Scale-up of hirudin production fromSaccharomyces cerevisiae from bench-scale to pilot-scale was carried out based on constant volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (K
L
a). Fed-batch mode of cultivation using step-wise feeding strategy of galactose was employed for the production of hirudin
in a 30-L and a 300-L pilot-scale fermentor. The final hirudin concentrations were achieved 390 mg/L and 286.1 mg/L, and the
volumetric productivities were 80.4% and 90.7% with the 30-L and 300-L fermentors, respectively, compared to the productivity
of the 5-L bench-scale fermentor. 相似文献

Summary The kinetics of a two-stage continuous fermentation of Clostridium acetobutylicum have been studied. The pH and the dilution rate have been shown to be two essential factors for process optimization. An increase in pH or dilution rate in the first stage decreased solvent production in the second fermentor. To achieve optimal solvent production, the pH had to be maintained at 4.5 in the first stage and between 4.5 and 5.0 in the second stage. Dilution rates of 0.08 h–1 and 0.04 h–1,respectively, in the first and second fermentors allowed a high solvent concentration. When the pH was maintained at 4.5 in each stage and when the dilution rates were 0.08 h–1 and 0.04 h–1 in the first and second fermentors respectively, 21 g/l solvent concentration was achieved. A conversion yield of 0.36 g solvents/g glucose consumed was obtained with total consumption of glucose. Biomass was only produced in the first stage together with 40% of the solvents, indicating that solvent production had to be induced in the first fermentor.

Summary A method for the continuous production of extracellular alpha amylase by surface immobilized cells of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens NRC 2147 has been developed. A large-pore, macroreticular anionic exchange resin was capable of initially immobilizing an effective cell concentration of 17.5 g DW/1 (based on a total reactor volume of 160 ml). The reactor was operated continuously with a nutrient medium containing 15 g/l soluble starch, as well as yeast extract and salts. Aeration was achieved by sparging oxygen enriched air into the column inlet. Fermentor plugging by cells was avoided by periodically substituting the nutrient medium with medium lacking in both soluble starch and yeast extract. This fermentor was operated for over 200 h and obtained a steady state enzyme concentration of 18700 amylase activity units per litre (18.7 kU/l), and an enzyme volumetric productivity of 9700 amylase activity units per litre per hour (9.7 kU/l-h). Parallel fermentations were performed using a 2 l stirred vessel fermentor capable of operation in batch and continuous mode. All fermentation conditions employed were identical to those of the immobilized cell experiments in order to assess the performance of the immobilized cell reactor. Batch stirred tank operation yielded a maximum amylase activity of 150 kU/l and a volumetric productivity of 2.45 kU/l-h. The maximum cell concentration obtained was 5.85 g DW/l. Continuous stirred tank fermentation obtained a maximum effluent amylase activity of 6.9 kU/l and a maximum enzyme volumetric productivity of 2.73 kU/l-h. Both of these maximum values were observed at a dilution rate of 0.345 l/h. The immobilized cell reactor was observed to achieve larger volumetric productivities than either mode of stirred tank fermentation, but achieved an enzyme activity concentration lower than that of the batch stirred tank fermentor. 相似文献

Sixty-two strains of yeasts, molds and bacteria were screened for lactase (β-D-galactosidase) activity. Strains exhibiting
the enzyme activity were evaluated for cell yield as well as enzyme units available per litre of the medium, per g cell dry
weight and per mg protein of their cell-free extracts. The molds exhibited lowest enzyme activity but highest cell yields,
bacteria produced lowest cell yield and maximum enzyme activity. Cultures exhibiting very high activity among yeasts wereSaccharomyces fragilis (strain 3217) and among bacteriaStreptococcus cremoris (strain H),Lactobacillus bulgaricus (strain RTS and 1373) andLeuconostoc citrovorum (strain 8081). 相似文献

Maximal exponential growth rate and yield of E. coli obtainable in a bench-scale fermentor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Oxygen supply is one of the main factors which influences aerobic cell growth in a fermentor. Maximal rates at which E. coli can grow on glucose as carbon source under various limiting oxygen-supply conditions were determined in a bench-scale fermentor. Culture conditions are described which gave yields of about 38 g dry cells per liter medium. 相似文献

