New developments in solid state fermentation: I-bioprocesses and products

The last decade has witnessed an unprecedented increase in interest in solid state fermentation (SSF) for the development of bioprocesses, such as bioremediation and biodegradation of hazardous compounds, biological detoxification of agro-industrial residues, biotransformation of crops and crop-residues for nutritional enrichment, biopulping, and production of value-added products, such as biologically active secondary metabolites, including antibiotics, alkaloids, plant growth factors, etc. enzymes, organic acids, biopesticides, including mycopesticides and bioherbicides, biosurfactants, biofuel, aroma compounds, etc. SSF systems, which during the previous two decades were termed as a ‘low-technology’ systems, appear to be a promising one for the production of value-added ‘low volume-high cost’ products such as biopharmaceuticals. SSF processes offer potential advantages in bioremediation and biological detoxification of hazardous and toxic compounds. With the advent of biotechnological innovations, mainly in the area of enzyme and fermentation technology, many new avenues have opened for the application of SSF. This review discusses more recent developments in the area of SSF leading to the developments of bioprocesses and products.     

Synthesis,anticancer activity,and SAR analyses of compounds containing the 5:7-fused 4,6,8-triaminoimidazo[4,5-e][1,3]diazepine ring system

Described herein are our limited structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies on a 5:7-fused heterocycle (1), containing the 4,6,8-triaminoimidazo[4,5-e][1,3]diazepine ring system, whose synthesis and potent broad-spectrum anticancer activity we reported a few years ago. Our SAR efforts in this study are mainly focused on judicial attachment of substituents at N-1 and N⁶-positions of the heterocyclic ring. Our results suggest that there is some subtle correlation between the substituents attached at the N-1 position and those attached at the N⁶-position of the heterocycle. It is likely that there is a common hydrophobic binding pocket on the target protein that is occupied by the substituents attached at the N-1 and N⁶-positions of the heterocyclic ligand. This pocket appears to be large enough to hold either a C-18 alkyl chain of N⁶ and no attachment at N-1, or a combined C-10 at N⁶ and a CH₂Ph at N-1. Any alkyl chain shorter or longer than C-10 at N⁶ with a CH₂Ph attached at N-1, would result in decrease of biological activity.     

Physiological adaptations to phosphorus deficiency during proteoid root development in white lupin

Release of large amounts of citric acid from specialized root clusters (proteoid roots) of phosphorus (P)-deficient white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) is an efficient strategy for chemical mobilization of sparingly available P sources in the rhizosphere. The present study demonstrates that increased accumulation and exudation of citric acid and a concomitant release of protons were predominantly restricted to mature root clusters in the later stages of P deficiency. Inhibition of citrate exudation by exogenous application of anion-channel blockers such as ethacrynic- and anthracene-9-carboxylic acids may indicate involvement of an anion channel. Phosphorus-deficiency-induced accumulation and subsequent exudation of citric acid seem to be a consequence of both increased biosynthesis and reduced metabolization of citric acid in the proteoid root tissue, indicated by increased in-vitro activity and enzyme protein levels of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.31), and reduced activity of aconitase (EC 4.2.1.3) and root respiration. Similar to citric acid, acid phosphatase, which is secreted by roots and involved in the mobilization of the organic soil P fraction, was released predominantly from proteoid roots of P-deficient plants. Also ³³Pi uptake per unit root fresh-weight was increased by approximately 50% in juvenile and mature proteoid root clusters compared to apical segments of non-proteoid roots. Kinetic studies revealed a K _m of 30.7 μM for Pi uptake of non-proteoid root apices in P-sufficient plants, versus K _m values of 8.5–8.6 μM for non-proteoid and juvenile proteoid roots under P-deficient conditions, suggesting the induction of a high-affinity Pi-uptake system. Obviously, P-deficiency-induced adaptations of white lupin, involved in P acquisition and mobilization of sparingly available P sources, are predominantly confined to proteoid roots, and moreover to distinct stages during proteoid root development.

Mapping QTLs controlling fruit quality in peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch)

 The organoleptic quality of fleshy fruits is in a large part defined by their composition of soluble sugars and organic acids. An F₂ population issuing from a cross between two peach varieties, ‘Ferjalou Jalousia’, a non-acid peach, and ‘Fantasia’, an acid nectarine, was analysed over 2 successive years for agronomic characters and for molecular-marker (isoenzymes, RFLPs, RAPDs, IMAs and AFLPs) segregations. Blooming and maturity dates, as well as productivity, were noted for each tree. Four fruits per tree were analysed at maturity for fresh weight, colour, pH, titratable acidity, soluble-solids content (SSC), acid (malic, citric and quinic acids) and sugar (sucrose, glucose, fructose, sorbitol) contents. QTLs were detected for all fruit components analysed, except for fruit colour. The QTLs for nearly all components were present on two linkage groups. For productivity, fresh weight, pH, quinic acid, sucrose and sorbitol content, all the detected QTLs displayed the same effect as the parental phenotypes. By contrast, for maturity date, titratable acidity, malic and citric acids and fructose, some QTLs displayed the same effect as the parental phenotypes while others displayed the opposite effect. The fraction of the total variation in each trait throughout the population explained by the QTLs was very high and reached more than 90% for some characters. For most of the characters analysed, epistasis was observed between QTLs. Received: 10 October 1997 / Accepted: 18 August 1998     

