The use of bacteriocin-producing lactic acid bacteria for improved food fermentation processes seems promising. However, lack of fundamental knowledge about the functionality of bacteriocin-producing strains under food fermentation conditions hampers their industrial use. Predictive microbiology or a mathematical estimation of microbial behavior in food ecosystems may help to overcome this problem. In this study, a combined model was developed that was able to estimate, from a given initial situation of temperature, pH, and nutrient availability, the growth and self-inhibition dynamics of a bacteriocin-producing Lactobacillus sakei CTC 494 culture in (modified) MRS broth. Moreover, the drop in pH induced by lactic acid production and the bacteriocin activity toward Listeria as an indicator organism were modeled. Self-inhibition was due to the depletion of nutrients as well as to the production of lactic acid. Lactic acid production resulted in a pH drop, an accumulation of toxic undissociated lactic acid molecules, and a shift in the dissociation degree of the growth-inhibiting buffer components. The model was validated experimentally. 相似文献

Lactic acid is an important industrial chemical commonly produced through microbial fermentation. The efficiency of acid extraction is increased at or below the acid’s pKa (pH 3.86), so there is interest in factors that allow for a reduced fermentation pH. We explored the role of cyclopropane synthase (Cfa) and polysorbate (Tween) 80 on acid production and membrane lipid composition in Lactobacillus casei ATCC 334 at low pH. Cells from wild-type and an ATCC 334 cfa knockout mutant were incubated in APT broth medium containing 3 % glucose plus 0.02 or 0.2 % Tween 80. The cultures were allowed to acidify the medium until it reached a target pH (4.5, 4.0, or 3.8), and then the pH was maintained by automatic addition of NH4OH. Cells were collected at the midpoint of the fermentation for membrane lipid analysis, and media samples were analyzed for lactic and acetic acids when acid production had ceased. There were no significant differences in the quantity of lactic acid produced at different pH values by wild-type or mutant cells grown in APT, but the rate of acid production was reduced as pH declined. APT supplementation with 0.2 % Tween 80 significantly increased the amount of lactic acid produced by wild-type cells at pH 3.8, and the rate of acid production was modestly improved. This effect was not observed with the cfa mutant, which indicated Cfa activity and Tween 80 supplementation were each involved in the significant increase in lactic acid yield observed with wild-type L. casei at pH 3.8. 相似文献

An aroma-imparting mesophilic lactic starter (Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis biovar. diacetylactis) was studied in batch culture in medium with 50 g·l–1 lactose and 2 g·l–1 citrate. The effect of pH on the physiology of growth and the production of flavour compounds was investigated with a mathematical model. The specific rates of growth and of lactose fermentation obeyed a law of non-competitive inhibition by lactic acid produced, inhibition increasing as the pH of the medium decreased. The pH thus acted indirectly by increasing the proportion of non-dissociated lactic acid, identified as the inhibiting form of lactic acid. The generalized model, taking into account the effect of pH, was tested using fermentations at pH controlled at different values (4.5–6.5), as well as with a fermentation conducted at non-regulated pH. These simulations supported the working hypotheses. The effect of pH on the fermentation of citric acid resulted in an increase in the maximal specific rate of citrate utilization, in the bioconversion yield, and in the constant of diacetyl and acetoin reduction at acid pH. The production of flavour compounds is a complex phenomenon resulting from the interaction of pH, citric acid concentration, and the physiological state of the cells. These results are discussed with respect to the use of this strain in the preparation of manufactured dairy products. 相似文献