Continuous production of extracellular protease by Bacillus subtilis in a two-stage fermentor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
D E Jensen 《Biotechnology and bioengineering》1972,14(4):647-662
Growth and protease production of Bacillus subtilis in semisynthetic and synthetic media were studied in batch culture and in a two-stage, laboratory scale, continuous fermentor. The amount, of extracellular protease production was measured under specific growth conditions in both stages of the ferment or. At the dilution rates employed, the cells in the first stage of the ferment or produced negligible quantities of protease, and the culture primarily functioned as a continuous inoculum for the second stage of the fermentor. The culture effluent from the second stage of the fermentor contained extracellular protease, on the average, equal to 60 per cent, of the activity that had been found in the supernatant of a 48-hr batch culture grown in a medium having the same composition as that in the continuous fermentor. Extracellular protease was produced in semisynthetic medium by B. subtilis in the two-stage fermentor for as long as 20 days without culture degeneration. Additional studies indicated that continuous protease production could also be achieved in a synthetic medium. The RNA/ protein ratios of cells grown in semisynthetic medium in batch culture and in each stage of the two-stage fermentor were examined. There was a positive correlation between the amount of protease produced by the cells and their RNA/ protein ratio. Techniques employed for continuous production of protease by B. subtilis and the potential use of the method for investigating the control of secondary metabolite synthesis are discussed. 相似文献

Summary A variety of feeding strategies have been described for attaining high cell densities in fed-batch fermentors. Although cell density is an important component in the produtivity of recombinant fermentations, it must be achievable with high product expression levels. Experiments were conducted to study the influence of fermentation feeding strategies on the production of a recombinant malaria antigen inEscherichia coli. C-source feeding profiles were calculated to maintain specific growth rates at 0.1, 0.2, 0.35, and 0.5 l/h prior to induction in defined and complex media using an exponential growth model. Fed-batch fermentations employing these feeding profiles effectively controlled the specific growth rates prior to induction. Antigen yields per dry cell weight did not vary with specific growth rate. Antigen yields from fed-batch fermentations achieving high cell densities were similar to batch fermentations achieving low cell densities. These results show that C-feeding policies can limit growth without reducing expression levels in some systems, and suggest applications in managing oxygen demand and catabolic by-product formation during process scale-up. 相似文献

Summary The growth and hyoscyamine production of transformed roots of Datura stramonium have been examined in a modified 14-1 stirred tank reactor in both batch and continuous fermentations on media containing half or full strength Gamborg's B5 salts and at three different temperatures. Under a range of conditions, roots grown on half strength B5 salts with 3% w/v sucrose had a higher dry matter content (up to 8.3% w/w) and a higher hyoscyamine content (up to 0.52 mg·g–1 wet weight) than roots grown on full strength B5 salts with the same level of sucrose (up to 4.6% w/w dry matter and up to 0.33 mg hyoscyamine g–1 wet weight). Growth at 30°C was initially faster than at either 25°C or 35°C and by day 12, the drained weight of roots in the fermentor at 30°C was about fourfold greater than at 25°C and twice that at 35°C. The ultimate hyoscyamine levels attained (approximately 0.5 mg·g–1 wet weight) were similar at both 25°C and 30°C but some 40% lower at 35°C. Final packing densities of 70% w/v were achieved for roots after 37 days growth at 25°C and the highest production rate of 8.2 mg hyoscyamine l–1 per day was obtained for roots grown at 30°C. In continuous fermentation at 25°C, the release of hyoscyamine into the culture medium was low (less than 0.5% w/w of the total) but was up to sevenfold higher in fermentors operated at 30°C or 35°C.

The applicability of a new aeration-agitation type fermentor with a grid-paddle type impeller and a spiral-sparger, Maxblend Fermentor® (MBF) for high density cultivation of plant cells, was investigated. The MBF showed a high capacity for oxygen supply and extremely low hydrodynamic stress in aeration and mixing compared with a conventional fermentor (CF). When Oryza sativa cells were cultivated at a kLa of 20 h−1, a high cell density cultivation of about 30 g dry cell weight per liter was accomplished in both fermentors and there were few differences in culture performance between the two. On the contrary, considerable differences were observed when Catharanthus roseus cells, which seemed to be sensitive to physical stress, were cultivated at a kLa of 20 h−1 in both fermentors. The MBF exhibited excellent cell growth characteristics, achieving about 19 g dry cell weight per liter, because of its superior oxygen supply and low hydrodynamic stress in aeration and mixing in highly viscous cultures containing high density cells. In CF only about 9.5 g dry cell weight per liter was achieved because of its high hydrodynamic stress. 相似文献

