High tolerance towards ethanol is a desirable property for the Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains used in the alcoholic beverage industry. To improve the ethanol tolerance of an industrial Chinese rice wine yeast, a sequential batch fermentation strategy was used to adaptively evolve a chemically mutagenized Chinese rice wine G85 strain. The high level of ethanol produced under Chinese rice wine-like fermentation conditions was used as the selective pressure. After adaptive evolution of approximately 200 generations, mutant G85X-8 was isolated and shown to have markedly increased ethanol tolerance. The evolved strain also showed higher osmotic and temperature tolerances than the parental strain. Laboratory Chinese rice wine fermentation showed that the evolved G85X-8 strain was able to catabolize sugars more completely than the parental G85 strain. A higher level of yeast cell activity was found in the fermentation mash produced by the evolved strain, but the aroma profiles were similar between the evolved and parental strains. The improved ethanol tolerance in the evolved strain might be ascribed to the altered fatty acids composition of the cell membrane and higher intracellular trehalose concentrations. These results suggest that adaptive evolution is an efficient approach for the non-recombinant modification of industrial yeast strains. 相似文献

Ethanol fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells was performed in medium with different glucose concentrations. As the glucose content augmented from 200 to 250 g/L, the growth of the immobilized cells did not change while that of the free cells was reduced. At higher glucose concentration (300, 350, and 400 g/L), the cell proliferation significantly decreased and the residual sugar level sharply augmented for both the immobilized and free yeast. The specific growth rate of the immobilized cells was 27–65 % higher than that of the free cells, and the final ethanol concentration in the immobilized yeast cultures was 9.7–18.5 % higher than that in the free yeast cultures. However, the immobilized yeast demonstrated similar or slightly lower ethanol yield in comparison with the free yeast. High fermentation rate of the immobilized yeast was associated with low unsaturation degree of fatty acids in cellular membrane. Adsorption of S. cerevisiae cells on water hyacinth stem pieces in the nutritional medium decreased the unsaturation degree of membrane lipid and the immobilized yeast always exhibited lower unsaturation degree of membrane lipid than the free yeast in ethanol fermentation. 相似文献

Spent sulfite pulping liquor (SSL) contains lignin, which is present as lignosulfonate, and hemicelluloses that are present
as hydrolyzed carbohydrates. To reduce the biological oxygen demand of SSL associated with dissolved sugars, we studied the
capacity of Pichia stipitis FPL-YS30 (xyl3Δ) to convert these sugars into useful products. FPL-YS30 produces a negligible amount of ethanol while converting xylose
into xylitol. This work describes the xylose fermentation kinetics of yeast strain P.stipitis FPL-YS30. Yeast was grown in rich medium supplemented with different carbon sources: glucose, xylose, or ammonia-base SSL.
The SSL and glucose-acclimatized cells showed similar maximum specific growth rates (0.146 h−1). The highest xylose consumption at the beginning of the fermentation process occurred using cells precultivated in xylose,
which showed relatively high specific activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49). However, the maximum specific
rates of xylose consumption (0.19 gxylose/gcel h) and xylitol production (0.059 gxylitol/gcel h) were obtained with cells acclimatized in glucose, in which the ratio between xylose reductase (EC 1.1.1.21) and xylitol
dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.9) was kept at higher level (0.82). In this case, xylitol production (31.6 g/l) was 19 and 8% higher
than in SSL and xylose-acclimatized cells, respectively. Maximum glycerol (6.26 g/l) and arabitol (0.206 g/l) production were
obtained using SSL and xylose-acclimatized cells, respectively. The medium composition used for the yeast precultivation directly
reflected their xylose fermentation performance. The SSL could be used as a carbon source for cell production. However, the
inoculum condition to obtain a high cell concentration in SSL needs to be optimized.

