Recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae YKU 131 (capable of expressing glucoamylase) was used to produce ethanol from sago starch. The optimum C/N ratio for ethanol production by the recombinant yeast was 7.9, where 4.7 and 10.1 g/l ethanol was produced from 20 and 40 g/l sago starch, respectively. At sago starch concentration higher than 40 g/l and C/N ratio higher than 10.4, glucoamylase production and rate of starch hydrolysis were reduced, which in turn, reduced ethanol production significantly. The theoretical yield of ethanol based on sago starch consumed in fermentation using 40 g/l was 72.6%. This yield was slightly lower than those obtained in fermentation using soluble starch such as potato and corn starch, which ranged from 80–90% as reported in the literature. However, S. cerevisiae YKU 131 could only utilize 62% of the total amount of starch added to a medium.  相似文献

Direct fermentation of gelatinized sago starch into solvent (acetone–butanol–ethanol) by Clostridium acetobutylicum P262 was studied using a 250 ml Schott bottle anaerobic fermentation system. Total solvent production from fermentation using 30 g sago starch/l (11.03g/l) was comparable to fermentation using corn starch and about 2-fold higher than fermentation using potato or tapioca starch. At the range of sago starch concentration investigated (10–80 g/l), the highest total solvent production (18.82 g/l) was obtained at 50 g/l. The use of a mixture of organic and inorganic nitrogen source (yeast extract + NH4NO3) enhanced growth of C. acetobutylicum, starch hydrolysis and solvent production (24.47 g/l) compared to the use of yeast extract alone. This gave the yield based on sugar consumed of 0.45 g/g. Result from this study also showed that the individual concentrations of nitrogen and carbon influenced solvent production to a greater extent than did carbon to nitrogen (C/N) ratio.  相似文献

The quantitative effects of temperature, pH and time of fermentation were investigated on simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of ethanol from sago starch with glucoamylase (AMG) and Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 using a Box–Wilson central composite design protocol. The SSF process was studied using free enzyme and free cells and it was found that with sago starch, maximum ethanol concentration of 70.68 g/l was obtained using a starch concentration of 140 g/l, which represents an ethanol yield of 97.08%. The optimum conditions for the above yield were found to be a temperature of 36.74 °C, pH of 5.02 and time of fermentation of 17 h. Thus by using the central composite design, it is possible to determine the accurate values of the fermentation parameters where maximum production of ethanol occurs.  相似文献

Attempts were made to improve the growth of endophytic fungus Acremonium sp. and its raw sago starch degrading enzyme (RSSDE) production using different nitrogen and carbon sources at varying pH values and temperatures. It was observed that growth and enzyme activity levels were highest with peptone and sodium nitrate as the nitrogen sources and raw sago starch as the carbon source of which the optimum concentrations were 0.5 g/l, 3 g/l, and 20 g/l, respectively. Cell growth and RSSDE production reached their optimum at pH 5.0 and incubation temperature of 30 degrees C. Under these conditions, the enzyme production was significantly increased by 19- to 22-folds compared to the activity obtained in the original basal medium.  相似文献

Direct conversion of gelatinized sago starch into kojic acid byAspergillus flavus strain having amylolytic enzymes was carried out at two different scales of submerged batch fermentation in a 250-mL shake flask and in a 50-L stirred-tank fermentor. For comparison, fermentations were also carried out using glucose and glucose hydrolyzate from enzymic hydrolysis of sago starch as carbon sources. During kojic acid fermentation of starch, starch was first hydrolyzed to glucose by the action of α-amylase and glucoamylase during active growth phase. The glucose remaining during the production phase (non-growing phase) was then converted to kojic acid. Kojic acid production (23.5g/L) using 100 g/L sago starch in a shake flask was comparable to fermentation of glucose (31.5 g/L) and glucose hydrolyzate (27.9 g/L) but in the 50-L fermentor was greatly reduced due to non-optimal aeration conditions. Kojic acid production using glucose was higher in the 50-L fermentor than in the shake flask.  相似文献