Escherichia coli B, Escherichia coli MRE 600, Escherichia coli K 12-3300, Pseudomonas fluorescens, and Aerobacter aerogenes were grown exponentially in a bench-scale fermentor to cell concentrations in the range of 20 to 41 g dry cells/liter at 30°C and 30 to 55 g dry cells/liter at 25°C. The high cell concentrations were achieved in a growth system previously described for growth of Escherichia coli W (Biotechnol. Bioeng., 16 , 933 (1974); ibid. 17 , 227 (1975)). Various enzyme activity levels in the high-concentration cells were compared to those in cells grown in conventional low-density cultures. No significant differences were found. The culture supernatants were found to be essentially free of high-molecular weight metabolic or cell lysis products. Yield constants for glucose, nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorus were also determined in the dense cultures and some of their relations to the growth conditions are discussed. 相似文献

Repeated-batch fermentation by a flocculating fusant, Saccharomyces cerevisiae HA 2, was done in a molasses medium that contained 20% (w/v) total sugar, at 30°C in an automatically controlled fermentor, and the effects of ethanol concentration on the specific growth rate and the specific production rate of ethanol were studied. Both the specific growth rate and the specific production rate of ethanol fell with increase of ethanol concentration, and there was a linear correlation between each rate and the concentration of thanol. The maximum specific growth rate (μmax) and the maximum specific production rate of ethanol (qmax) were 0.12 h−1 and 0.1 g ethanol/109 cells·h, respectively. The specific growth rate and the specific production rate of ethanol fell to zero at ethanol concentration of 89 g/l and 95 g/l, respectively. The number of viable cells, calculated from the linear inhibition equation, was 1.3 × 109 cells/ml for production of 85 g/l ethanol at a dilution rate (D1) of 0.2 h−1. Based on this estimation, a laboratory-scale continuous fermentation, using two fermentors in series, was done. In the second fermentor, 85 g/l ethanol was produced at a dilution rate (D1) of 0.2 h−1 by the active feedig of the fermented mash from the first fermentor into the second fermentor by pumping (hereafter called active feeding). To maintain the number of viable cells above 109 cells/ml in the second fermentor, a active feeding ratio of more than 23% was required. Under these conditions, 81 g/l ethanol was produced in the second fermentor at a dilution rate (Dt) of 0.25 h−1, and the high ethanol productivity of 20.3 g/l·h could be achieved. A bench-scale continuous fermentation, using two fermentors in series, with a active feeding ratio of 25% was done. An ethanol concentration of 84 g/l in the second fermentor at a dilution rate (Dt) of 0.25 h−1 was achieved, just as it was in the laboratory-scale fermentation test. 相似文献

The growth conditions are known to influence the bacterial adhesion to different kinds of surfaces. In the present study the
adhering ability of S. maltophilia, on growth in nutrient rich media (Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB)) and minimal media (Luria Bertani (LB)) was checked by viable
cell count and spectrophotometric method. TSB grown S. maltophilia showed higher adhesion compared to bacteria grown in LB broth, to both biotic and abiotic surfaces. However, when bacteria
were grown in LB broth supplemented with different concentrations of glucose, under aerobic conditions, the bacteria grown
at lower glucose concentration (2 gm/l) showed maximumadhesion to abiotic surfaces (polystyrene microliter plate) compared
to biotic surfaces (mouse trachea, mouse tracheal mucus and HEp-2 cells line). Maximum adhesion to biotic surfaces was seen
with cells grown at 4 gm/l of glucose concentration. On the contrary if the cell was grown under microaerophilic conditions
maximum adhesion to abiotic and biotic surfaces was achieved with bacteria grown at 1 gm/l and 2 gm/l of glucose concentration
respectively. A negative correlation was observed between glucose concentrations and pH of media, the latter declined faster
under microaerophilic conditions as compared to aerobic condition. 相似文献

The imperfect state, Sporotrichum pulverulentum, of thecellulolytic basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporiumhas been grown on barley flour and other agricultural products in shake cultures, in an air-lift fermentor, and in stirred fermentors. The growth morphology varied with cultivation conditions, but it was possible to maintain heavy suspensions of loosely associated mycelia in fermentors. The fungus can grow in temperatures up to 40°C and use ammonium salts or organic nitrogen sources to convert sugars, starch, pectin, and various seed residues to a biomass containing 30–40% protein with a favorable amino acid composition. Serial cultures were grown on flours under conditions where the larger part of the culture was withdrawn and replaced with new medium every, or every other, day. The mycelia are easy to harvest by filtration and have several properties which make the product attractive as a potential food ingredient. 相似文献

