膜反应器固定化米根霉发酵产富马酸的工艺研究

以膜反应器固定化米根霉发酵产富马酸为研究对象,以Na2CO3为中和剂,考察固定化米根霉在5L搅拌式发酵罐中的发酵特征,采用智能可视化软件(IVOS)优化发酵工艺条件。结果表明,在80g/L初始糖浓及最优工艺下,富马酸产量、生产速率及转化率分别为21.1g/L、0.25g/(L·h)和28%;采用40g/L初始糖浓及连续批次发酵工艺时,富马酸产量、生产速率及转化率最高分别为10.8 g/L、0.36g/(L·h)和27%。搅拌式反应器中,固定化米根霉的膜反应器比表面积有限,以及菌膜的空间阻隔效应对传质传氧的限制作用,显著影响了富马酸的生产强度和转化率。因此,亟需发掘新的固定化方法及反应器形式,达到既解决米根霉形态控制问题,又有助于生产性状提升的目标。     

不同的中和剂对L(+)-乳酸发酵的影响

分别利用CaCO3、6 mol/L氨水和6 mol/L NaOH溶液调控乳酸发酵过程的pH,得到的乳酸浓度为169.1g/L、187.9g/L和170.1g/L(以发酵液的初始体积计算),分别是无pH调控发酵过程的4.9倍、5.4倍和4.9倍;得到的OD620分别为19.3、21.6和16.4,分别是无pH调控(OD620为8.5)的2.3倍、2.5倍和1.9倍.相对于氨水和NaOH来说,CaCO3粉末是一种缓慢型的酸中和剂,pH调节能力有限,只能将pH维持在4.9～5.2.但CaCO3可以将乳酸以生成乳酸钙的形式沉淀下来,给下游乳酸的分离提取带来一定的方便.因此对于传统的分批式发酵,CaCO3仍不失为一种较好的选择.氨水和NaOH溶液都可以很好地将发酵液的pH调控在6.0,其中氨水是一种最理想的酸中和剂,既有利于乳酸的生物合成又能促进乳酸菌的生长.

无机碳源对小球藻自养产油脂的影响

旨在研究小球藻利用无机碳自养产油脂,考察了3种无机碳源 (Na2CO3、NaHCO3和CO2) 及其初始浓度对小球藻产油特性的影响。结果表明,小球藻能利用Na2CO3、NaHCO3和CO2产油;经Na2CO3、NaHCO3和CO2培养10 d后,随着每种无机碳源浓度的增加,小球藻产量均先增加后减少。小球藻经3种无机碳源培养后,其培养液pH值上升。最适宜的Na2CO3和NaHCO3添加量均为40 mmol/L,其生物量分别达到0.52 g/L和0.67 g/L,产油量分别达到0.19 g/L和0.22 g/L。在3种无机碳源中,CO2是最佳无机碳源,当CO2浓度为6％时,小球藻生长最快,生物量达2.42 g/L,产油量最高达0.72 g/L;当CO2浓度过低时,无机碳供应不足,油脂产量低;当CO2浓度过高时,培养液pH偏低,小球藻油脂积累受到抑制。Na2CO3和NaHCO3较CO2更有利于小球藻积累不饱和脂肪酸。

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