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) activity was observed when the bacterium was grown in the medium at various initial pH values, containing carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and mineral salt sources at 50 °C for 24 h in the shake flasks. The optimisation of this growth medium was carried out using response surface methodology. The design contains a total of 32 experimental trials involving 10 star points and 6 replicates at the centre points. The design was employed by selecting sago starch, peptone from casein, K2HPO4, CaCl2 and initial pH as five independent variables in this study. The optimal calculated values of tested variables for maximal production of CGTase were found to be comprised of: sago starch, 16.02 g/l; peptone from casein, 20 g/l; K2HPO4, 1.4 g/l; CaCl2, 0.2 g/l and initial pH, 7.54 with a predicted CGTase activity of 14.20 U/ml. These predicted optimal parameters were tested in the laboratory and the final CGTase activity obtained was very close to the predicted value at 14.80 U/ml.  相似文献

Optimization of cyclodextrin production from sago starch   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Cyclodextrin (CD) is synthesized by bacterial cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) and is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and agricultural industries. In this study, Bacillus circulans CGTase was partially purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation at 50-70% saturation. The optimum pH and temperature for CD production from sago starch were found to be in the ranges of 4.5-5.0 and 55-60 degrees C, respectively. beta-CD was the predominant product, constituting 65% of all CD products. The beta-CD produced using partially purified and crude CGTase were compared and found to have no significant difference in yield and productivity. The appropriate proportion of CGTase to sago starch for beta-CD production was determined by response surface methodology. The most appropriate enzyme:substrate ratio was 50 U g sago starch(-1) CGTase and 60 g l(-1) sago starch.  相似文献

The production of itaconic acid from glucose-based media by Aspergillus terreus NRRL 1960 was found to be controlled by stirring rate and pH. When the phosphorous (P) level in the production medium was reduced to less than 10 mg l(-1), the fungal mycelium exhausted its primary growth and started to excrete itaconic acid, while it continued its secondary growth at the expense of ammoniacal nitrogen. The fermentation exhibited a mixed-growth-associated product formation kinetics, the non-growth associated production term (mI) being practically zero only when the pH was left free to change from 3.4 down to 1.85. On the contrary, when the pH was kept reducing up to a constant value by automatic addition of KOH 4 mol l(-1), the itaconate yield coefficient on the initial glucose supplied (Y(I/So)) and mI and were 0.53 g g(-1) and 0.028 h(-1) at pH 2.4 and 320 rev min(-1) and 0.5 g g(-1) and 0.036 h(-1) at pH 2.8 and 400 rev min(-1), respectively. Although the differences between mI and Y(I/So) were statistically insignificant at the 95% confidence level, the net difference in the corresponding yield coefficients for itaconic acid on mycelial biomass resulted in a maximum itaconate production rate of 0.41 g l(-1) h(-1) at pH 2.8 and 400 rev min(-1), thus showing that this operating condition is no doubt optimal for the process under study.  相似文献

A study of the kinetics and performance of solvent-yielding batch fermentation of individual sugars and their mixture derived from enzymic hydrolysis of sago starch byClostridium acetobutylicum showed that the use of 30 g/L gelatinized sago starch as the sole carbon source produced 11.2 g/L total solvent,i.e. 1.5–2 times more than with pure maltose or glucose used as carbon sources. Enzymic pretreatment of gelatinized sago starch yielding maltose and glucose hydrolyzates prior to the fermentation did not improve solvent production as compared to direct fermentation of gelatinized sago starch. The solvent yield of direct gelatinized sago starch fermentation depended on the activity and stability of amylolytic enzymes produced during the fermentation. The pH optima for α-amylase and glucoamylase were found to be at 5.3 and 4.0–4.4, respectively. α-Amylase showed a broad pH stability profile, retaining more than 80% of its maximum activity at pH 3.0–8.0 after a 1-d incubation at 37°C. SinceC. acetobutylicum α-amylase has a high activity and stability at low pH, this strain can potentially be employed in a one-step direct solvent-yielding fermentation of sago starch. However, theC. acetobutylicum glucoamylase was only stable at pH 4–5, maintaining more than 90% of its maximum activity after a 1-d incubation at 37°C.  相似文献