Apart from its widely accepted commercial applications as a food preservative, nisin emerges as a promising alternative in medical applications for bacterial infection in both humans and livestock. Improving nisin production through optimization of fermentation parameters would make nisin more cost-effective for various applications. Since nisin production by Lactococcus lactis NIZO 22186 was highly influenced by the pH profile employed during fermentation, three different pH profiles were evaluated in this study: (1) a constant pH profile at 6.8 (profile 1), (2) a constant pH profile with autoacidification at 4 h (profile 2), and (3) a stepwise pH profile with pH adjustment every 2 h (profile 3). The results demonstrated that the low-pH stress exerted during the first 4 h of fermentation in profile 3 detrimentally affected nisin production, resulting in a very low maximum nisin concentration (593 IU ml−1). On the other hand, growth and lactic acid production were only slightly delayed, indicating that the loss in nisin production was not a result of lower growth or shifting of metabolic activity toward lactic acid production. Profile 2, in which pH was allowed to drop freely via autoacidification after 4 h of fermentation, was found to yield almost 1.9 times higher nisin (3,553 IU ml−1) than profile 1 (1,898 IU ml−1), possibly as a result of less adsorption of nisin onto producer cells. Therefore, a combination of constant pH and autoacidification period (profile 2) was recommended as the pH profile during nisin production in a biofilm reactor. 相似文献

Lactic acid is a commonly occurring organic acid, which is valuable due to its wide use in food and food-related industries, and its potential for the production of biodegradable and biocompatible polylactate polymers. Lactic acid can be produced from renewable materials using various fungal species of the Rhizopus genus, which have advantages compared to the bacteria, including their amylolytic characteristics, low nutrient requirements and valuable fermentation by-product—fungal biomass. This paper reviews recent research in process engineering, metabolic and enzymetic mechanisms, and molecular biotechnology associated with lactic acid production by the Rhizopus fungi to get a better understanding of biochemical activities. The major process components: renewable materials, bioreactor systems and process modeling are reviewed. The role of key bioprocess parameters, such as nutrient composition, pH and growth morphology, involved in the production of lactic acid is discussed in detail. In addition, recent advances in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation, molecular genetic approaches, and enzymetic and metabolic pathways involved in the production of lactic acid by fungal strains are discussed. 相似文献

In this study, an ethanol fermentation waste (EFW) was characterized for use as an alternative to yeast extract for bulk fermentation processes. EFW generated from a commercial plant in which ethanol is produced from cassava/rice/wheat/barley starch mixtures using Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used for lactic acid production by Lactobacillus paracasei. The effects of temperature, pH, and duration on the autolysis of an ethanol fermentation broth (EFB) were also investigated. The distilled EFW (DEFW) contained significant amounts of soluble proteins (2.91 g/l), nitrogen (0.47 g/l), and amino acids (24.1 mg/l). The autolysis of the EFB under optimum conditions released twice as much amino acids than in the DEFW. Batch fermentation in the DEFW increased the final lactic acid concentration, overall lactic acid productivity, and lactic acid yield on glucose by 17, 41, and 14 %, respectively, in comparison with those from comparable fermentation in a lactobacillus growth medium (LGM) that contained 2 g/l yeast extract. Furthermore, the overall lactic acid productivity in the autolyzed then distilled EFW (ADEFW) was 80 and 27 % higher than in the LGM and DEFW, respectively. 相似文献

The fermentation of the batter of idli, a fermented food of India, was studied. The microorganisms responsible for the characteristic changes in the batter were isolated and identified. Although there is a sequential change in the bacterial flora, the predominant microorganism responsible for souring, as well as for gas production, was found to be Leuconostoc mesenteroides. In the later stages of fermentation, growth of Streptococcus faecalis and, still later, of Pediococcus cerevisiae becomes significant. The fermentation of idli demonstrates a leavening action caused by the activity of the heterofermentative lactic acid bacterium, L. mesenteroides. As far as is known, this is the first record of a leavening action produced exclusively by the activity of a lactic acid bacterium. 相似文献

