目的:蔗渣是一种重要的可再生生物质资源,蔗渣原料生产丁醇将大大降低丁醇的成本.方法:实验利用0.25 ～3.0%不同浓度稀H2SO4对蔗渣进行121℃的高温作用1h,以水解液为碳源,进行丁醇的发酵实验.结果:相对于8052菌株,13 -2菌株对甘蔗渣水解液具有更高的发酵效率,在0.5%硫酸用量条件下,13 -2菌株的丁醇发酵量最高,达到4.5g/L.而8052只有2.3g/L的丁醇发酵量.结论:在同等条件下,拜氏梭菌菌株13 -2比模式菌株8052具有更高的溶剂产量和抑制物耐受能力,最佳的蔗渣水解条件为1.5%硫酸用量,丁醇发酵量和总溶剂分别为4.57g/L和5.41 g/L.     

丙酮丁醇梭菌发酵菊芋汁生产丁醇

对丙酮丁醇梭菌Clostridium acetobutylicum L7发酵菊芋汁酸水解液生产丁醇进行了初步研究。实验结果表明,以该水解液为底物生产丁醇,不需要添加氮源和生长因子。当水解液初始糖浓度为48.36 g/L时,其发酵性能与以果糖为碳源的对照组基本相同,发酵终点丁醇浓度为8.67 g/L,丁醇、丙酮和乙醇的比例为0.58∶0.36∶0.06,但与以葡萄糖为碳源的对照组相比,发酵时间明显延长,表明该菌株葡萄糖转运能力强于果糖。当水解液初始糖浓度提高到62.87 g/L时,发酵终点残糖浓度从3.09 g/L增加到3.26 g/L,但丁醇浓度却提高到11.21 g/L,丁醇、丙酮和乙醇的比例相应为0.64∶0.29∶0.05,表明适量糖过剩有助于C.acetobutylicum L7胞内代谢从丙酮合成向丁醇合成途径调节;继续提高水解液初始糖浓度,发酵终点残糖浓度迅速升高,丁醇生产的技术经济指标受到明显影响。

玉米黄浆水在丙酮-丁醇厌氧梭菌发酵中的应用

为降低丙酮-丁醇厌氧梭菌发酵生产丁醇的成本,研究了不同添加量玉米黄浆水对发酵的影响。与葡萄糖培养基相比,在发酵培养基中添加少量玉米黄浆水对发酵产量无显著影响。当添加体积分数为25％的玉米黄浆水时,丙酮、丁醇和乙醇的最终质量浓度分别是0．31、2．70和8．00g/L,总溶剂量为11．01g／L。通过成本核算,每生产1kg溶剂,添加体积分数25％的玉米黄浆水可比葡萄糖培养基节约成本2．11元。

丙酮丁醇梭菌丁醇耐受性

丁醇在发酵培养基中的积累所产生的毒性问题是限制丁醇产量的重要因素,然而对于Clostridium acetobutylicum是如何适应丁醇胁迫,进而调节菌体生长和代谢的,目前尚缺乏系统研究,不能全面揭示C.acetobutylicum的丁醇耐受性机制.对丙酮丁醇梭菌丁醇耐受性有关的研究成果进行了综述,旨在深入理解菌株丁醇耐受性发生改变的相关分子基础.希望为进行微生物丁醇耐受性分子机制的改造、提高菌株的丁醇耐受性提供新的研究思路.

Butanol production from agricultural residues: Impact of degradation products on Clostridium beijerinckii growth and butanol fermentation

During pretreatment and hydrolysis of fiber-rich agricultural biomass, compounds such as salts, furfural, hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF), acetic, ferulic, glucuronic, rho-coumaric acids, and phenolic compounds are produced. Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 can utilize the individual sugars present in lignocellulosic [e.g., corn fiber, distillers dry grain solubles (DDGS), etc] hydrolysates such as cellobiose, glucose, mannose, arabinose, and xylose. In these studies we investigated the effect of some of the lignocellulosic hydrolysate inhibitors associated with C. beijerinckii BA101 growth and acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) production. When 0.3 g/L rho-coumaric and ferulic acids were introduced into the fermentation medium, growth and ABE production by C. beijerinckii BA101 decreased significantly. Furfural and HMF are not inhibitory to C. beijerinckii BA101; rather they have stimulatory effect on the growth of the microorganism and ABE production.     

