Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of acid-pretreated rapeseed meal for succinic acid production using Actinobacillus succinogenes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Rapeseed meal was evaluated for succinic acid production by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using Actinobacillus succinogenes ATCC 55618. Diluted sulfuric acid pretreatment and subsequent hydrolysis with pectinase was used to release sugars from rapeseed meal. The effects of culture pH, pectinase loading and yeast extract concentration on succinic acid production were investigated. When simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of diluted acid pretreated rapeseed meal with a dry matter content of 12.5% (w/v) was performed at pH 6.4 and a pectinase loading of 2% (w/w, on dry matter) without supplementation of yeast extract, a succinic acid concentration of 15.5 g/L was obtained at a yield of 12.4 g/100g dry matter. Fed-batch simultaneous saccharification and fermentation was carried out with supplementation of concentrated pretreated rapeseed meal and pectinase at 18 and 28 h to yield a final dry matter content of 20.5% and pectinase loading of 2%, with the succinic acid concentration enhanced to 23.4 g/L at a yield of 11.5 g/100g dry matter and a productivity of 0.33 g/(Lh). This study suggests that rapeseed meal may be an alternative substrate for the efficient production of succinic acid by A. succinogenes without requiring nitrogen source supplementation. 相似文献

Abstract A protocol of protoplast isolation from Egyptian varieties of pea and bean is reported. Protoplast cultures were established from apical shoots of pea (Pisum sativum) and suspension cultures of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). To isolate protoplasts of pea, apical shoot tissues were digested for 10 h using enzyme solution containing 1% pectinase, 0.5% cellulase, 0.5% hemicellulase, 10% mannitol and 0.1% CaCl2-2H2O. For protoplast isolation from suspension culture of bean, collected cells were incubated for 6 h in digestion solution containing 0.5% pectinase, 0.25% of each of cellulase and hemicellulase, 10% mannitol and 0.1% CaCl2-2H2O. Purified protoplasts were cultured in liquid culture medium. Microcalli were obtained after 30 days of culture. Calli colonies with a diameter of about 5 mm were developed after one month of culturing on solid B5 medium containing 2% sucrose, 2 g/l casein hydrolysate, 0.7% agar and supplemented with either 1 mg/l of each 2,4-D and kin in case of pea or 2 mg/l 2,4-D+0.5 mg/l kin in case of bean. Protoplast derived callus of pea was successfully differentiated into shoot and root, and highest frequency of shoot organogenesis was recorded on medium containing 0.5 mg/l NAA+2 mg/l BA. Protoplast derived callus of bean, on the other hand, gave rise to a high frequency of root formation when cultured on medium containing 1 mg/l NAA, but attempts to regenerate shoots from this callus was unsuccessfull. 相似文献

(i) Omission of L-methionine from the medium resulted in an 80% population reduction. Substitution of D,L-homocysteine corrected methionine deficiency in C. briggsae in the presence of supraoptimal vitamin B12 and folic acid. (ii) An absolute vitamin B12 requirement in C. briggsae developed in the medium containing homocysteine at the second subculture. Concentration of 6 ng/ml of vitamin B12 (at 100 ng/ml of folic acid) was sufficient to support maximum growth of C. briggsae in the medium containing homocysteine. (iii) It was found that either supraoptimal folic acid (2000 ng/ml) or supraoptimal vitamin B12 (3750 ng/ml), with homocysteine, supported very little population growth of C. briggsae. However, supraoptimal folic acid and supraoptimal vitamin B12 together supported a maximum population growth. Therefore, it was concluded that both vitamin B12 and folic acid were required for the biosynthesis of methionine from homocysteine. Studies also showed that the two vitamins spared each other for population growth in the medium containing homocysteine. 相似文献

In the process of producing ethanol from lignocellulosic materials such as wheat straw, compounds that can act inhibitory to enzymatic hydrolysis and to cellular growth may be generated during the pretreatment. Ethanol production was evaluated on pretreated wheat straw hydrolysate using four different recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, CPB.CR4, CPB.CB4, F12, and FLX. The fermentation performance of the four S. cerevisiae strains was tested in hydrolysate of wheat straw that has been pretreated at high dry matter content (220 g/L dry matter). The results clearly showed that F12 was the most robust strain, whereas the other three strains were strongly inhibited when the fraction of hydrolysate in the fermentation medium was higher than 60% (v/v). Furthermore, the impact of different lignin derivatives commonly found in the hydrolysate of pretreated wheat straw, was tested on two different enzyme mixtures, a mixture of Celluclast 1.5 L FG and Novozym 188 (3:1) and one crude enzyme preparation produced from Penicillium brasilianum IBT 20888. From all the potential inhibiting compounds that were tested, formic acid had the most severe influence on the hydrolysis rate resulting in a complete inactivation of the two enzyme mixtures. 相似文献