The possibilities of parallel lactic acid and biomass production in batch and fed-batch fermentation on distillery stillage from bioethanol production were studied. The highest lactic acid yield and productivity of 92.3 % and 1.49 g L?1 h?1 were achieved in batch fermentation with initial sugar concentration of 55 g L?1. A significant improvement of the process was achieved in fed-batch fermentation where the concentration of lactic acid was increased to 47.6 % and volumetric productivity for 21 % over the batch process. A high number of Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC 7469 viable cells of 109 CFU ml?1 was attained at the end of fed-batch fermentation. The survival of 92.9 % of L. rhamnosus cells after 3 h of incubation at pH 2.5 validated that the fermentation media remained after lactic acid removal could be used as a biomass-enriched animal feed thus making an additional value to the process. 相似文献

In this study, Saccharomyces cerevisiae OC-2T T165R, metabolically engineered to produce optically pure L(+)-lactic acid, was used to develop a high performance extractive fermentation process. Since the transgenic yeast could produce lactic acid efficiently even at lower than pH 3.5, high extractive efficiency was achieved when tri-n-decylamine (TDA), a tertiary amine, was used as the extractant. Separation of microorganisms by means of a hollow fiber module could not only improve the total amount of lactic acid produced but also increase the lactic acid concentration in the solvent. Moreover, pH had a significant effect on extractive fermentation. The highest rate of recovery of lactic acid could be obtained on pH-uncontrolled fermentation (pH 2.5); however, the lowest amount of lactic acid was produced. Taking into account the trade-off between the fermentation and extraction efficiencies, the optimum pH value was considered to be 3.5, with which the largest amount of lactic acid was produced and the highest lactic acid concentration in the solvent was obtained. The results show promise for the use of the transgenic yeast for extractive fermentation. 相似文献

The production of a new cereal-based probiotic foods with suitable aroma, flavor and pH using mixed culture fermentation has been investigated. This required the selection of suitable types of cereal grains and probiotic microorganisms. In a medium of 5% (w/v) malt suspension the effects of yeast presence on the fermentation of a lactic acid bacterium (LAB), Lactobacillus reuteri, was studied. With different inoculum ratios between the yeast and the LAB, the characteristics of the fermentation broth including pH and the contents of free amino nitrogen (FAN), reducing sugar, lactic acid and ethanol were investigated. It was found that LAB growth was enhanced by the introduction of the yeast. In mixed culture broth pH was lowered and the production of lactic acid and ethanol were increased in comparison against pure LAB culture. 相似文献

The specific conditions in the batter of raw fermented sausages may reduce the efficiency of bacteriocin-producing starter cultures. In this work, using in vitro fermentation, we found that sodium chloride and sodium nitrite interfere with the growth of Lactobacillus sakei CTC 494, an organism which produces the antilisterial bacteriocin sakacin K. Because sakacin K production follows primary metabolite kinetics, a decrease in cell formation resulted in a decrease in sakacin K production as well. Sodium chloride dramatically influenced bacteriocin production by decreasing both biomass production and specific bacteriocin production. Sodium nitrite, however, had no effect on specific bacteriocin production and decreased bacteriocin production only because of its effect on cell growth. Moreover, sodium nitrite enhanced the toxic effect of lactic acid on bacterial growth. 相似文献

光学纯乳酸作为可降解生物材料——聚乳酸(polylactic acid,PLA)的前体物质,正在受到广泛关注。乳酸发酵过程中酸性产物的积累会影响菌株的生长,提高菌株酸耐受性具有重要意义。本研究以乳酸生产菌株凝结芽孢杆菌(Bacillus coagulans) DSM1为出发菌株,通过对凝结芽孢杆菌DSM1及其乳酸脱氢酶双敲除菌株(DldhL1DldhL2)进行比较转录分析,筛选酸耐受相关的转运蛋白基因。对关键基因RS16330、RS06895、RS16325、RS10595、RS00500、RS07275、RS10635及RS01930进行实时定量PCR分析,发现基因RS06895、RS10595、RS00500和RS10635在发酵12 h和24 h转录水平显著增强。过表达RS10595基因的菌株,在中性(pH 6.0)条件下生长状况和发酵性能均受到抑制,但在酸性条件下(pH 4.6),其乳酸生成相比对照组显著提高。上述结果表明,RS10595基因与菌株DSM1的酸耐受性密切相关。本研究有助于进一步探究凝结芽孢杆菌酸耐受的机制,也为构建耐酸菌株提供了基础。 相似文献