The anaerobic bacteriaClostridium ljungdahlii produces ethanol and acetate from CO, CO2, and H2 in synthesis gas. Early studies with the bacterium showed that relatively high concentrations of ethanol could be produced
by lowering the fermentation pH and eliminating yeast extract from the medium in favor of a defined medium. This article presents
the results from a medium development study based on the aerobic bacteriumEscherichia coli. The results of continuous-reactor studies in a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) with and without cell recycle are
shown to demonstrate the utility of this improved medium. 相似文献

The fermentation characteristics of Mortierella alpina were investigated in response to various nitrogen sources. Influences on nitrogen source and glucose uptake rate, mycelial
morphology of M. alpina, and pH of medium in relation to different nitrogen sources were discussed. Effects of different nitrogen sources on cell
growth, fatty acid composition, arachidonic acid (ARA), and total lipid concentration were also evaluated. It revealed that
the maximum nitrogen source uptake ratio was obtained when corn steep liquor was used as nitrogen source. When yeast extract
was used as the sole nitrogen source, glucose was completely exhausted at the end of fermentation. The maximum dry cell weight
obtained from medium with yeast extract as nitrogen source had the highest total lipid concentration. Sodium nitrate was the
favorable nitrogen source for ARA accumulation, and the highest ARA percentage in total fatty acids was obtained, 35.9%. Urea
was identified as the favorable nitrogen source for ARA production, the highest ARA concentration obtained from urea was 5.8 g/l.
Compared with inorganic nitrogen sources, organic nitrogen compounds are favorable for both cell growth and total lipids accumulation. 相似文献

Four kinds of worts with different nitrogen compositions were used to examine their effects on fermentation performance of brewer's yeast. The absorption pattern of peptides with different molecular weights (Mw) in yeast cells during wort fermentation was also investigated. Results showed that both the nitrogen composition and level had significant impacts on the yeast biomass accumulation, ethanol production, and free amino nitrogen and sugars consumption rates. Worts supplemented with wheat gluten hydrolysates increased 11.5% of the biomass, 5.9% of fermentability, and 0.6% of ethanol content and decreased 25.6% of residual sugar content during wort fermentation. Moreover, yeast cells assimilated peptides with various Mw differently during fermentation. Peptides with Mw below 1 kDa decreased quickly, and the rate of assimilation was more than 50% at the end of fermentation, while those with Mw above 10 kDa almost could not be assimilated by yeast. All these results further indicated that the level and composition of wort nitrogen had significant impacts on the growth and fermentation performances of brewer's yeast, and peptides with Mw below 1 kDa were one of preferred nitrogen sources for brewer's yeast. 相似文献

The fermentation of xylitol is a promising alternative to conventional chemical processes. Micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to monitor the process involving Candida tropicalis, including the medium and yeast cells during xylitol fermentation. The spectra of the fermentation medium showed that the characteristic xylitol peak at 866 cm?1 was enhanced from 18 h and that the characteristic xylose peak at 901 cm?1 gradually diminished as the reaction progressed. The characteristic ethanol peak at 880 cm?1 indicated the production of by-products. Intracellular biological macromolecules, such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, were identified in the spectra of yeast cells. The intensity of nucleic acids at 783 cm?1 reached the highest value after 3 h. The xylose band at 901 cm?1 and the peaks in the carbohydrate region reached a maximum in the logarithmic phase, indicating the carbohydrate metabolism was the most active. The amide I band located at 1658 cm?1 indicated the major secondary structure of proteins was α-helix; its intensity gradually reduced during the fermentation. The 853 cm?1 band due to buried tyrosine was predominant at 21 h. In addition, the 1275 cm?1 band corresponded to the presence of a random coil only at 27 h. These results provided a perspective to understand fermentation and verified the applicability of Raman spectroscopy in xylitol fermentation. 相似文献

Ethanol productions from cheese whey powder (CWP) solution were investigated by using free or immobilized cells of Kluyveromyces marxianus in monocultures or mixed cultures with free or immobilized cells of K. marxianus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. K. marxianus free cells produced 3.8% v/v ethanol in monocultures, while S. cerevisiae immobilized cells produced 5.3% v/v ethanol in mixed cultures. The percentage of theoretical yield was found to be higher in mixed cultures than that in monocultures.
The maximum ethanol fermentation efficiency was achieved (79.9% of the theoretical value) using mixed cultures of immobilized
cells of K. marxianus and S. cerevisiae. The beads were relatively stable without significant reduction in activity for about eight batches of fermentation. 相似文献

Ethanol fermentation was carried out with Kluyveromyces marxianus cells at various temperatures (30, 35, 40, and 45 °C). Fermentation performance of the immobilized yeast on banana leaf sheath pieces and the free yeast were evaluated and compared. Generally, ethanol production of the immobilized and free yeast was stable in a temperature range of 30–40 °C. Temperature of 45 °C restricted yeast growth and lengthened the fermentation. The immobilized yeast demonstrated faster sugar assimilation and higher ethanol level in the fermentation broth in comparison with the free yeast at all fermentation temperatures. Change in fatty acid level in cellular membrane was determined to clarify the response of the free and immobilized yeast to thermal stress. The free cells of K. marxianus responded to temperature increase by increasing saturated fatty acid (C16:0 and C18:0) level and by decreasing unsaturated fatty acid (C18:1 and C18:2) level in cellular membrane. For fermentation at 40 °C with immobilized cells of K. marxianus, however, the changes were not observed in both saturated fatty acid (C16:0) and unsaturated fatty acid (C18:1 and C18:2) level. 相似文献

