concentration of sugar, which was from corn straw hydrolysate (CSH), was higher than 60 g l?1. In batch fermentation, 45.5 g l?1 succinic acid concentration and 80.7% yield were attained after 48 h incubation with 58 g l?1 of initial sugar from corn straw hydrolysate in a 5-l stirred bioreactor. While in fed-batch fermentation, concentration of succinic acid achieved 53.2 g l?1 at a rate of 1.21 g l?1 h?1 after 44 h of fermentation. Our work suggested that corn straw could be utilized for the economical production of succinic acid by A. succinogenes.  相似文献

Pseudomonas putida 33 wild strain, subjected to gamma ray mutagenesis and designated as P. putida 300-B mutant was used as microbial rhamnolipid-producer by using distant carbon sources (viz. hydrocarbons, waste frying oils ‘WFOs’, vegetable oil refinery wastes and molasses) in the minimal media under shake flask conditions. The behavior of glucose as co-substrate and growth initiator was examined. The 300-B mutant strain showed its ability to grow on all the substrates tested and produced rhamnolipid surfactants to different extents however; soybean and corn WFOs were observed to be preferred carbon sources followed by kerosene and paraffin oils, respectively. The best cell biomass (3.5 g l−1) and rhamnolipids yield (4.1 g l−1) were obtained with soybean WFO as carbon source and glucose as growth initiator under fed-batch cultivation showing an optimum specific growth rate (μ) of 0.272 h−1, specific product yield (qp) of 0.318 g g−1 h and volumetric productivity (PV) of 0.024 g l−1 h. The critical micelle concentration of its culture supernatant was observed to be 91 mg rhamnolipids l−1 and surface tension as 31.2 mN m−1.  相似文献

d-Lactic acid and pyruvic acid are two important building block intermediates. Production of d-lactic acid and pyruvic acid from racemic lactic acid by biotransformation is economically interesting. Biocatalyst prepared from 9 g dry cell wt l?1 of Pseudomonas stutzeri SDM could catalyze 45.00 g l?1 dl-lactic acid into 25.23 g l?1 d-lactic acid and 19.70 g l?1 pyruvic acid in 10 h. Using a simple ion exchange process, d-lactic acid and pyruvic acid were effectively separated from the biotransformation system. Co-production of d-lactic acid and pyruvic acid by enantioselective oxidation of racemic lactic acid is technically feasible.  相似文献

Cheese whey powder (CWP) solution with different CWP or sugar concentrations was fermented to ethanol in a continuous fermenter using pure culture of Kluyveromyces marxianus (DSMZ 7239). Sugar concentration of the feed CWP solution varied between 55 and 200 g l−1 while the hydraulic residence time (HRT) was kept constant at 54 h. Ethanol formation, sugar utilization and biomass formation were investigated as functions of the feed sugar concentration. Percent sugar utilization and biomass concentrations decreased and the effluent sugar concentration increased with increasing feed sugar concentrations especially for the feed sugar contents above 100 g l−1. Ethanol concentration and productivity (DP) increased with increasing feed sugar up to 100 g l−1 and then decreased with further increases in the feed sugar content. The highest ethanol concentration (3.7%, v v−1) and productivity (0.54 gE l−1 h−1) were obtained with the feed sugar content of 100 g l−1 or 125 g l−1. The ethanol yield coefficient (YP/S) was also maximum (0.49 gE gS−1) when the feed sugar was between 100 and 125 g l−1. The growth yield coefficient (YX/S) decreased steadily from 0.123 to 0.063 gX gS−1 when the feed sugar increased from 55 to 200 g l−1 due to adverse effects of high sugar contents on yeast growth. The optimal feed sugar concentration maximizing the ethanol productivity and sugar utilization was between 100 and 125 g l−1 under the specified experimental conditions.  相似文献

