SUMMARY: A quantitative study of the growth and carbohydrate metabolism of Aerobacter aerogenes in continuous culture with particular reference to 2:3-butanediol production is described. The effects of varying dilution rate, oxygen uptake rate, pH value, temperature and CO2 pressure were studied.
The optimum pH value was 5·0°6·0. The optimum temperature was 35–37° with a dilution rate of 0·2 hr−1 . The rate of sugar metabolism was decreased by raising the CO2 pressure.
In continuous culture the maximum diol output rate/1. of working volume exceeded the greatest rate reported for batch culture by a factor of three. The maximum diol concentration and yield as a percentage of the theoretical maximum were lower in continuous culture than in batch culture. Reasons for this are given.
Some variants of the parent organism were found in continuous cultures but they caused no change in the yield of butanediol. There was no sign of loss of butanediol-producing ability by any of the cultures, some of which were maintained for 2,000 hr. For the first few generations the rate of production of butanediol actually increased. 相似文献

SUMMARY: A filamentous mould was cultured by the continuous flow method in which medium is supplied at a constant rate and the culture volume is kept constant. Flow rates up to 0·1 culture volumes/hr were used. The mycelial dry weight concentration and the yield of mycelium/g of carbon source used were equal to or slightly greater than the maximum obtained in batch culture. With glucose concentrations up to 80 g/1. at a flow rate of 0·05 culture volumes/hr, about 45% of the substrate carbon was converted into mycelial carbon and the remainder oxidized to CO2 .
With unlimited amounts of all nutrients available growth of the mould followed the exponential law, as does bacterial growth, and therefore the mould had a constant doubling time.
The oxygen demand of the mould as function of growth rate was determined.
Conditions were found under which the rate of penicillin production/g of mycelium remained at its maximum value for 1000 hr. 相似文献

Summary The sporulation and toxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis H14 were studied as a function of aeration. The fed-batch cultures carried out in the similar aeration conditions were followed
in four different oxygen transfer rates containing 0, 20, 100 and 250 mmol/l/h. The percentage of total cells which had formed
refractile spores in these four oxygen transfer rates were 100, 93, 84 and 48%, respectively. The highest rate of sporulation
was observed in the absence of oxygen and the mature spores were the only population present under this condition at the end
of culture. Sporulation in a large portion of cells failed under saturated oxygenation and either mature spores or vegetative
cells were present at the end of culture. In the intermediate conditions, cells in different physiological states could be
observed at the end of culture. It was found that the optimal conditions for spore yield and for δ-endotoxin yield were not
the same, even though sporulation and δ-endotoxin formation proceed simultaneously during the fermentation process. The 130-kDa
δ-endotoxin seemed to be more sensitive to aeration conditions. The higher toxicity against Culex pipiens was obtained under the saturated condition. 相似文献

The results of the experiments on determination of the effect of aeration and agitation conditions on biosynthesis of tetracycline in the apparatus of semi-production capacity are discussed. It was shown that the antibiotic production level was not connected with the rate of oxygen solution expressed in the sulphite numbers, i.e. this parameter cannot be used as a scaling-up criterion. Accumulation of the antibiotic in the fermentation broth depended on the volume of the air supplied for aeration. It was determined that the level of CO2 dissolved in the fermentation broth did not reach the values having an inhibitory effect on the biosynthetic process. 相似文献

Ferrous iron oxidation by Thiobacillus ferrooxidans was studied in shake flasks and a bubble column under different aeration conditions. The maximum biooxidation rate constant was affected by oxygen transfer only at low aeration intensities. At oxygen transfer rates higher than 0.03 mmol O2 l−1 min−1, the maximum biooxidation rate constant was about 0.050 h−1 in both shake flasks of different size and the bubble column. The oxygen transfer rate could be used as a basis for scaling up bioreactors for ferrous iron biooxidation by T. ferrooxidans. 相似文献

The production of enterotoxin A and nuclease by Staphylococcus aureus strain 100 was studied in a 1.0-liter fermentor. The effects of the gas flow rate, pH, and dissolved oxygen were evaluated. Toxin and nuclease secretion occurred under all conditions which permitted growth of the organism. Final yields of toxin and nuclease in cultures grown at constant air flow rates, ranging from 50 to 500 cm3 per min, were higher at successively higher flow rates. An optimum flow rate for either toxin or nuclease production was not observed. When the aeration rate alone or aeration rate and pH were held constant, the dissolved oxygen levels in the culture decreased from the initial 100% level to 0 to 5% 3 to 4 h after inoculation. The O2 demand of the culture then maintained this level for an additional 4 to 5 h. This low dissolved oxygen interval was characterized by rapid growth and extracellular protein production. Controlling the dissolved oxygen at a constant level throughout growth did not increase the final levels of toxin and nuclease above those achieved at the respective constant pH values. Growth under the influence of a constant aeration rate of 500 cm3 per min and a constant pH of 6.5 and 7.0 yielded the highest titers of nuclease (1,550 units/ml) and toxin (10.5 mug/ml) obtained in any of the fermentations conducted in this study. Sparging fermentor cultures with pure oxygen at a rate of 100 cm3 per min yielded growth and extracellular protein levels similar to those achieved at the sparge rate of 500 cm3 of air per min. Controlling the dissolved oxygen at 100% of pure oxygen saturation appeared to inhibit the culture, as the final cultural turbidity as well as the levels of toxin and nuclease were reduced. These data indicate that enterotoxin and nuclease secretions are closely associated with the growth of strain 100. Analyses of the production rates of these components indicated that early log phase was the most efficient production interval in the growth cycle and that this efficiency was increased by pH control at 6.7 to 6.8 and dissolved oxygen control at 10% of air saturation. 相似文献