Oil production by oleaginous yeasts using the hydrolysate from pretreatment of wheat straw with dilute sulfuric acid 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper explores the use of the hydrolysate from the dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment of wheat straw for microbial oil production. The resulting hydrolysate was composed of pentoses (24.3 g/L) and hexoses (4.9 g/L), along with some other degradation products, such as acetic acid, furfural, and hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Five oleaginous yeast strains, Cryptococcus curvatus, Rhodotorula glutinis, Rhodosporidium toruloides, Lipomyces starkeyi, and Yarrowia lipolytica, were evaluated by using this hydrolysate as substrates. The results showed that all of these strains could use the detoxified hydrolysate to produce lipids while except R. toruloides non-detoxified hydrolysate could also be used for the growth of all of the selective yeast strains. C. curvatus showed the highest lipid concentrations in medium on both the detoxified (4.2 g/L) and non-detoxified (5.8 g/L) hydrolysates. And the inhibitory effect studies on C. curvatus indicated HMF had insignificant impacts at a concentration of up to 3 g/L while furfural inhibited cell growth and lipid content by 72.0% and 62.0% at 1 g/L, respectively. Our work demonstrates that lipid production is a promising alternative to utilize hemicellulosic sugars obtained during pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials. 相似文献

The saccharification process of swine manure by conventional and microwave-assisted acid pretreated were investigated using
cellulose enzymes, respectively. The optima for microwave-assisted acid pretreated swine manure is achieved when swine manure
of 50 g l−1 of substrate concentration and water amount 40 ml was pretreated by 4% H2SO4 concentration with 445 W microwave powers for 30 min at pretreatment period, and temperature 50 °C, enzyme loading 2 mg g−1 substrate, substrate concentration 5 g l−1 and initial medium pH 4.8 at enzymes hydrolysis period by microwave-assisted acid pretreated, respectively. The optimal conditions
by conventional acid pretreated is obtained when 50 g l−1 swine manure was submerged in 40 ml, 4% H2SO4 maintained at 130 °C for 3 h at pretreatment period, and temperature 45 °C, enzyme loading 2 mg g−1 substrate, substrate concentration 15 g l−1 and initial medium pH 5.2 at enzymes hydrolysis period, respectively. Under the optimum conditions microwave-assisted acid
pretreatment could achieve higher yield of reducing sugar, short reaction time, and lower energy consumption than from the
conventional acid pretreatment, which indicates that microwave-assisted acid pretreatment is more suitable for swine manure
pretreatment than by acid alone. 相似文献

After crude protein of the marine yeast strains maintained in this laboratory was estimated by the method of Kjehldahl, we
found that the G7a strain which was identified to be a strain of Cryptococcus aureus according to the routine identification and molecular methods contained high level of protein and could grow on a wide range
of carbon sources. The optimal medium for single-cell protein production was seawater containing 6.0 g of wet weight of Jerusalem
artichoke extract per 100 ml of medium and 4.0 g of the hydrolysate of soybean meal per 100 ml of medium, while the optimal
conditions for single-cell protein production were pH 5.0 and 28.0°C. After fermentation for 56 h, 10.1 g of cell dry weight
per liter of medium and 53.0 g of crude protein per 100 g of cell dry weight (5.4 g/l of medium) were achieved, leaving 0.05 g
of reducing sugar per 100 ml of medium and 0.072 g of total sugar per 100 ml of medium total sugar in the fermented medium.
The yeast strain only contained 2.1 g of nucleic acid per 100 g of cell dry weight, but its cells contained a large amount
of C16:0 (19.0%), C18:0 (46.3%), and C18:1 (33.3%) fatty acids and had a large amount of essential amino acids, especially lysine (12.6%) and leucine (9.1%), and vitamin
C (2.2 mg per 100 g of cell dry weight). These results show that the new marine yeast strain was suitable for single-cell
protein production. 相似文献