Maximal activity of the immobilized d-psicose 3-epimerase from Agrobacterium tumefaciens on Duolite A568 beads was achieved at pH 9.0 and 55 °C with borate, and at pH 8.5 and 50 °C without borate. The half-lives of the immobilized enzyme at 50 °C with and without borate were increased 4.2- and 128-fold compared to that of the free enzyme without borate, respectively. The immobilized enzyme with borate produced 441 g l?1 psicose from 700 g l?1 fructose at pH 9.0 and 55 °C, whereas 193 g l?1 psicose was produced without borate at pH 8.5 and 50 °C after 120 min in a batch reaction. The immobilized enzyme in a packed-bed bioreactor without borate was produced continuously 325 g l?1 psicose from 500 g l?1 fructose at a dilution rate of 1.62 h?1 over a 236 h period with productivity of 527 g l?1 h?1 while that without borate produced 146 g l?1 psicose at 4.15 h?1 over a 384-h period with productivity of 606 g l?1 h?1. The operational half-lives of the enzyme with and without borate in the bioreactor were 601 and 645 h, respectively. In the present study, psicose was produced stably with high productivity using the immobilized d-psicose 3-epimerase in the presence of borate.  相似文献

Isolation of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) strain or its cry gene encoding insecticidal crystal protein (ICP) with specific toxicity is of great importance to biological control of insect pests. In this study, by screening 66 strains of Bt isolated from soil samples collected in Shandong Province, China, a new cry8-type gene from Bt strain B-JJX was identified via PCR-RFLP method. This novel gene, cry8Ab1, was cloned from the Bt strain B-JJX and expressed in an acrystalliferous mutant strain HD-73?. The open reading frame of the cry8Ab1 gene consists of 3543 bp with a G + C content of 37.99% and encodes a protein of 1180 amino acids with a putative MW of 133.3 kDa which was confirmed by SDS-PAGE analysis. The Cry8Ab1 protein was expressed and released as spherical parasporal crystals from Bt acrystalliferous mutant strain HD-73? along with the presence of spores. In bioassays, this protein was toxic to 3-day-old larvae of the scarabaeid pests, Holotrichia oblita and H. parallela, with an LC50 of 5.72 and 2.00 μg toxin g?1 soil, respectively. The results are in accordance with the insecticidal activities of the original Bt strain B-JJX, which had an LC50 of 1.72 and 0.96 μg toxin g?1 soil against H. oblita and H. parallela, respectively.  相似文献

A bacterial strain, CK3, with remarkable ability to decolorize the reactive textile dye Reactive Red 180, was isolated from the activated sludge collected from a textile mill. Phenotypic characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rDNA sequence indicated that the bacterial strain belonged to the genus Citrobacter. Bacterial isolate CK3 showed a strong ability to decolorize various reactive textile dyes, including both azo and anthraquinone dyes. Anaerobic conditions with 4 g l?1 glucose, pH = 7.0 and 32 °C were considered to be the optimum decolorizing conditions. Citrobacter sp. CK3 grew well in a high concentration of dye (200 mg l?1), resulting in approximately 95% decolorization extent in 36 h, and could tolerate up to 1000 mg l?1 of dye. UV–vis analyses and colorless bacterial cells suggested that Citrobacter sp. CK3 exhibited decolorizing activity through biodegradation, rather than inactive surface adsorption. It is the first time that a bacterial strain of Citrobacter sp. has been reported with decolorizing ability against both azo and anthraquinone dyes. High decolorization extent and facile conditions show the potential for this bacterial strain to be used in the biological treatment of dyeing mill effluents.  相似文献

The combined effects of initial sucrose and initial Remazol Turquoise Blue-G (RTBG) reactive dye concentrations on the specific growth rate and dye bioaccumulation efficiency of Candida utilis was investigated and optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) in this study. A 22 full factorial central composite design was successfully used for experimental design and analyses of the results. Two numerical correlations fitted to a second-order quadratic equation were obtained to estimate the responses of specific growth rate and dye uptake yield. The statistical analysis indicated that both the microbial growth and removal yield of dye enhanced with raising sucrose concentration up to 15 g l?1 and diminished with the increase in initial RTBG dye concentration up to approximately 500 mg l?1 due to inhibition caused by high concentrations of RTBG dye. The optimum combination predicted via RSM confirmed that C. utilis was capable of bioaccumulating RTBG with the maximum uptake yield of 82.0% in 15 g l?1 sucrose and 50 mg l?1 dye containing growth medium.  相似文献

