Data from electric particle analysis, light diffraction and flow cytometry analysis provide information on changes in cell morphology. Here, we report analyses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations growing in a batch culture using these techniques. The size distributions were determined by electric particle analysis and by light diffraction in order to compare their outcomes. Flow cytometry parameters forward (related to cell size) and side (related to cell granularity) scatter were also determined to complement this information. These distributions of yeast properties were analysed statistically and by a complexity index. The cell size of Saccharomyces at the lag phase was smaller than that at the beginning of the exponential phase, whereas during the stationary phase, the cell size converged with the values observed during the lag phase. These experimental techniques, when used together, allow us to distinguish among and characterize the cell size, cell granularity and the structure of the yeast population through the three growth phases. Flow cytometry patterns are better than light diffraction and electric particle analysis in showing the existence of subpopulations during the different phases, especially during the stationary phase. The use of a complexity index in this context helped to differentiate these phases and confirmed the yeast cell heterogeneity. 相似文献

Properties of attachment of Mycobacterium marinum to hydrophobic surfaces and subsequent␣biofilm formation were investigated. Binding of M. marinum to polypropylene occured under aerobic and anaerobic/microaerophilic conditions. However, aerobic conditions were necessary
for biofilms to persist. Highly non-polar organic solvents were found to efficiently remove attached bacteria from the polypropylene
surface, indicating strong hydrophobic interactions between the M. marinum cell wall and the surface. Increased capsular material, occurring during stationary phase, correlated with a decrease in
attachment of cells to polypropylene. A protein of approximately 40 kDa appears to be present in increased amounts during
the stationary phase. The protein has been identified by LC MS/MS analysis as alanine dehydrogenase. 相似文献

Biodegradation of textile azo dye by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Shewanella decolorationis</Emphasis> S12 under microaerophilic conditions 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The complete biodegradation of azo dye, Fast Acid Red GR, was observed under microaerophilic conditions by Shewanella decolorationis S12. Although the highest decolorizing rate was measured under anaerobic condition and the highest biomass was obtained under
aerobic condition, a further biodegradation of decolorizing products can only be achieved under microaerophilic conditions.
Under microaerophilic conditions, S. decolorationis S12 could use a range of carbon sources for azo dye decolorization, including lactate, formate, glucose and sucrose, with
lactate being the optimal carbon source. Sulfonated aromatic amines were not detected during the biotransformation of Fast
Acid Red GR, while H2S formed. The decolorizing products, aniline, 1,4-diaminobenzene and 1-amino-2-naphthol, were followed by complete biodegradation
through catechol and 4-aminobenzoic acid based on the analysis results of GC-MS and HPLC. 相似文献

Aim: The goal of this study was to compare the degradation of hexahydro‐1,3,5‐trinitro‐1,3,5‐triazine (RDX) by three Rhodococcus strains under anaerobic, microaerophilic (<0·04 mg l?1 dissolved oxygen) and aerobic (dissolved oxygen (DO) maintained at 8 mg l?1) conditions. Methods and Results: Three Rhodococcus strains were incubated with no, low and ambient concentrations of oxygen in minimal media with succinate as the carbon source and RDX as the sole nitrogen source. RDX and RDX metabolite concentrations were measured over time. Under microaerophilic conditions, the bacteria degraded RDX, albeit about 60‐fold slower than under fully aerobic conditions. Only the breakdown product, 4‐nitro‐2,4‐diazabutanal (NDAB) accumulated to measurable concentrations under microaerophilic conditions. RDX degraded quickly under both aerated and static aerobic conditions (DO allowed to drop below 1 mg l?1) with the accumulation of both NDAB and methylenedinitramine (MEDINA). No RDX degradation was observed under strict anaerobic conditions. Conclusions: The Rhodococcus strains did not degrade RDX under strict anaerobic conditions, while slow degradation was observed under microaerophilic conditions. The RDX metabolite NDAB was detected under both microaerophilic and aerobic conditions, while MEDINA was detected only under aerobic conditions. Impact and Significance of the Study: This work confirmed the production of MEDINA under aerobic conditions, which has not been previously associated with aerobic RDX degradation by these organisms. More importantly, it demonstrated that aerobic rhodococci are able to degrade RDX under a broader range of oxygen concentrations than previously reported. 相似文献

