Locally available raw materials were used as fermentation media for the preparation of an effective bacterial insecticide of Bacillus sphaericus in Ghana. The choice of materials for media production was based on their availability, their cost and how well they supported growth and sporulation of the bacterium. The materials used were anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus), spent grain from breweries, bambara beans (Vigna subterranea), sprout maize (Zea mays) and B. sphaericus strain IAB 881. The larvicidal activities of each final whole culture of the insecticides prepared were evaluated against third and fourth instar larvae of the mosquito species Culex quinquefasciatus. The levels of larvicidal activity exhibited by preparations using the raw materials were similar to those where the bacterium was cultured in a synthetic medium, with median lethal concentrations ranging from 0.30 10- 5 to 0.68 10-6. Cell counts were in the range 11 108 - 36 108 colony-forming units ml-1, and spore counts were between 29 107 and 61 107 ml-1. 相似文献

Time-dependent light-scattering studies have been made on mixtures of αs1 -casein and Ca2+ at fixed temperature over a range of [Ca2+] and [αs1 -casein], and also as functions of temperature- Measurements were also made of the extent of precipitate formation in the casein/Ca2+ mixtures, using centrifugation. The results are analysed in terms of a monomeroctamer equilibrium between calcium caseinate particles followed by a Smoluchowski aggregation in which only the octamers can participate. The equilibrium constant is dependent upon the charge on the protein/Ca2+ particles, and hence can be related to the extent of binding of Ca2+ to the αs1 -casein. The Smoluchowski constant is likewise shown to be charge-dependent. The variation of the reaction rate with temperature can be ascribed solely to the changing charge of the αs1 -casein/Ca2+ complex caused by changed binding of Ca2+ at different temperatures. 相似文献

In this study, secondary brewery wastewater (SBWW) supplemented with sugarcane molasses (SCM) was used for SBWW treatment with concomitant lipid and carotenoid production by the yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides NCYC 921. In order to improve the biomass production, ammonium sulfate, yeast extract and urea were tested as nitrogen sources. Urea was chosen as the best low-cost nitrogen source. A fed-batch cultivation was carried out with SBWW supplemented with 10 g L−1 of sugarcane molasses as carbon source, and 2 g L−1 of urea as nitrogen source. A maximum biomass concentration of 42.5 g L−1 was obtained at t = 126.5 h and the maximum biomass productivity was 0.55 g L−1 h−1 at t = 48.25 h. The maximum lipid content was 29.9 % w/w (DCW) at t = 94 h of cultivation and the maximum carotenoid content was 0.23 mg g−1 at 120 h of cultivation. Relatively to the SBWW treatment, after the batch phase, 45.8 % of total Kjeldahl nitrogen removal, 81.7 % of COD removal and 100 % of sugar consumption were observed. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that 27.27 % of the cells had injured membrane after the inoculation. This proportion was reduced to 10.37 % at the end of the cultivation, indicating that cells adapted to the growth conditions. 相似文献

We have used liquid waste obtained from a beer brewery process to produce ethanol. To increase the productivity, genetically
modified organism, Escherichia
coli KO11, was used for ethanol fermentation. Yeast was also used to produce ethanol from the same feed stock, and the ethanol
production rates and resulting concentrations of sugars and ethanol were compared with those of KO11. In the experiments,
first the raw wastewater was directly fermented using two strains with no saccharification enzymes added. Then, commercial
enzymes, α-amylase, pectinase, or a combination of both, were used for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation, and
the results were compared with those of the no-enzyme experiments for KO11 and yeast. Under the given conditions with or without
the enzymes, yeast produced ethanol more rapidly than E. coli KO11, but the final ethanol concentrations were almost the same. For both yeast and KO11, the enzymes were observed to enhance
the ethanol yields by 61–84% as compared to the fermentation without enzymes. The combination of the two enzymes increased
ethanol production the most for the both strains. The advantages of using KO11 were not demonstrated clearly as compared to
the yeast fermentation results. 相似文献

Summary There are few inexpensive, practical methods to increase the usable nitrogen level in a substrate to be fermented to a potable alcohol product, but the provision of adequate assimilable nitrogen to a fermentation medium is critical for rapid and full wort attenuation. One practical solution to circumvent the problem may be to increase the inoculation rate to much higher than recommended levels. In this work, an increase in the pitching rate from 1.6×107 cfu/ml to 8×107 cfu/ml was shown to alleviate fermentation problems caused by nitrogen limitation. Attenuation and ethanol production rates became independent of the initial wort-free amino nitrogen (FAN) concentration, as did yeast viability and maximal yeast cell number. However, the final total cell mass was lower if the wort was nitrogen-deficient, regardless of the pitching rate. These cells were smaller and/or lighter and contained less protein at the end of fermentation. Such yeast could cause problems in subsequent fermentations if reuse of yeast (common in brewing) was considered. 相似文献

A large number of weakly germinated hulled barley grains was found during archaeobotanical analyses from the early Celtic
settlement excavations at Eberdingen-Hochdorf in southwest Germany (ca. 600 – 400 BC). These grains seem to represent deliberate
germination, due to the purity of the find and its unusual archaeological context. The possibility of deliberate malting which
could be connected with beer brewing is discussed. Recent germination and charring experiments show that the consistently
weak traces of germination on the charred subfossil grains from Hochdorf are enough to indicate malted grains. A comparison
of the archaeobotanical remains with the written and archaeological sources shows that evidence of beer brewing from excavations
is very scarce. There is practically no clear proof of brewing, while written sources and indirect suggestions are abundant.
Neither archaeological finds nor either written or iconographic sources give exact details about the prehistoric brewing technology
of the early Celts. The archaeological finds from Hochdorf seem to be the result of deliberate malting of hulled barley for
the purpose of Celtic beer brewing. 相似文献