Ammonium ion affecting tylosin production by Streptomyces fradiae NRRL 2702 in continuous culture 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Nitrogen regulation in tylosin production by Streptomyces fradiae NRRL 2702 was studied in chemostat culture using a soluble synthetic medium. The maximum value of specific tylosin formation rate ( q TYL ) was 1·13 mg g−1 h−1 at the specific growth rate (μ) of 0·05 h−1 , and q TYL decreased with increasing levels of the specific growth rate after reaching a rate of 0·1 h−1 . The optimum conditions for tylosin formation were that the specific ammonium ion uptake rate ( q N ) and μ were 0·13 mmol g−1 h−1 and 0·05 h−1 , respectively. The specific formation rates of threonine dehydratase (TDT) and tylosin were repressed by high levels of specific ammonium ion uptake rate. This study showed the adaptation to chemostat cultures of the nitrogen regulation of tylosin fermentations. 相似文献

A sensitive microsensor‐based method was used to measure oxygen consumption of individual zebrafish Danio rerio embryos at 6 h intervals from 24 to 75 h post‐fertilization. An increase in oxygen consumption rates from 4·54 to 8·29 nmol O2 h−1 was found during this period. At the individual level the differences in oxygen consumption rates caused the total oxygen consumption from 24 to 75 h post‐fertilization to vary between 0·261 and 0·462 μmol O2 per individual with a mean of 0·379 μmol O2 per individual. A separate carbon mass balance study corroborated the mean total oxygen consumption obtained by yielding a respiratory quotient of 0·80 for this period. These results suggest that there is significant intraspecific variation in the metabolic rate of developing zebrafish embryos, which may influence other early life‐history traits such as growth and starvation resistance. 相似文献

Influence of different rations and water temperatures on the growth rates of shortfinned eels and longfinned eels 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Juvenile (12–152 g) shortfinned eels Anguilla australis and longfinned eels A. dieffenbachia caught in New Zealand streams were fed squid mantle Nototodarus spp. 4 days per week in laboratory experiments. A linear multiple regression equation showed the amount of food eaten (0–2·7% w day−1 ) explained 77·7% of the variation in specific growth rates (–0·60 to +1·07% w day−1 ) among individual eels, while previous growth rates, water temperature (10·0–20·6°C), and eel weight (12–152 g) explained a further 5·6, 1·4 and 0·8%, respectively. Growth in length ranged from –0·3 to +0·9 mm day−1 . Eels which were starved and then given high rations grew substantially faster than expected. Once growth rates were adjusted for differences in ration and other factors, there were no significant differences in growth rates between species or individual fish. Growth of shortfinned eels fed maximum rations of commercial eel food depended on fish size and water temperatures and ceased below 9·0°C. Growth rates in the wild were substantially less than the maximum possible, after seasonal changes in water temperatures were taken into account, indicating that food supplies and not low water temperatures were controlling growth rates in the wild. 相似文献

The growth of pure cultures of Clostridium perfringens (ATCC 12922) and Cl. sporogenes (PA 3679) in five non-selective media, fluid thioglycollate medium (FTM), rapid perfringens medium (RPM), Columbia broth Malthus (CBM), reinforced clostridial medium (RCM) and lactose sulphite (LS), was monitored using conductance measurements with a Malthus analyser. Only FTM and CBM gave useful results. The correlation of log10 plate counts on blood agar of the pure strain of Cl. sporogenes with detection times in FTM was highly significant ( r = 0·96, n = 73), and with detection times in CBM less so ( r = −0·909, n = 33). The correlation of log10 counts on tryptose sulphite neomycin medium (TSN) of wild strains of Cl. sporogenes and Cl. perfringens with detection times with FTM in meat was also highly significant ( r = 0·933, n = 54). 相似文献