Scale-up study of oxalic acid pretreatment of agricultural lignocellulosic biomass for the production of bioethanol 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Building on our laboratory-scale optimization, oxalic acid was used to pretreat corncobs on the pilot-scale. The hydrolysate obtained after washing the pretreated biomass contained 32.55 g/l of xylose, 2.74 g/l of glucose and low concentrations of inhibitors. Ethanol production, using Scheffersomyces stipitis, from this hydrolysate was 10.3 g/l, which approached the predicted value of 11.9 g/l. Diafiltration using a membrane system effectively reduced acetic acid in the hydrolysate, which increased the fermentation rate. The hemicellulose content of the recovered solids decreased from 27.86% before pretreatment to only 6.76% after pretreatment. Most of the cellulose remained in the pretreated biomass. The highest ethanol production after simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of washed biomass with S. stipitis was 21.1 g/l. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to efficiently convert oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber (OPEFB), one of the most commonly generated lingo-wastes in Southeast Asia, into both cellulase and bioethanol. The unprocessed cellulase crude (37.29 %) produced under solid-state fermentation using OPEFB as substrate showed a better reducing sugar yield using filter paper than the commercial enzyme blend (34.61 %). Organosolv pretreatment method could efficiently reduce hemicellulose (24.3–18.6 %) and lignin (35.2–22.1 %) content and increase cellulose content (40.5–59.3 %) from OPEFB. Enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated OPEFB using the crude cellulase with 20 % solid content, enzyme loading of 15 FPU/g OPEFB at 50 °C, and pH 5.5 resulted in a OPEFB hydrolysate containing 36.01 g/L glucose after 72 h. Fermentation of the hydrolysate medium produced 17.64 g/L ethanol with 0.49 g/g yield from glucose and 0.088 g/g yield from OPEFB at 8 h using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. 相似文献

Coastal bermudagrass was pretreated by a low-temperature ammonia fiber explosion (AFEX) process, which soaked the grass in liquid ammonia and then explosively released the pressure. Saccharifying enzymes were systematically applied to the AFEX-treated grass corresponding to low, medium, and high loadings of cellulase/hemicellulase (from Trichoderma reesei), cellobiase, glucoamylase, and pectinase. Three-day sugar yields linearly correlated with the logarithm of the cellulase loading. Supplemental enzymes (cellobiase, pectinase) caused upward shifts in the lines. The linearity and upward shifts are consistent with the HCH-1 model of cellulose hydrolysis. The hydrolysis sugars were converted to ethanol using yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The solid residues were treated with proteases to attempt recovery of valuable proteins. The low-temperature AFEX pretreatment was able o nearly double sugar yields. At the highest cellulase loadings (30 IU/g), the best reducing sugar and ethanol yields were 53% and 44% of the maximum potential, respectively. Protein recovery was, at most, 59% (c) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Conversion of olive tree biomass into fermentable sugars by dilute acid pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The production of fermentable sugars from olive tree biomass was studied by dilute acid pretreatment and further saccharification of the pretreated solid residues. Pretreatment was performed at 0.2%, 0.6%, 1.0% and 1.4% (w/w) sulphuric acid concentrations while temperature was in the range 170-210 degrees C. Attention is paid to sugar recovery both in the liquid fraction issued from pretreatment (prehydrolysate) and that in the water-insoluble solid (WIS). As a maximum, 83% of hemicellulosic sugars in the raw material were recovered in the prehydrolysate obtained at 170 degrees C, 1% sulphuric acid concentration, but the enzyme accessibility of the corresponding pretreated solid was not very high. In turn, the maximum enzymatic hydrolysis yield (76.5%) was attained from a pretreated solid (at 210 degrees C, 1.4% acid concentration) in which cellulose solubilization was detected; moreover, sugar recovery in the prehydrolysate was the poorest one among all the experiments performed. To take account of fermentable sugars generated by pretreatment and the glucose released by enzymatic hydrolysis, an overall sugar yield was calculated. The maximum value (36.3 g sugar/100 g raw material) was obtained when pretreating olive tree biomass at 180 degrees C and 1% sulphuric acid concentration, representing 75% of all sugars in the raw material. Dilute acid pretreatment improves results compared to water pretreatment. 相似文献