Surface-engineered yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae codisplaying Rhizopus oryzae glucoamylase and Streptococcus bovis α-amylase on the cell surface was used for direct production of ethanol from uncooked raw starch. By using 50 g/L cells during
batch fermentation, ethanol concentration could reach 53 g/L in 7 days. During repeated batch fermentation, the production
of ethanol could be maintained for seven consecutive cycles. For cells immobilized in loofa sponge, the concentration of ethanol
could reach 42 g/L in 3 days in a circulating packed-bed bioreactor. However, the production of ethanol stopped thereafter
because of limited contact between cells and starch. The bioreactor could be operated for repeated batch production of ethanol,
but ethanol concentration dropped to 55% of its initial value after five cycles because of a decrease in cell mass and cell
viability in the bioreactor. Adding cells to the bioreactor could partially restore ethanol production to 75% of its initial
value. 相似文献

Continuous Production of Ethanol from Starch Using Glucoamylase and Yeast Co-Immobilized in Pectin Gel 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This work presents a continuous simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process to produce ethanol from starch
using glucoamylase and Saccharomyces cerevisiae co-immobilized in pectin gel. The enzyme was immobilized on macroporous silica, after silanization and activation of the
support with glutaraldehyde. The silica–enzyme derivative was co-immobilized with yeast in pectin gel. This biocatalyst was
used to produce ethanol from liquefied manioc root flour syrup, in three fixed bed reactors. The initial reactor yeast load
was 0.05 g wet yeast/ml of reactor (0.1 g wet yeast/g gel), used in all SSF experiments. The enzyme concentration in the reactor
was defined by running SSF batch assays, using different amount of silica–enzyme derivative, co-immobilized with yeast in
pectin gel. The chosen reactor enzyme concentration, 3.77 U/ml, allowed fermentation to be the rate-limiting step in the batch
experiment. In this condition, using initial substrate concentration of 166.0 g/l of total reducing sugars (TRS), 1 ml gel/1 ml
of medium, ethanol productivity of 8.3 g/l/h was achieved, for total conversion of starch to ethanol and 91% of the theoretical
yield. In the continuous runs, feeding 163.0 g/l of TRS and using the same enzyme and yeast concentrations used in the batch
run, ethanol productivity was 5.9 g ethanol/l/h, with 97% of substrate conversion and 81% of the ethanol theoretical yield.
Diffusion effects in the extra-biocatalyst film seemed to be reduced when operating at superficial velocities above 3.7 × 10−4 cm/s. 相似文献

Although most fermentation ethanol is currently produced in traditional batch processes with yeast, the ethanologenic bacteriumZymomonas mobilis is recognized as an alternative process organism for fuel alcohol production. Different strategies for improving the productivity
of ethanol fermentations are reviewed. In batch and open-type continuous fermentations the advantage of replacing yeast byZymomonas relates principally to the 10% higher fermentation efficiency (product yield), whereas in high cell density, closed-type
continuous systems (operating with cell recycle or retention) the superior kinetic properties ofZymomonas can be exploited to affect about a five-fold improvement in volumetric productivity. Unlike yeast, the rate of energy supply
(conversion of glucose to ethanol) inZymomonas is not strictly regulated by the energy demand and a nongrowing culture exhibits a maintenance energy coefficient that is
at least 25 times higher than yeast. As an alternative to process improvement through genetic engineering of the process organism
this investigation has taken a biochemical and physiological approach to increasing the kinetic performance ofZ. mobilis through manipulation and control of the chemical environment. Energetically “uncoupled” phenotypes with markedly increased
specific rates of ethanol production were generated under conditions of nutritional limitation (nitrogen, phosphate, or potassium)
in steady-state continuous culture. The pH was shown to influence energy coupling inZymomonas affecting the maintenance coefficient (m
e
) rather than the max growth yield coefficient (Y
x
sάx
). Whereas the pH for optimal growth ofZ. mobilis (ATCC 29191) in a complex medium was 6.0–6.5, the specific rate of ethanol production in continuous fermentations was maximal
in the range 4.0–4.5. Fermentation conditions are specified for maximizing the specific productivity of aZymomonas-based continuous ethanol fermentation where the potential exists for improving the volumetric productivity in dense culture
fermentations with an associated 35–40% reduction in capital costs of fermentation equipment and an estimated savings of 10–15%
on cost of product recovery (distillation), and 3–7% on overall production costs based on the projected use of inexpensive
feedstocks. 相似文献

