温度对谷胱甘肽分批发酵的影响及动力学模型

研究了24～32℃范围内产朊假丝酵母生产谷胱甘肽的分批发酵过程，发现较高温度对细胞生长有促进作用，而较低温度则更有利于谷胱甘肽产量的提高。应用改进的Logistic和LuedekingPiret方程分别对细胞生长动力学和谷胱甘肽合成动力学进行了模拟，得到不同温度下各种动力学参数。在此基础上，进一步研究了温度同细胞生长动力学参数之间的内在联系，得到谷胱甘肽分批发酵过程中细胞浓度的变化同温度以及底物浓度之间的一般关系式：dX-dt＝［0.0224(T+1.7)］2X(1-X/X_max)1+S｛8.26×10.6×exp［-31477/R/(T+273)］｝。验证实验结果表明，该模型具有很好的适用性。

Kinetic Models for the Effect of Temperature on Batch Glutathione Fermentation by Candida utilis

Glutathione (L-gamma-glutamyl-L-cysteinylglycine), one of the major non-protein thiol compounds, is widely distributed in living cells and plays an important role in maintaining the normal redox environment of cells as an antioxidant. In the production of glutathione by fermentation, temperature is one of the most important environmental factors that affect the yield and the productivity of glutathione. Here the effect of temperature, varied from 24 degrees C to 32 degrees C, on the batch fermentation of glutathione in a 7 L stirred fermenter by Candida utilis WSH 02-08 was investigated. It was found that cell growth was hastened along with the increase of temperature. The maximum dry cell weight was achieved approximately 16 g/L under various temperatures, as soon as the glucose was exhausted. The effect of temperature on glutathione production was different from that on cell growth: the lower the temperature, the higher the glutathione production, i.e. the maximum glutathione concentration at 32 degrees C (235 mg/L) was only 75% and 64% of that at 30 degrees C and 26 degrees C, respectively. The maximum average specific growth rate (0.13 h(-1)) was achieved at 30 degrees C while the maximum glutathione concentration (366 mg x L(-1)) and the maximum intracellular glutathione content (2.3%) were obtained at 26 degrees C. Therefore, the optimum temperatures for cell growth and glutathione production are quite different in the batch fermentation. A modified Logistic equation was successfully applied to estimate the kinetics of cell growth. The maximum specific growth rate and the substrate inhibition constant, calculated from this equation, were both increased along with the temperature. In addition, the glutathione fermentation by C. utilis WSH 02-08 under various temperatures was proven to be a partial growth-associated process by estimating the process with the Luedeking-Piret equation. Based on the estimated parameon the estimated parameters, the effect of temperature on the kinetics of cell growth was further studied. An equation, dX / dt = [0.0224(T + 1.7)]2 X(1-X/Xmax) / 1 + S/ {8.26 x 10(6) x exp [-31477/R/(T+273)]}, was developed and applied to interlink the relationship between biomass concentration and temperature as well as substrate concentration in the batch glutathione fermentation. The experiment results showed that this model could predict the growth pattern very well.