Butanol production from corncob residue using Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052

Aims: Not all lactic acid bacteria possess the ability to confer health benefits for the host. Thus, it becomes necessary to screen and characterize numerous strains to obtain ideal probiotics. Here, two Lactobacillus plantarum strains (CECT 7315 and CECT 7316) were isolated and characterized. Methods and Results: In vitro and in vivo tests were carried out for demonstrating the abilities as probiotics of CECT 7315/CECT 7316 Lact. plantarum strains. Both strains showed high ability to survive at gastro‐intestinal tract conditions and to adhere to intestinal epithelial cells, as well as great inhibitory activity against a wide range of enteropathogens and ability to induce the production of anti‐inflammatory cytokine IL‐10. Conclusions: Lactobacillus plantarum CECT 7315/CECT 7316 because of their potential probiotic properties could be excellent candidates for being tested in clinical trials aimed to demonstrate beneficial effects on human health. Significance and Impact of the Study: Probiotics are live micro‐organisms that confer a health benefit for the host. However, not all the lactic acid bacteria possess the ability to confer health benefits for the host. In this study, two Lact. plantarum strains (CECT 7315 and CECT 7316) were isolated and characterized to demonstrate their excellent qualities as potential probiotic strains.     

Molecular genetics and the initiation of solventogenesis in Clostridium beijerinckii (formerly Clostridium acetobutylicum) NCIMB 8052

Abstract: A physical map of the Clostridium beijerinckii (formerly Clostridium acetobutylicum ) NCIMB 8052 chromosome has been constructed, encompassing about 90 rare restriction sites. The 14 rrn operons together with 40 genes have been assigned positions on the map. Genetic analysis and gene transfer have been developed in this organism to enable in vivo analysis of the roles of cloned genes using marker replacement technology. Experiments using the available genetic tools have shown that spo0A plays a cardinal role in controlling several aspects of the transition from exponential growth to stationary phase in C. beijerinckii . These include initiation of sporulation, accumulation of the storage polysaccharide, granulose, and production of acetone and butanol. Several C. beijerinckii and C. acetobutylicum genes concerned with fermentative metabolism, whose expression is modulated at the onset of solventogenesis, contain sequence motifs resembling 0A boxes in their 5' regulatory regions. This invites the speculation that they are under direct control of Spo0A, and additional data are now required to test this prediction.     

Development of a cost-effective glucose-corn steep medium for production of butanol by Clostridium beijerinckii

Corn steep water (CSW) medium (1.6% solids plus 6% glucose) was evaluated for growth and butanol production by Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 wild-type and hyper-amylolytic, hyper-butanol-producing mutant strain BA101. CSW alone was not a suitable substrate, whereas addition of glucose supported growth and butanol production by both strains. In a batch-scale fermentation using an optimized 6% glucose-1.6% solids CSW medium, C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and strain BA101 produced 10.7 g L⁻¹ and 14.5 g L⁻¹ of butanol, respectively. The total solvents (acetone, butanol, and ethanol) produced by C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and strain BA101 were 14 g L⁻¹ and 20 g L⁻¹, respectively. Initial fermentation in small-scale flasks containing 6% maltodextrin-1.6% solids concentration CSW medium resulted in 6 g L⁻¹ and 12.6 g L⁻¹ of butanol production by C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and strain BA101, respectively. CSW can serve as an economic source of nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and other nutrients. Thus, it is feasible to use 6% glucose-1.6% solids CSW medium in place of semi-defined P2 medium. Received 9 February 1998/ Accepted in revised form 1 September 1998     

Butanol production by Clostridium beijerinckii. Part I: use of acid and enzyme hydrolyzed corn fiber

Fermentation of sulfuric acid treated corn fiber hydrolysate (SACFH) inhibited cell growth and butanol production (1.7 ± 0.2 g/L acetone butanol ethanol or ABE) by Clostridium beijerinckii BA101. Treatment of SACFH with XAD-4 resin removed some of the inhibitors resulting in the production of 9.3 ± 0.5 g/L ABE and a yield of 0.39 ± 0.015. Fermentation of enzyme treated corn fiber hydrolysate (ETCFH) did not reveal any cell inhibition and resulted in the production of 8.6 ± 1.0 g/L ABE and used 24.6 g/L total sugars. ABE production from fermentation of 25 g/L glucose and 25 g/L xylose was 9.9 ± 0.4 and 9.6 ± 0.4 g/L, respectively, suggesting that the culture was able to utilize xylose as efficiently as glucose. Production of only 9.3 ± 0.5 g/L ABE (compared with 17.7 g/L ABE from fermentation of 55 g/L glucose-control) from the XAD-4 treated SACFH suggested that some fermentation inhibitors may still be present following treatment. It is suggested that inhibitory components be completely removed from the SACFH prior to fermentation with C. beijerinckii BA101. In our fermentations, an ABE yield ranging from 0.35 to 0.39 was obtained, which is higher than reported by the other investigators.