A commercial strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used for the production of ethanol by fermentation of cashew apple juice. Growth kinetics and ethanol productivity were
calculated for batch fermentation with different initial sugar (glucose + fructose) concentrations. Maximal ethanol, cell,
and glycerol concentrations were obtained when 103.1 g L−1 of initial sugar concentration was used. Cell yield (Y
X/S) was calculated as 0.24 (g microorganism)/(g glucose + fructose) using cashew apple juice medium with 41.3 g L−1 of initial sugar concentration. Glucose was exhausted first, followed by fructose. Furthermore, the initial concentration
of sugars did not influence ethanol selectivity. These results indicate that cashew apple juice is a suitable substrate for
yeast growth and ethanol production. 相似文献

There is an increasing interest for the organic residues from various sectors of agriculture and industries over the past
few decades. Their application in the field of fermentation technology has resulted in the production of bulk chemicals and
value-added products such as amino acid, enzymes, mushroom, organic acids, single-cell protein, biologically active secondary
metabolites, etc. (Ramachandran et al., Bioresource Technology 98:2000–2009, 2007). In this work, the production of extracellular xylanase by the fungus Penicillium canescens was investigated in solid-state fermentation using five agro-industrial substrates (soya oil cake, soya meal, wheat bran,
whole wheat bran, and pulp beet). The best substrate was the soya oil cake. In order to optimize the production, the most
effective cultivation conditions were investigated in Erlenmeyer flasks and in plastic bags with 5 and 100 g of soya oil cake,
respectively. The initial moisture content, initial pH, and temperature of the culture affected the xylanase synthesis. The
optimal fermentation medium was composed by soya oil cake crushed to 5 mm supplemented with 3% and 4% (w/w) of casein peptone and Na2HPO4.2H2O. After 7 days of incubation at 30 °C and under 80% of initial moisture, a xylanase production level of 18,895 ± 778 U/g
(Erlenmeyer flasks) and 9,300 ± 589 U/g (plastic bags) was reached. The partially purified enzyme recovered by ammonium sulfate
fractionation was completely stable at freezing and refrigeration temperatures up to 6 months and reasonably stable at room
temperature for more than 3 months. 相似文献

Yeast single-cell protein and yeast extract, in particular, are two products which have many feed, food, pharmaceutical, and
biotechnological applications. However, many of these applications are limited by their market price. Specifically, the yeast
extract requirements for culture media are one of the major technical hurdles to be overcome for the development of low-cost
fermentation routes for several top value chemicals in a biorefinery framework. A potential biotechnical solution is the production
of yeast biomass from the hemicellulosic fraction stream. The growth of three pentose-assimilating yeast cell factories, Debaryomyces hansenii, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Pichia stipitis was compared using non-detoxified brewery’s spent grains hemicellulosic hydrolyzate supplemented with mineral nutrients.
The yeasts exhibited different specific growth rates, biomass productivities, and yields being D. hansenii as the yeast species that presented the best performance, assimilating all sugars and noteworthy consuming most of the hydrolyzate
inhibitors. Under optimized conditions, D. hansenii displayed a maximum specific growth rate, biomass yield, and productivity of 0.34 h−1, 0.61 g g−1, and 0.56 g l−1 h−1, respectively. The nutritional profile of D. hansenii was thoroughly evaluated, and it compares favorably to others reported in literature. It contains considerable amounts of
some essential amino acids and a high ratio of unsaturated over saturated fatty acids. 相似文献