Assemblages of anaerobic sulphidogenic microorganisms were isolated from soil polluted by oil-derived products and grown using the microcosms method. The cultures were grown in minimal and Postgate media with phosphogypsum (PG) as the sole electron acceptor and with lactate, casein or lactose as the sole carbon source. The most effective was the assemblage in Postgate medium with lactose as the sole carbon source. A reduction of 980 mg COD l?1 (reduction of about 40%) and 790 mg SO42? l?1 (reduction of 53% of phosphogypsum introduced to the medium) was noted in the culture. The lowest activity was observed for minimal medium with lactose as sole carbon source (reduction of 4.4% COD and 40% PG). The selected assemblage became an inoculum for a culture in Postgate, minimal and/or distilled water medium with PG (6 g l?1) and cheese whey (2.5 and 4.5 g l?1).A percentage reduction of COD and SO42? of PG was observed in all cultures. After growth, the residues were weighed and in all cases a distinct mass reduction of PG was observed in comparison to the 6 g l?1 introduced to the medium. Diffractometric studies of the residues confirmed the presence of calcite and apatite. The presence of these mineral phases in the residues allows their application as agricultural fertilisers.  相似文献

The toxic effects of Aroclor 1254 (0.05, 0.5, 5 and 50 μg l?1) on scallop (Chlamys farreri) immune system in vivo were studied. The results showed that Aroclor 1254 had significant toxic effect on the parameters tested in this paper (P < 0.05). The total number of haemocytes, the proportion of granulocytes, phagocytosis in all groups as well as the lysosomal membrane stability (LMS) in 5, 50 μg l?1 and bacteriolytic activity 0.5, 5, 50 μg l?1 treatments decreased significantly, while the proportion of hyalinocytes and the production of O2- in all treatments remarkably increased during the sampling time and tended to be stable gradually after 6–15 d. The bacteriolytic activity in 0.05 μg l?1 treatments, LMS in 0.05, 0.5 μg l?1 groups and the DNA damage (comet ratios and arbitrary values) in all treatments increased at the beginning of exposure and reached their peaks on day 1, day 1, day 6 and day 3, following that they all decreased gradually and became stable after 9–15 d. When the indices reached stability, except for DNA damage was higher than controls, the others were all significantly lower than those of controls (P < 0.05). Thus, Aroclor 1254 has evident toxic effects on scallop immune system, which supports the view that a relationship exists between pollution and immunomodulation in aquatic organisms. Also it supports the speculation that the PCBs pollution is one of the important reasons of the mass mortality of the C. farreri.  相似文献

The effect of long-term (30 days) exposure to PCZ (0.2, 50, and 500 μg l?1) on intestine-related biochemical markers in rainbow trout was investigated. Multiple biomarkers were measured, including digestive enzymes (proteolytic enzymes and amylase), antioxidant responses (TBARS, CP, SOD, CAT, GR and GPx) and energy metabolic parameters (RNA/DNA ratio, Na+-K+-ATPase). Exposure to 500 μg l?1 PCZ led to significantly inhibited (p < 0.01) proteolytic enzyme and amylase activity. Activities of the antioxidant enzymes SOD, CAT, and GPx gradually increased at lower PCZ concentrations (0.2 and 50 μg l?1). At the highest concentration (500 μg l?1), oxidative stress was apparent as significant higher (p < 0.05) lipid peroxidation and protein carbonyls, associated with an inhibition of antioxidant enzymes activity. Moreover, energy metabolic parameters (RNA/DNA ratio, Na+-K+-ATPase) were significantly inhibited (p < 0.01) in the intestines of fish exposed to 500 μg l?1 PCZ, compared with controls. We suggest that long-term exposure to PCZ could result in several responses in intestine-related biochemical markers, which potentially could be used as indicators for monitoring residual PCZ present in the aquatic environment.  相似文献