Kinetic behavior of Candida guilliermondii yeast during xylitol production from Brewer's spent grain hemicellulosic hydrolysate 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Brewer's spent grain, the main byproduct of breweries, was hydrolyzed with dilute sulfuric acid to produce a hemicellulosic hydrolysate (containing xylose as the main sugar). The obtained hydrolysate was used as cultivation medium by Candidaguilliermondii yeast in the raw form (containing 20 g/L xylose) and after concentration (85 g/L xylose), and the kinetic behavior of the yeast during xylitol production was evaluated in both media. Assays in semisynthetic media were also performed to compare the yeast performance in media without toxic compounds. According to the results, the kinetic behavior of the yeast cultivated in raw hydrolysate was as effective as in semisynthetic medium containing 20 g/L xylose. However, in concentrated hydrolysate medium, the xylitol production efficiency was 30.6% and 42.6% lower than in raw hydrolysate and semisynthetic medium containing 85 g/L xylose, respectively. In other words, the xylose-to-xylitol bioconversion from hydrolysate medium was strongly affected when the initial xylose concentration was increased; however, similar behavior did not occur from semisynthetic media. The lowest efficiency of xylitol production from concentrated hydrolysate can be attributed to the high concentration of toxic compounds present in this medium, resulting from the hydrolysate concentration process. 相似文献

Ethanol fermentation of acid-hydrolyzed cellulosic pyrolysate with Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The acid hydrolysis of cellulosic pyrolysate to glucose and its fermentation to ethanol were investigated. The maximum glucose yield (17.4%) was obtained by the hydrolysis with 0.2 mol sulfuric acid per liter pyrolysate using autoclaving at 121 degrees C for 20 min. The fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae of a hydrolysate medium containing 31.6 g/l glucose gave 14.2 g/l ethanol in 24 h, whereas the fermentation of the medium containing 31.6 g/l pure glucose gave 13.7 g/l ethanol in 18 h. The results showed that the acid-hydrolyzed pyrolysate could be used for ethanol production. Different nitrogen sources were evaluated and the best ethanol concentration (15.1 g/l) was achieved by single urea. S. cerevisiae (R) was obtained by adaptation of S. cerevisiae to the hydrolysate medium for 12 times, and 40.2 g/l ethanol was produced by S. cerevisiae (R) in the fermentation with the hydrolysate medium containing 95.8 g/l glucose, which was about 47% increase in ethanol production compared to its parent strain. 相似文献

Immense interest has been devoted to the production of bulk chemicals from lignocellulose biomass. Diluted sulfuric acid treatment is currently one of the main pretreatment methods. However, the low total sugar concentration obtained via such pretreatment limits industrial fermentation systems that use lignocellulosic hydrolysate. Sugarcane bagasse hemicellulose hydrolysate is used as the carbon and nitrogen sources to achieve a green and economical production of succinic acid in this study. Sugarcane bagasse was ultrasonically pretreated for 40 min, with 43.9 g/L total sugar obtained after dilute acid hydrolysis. The total sugar concentration increased by 29.5 %. In a 3-L fermentor, using 30 g/L non-detoxified total sugar as the carbon source, succinic acid production increased to 23.7 g/L with a succinic acid yield of 79.0 % and a productivity of 0.99 g/L/h, and 60 % yeast extract in the medium could be reduced. Compared with the detoxified sugar preparation method, succinic acid production and yield were improved by 20.9 and 20.2 %, respectively. 相似文献

Different cultural parameters that regulate pectinolytic enzyme production in vitro by Trametes trogii were studied. When grown in a medium containing pectin, T. trogii produced extracellular polymethylgalacturonase, polygalacturonase and pectin lyase but no pectate lyase activity. No significant differences in the maximum enzyme activities measured were observed with the addition of xylan, carboxymethylcellulose or both to the medium containing pectin. The addition of glucose to that medium considerably decreases all the activities studied, and in a medium with glucose as the sole carbon source no galacturonase activity could be measured, and pectin lyase activity was at its minimum. The low synthesis of pectin lyase in cultures containing glucose suggests that this enzyme is constitutive in contrast to the polygalacturonases that were not detected. The increase in pectin concentration stimulated growth and enzyme production. The highest specific activities were attained with the greatest concentration tested (15 g/l). Casamino acids were the best nitrogen source for enzyme production. Maximum growth was measured at pH 3.3; pH values of around 4.5 stimulated enzyme production, but high pectinase activities were also detected in media with more alkaline initial pH values (6.2 for galacturonases and 6.6 for lyases), probably owing to the specific induction of particular isoforms. In the range of 23 to 28°C, good results were obtained in growth as well as in enzyme production. The addition of Tween 80 promoted growth and gave the highest yield of polymethylgalacturonase and pectin lyase (0.37 and 36.2 E.U./ml, respectively). The highest polygalacturonase activity (1.1 E.U/ml) was achieved with polyethylene glycol. Tween 20 and Triton X-100 inhibited growth and pectinase production. 相似文献