The effect of the dissolved oxygen on glycerol and ethanol productions by an osmotolerant yeast Hansenula anomala was examined during growth in media at low water activity resulting from the addition of 2M NaCl in the culture medium. High stirring rate, high culture medium aeration, as well as high mass transfer surface inhibited both glycerol and ethanol biosynthesis. In absence of oxygen, yeast used acetaldehyde as a hydrogen acceptor, leading to the stimulation of ethanol biosynthesis and accounting for the low biomass and glycerol production; the experimental ratio ethanol on glycerol produced was 5.1 when the available oxygen was lowered (low stirring rate, 500rpm) and increased to 10.2 in absence of aeration. Extracellular glycerol production was therefore optimal for a moderate stirring (1000rpm) and aeration (1.4vvm) rates. These optimal conditions resulted in an experimental ratio ethanol on glycerol produced of 4.1, namely close to the theoretical value of 4, illustrating the osmodependent channelling of carbon towards polyols production. 相似文献

Perfused rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss hearts exposed to simulated exercise conditions (hypoxia, hyperkalemia and acidosis) at 18° C experienced complete failure of maximum cardiac performance at oxygen tensions <5·6 kPa and partial failure at <6·7 kPa. This hypoxic threshold, which occurred in the presence of maximal adrenergic stimulation (500 nM adrenaline), is unusually high compared with previous results at a colder acclimation temperature. Cardiac failure was primarily due to significant decreases ( P < 0·05) in heart rate rather than cardiac stroke volume at all hypoxia levels tested. 相似文献

The effects of body mass and feeding on metabolic rate in small juvenile Atlantic cod 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Apparent specific dynamic action (SDA) amplitude in young juvenile Atlantic cod Gadus morhua (1 to 8 g wet mass), fed a standardized meal and then exercised in a circular swimming respirometer at a constant swimming speed of 0·5 ± 0·3 body lengths s-1 , occurred within l h after feeding in all juveniles. SDA amplitude were 1·4 to 1·8 times higher in fed fish compared to unfed fish, and rates of oxygen consumption decreased as body mass increased. SDA duration had a tendency to decrease with increasing body mass and was shortest, at 6 h, in the smallest fish (1–1·5 g), but increased to 10–11 h in the largest fish. Apparent SDA in fed fish ( R r ) scaled with a mass exponent of 0·89, while maximum metabolic rate ( R max ) determined by chasing fish to exhaustion and then measuring oxygen consumption for 12 h, and unfed routine metabolic rate (Rr ) scaled with a mass exponent of 0·79 and 0·76 respectively. Relative aerobic scope ( R max – unfed R r ) did not appear to vary over the 1 to 8 g increase in wet mass. These results show that as body mass increased in young juvenile Atlantic cod: (1) apparent SDA ( R f ) increased more rapidly than R max , and (2) apparent SDA took up >98% of the relative aerobic scope and that young Atlantic cod allocated most of the energy to growth, and left little for other metabolic activities. 相似文献

The growth kinetics of Streptomyces noursei NRRL 5126 was investigated under different aeration and agitation combinations in a 5.0 l stirred tank fermenter. Poly-epsilon-lysine biosynthesis, cell mass formation, and glycerol utilization rates were affected markedly by both aeration and agitation. An agitation speed of 300 rpm and aeration rate at 2.0 vvm supported better yields of 1,622.81 mg/l with highest specific productivity of 15 mg/l.h. Fermentation kinetics performed under different aeration and agitation conditions showed poly- epsilon-lysine fermentation to be a growth-associated production. A constant DO at 40% in the growth phase and 20% in the production phase increased the poly-epsilon-lysine yield as well as cell mass to their maximum values of 1,992.35 mg/l and 20.73 g/l, respectively. The oxygen transfer rate (OTR), oxygen utilization rate (OUR), and specific oxygen uptake rates (qO2) in the fermentation broth increased in the growth phase and remained unchanged in the stationary phase. 相似文献

Effects of agitation and aeration rates on volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient and oxygen uptake rate of a riboflavin broth containing Ashbya gossypii were investigated in three batch, sparged, and agitated fermentors having the working volumes of 0.42, 0.85, and 2.5 l. The change of oxygen uptake rate with time at 250 rev min−1 stirring and
vvm aeration rates was shown. The volumetric oxygen transfer coefficients and maximum oxygen uptake rates obtained have been correlated to mechanical power inputs per unit volume of the fermentation broth and the superficial air velocities. 相似文献

A method is described for measuring respiration in isolated perfused flounder gills experiencing pressures and flows similar to those seen in vivo . Mean oxygen consumption of 13 preparations bathed and perfused in identical saline was 5·00 ± 0·75 (s.e.) μ mol h−1 g wet−1 , whilst that of five preparations perfused with saline but bathed in sea water (32 mg l−1 ) was 12·06±2·39 (s.e.) μmol h−1 g wet−1 . The oxygen consumption of the seawater bathed gills was significantly higher (P<0·05) than that in saline bathed gills. These results provide direct evidence both of the high metabolic activity of the gill under normal perfusion conditions and of the increased energy expenditure of the giil in hyperosmotic, compared to isosmotic, environments. 相似文献