A potent itaconic acid producing strain, Aspergillus terreus SKR10, was isolated from horticulture waste. Market refuse, apple and banana, were explored as novel substrates for itaconic acid production with yields of 20+/-2.0 and 20.0+/-1.0 g l(-1), respectively. Itaconic acid yields of 28.5+/-2.2 and 31.0+/-1.7 g l(-1) were obtained with acid and alpha-amylase hydrolyzed corn starch. The efficiency of itaconic acid production by this wild type strain was improved by ultraviolet, chemical and mixed mutagenic treatments. Two high itaconic acid yielding mutants, N45 and UNCS1 were obtained by gradient plating. These two mutants were capable of producing twice the yield of itaconic acid as the parent strain.  相似文献

Low-cost sago starch was used as a carbon source for production of the exopolysaccharide kefiran by Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens. A simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process of sago starch for kefiran production was evaluated. Factors affecting the process such as an initial pH, temperature, starch concentration, including a mixture of α-amylase and glucoamylase were determined. The highest kefiran concentration of 0.85 g/l was obtained at the initial pH of 5.5, temperature of 30 °C, starch concentration of 4% and mixed-enzymes with activity of 100 U/g-starch. The use of a mixture of α-amylase and glucoamylase could enhance the productivity compared to the use of α-amylase alone. The optimal ratio of α-amylase to glucoamylase of 60:40 gave the highest kefiran production rate of 11.83 mg/l/h. This study showed that sago starch could serve as a low-cost substrate for kefiran production.  相似文献

Starchy materials such as corn starch, soft wheat flour, potato flour, cassava flour, sorghum starch, sweet potato and industrial potato flours, either acid or enzymatically hydrolysed, were used as substrates for itaconic acid production by Aspergillus terreus NRRL 1960. Both production and yield were highest on corn starch (18·4 g l−1 and 34·0%, respectively). The degree of hydrolysis had a great influence on acid production which was highest when corn starch was saccharified at 85 DE (dextrose equivalent). In a 3 litre benchtop fermenter, itaconic acid production and productivity were 19·8 g l−1 and 0·13 g l−1 h−1, respectively.  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

Summary Cassava and sago starch were evaluated for their feasibilities as substrates for ethanol production using Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 strain. Before fermentation, the starch materials were pretreated employing two commercial enzymes, Termamyl (thermostable -amylase) and AMG (amyloglucosidase). Using 2 l/g of Termamyl and 4 l/g of AMG, effective conversion of both cassava and sago starch into glucose was found with substrate concentration up to 30%(w/v) dry substances. Fermentation study performed using these starch hydrolysates as substrates resulted in ethanol yield at an average of 0.48g/g by Z. Mobilis ZM4.  相似文献

Abstract

Filamentous fungi from the genus Aspergillus are of high importance for the production of organic acids. Itaconic acid (IA) is considered as an important component for the production of synthetic fibers, resin, plastics, rubber, paints, coatings, adhesives, thickeners and binders. Aspergillus niveus MG183809 was isolated from the soil sample (wastewater unit) which was collected from Avadi, Chennai, India. In the present study, itaconic acid was successfully produced by isolated A. niveus by submerged batch fermentation. In the fermentation process, various low-cost substrates like corn starch, wheat flour and sweet potato were used for itaconic acid production. Further, the factor influencing parameters such as substrate concentration and incubation period were optimized. Maximum yield of itaconic acid (15.65?±?1.75?g/L) was achieved by using A. niveus from corn starch at a concentration of 120?g/L after 168?hr (pH 3.0). And also extraction of itaconic acid from the fermentation was performed with 91.96?±?1.57 degree of extraction.  相似文献

A fungal strain (S33-2), able to grow on cooked starch and produce a substantially high level of kojic acid, was isolated from morning glory flower ( Bixa orellana ). The fungus was characterized and identified as Aspergillus flavus. The effect of different types of starch (sago, potato and corn starch) on growth of strain S33-2 and kojic acid production was examined using shake flasks. It was found that strain S33-2 grew well on all types of starch investigated. However, kojic acid production was highest when corn starch was used, with the maximum kojic acid obtained being comparable to fermentation using glucose. The highest kojic acid production (19·2 g l−1) was obtained when 75 g l−1 corn starch was used. This gave a yield, based on starch consumed, and an overall productivity of 0·256 g g−1 and 0·04 g l−1 h−1, respectively.  相似文献