Lactic acid is an intermediate-volume specialty chemical for a wide range of food and industrial applications such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and chemical syntheses. Although lactic acid production has been well documented, improved production parameters that lead to reduced production costs are always of interest in industrial developments. In this study, we describe the production of lactic acid at high concentration, yield and volumetric productivity utilizing a novel homofermentative, facultative anaerobe Enterococcus faecalis CBRD01. The highest concentration of 182 g lactic acid l−1 was achieved after 38 h of fed-batch fermentation on glucose. The bacterial isolate utilized only 2–13% of carbon for its growth and energy metabolism, while 87–98% of carbon was converted to lactic acid at an overall volumetric productivity of 5 g l−1 h−1. At 13 h of fermentation, the volumetric productivity of lactate production reached 10.3 g l−1 h−1, which is the highest ever reported for microbial production of lactic acid. The lactic acid produced was of high purity as formation of other metabolites was less than 0.1%. The present investigation demonstrates a new opportunity for enhanced production of lactic acid with potential for reduced purification costs. 相似文献

Eighteen Pediococcus strains were screened for their potential as silage inoculants. Pediococcus acidilactici G24 was found to be the most suitable, exhibiting a short lag phase on both glucose and fructose, a rapid rate of acid production, a high sugar-to-lactate conversion efficiency, no detectable breakdown of proteins or lactic acid, and the ability to grow within a broad range of pH and temperature. When tested in laboratory silos using grass with a water-soluble carbohydrate content of 24 g/kg of aqueous extract, P. acidilactici G24 stimulated the natural Lactobacillus plantarum population and accelerated the rates of lactic acid production and pH decrease. After 6 days of fermentation, the inoculated silage exhibited a 12% decrease in ammonia nitrogen and an 11% increase in crude protein levels compared with uninoculated controls. The use of an L. plantarum inoculant at a rate of 104 bacteria per g of grass in conjunction with P. acidilactici G24 produced no additional beneficial effect. Inoculation of grass with a water-soluble carbohydrate level of 8 g/kg of aqueous extract with P. acidilactici G24 led to no acceleration in the rate of L. plantarum growth or pH decrease. However, after 7 days of fermentation the inoculated silage had a 14% lower ammonia nitrogen protein content than did uninoculated controls. The results suggest that P. acidilactici G24 may be useful as a silage inoculant for crops with a sufficiently high water-soluble carbohydrate level. 相似文献

The aims of this research were to investigate the potential for improvement of bioethanol fermentation by microwave pre-treatment of triticale, as well as the possibility of using triticale stillage (a by-product of bioethanol fermentation) as a suitable medium for lactic acid fermentation, either without or with the optimal addition of CaCO3. The results showed that an adequate microwave pre-treatment (270 and 450 W) marginally improved bioethanol production, giving a slightly higher yield of the bioethanol produced (by 3.95%). Lactobacillus fermentum PL-1 was used for subsequent lactic acid fermentation of the stillage that remained after bioethanol fermentation. Results showed higher pH decrease and higher acidity in the samples without the addition of CaCO3. Consequently, higher concentrations of l- and d-lactic acid were determined in the samples with the addition of CaCO3, as well as better viability of cells and the complete glucose utilization. 相似文献