DNA hybridization detection with organic thin film transistors: toward fast and disposable DNA microarray chips

We demonstrate a novel DNA hybridization detection method with organic thin film transistors. DNA molecules are immobilized directly on the surface of organic semiconductors, producing an unambiguous doping-induced threshold voltage shift upon hybridization. With these shifts, single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) are differentiated successfully. This method is expected to result in higher sensitivity than the main competitive technology, ISFET-based sensors because of the direct exposure of DNA molecules to sensitive layers. Factors that influence sensor sensitivity have been analyzed and optimum conditions have been determined using statistically designed experiments. Under the optimum conditions, the maximum difference between saturation current ratios caused by ssDNA and dsDNA reaches as high as 70%. In order to make DNA detection fast, we also demonstrate rapid on-chip electrically enhanced hybridization using the TFTs. These technologies together will enable the realization of disposable, rapid-turnaround tools for field-deployable genomic diagnosis.     

Differences in rhizome aeration of Phragmites australis in a constructed wetland

Waterlogged soils are a challenging environment for plants due to anoxic conditions and enrichment of phytotoxic substances in the rhizosphere. High contents of organic matter in the substrate as present in constructed wetlands (CW) may amplify these effects. The influence of substrate organic matter on the rhizome aeration of Phragmites australis (common reed) was investigated in a CW for sewage treatment on two sites with different organic concentrations: (a) inflow part of the bed with a high organic charge (high-organic site) and (b) outflow zone of the bed with a lower organic charge (low-organic site). Several diurnal oxygen (O₂) courses were recorded inside the rhizomes using micro-optodes. Maximum O₂ percentages in the rhizomes were generally the same at both sites, but minimum O₂ values were lower in the low-organic site than in the high-organic site, leading to higher amplitudes at the low-organic site. The results suggest that oxygen release from the roots is hampered under high-organic compared to low-organic conditions. This observation might be explained by changes in gas conductivity of the roots, but also by alterations in microbial oxygen demand, under different organic burden.

Impaired renal organic anion transport 1 (SLC22A6) and its regulation following acute myocardial infarction and reperfusion injury in rats

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a high frequent and common complication following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). This study examined and identified the effect of AMI-induced AKI on organic anion transporter 1 (Oat1) and Oat3 transport using clinical setting of pre-renal AKI in vivo. Cardiac ischaemia (CI) and cardiac ischaemia and reperfusion (CIR) were induced in rats by 30-min left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion and 30-min occlusion followed by 120-min reperfusion, respectively. Renal hemodynamic parameters, mitochondrial function and Oat1/Oat3 expression and function were determined along with biochemical markers. Results showed that CI markedly reduced renal blood flow and pressure by approximately 40%, while these parameters were recovered during reperfusion. CI and CIR progressively attenuated renal function and induced oxidative stress by increasing plasma BUN, creatinine and malondialdehyde levels. Correspondingly, SOD, GPx, CAT mRNAs were decreased, while TNFα, IL1β, COX2, iNOS, NOX2, NOX4, and xanthine oxidase were increased. Mitochondrial dysfunction as indicated by increasing ROS, membrane depolarisation, swelling and caspase3 activation were shown. Early significant detection of AKI; KIM1, IL18, was found. All of which deteriorated para-aminohippurate transport by down-regulating Oat1 during sudden ischaemia. This consequent blunted the trafficking rate of Oat1/Oat3 transport via down-regulating PKCζ/Akt and up-regulating PKCα/NFκB during CI and CIR. Thus, this promising study indicates that CI and CIR abruptly impaired renal Oat1 and regulatory proteins of Oat1/Oat3, which supports dysregulation of remote sensing and signalling and inter-organ/organismal communication. Oat1, therefore, could potentially worsen AKI and might be a potential therapeutic target for early reversal of such injury.     

Composting of poultry manure and wheat straw in a closed reactor: optimum mixture ratio and evolution of parameters

The main objectives of this work were to investigate the evolution of some principal physico-chemical properties (temperature, carbon dioxide, oxygen, ammonia, pH, electrical conductivity, organic matter) and microbial population (mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria and fungi) during composting poultry manure with wheat straw in a reactor system, and to evaluate the optimum mixture ratio for organic substrate production. The experiments were carried out in four small laboratory reactors (1 l) and one large reactor (32 l) under adiabatic conditions over 14 days. During the process the highest temperature was 64.6°C, pH varied between 7.40 and 8.85, electrical conductivity varied between 3.50 and 4.31 dS m⁻¹ and the highest value of organic matter (dry weight) degradation was 47.6%. Mesophilic bacteria and fungi predominated in the beginning, and started the degradation with generation of metabolic heat. By increasing the temperature in reactors, the number of thermophilic microorganisms also increased, which resulted in faster degradation of substrate. The application of a closed reactor showed a rapid degradation of manure/straw mixture as well as a good control of the emissions of air polluting gases into atmosphere. The results showed that the ratio of manure to straw 5.25:1 (dry weight) was better for composting process than the other mixture ratios.