Soybean straw was pretreated with either liquid hot water (LHW) (170-210 °C for 3-10 min) or alkaline soaking (4-40 g NaOH/100 g dry straw) at room temperature to evaluate the effects on cellulose digestibility. Nearly 100% cellulose was recovered in pretreated solids for both pretreatment methods. For LHW pretreatment, xylan dissolution from the raw material increased with pretreatment temperature and time. Cellulose digestibility was correlated with xylan dissolution. A maximal glucose yield of 70.76%, corresponding to 80% xylan removal, was obtained with soybean straw pretreated at 210 °C for 10 min. NaOH soaking at ambient conditions removed xylan up to 46.37% and the subsequent glucose yield of pretreated solids reached up to 64.55%. Our results indicated LHW pretreatment was more effective than NaOH soaking for improving cellulose digestibility of soybean straw. 相似文献

The suitability of some natural and artificial substrates as oviposition sites for the insidious flower bug, Orius insidiosus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A variety of natural and artificial substrates were tested for their suitability as oviposition sites for the predatory anthocorid bug Orius insidiosus. The bugs oviposited into models of beans constructed from Parafilm, but none of the eggs laid into these models hatched. In choice tests, beans stems were preferred to both bean pods and potato sprouts. Hatching rates at 100% r.h. were highest (59%) for bean pods and significantly lower for both potato sprouts (39%) and bean stems (29%). At 60% r.h., hatching rates for bean pods (39%), bean stems (34%) and potato sprouts (33%) were similar. At 30% r.h. hatching rates for all three substrates were less than 15%. The results suggest that bean stems can be used successfully as an alternative to bean pods for the mass rearing of these biological control agents. 相似文献

Significant improvements were achieved in the production of haploid and doubled haploid plants from isolated microspore culture
of wheat c.v. Chris on a defined media. Procedures found to be of benefit included: A 7-day pretreatment of anthers in 0.4M mannitol plus the macronutrients from FHG medium; the inclusion of 4.5 mg/liter abscisic acid in the pretreatment solution;
the isolation of microspores from pretreated anthers by vortexing; and the use of phenylacetic acid (PAA) as the auxin source
in MS medium. The best response was achieved with 4.0 mg/liter PAA in MS medium containing 90 g/liter maltose as the sugar
source. Under these conditions, 68% of viable microspores underwent division, and an average of 93 embryos and 92 green plants
were regenerated per 100 anthers used. The root-tip chromosome number and the fertility of 114 regenerating green plants revealed
that 75% were completely fertile spontaneously doubled haploids. 相似文献

Addition of casein hydrolysate to suspensions of washed, nonpigmented, nonproliferating Serratia marcescens incubating at 27 C induced biosynthesis of prodigiosin. Four amino acids of casein hydrolysate, dl-aspartic acid, l-glutamic acid, l-proline, and l-alanine caused formation of pigment when added individually. dl-Ornithine also was effective. Optimal concentrations for maximal pigmentation were 5 to 10 mg/ml; at these high concentrations, d-serine also induced biosynthesis of some prodigiosin. dl-Alanine and -ornithine were as effective as the l-iosomers, but l-glutamic acid and l-proline gave better responses than their racemic mixtures. Kinetics of prodigiosin biosynthesis after addition of dl-alanine (20 mg/ml) were similar to those of cells suspended in 0.2% casein hydrolysate. The other amino acids were less effective. Addition of 5 mg of dl-alanine or casein hydrolysate per ml to minimal medium increased by 30% the amount of prodigiosin formed by growing cells after incubation for 7 days at 27 C. Cultures grown for 7 days at 27 C in 0.2% casein hydrolsate formed more prodigiosin than did suspensions of nonproliferating cells containing individual amino acids or casein hydrolysate. However, more pigment was produced by cells suspended in l-alanine (5 mg/ml) or l-proline (10 mg/ml) than when suspended in 0.4% natural or synthetic casein hydrolysate. Filtrates from suspensions of nonproliferating cells forming pigment in l-proline induced more rapid formation of prodigiosin, but filtrates from suspensions in dl-alanine did not. The data supported the hypothesis that pyrrole groups of prodigiosin may be synthesized from 5-carbon amino acids such as proline, ornithine, aspartic, and glutamic acids, but the role of alanine is unknown. 相似文献