Summary Cheese whey ultrafiltrate (WU) was used as the carbon source for the production of lactic acid by batch fermentation with Lactobacillus helveticus strain milano. The fermentation was conducted in a 400 ml fermentor at an agitation rate of 200 rpm and under conditions of controlled temperature (42° C) and pH. In the whey ultrafiltrate-corn steep liquor (WU-CSL) medium, the optimal pH for fermentation was 5.9. Inoculum propagated in skim milk (SM) medium or in lactose synthetic (LS) medium resulted in the best performance in fermentation (in terms of growth, lactic acid production, lactic acid yield and maximum productivity of lactic acid), as compared to that propagated in glucose synthetic (GS) medium. The yeast extract ultrafiltrate (YEU) used as the nitrogen/growth factor source in the WU medium at 1.5% (w/v) gave the highest maximum productivity of lactic acid of 2.70 g/l-h, as compared to the CSL and the tryptone ultrafiltrate (TU). L. helveticus is more advantageous than Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii for the production of lactic acid from WU. The L. helveticus process will provide an alternative solution to the phage contamination in dairy industries using Lactobacillus bulgaricus. 相似文献

Abstract The use of plastic produced from non-renewable resources constitutes a major environmental problem of the modern society. Polylactide polymers (PLA) have recently gained enormous attention as one possible substitution of petroleum derived polymers. A prerequisite for high quality PLA production is the provision of optically pure lactic acid, which cannot be obtained by chemical synthesis in an economical way. Microbial fermentation is therefore the commercial option to obtain lactic acid as monomer for PLA production. However, one major economic hurdle for commercial lactic acid production as basis for PLA is the costly separation procedure, which is needed to recover and purify the product from the fermentation broth. Yeasts, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae (bakers yeast) offer themselves as production organisms because they can tolerate low pH and grow on mineral media what eases the purification of the acid. However, naturally yeasts do not produce lactic acid. By metabolic engineering, ethanol was exchanged with lactic acid as end product of fermentation. A vast amount of effort has been invested into the development of yeasts for lactic acid production since the first paper on this topic by Dequin and process insight. If pH stress is used as basis for DNA microarray analyses, in order to improve the host, what exactly is addressed? Growth? Or productivity? They might be connected, but can be negatively correlated. A better growing strain might not be a better producer. So if the question was growth, the answer might not be what was initially intended (productivity). A major task for the future is to learn to ask the right questions – a lot of studies intended to lead to better productivity, did lead to interesting results, but NOT to better production strains. Taking together what we learned from lactic acid production with yeasts, we see a bright future for bulk and fine chemical production with these versatile hosts. 相似文献

In this study, the immobilization technique involving photo-crosslinkable resin gels was used for lactic acid production. Saccharomyces cerevisiae OC-2T T165R, a metabolically engineered yeast that produces optically pure l(+)-lactic acid, was immobilized in hydrophilic photo-crosslinked resin gels as a biocatalyst. Three resin gels, TEP 1, TEP 2 and TEP 3, were examined and all of them showed high performance as to lactic acid production. Resin gel TEP 1, which exhibited the highest productivity among the resin gels was used for 15 consecutive batch fermentations without decreases in productivity and mechanical deformation, indicating that it was a suitable carrier for long-term lactic acid fermentation. Moreover, the use of the immobilization technique can improve the productivity of the metabolically engineered yeast in the fermentation with or without extraction, showing promise for using the immobilized engineered yeast for lactic acid production. 相似文献

The biochemical kinetic of direct fermentation for lactic acid production by fungal species of Rhizopus arrhizus 3,6017 and Rhizopus oryzae 2,062 was studied with respect to growth pH, temperature and substrate. The direct fermentation was characterized by starch
hydrolysis, accumulation of reducing sugar, and production of lactic acid and fungal biomass. Starch hydrolysis, reducing
sugar accumulation, biomass formation and lactic acid production were affected with the variations in pH, temperature, and
starch source and concentration. A growth condition with starch concentration approximately 20 g/l at pH 6.0 and 30°C was
favourable for both starch saccharification and lactic acid fermentation, resulting in lactic acid yield of 0.87–0.97 g/g
starch associated with 1.5–2.0 g/l fungal biomass produced in 36 h fermentation. R. arrhizus 3,6017 had a higher capacity to produce lactic acid, while R. oryzae 2,062 produced more fungal biomass under similar conditions. 相似文献