Starch is one of the most abundant resources on earth and is suited to serve as a cost-effective feedstock for biological hydrogen production. However, producing hydrogen from direct fermentation of starch is usually inefficient, as the starch hydrolysis is often the rate-limiting step. Therefore, in the present work, enzymatic starch hydrolysis was conducted to enhance the feasibility of using starch feedstock for H2 production. The amylase (with a molecular weight of ca. 112 kDa) used for starch hydrolysis was produced from a recombinant E. coli harboring an amylase gene originating from Caldimonas taiwanensis On1. Using statistical experimental design, the optimal pH and temperature for starch hydrolysis with the recombinant amylase was pH 6.86 and 52.4 degrees C, respectively, at an initial starch concentration of 7 g/L. The hydrolyzed products contained mainly glucose, maltotriose, and maltotetrose, while a tiny amount of maltose was also detected. The enzymatically hydrolyzed products of soluble starch and cassava starch were used as the substrate for dark hydrogen fermentation using Clostridium butyricum CGS2 and Clostridium pasteurianum CH4. The highest H2 production rate (vH2) and yield (YH2) of C. butyricum CGS2 was 124.0 mL/h/L and 6.32 mmol H2/g COD, respectively, both obtained with the hydrolysate of cassava starch. The best H2 production rate (63.0 mL/h/L) of C. pasteurianum CH4 occurred when using hydrolyzed cassava starch as the substrate, whereas the highest yield (9.95 mmol H2/g COD) was obtained with the hydrolyzed soluble starch.  相似文献

Besides lactic acid, many lactic acid bacteria also produce proteinaceous metabolites (bacteriocins) such as nisin. As catabolite repression and end-product inhibition limit production of both products, we have investigated the use of alternative methods of supplying substrate and neutralizing or extracting lactic acid to increase yields. Fed-batch fermentation trials using a stillage-based medium with pH control by NH4OH resulted in improved lactic acid (83.4 g/l, 3.18 g/l/h, 95% yield) and nisin (1,260 IU/ml, 84,000 IU/l/h, 14,900 IU/g) production. Removing particulate matter from the stillage-based medium increased nisin production (1,590 IU/ml, 33,700 IU/g), but decreased lactic acid production (58.5 g/l, 1.40 g/l/h, 96% yield). Removing lactic acid by ion exchange resins stimulated higher lactic acid concentrations (60 to 65 g/l) and productivities (2.0 to 2.6 g/l/h) in the filtered stillage medium at the expense of nisin production (1,500 IU/ml, 25,800 IU/g).  相似文献

Rhizopus arrhizus, strain DAR 36017, produced L(+)-lactic acid in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process using starch waste effluents. Lactic acid at 19.5-44.3 g l(-1) with a yield of 0.85-0.96 g g(-1) was produced in 40 h using 20-60 g starch l(-1). Supplementation of nitrogen source may be unnecessary if potato or corn starch waste effluent was used as a production medium.  相似文献

Medium composition and culture conditions for the bleaching stable alkaline protease production by Aspergillus clavatus ES1 were optimized. Two statistical methods were used. Plackett-Burman design was applied to find the key ingredients and conditions for the best yield. Response surface methodology (RSM) including full factorial design was used to determine the optimal concentrations and conditions. Results indicated that Mirabilis jalapa tubers powder (MJTP), culture temperature, and initial medium pH had significant effects on the production. Under the proposed optimized conditions, the protease experimental yield (770.66 U/ml) closely matched the yield predicted by the statistical model (749.94 U/ml) with R (2)=0.98. The optimum operating conditions obtained from the RSM were MJTP concentration of 10 g/l, pH 8.0, and temperature of 30 degrees C, Sardinella heads and viscera flour (SHVF) and other salts were used at low level. The medium optimization contributed an about 14.0-fold higher yield than that of the unoptimized medium (starch 5 g/l, yeast extract 2 g/l, temperature 30 degrees C, and pH 6.0; 56 U/ml). More interestingly, the optimization was carried out with the by-product sources, which may result in cost-effective production of alkaline protease by the strain.  相似文献