Effects of organic and inorganic additives on flotation recovery of washed cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae resuspended in water 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Separation of microbial cells by flotation recovery is usually carried out in industrial reactors or wastewater treatment systems, which contain a complex mixture of microbial nutrients and excretion products. In the present study, the separation of yeast cells by flotation recovery was carried out using a simple flotation recovery systems containing washed yeast cells resuspended in water in order to elucidate the effects of additives (defined amounts of organic and inorganic acids, ethanol, surfactants and sodium chloride) on the cellular interactions at interfaces (cell/aqueous phase and cell/air bubble). When sodium chloride, organic acids (notably propionic, succinic and acetic acids) and organic surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and Nonidet P40) were added to the flotation recovery system, significant increases in the cell recovery of yeast hydrophobic cells (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, strain FLT-01) were observed. The association of ethanol to acetic acid solution (a minor by-product of alcoholic fermentation) in the flotation recovery system, containing washed cells of strain FLT-01 resuspended in water, leading to an increased flotation recovery at pH 5.5. Thus, the association among products of the cellular metabolism (e.g., ethanol and acetic acid) can improve yeast cell recovery by flotation recovery. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae, industrial yeast isolate, has been of great interest in recent years for fuel ethanol production. The ethanol yield and productivity depend on many inhibitory factors during the fermentation process such as temperature, ethanol, compounds released as the result of pretreatment procedures, and osmotic stress. An ideal strain should be able to grow under different stress conditions occurred at different fermentation steps. Development of tolerant yeast strains can be achieved by reprogramming pathways supporting the ethanol metabolism by regulating the energy balance and detoxicification processes. Complex gene interactions should be solved for an in-depth comprehension of the yeast stress tolerance mechanism. Genetic engineering as a powerful biotechnological tool is required to design new strategies for increasing the ethanol fermentation performance. Upregulation of stress tolerance genes by recombinant DNA technology can be a useful approach to overcome inhibitory situations. This review presents the application of several genetic engineering strategies to increase ethanol yield under different stress conditions including inhibitor tolerance, ethanol tolerance, thermotolerance, and osmotolerance. 相似文献

Fermentation properties under the control of multiple genes of industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain are difficult to alter with traditional methods. Here, we describe efficient and reliable genome shuffling to increase
ethanol production through the rapid improvement of stress resistance. The strategy is carried out using yeast sexual and
asexual reproduction by itself instead of polyethylene glycol-mediated protoplast fusion. After three rounds of genome shuffling,
the best performing strain S3-10 was obtained on the special plate containing a high ethanol concentration. It exhibits substantial
improvement in multiple stress tolerance to ethanol, glucose, and heat. The cycle of fermentation of S3-10 was not only shortened,
but also, ethanol yield was increased by up to 10.96% compared with the control in very-high-gravity (VHG) fermentations.
In total, S3-10 possesses optimized fermentation characteristics, which will be propitious to the development of bioethanol
fermentation industry. 相似文献

The influence of potassium on ethanol production bySaccharomyces cerevisiae wild type and AR5 cells carrying the plasmid pCYG4 was investigated. This plasmid carries the glutamate dehydrogenase gene
conferring an 11-fold higher level of expressed enzyme activity over the wild type cells. All experiments were carried out
in batch culture with medium supplemented to different potassium concentrations up to 180 mM. Maximum ethanol production rate
was observed in the AR5 cells grown in medium supplemented with 3.5 mM of potassium ions. Glucose uptake rate increased with
increasing potassium up to 60 mM, but higher concentrations depressed glucose uptake rate in both strains. Furthermore, the
wild type cells showed higher growth rate, ethanol production, and glucose consumption rate than the AR5 cells. These lower
rates in the AR5 cells could be explained by repression of potassium uptake by an enhancement of ammonium feeding, and greater
energy requirements by these cells due the presence of the plasmid. 相似文献

Optimization of ethanol production through addition of substratum and protein-lipid additives was studied. Oilseed meal extract
was used as protein lipid supplement, while rice husk was used as substratum. The effect of oil seed meal extract and rice
husk was observed at varying concentration of medium sugar from 8% to 20%. Of the three oil seed meal extracts used, viz.
groundnut, safflower, and sunflower, safflower was found to be most efficient. The use of oilseed meal extract at 4% was found
to enhance ethanol production by almost 50% and enhanced sugar tolerance from 8% to 16%. A further increase of almost 48%
ethanol was observed on addition of 2 g of rice husk per 100 ml of medium. An increase in cell mass with better sugar attenuation
was observed. Further optimization was sought through use of sugarcane juice as the sugar source. While 8.9% ethanol yield
with 75% sugar attenuation was observed at 20% sucrose concentration, it was found to increase to 12% (v/v) with almost complete utilization of medium sugar when sugarcane juice was used. Cell weight was also observed to increase
by 26%. 相似文献