An intergeneric osmotolerant hybrid yeast, PB2, was used together with the parental strains to study glycerol and arabitol
production in batch culture. This fusion product was previously obtained by protoplast fusion between Torulaspora delbrueckii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Polyols and biomass production were determined in batch culture under aerobic conditions. Under the conditions tested, using
PB2 hybrid and both parental strains, the best results were obtained with the hybrid. Arabitol reached a final concentration
of 70 g/l and glycerol was increased to up to 50 g/l.

WhereasSaccharomyces cerevisiae when grown in continuous culture under anaerobic conditions requires ergosterol,Schizosaccharomyces japonicus (syn.Sch. versatilis) can grow without this substance; sporulation is under anaerobic conditions hardly less prolific than under aerobic conditions.The ergosterol content of anaerobically grown cells ofSch. japonicus was only 0.01 %, that of aerobically grown cells 0.24%. Under anaerobic conditions, cell growth was hardly affected by the polyene antibiotic pimaricin; under aerobic conditions,Sch. japonicus is about as sensitive asS. cerevisiae. Qualitatively, the antagonistic effect of ergosterol on pimaricin action is the same inSch. japonicus and inS. cerevisiae.The relation between ergosterol content and the polyene sensitivity strongly confirms existing views (see Kinsky, 1967) on the mechanism of action of polyene antibiotics.The skilful technical assistance of Miss Marry Reinink is gratefully acknowledged. 相似文献

Ultrastructural organization of the aerobic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica was studied under conditions of oxidative, heat, and ethanol stresses. It was shown that the following uniform changes in
cell ultrastructure did not depend on the type of stress: enlargement of mitochondria, enhanced number and enlargement of
peroxisomes, and formation of lipid granules. Similar ultrastructural changes also occurred during the transition of cells
to the stationary growth phase. It was shown for the first time that accumulation of polyphosphate granules occurred as a
stress response in yeasts. Moreover, numerous globular structures of unknown nature appeared on the cell wall surface under
oxidative or heat stress. Under ethanol stress, the cells developed clearly marked deep invaginations of the cytoplasmic membrane.
(The same changes in the cytoplasmic membrane were observed in the cells grown on ethanol.) Variations of the cell envelope
structure along with the formation of polyphosphate granules were not observed in the stationary growth phase. Ultrastructural
changes in the cells under stress conditions are in agreement with the previous data on survival, respiratory activity, and
variations of the antioxidant systems. 相似文献

The plasma membrane H+-ATPase activity was determined under various growth conditions using the yeastsSaccharomyces cerevisiae andSchizosaccharomyces pombe. Under early batch-growth conditions in a rich medium, the budding yeastS. cerevisiae ATPase specific activity increased 2-to 3-fold during exponential growth. During late exponential growth, a peak of ATPase
activity, followed by a sudden decrease, was observed and termed “growth-arrest control”. The growth arrest phenomenon ofS. cerevisiae could not be related to the acidification of the culture medium or to glucose exhaustion in the medium or to variation of
glucose activation of the H+-ATPase. Addition of ammonium to a proline minimum medium also stimulated transiently the ATPase activity ofS. cerevisiae. Specific activity of the fission yeastS. pombe ATPase did not show a similar profile and steadily increased to reach a plateau in stationary growth. Under synchronous mitotic
growth conditions, the ATPase activity ofS. cerevisiae increased during the cell division cycle according to the “peak” type cycle, while that ofS. pombe was of the “step” type. 相似文献