Summary A feedback resistant trp operon plasmid that transformed a multiple mutant (trpR tnaA) of Escherichia coli was found to enhance remarkably the production of tryptophan in a bench-scale fermentor. 5.5 g of tryptophan was accumulated per litre of culture medium at 24th hr in batch. The productivity was 0.229 g/l/hr. This productivity is the highest among those ever reported by other workers. The recombinant plasmid (Tcr Trp+ I-) used was completely stable in each run when tetracycline was added by 10 g/l into the medium. 相似文献

Solid-state fermentations (78% initial moisture content) of alkali-pretreated Eastern Hard Maple sawdust were conducted in tray and tumble fermentors using chaetomium cellulolyticum. Crude protein content of the solids rose from 0.9 to 11% in the tray fermentor and 8% in the tumble fermentor in 20 days. These levels were almost equal to those achieved in corresponding slurry-state fermentations (1–5% (w/v)) of the same substrate. Specific growth rates were two to four times lower in the solid-state fermentors but this was offset by their greater solids-handling capacity: the rate of protein production per unit volume of fermentation mixture was comparable to that of the 5% (w/v) slurry and two to three times higher than that of the 1% (w/v) slurry. 相似文献

Production of bacterial cellulose by Acetobacter xylinum BPR2001 using molasses medium in a jar fermentor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Bacterial cellulose (BC) production by Acetobacter xylinum subsp. sucrofermentans BPR2001 using molasses medium was carried out in a jar fermentor. When molasses was subjected to H2SO4-heat treatment, the maximum BC concentration increased to 76% more than that achieved using untreated molasses, and the specific growth rate increased 2-fold. When the initial sugar concentrations in the H2SO4-heat treated molasses were varied from 23 g/l to 72 g/l, BC concentration, production rate, and yield were maximum at sugar concentrations of 23 g/l and 37 g/l, and production of by-products, such as polysaccharides and CO2, was lower than at sugar concentrations of 48 g/l and 72 g/l, indicating that maintaining a lower molasses concentration is essential for efficient BC production in jar fermentors, this being due mainly to the complex nature of molasses. Molasses has a clear advantage over pure sugars as a carbon source from an economic viewpoint. 相似文献

Summary Gluconic acid production from corn starch hydrolysates by immobilised mycelia of Aspergillus niger was studied in a laboratory-scale stirred fermentor at different concentrations of glucose (S
0) and dissolved oxygen (DO) in the culture broth. Its evolution was simulated quite well by applying the same unstructured model set up in previous experiments using stirred and airlift fermentors. In particular, increasing S
0 in the range 70–160 g/l, although uninfluential upon the yield coefficient, resulted in an exponential decrease in the gluconic acid formation rate constant. Nevertheless, the greater the oxygen transfer rate used in the fermentor, the smaller the inhibitor effect of the higher concentrations of glucose on gluconate productivity became. This was achieved by enriching the inlet air with pure oxygen so as to maintain the DO level above 75% saturation throughout the fermentation.

Chlorella is a promising alternative resource of lutein (xanthophyll) production as it can be cultivated heterotrophically in fermentors.
In this paper, a kinetic model for lutein production by heterotrophic Chlorella pyrenoidosa was developed based on batch cultivations in 250-ml flasks and a 19-l fermentor. The model was validated by experimental
data from two fed-batch cultivations performed in the same fermentor. The dynamic behavior of lutein production by C. pyrenoidosa with various concentrations of glucose and nitrogen was analyzed based on the kinetic model. Model-based analyses suggested
that glucose concentrations between 5 and 24 g/l and nitrogen concentrations between 0.7 and 12 g/l during the cultivation
were favorable for lutein production by heterotrophic C. pyrenoidosa. It also showed that fed-batch cultivations are more suitable for efficient production of lutein than batch ones. The results
obtained in this study may contribute to commercial lutein production by heterotrophic Chlorella. 相似文献

Summary Flocculation was induced in a pure strain of the bacteria Zymomonas mobilis. When fermenting glucose to ethanol, cell densities of up to 40g/l were achieved and sustained in a 0.92 litre tower fermenter with dilution rates of up to 2.3 hr-1. A maximum productivity of 100g EtOH/l/hr with 98% conversion of the 105g/l glucose feed was achieved. The limitation to performance with increase in throughput arose from incomplete fermentation of the feed glucose, rather than washout of the flocculated bacteria. 相似文献