Cr(VI) removal by Scenedesmus incrassatulus was characterized in a continuous culture system using a split-cylinder internal-loop airlift photobioreactor fed continuously with a synthetic effluent containing 1.0 mg Cr(VI) l?1 at dilution rate (D) of 0.3 d?1. At steady state, there was a small increase (6%) on the dry biomass (DB) concentration of Cr(VI)-treated cultures compared with the control culture. 1.0 mg Cr(VI) l?1 reduced the photosynthetic pigments content and altered the cellular morphology, the gain in dry weight was not affected. At steady state, Cr(VI) removal efficiency was 43.5 ± 1.0% and Cr(VI) uptake was 1.7 ± 0.1 mg Cr(VI) g?1 DB. The system reached a specific metal removal rate of 458 μg Cr(VI) g?1 DB d?1, and a volumetric removal rate of 132 μg Cr(VI) l?1 d?1.  相似文献

A developed consortium-GR, consisting of Proteus vulgaris NCIM-2027 (PV) and Micrococcus glutamicus NCIM-2168 (MG), completely decolorized an azo dye Scarlet R under static anoxic condition with an average decolorization rate of 16,666 μg h?1; which is much faster than that of the pure cultures (PV, 3571 μg h?1; MG, 2500 μg h?1). Consortium-GR gave best decolorization performance with nearly complete mineralization of Scarlet R (over 90% TOC and COD reduction) within 3 h, much shorter relative to the individual strains. Induction in the riboflavin reductase and NADH–DCIP reductase was observed in the consortium, suggesting the involvement of these enzymes during the fast decolorization process. The FTIR and GC–MS analysis showed that 1,4-benzenediamine was formed during decolorization/degradation of Scarlet R by consortium-GR. Phytotoxicity studies revealed no toxicity of the biodegraded products of Scarlet R by consortium-GR. In addition, consortium-GR applied for mixture of industrial dyes showed 88% decolorization under static condition with significant reduction in TOC (62%) and COD (68%) within 72 h, suggesting potential application of this microbial consortium in bioremediation of dye-containing wastewater.  相似文献

The bacterium Micrococcus luteus BN56, isolated from soil, was found to produce glycolipid biosurfactants when grown on n-hexadecane as the sole carbon source. The purified glycolipids were characterized using 1H, 13C, 1H COSY NMR-spectroscopy and ESI-MS spectrometry analyses. The two main products were identified as trehalose tetraesters with molecular mass of 876 and 848 g mol?1. The purified products reduced the surface tension of water from 72 to 24.1 mN m?1 and the interfacial tension between water and hexadecane from 43.0 to 1.7 mN m?1. The CMC of these biosurfactants was found to be 25 mg l?1. The strain formed stable emulsions with hydrocarbon substrates and was suggested that the hydrophobic cells acted as emulsion-stabilizing agents. The results demonstrate that the strain M. luteus BN56 may be well suited for bioremediation of oil-contaminated environments.  相似文献

There are currently few successful examples of using straw hemicellulose as a carbon source in the fermentation industry. In this paper, hemicellulose hydrolysates were recovered from steam-exploded wheat straw (SEWS) and used to produce microbial oil. The effects of the steam explosion treatment conditions, the elution temperature and the ratio of elution water to SEWS on sugar recovery were examined. A broth with 3.8 g l?1 of reducing sugar and 22.3 g l?1 of total soluble sugars was obtained with a 10-fold excess (w/w) of water at 40 °C to wash the SEWS treated under steam explosion conditions at 200 °C for 5 min. This broth was used to produce microbial oil by the oleaginous fungus Microsphaeropsis sp., which was able to secrete xylanase to degrade oligosaccharides from straw hemicellulose and accumulate microbial oil. Under optimized conditions, the oil concentration was 2.6 g l?1. The yield of oil from sugar consumed was 0.14 g g?1. The microbial oil produced by this research could be used as feedstock for biodiesel production because the microbial oil was primarily composed of neutral lipids. This research establishes a novel protocol for microbial oil production from straw hemicellulose.  相似文献