Summary
Halobacterium cutirubrum was successfully cultivated under aerobic and microaerobic conditions. The early stationary phase of growth was obtained at 2.2 days and 45–55 days for aerated and non-aerated cultures, respectively. The dry cell yields were 0.7–1.2 gm/l in all preparations grown to early stationary growth phase. The cellular ratio of squalene to dihydro- and tetra-hydrosqualene decreased proportionately with decreased aeration rates. 相似文献

The production of volatile compounds by Dipodascus aggregatus was studied in relation to the oxygen concentration in the medium. Oxygen concentration was determined with a Clark oxygen electrode and volatile compounds in the atmosphere above the culture by a gas chromatographic technique. Shake cultures of the fungus in its stationary phase of growth were very sensitive to a decrease in oxygen concentration in the presence of residual glucose. Anaerobic conditions induced production of volatile compounds that continued for many hours. The pattern of production of volatile compounds observed under conditions of low oxygen concentration during the stationary phase of growth differed from that obtained under aerobic conditions during the exponential phase of growth. 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

Evidence is submitted that glucose is found in a chemically unaltered form in cells ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae RXII incubated with glucose, if the culture is grown under aerobic conditions at 30°C and is in the logarithmic phase of growth at the moment of harvesting. Under these conditions, the course of formation of a glucose steady state can be studied under aerobic and anaerobic incubation conditions. The steady state glucose concentration in the cells is the linear function of the glucose concentration in the medium. 相似文献

The purple nonsulfur bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum has been employed to study physiological adaptation to limiting oxygen tensions (microaerophilic conditions). R. rubrum produces maximal levels of photosynthetic membranes when grown with both succinate and fructose as carbon sources under microaerophilic conditions in comparison to the level (only about 20% of the maximum) seen in the absence of fructose. Employing a unique partial O2 pressure (pO2) control strategy to reliably adjust the oxygen tension to values below 0.5%, we have used bioreactor cultures to investigate the metabolic rationale for this effect. A metabolic profile of the central carbon metabolism of these cultures was obtained by determination of key enzyme activities under microaerophilic as well as aerobic and anaerobic phototrophic conditions. Under aerobic conditions succinate and fructose were consumed simultaneously, whereas oxygen-limiting conditions provoked the preferential breakdown of fructose. Fructose was utilized via the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway. High levels of pyrophosphate-dependent phosphofructokinase activity were found to be specific for oxygen-limited cultures. No glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity was detected under any conditions. We demonstrate that NADPH is supplied mainly by the pyridine-nucleotide transhydrogenase under oxygen-limiting conditions. The tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes are present at significant levels during microaerophilic growth, albeit at lower levels than those seen under fully aerobic growth conditions. Levels of the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle marker enzyme fumarate reductase were also high under microaerophilic conditions. We propose a model by which the primary “switching” of oxidative and reductive metabolism is performed at the level of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and suggest how this might affect redox signaling and gene expression in R. rubrum. 相似文献

A cost-effective conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into bioethanol requires that the xylose released from the hemicellulose
fraction (20–40% of biomass) can be fermented. Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, efficiently ferments glucose but it lacks the ability to ferment xylose. Xylose-fermenting yeast such as Pichia stipitis requires accurately controlled microaerophilic conditions during the xylose fermentation, rendering the process technically
difficult and expensive. In this study, it is demonstrated that under anaerobic conditions Spathaspora passalidarum showed high ethanol production yield, fast cell growth, and rapid sugar consumption with xylose being consumed after glucose
depletion, while P. stipitis was almost unable to utilize xylose under these conditions. It is further demonstrated that for S. passalidarum, the xylose conversion takes place by means of NADH-preferred xylose reductase (XR) and NAD+-dependent xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH). Thus, the capacity of S. passalidarum to utilize xylose under anaerobic conditions is possibly due to the balance between the cofactor’s supply and demand through
this XR–XDH pathway. Only few XRs with NADH preference have been reported so far. 2-Deoxy glucose completely inhibited the
conversion of xylose by S. passalidarum under anaerobic conditions, but only partially did that under aerobic conditions. Thus, xylose uptake by S. passalidarum may be carried out by different xylose transport systems under anaerobic and aerobic conditions. The presence of glucose
also repressed the enzymatic activity of XR and XDH from S. passalidarum as well as the activities of those enzymes from P. stipitis. 相似文献

