Abstract: | 2,5-Dimethylpyrazine (2,5-DMP) and tetramethylpyrazine (TTMP) were produced using Bacillus subtilis IFO 3013 grown on soybeans. Solid-state cultivations were carried out either in 100-ml bottles or in a fixed-bed column reactor, both systems being at 27 °C. Optimization studies showed that the best way to produce the two above aroma compounds involved two separate processes. 2,5-DMP was obtained using soybeans enriched with 75 g threonine/kg initial dry weight (i.d.w.), giving 0.85 g metabolite/kg i.d.w. after 6 days. TTMP production involved addition of 90 g/kg i.d.w. acetoin to soybeans, and 2.5 g/kg i.d.w. was recovered after 14 days. These results demonstrated the suitability of solid-state cultivation for production of high-added-value compounds.