A metabolically engineered Escherichia coli has been constructed for the production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB-co-4HB)] from unrelated carbon sources. Genes involved in succinate degradation in Clostridium kluyveri and P(3HB) accumulation pathway of Ralstonia eutropha were co-expressed for the synthesis of the above copolyester. E. coli native succinate semialdehyde dehydrogenase genes sad and gabD were both deleted for eliminating succinate formation from succinate semialdehyde, which functioned to enhance the carbon flux to 4HB biosynthesis. The metabolically engineered E. coli produced 9.4 g l?1 cell dry weight containing 65.5% P(3HB-co-11.1 mol% 4HB) using glucose as carbon source in a 48 h shake flask growth. The presence of 1.5–2 g l?1 α-ketoglutarate or 1.0 g l?1 citrate enhanced the 4HB monomer content from 11.1% to more than 20%. In a 6 l fermentor study, a 23.5 g l?1 cell dry weight containing 62.7% P(3HB-co-12.5 mol% 4HB) was obtained after 29 h of cultivation. To the best of our knowledge, this study reports the highest 4HB monomer content in P(3HB-co-4HB) produced from unrelated carbon sources.  相似文献

A β-glucosidase gene from Putranjiva roxburghii (PRGH1) was heterologously expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to enable growth on cellobiose. The recombinant enzyme was secreted to the culture medium, purified and biochemically characterized. The enzyme is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of ∼68 kDa and exhibited enzymatic activity with β‐linked aryl substrates like pNP-Fuc, pNP-Glc, pNP-Gal and pNP-Cel with catalytic efficiency in that order. Significant enzyme activity was observed for cellobiose, however the enzyme activity was decreased with increase in chain length of glycan substrates. Using cellobiose as substrate, the enzyme showed optimal activity at pH 5.0 and 65 °C. The enzyme was thermostable up to 75 °C for 60 min. The enzyme showed significant resistance towards both glucose and ethanol induced inhibition. The recombinant S. cerevisiae strain showed advantages in cell growth, glucose and bio-ethanol production over the native strain with cellobiose as sole carbon source. In simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) experiments, the recombinant strain was used for bio-ethanol production from two different cellulosic biomass sources. At the end of the SSF, we obtained 9.47 g L−1 and 14.32 g L−1 of bio-ethanol by using carboxymethyl cellulose and pre-treated rice straw respectively. This is first report where a β-glucosidase gene from plant origin has been expressed in S. cerevisiae and used in SSF.  相似文献

Twenty-five aerobic phenol-degrading bacteria, isolated from different environmental samples on phenol agar after several subcultures in phenol broth, utilized phenol (0.2 g l−1) within 24 h, but removal of phenol was more rapid when other carbon sources were also present. A microtitre plate method was developed to determine growth rate, biofilm formation and respiratory activity of the strains isolated. Pseudomonas putida strains C5 and D6 showed maximum growth (as O.D. at 600 nm), P. putida D6 and unidentified bacterial strain M1 were more stable at high concentrations of phenol (0.8 g l−1), and P. putida C5 formed the greatest amount of biofilm in 0.5 g phenol l−1 medium. Measurement of dehydrogenase activity as reduction of triphenyl tetrazolium chloride supported data on growth rate and biofilm formation. The microtitre plate method provided a selective method for detection of the best phenol degrading and biofilm-forming microorganisms, and was also a rapid, convenient means of studying the effect of phenol concentration on growth rate and biofilm formation.  相似文献