A metabolically engineered Escherichia coli strain SBS550MG (pHL413) was used in this study to investigate the impact of various culture operating conditions for improving
the specific succinate production rate for better final titer while maintaining the theoretical succinate yield on glucose
in multiphase fed-batch cultures. Previously, we reported that changes in the level of aeration during the cell growth phase
significantly modified gene expression profiles and metabolic fluxes in this system (Martinez et al. 2010). Based on these observations, the examination of culture conditions was mainly focused on the aerobic growth phase. It was
found that 2–5 h of low dissolved oxygen culture during the aerobic phase improves cell productivity, but pH control during
the aerobic phase was not favorable for the system. Cell viability has been identified as a major limiting factor for succinate
production. Supplementing LB medium and betaine, an anti-osmotic stress reagent, did not improve cell activity. A higher succinate
titer (537.8 mM) using the current metabolic engineering E. coli strain was achieved, which can potentially be improved further by increasing cell viability. 相似文献

Background
One of the most fascinating properties of the biotechnologically important organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae is its ability to perform simultaneous respiration and fermentation at high growth rate even under fully aerobic conditions. In the present work, this Crabtree effect called phenomenon was investigated in detail by comparative 13C metabolic flux analysis of S. cerevisiae growing under purely oxidative, respiro-fermentative and predominantly fermentative conditions. 相似文献18.
The metabolic pathway shift between only ethanol consumption to both sugar/ethanol consumption was measured by on-line analysis of respiratory quotient of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The experiments were carried out in a fed-batch culture under aerobic conditions. During the transition phase, respiratory quotient (RQ) profile shows that sugar can be metabolized through the fermentative pathway even to values of RQ lower than 1.Revisions requested; Revisions received 9 September 2004 相似文献

When protoplasts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae T7 and IFO 0309 are cultured in a static liquid culture at 2.5 × 106 protoplasts/ml, cell wall regeneration does not occur and cell wall components (CWC) are released into the culture broth.
By using a specialized fluorometer, the concentrations of CWC could be measured on the basis of the fluorescence intensity
of the CWC after staining with Fluostain I. The inoculum concentration, pH, and osmotic pressure of the medium were important
factors for the production of CWC in culture. Under optimal culture conditions, S. cerevisiae T7 protoplasts produced 0.91 mg/ml CWC after 24 h. The CWC induced the tumor necrosis factor-α production about 1.3 times
higher than that of the commercially available β-1,3/1,6-glucan from baker’s yeast cells. 相似文献

A superficially porous particle (SPP)‐based hydroxypropyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (HPBCD) chiral stationary phase (CSP) was produced and its chromatographic performance was compared to both 5 µm and 3 µm fully porous particle (FPP)‐based CSPs. The relative surface coverage of the HPBCD chiral selector on each particle was approximately equal, which resulted in equivalent enantiomeric selectivity (α) values on each phase when constant mobile phase conditions were used. Under such conditions, the SPP column resulted in greatly reduced analysis times and three times greater efficiencies compared to the FPP columns. When higher flow rates were used, efficiency gains per analysis times were five times greater for the SPP column compared to the FPP‐based columns. When the mobile phases were altered to give similar analysis times on each column, resolution values were doubled for the SPP column. Finally, the novel SPP based HPBCD column proved to be stable for 500 injections under high flow rate (4.5 mL/min) and high pressure (400 bar) conditions used for an ultrafast (~45 sec) enantiomeric separation.
