In the present study, compactin production by Penicillium brevicompactum WA 2315 was optimized using solid-state fermentation. The initial one factor at a time approach resulted in improved compactin production of 905 μg gds−1 compared to initial 450 μg gds−1. Subsequently, nutritional, physiological, and biological parameters were screened using fractional factorial and Box–Behnken design. The fractional factorial design studied inoculum age, inoculum volume, pH, NaCl, NH4NO3, MgSO4, and KH2PO4. All parameters were found to be significant except pH and KH2PO4. The Box–Behnken design studied inoculum volume, inoculum age, glycerol, and NH4NO3 at three different levels. Inoculum volume (p = 0.0013) and glycerol (p = 0.0001) were significant factors with greater effect on response. The interaction effects were not significant. The validation study using model-defined conditions resulted in an improved yield of 1,250 μg gds−1 compactin. Further improvement in yield was obtained using fed batch mode of carbon supplementation. The feeding of glycerol (20% v/v) on day 3 resulted in further improved compactin yield of 1,406 μg gds−1. The present study demonstrates that agro-industrial residues can be successfully used for compactin production, and statistical experiment designs provide an easy tool to improve the process conditions for secondary metabolite production.  相似文献

In this study, effect of various parameters on sophorolipid (SL) production by the yeast Candida bombicola was investigated for the enhancing of its production by employing L18 orthogonal array design of experiments. At optimum conditions of sugarcane molasses 50 g l−1, soybean oil 50 g l−1, inoculum size 5% (v/v), temperature 30 °C, inoculum age 2 days, and agitation 200 rpm, the yeast produced almost equal amounts of the product in batch shake flasks and in a 3-l fermentor without any pH control (45 and 47 g l−1, respectively). However, the yield increased to 60 g l−1 in the fermentor under controlled pH environment. Time course of SL production, yeast biomass growth, and utilization of sugarcane molasses and soybean oil at these optimized conditions were fitted to existing kinetic models reported in the literature. Estimated kinetic parameters from these models suggested that conventional medium containing glucose can very well be replaced with the present low-cost fermentative medium.  相似文献

Actinobacillus succinogenes 130 Z was used to produce succinic acid from cheese whey in this study. At the presence of external CO2 supply, the effects of initial cheese whey concentration, pH, and inoculum size on the succinic acid production were studied. The by-product formation during the fermentation process was also analyzed. The highest succinic acid yield of 0.57 was obtained at initial cheese whey concentration of 50 g/L, while the highest succinic acid productivity of 0.58 g h−1 L−1 was obtained at initial cheese whey concentration of 100 g/L. Increase in pH and inoculum size caused higher succinic acid yield and productivity. At the preferred fermentation condition of pH 6.8, inoculum size of 5% and initial cheese whey concentration of 50 g/L, succinic acid yield of 0.57, and productivity of 0.44 g h−1 L−1 were obtained. Acetic acid and formic acid were the main by-products throughout the fermentation run of 48 h. It is feasible to produce succinic acid using lactose from cheese whey as carbon resource by A. succinogenes 130 Z.  相似文献

With the objective of determining the kinetic behavior (growth, substrate, pH, and carotenoid production) and obtain the stoichiometric parameters of the fermentative process by Sporidiobolus salmonicolor in synthetic and agroindustrial media, fermentations were carried out in shaken flasks at 25°C, 180 rpm, and initial pH of 4.0 for 120 h in the dark, sampling every 6 h. The maximum concentrations of total carotenoids in synthetic (913 μg/L) and agroindustrial (502 μg/L) media were attained approximately 100 h after the start of the fermentative process. Carotenoid bioproduction is associated with cell growth and the ratio between carotenoid production and cell growth (Y P/X) is 176 and 163 μg/g in the synthetic and agroindustrial media, respectively. The pH of the agroindustrial fermentation medium varied from 4.2 to 8.5 during the fermentation. The specific growth rate (μ X) for S. salmonicolor in synthetic and agroindustrial media was 0.07 and 0.04 h−1, respectively. The synthetic medium allowed for greater productivity, obtaining maximum cell productivity (P x) of 0.08 g L−1 h−1 and maximum total carotenoid productivity (P car) of 14.2 μg L−1 h−1. Knowledge of the kinetics of a fermentative process is of extreme importance when transposing a laboratory experiment to an industrial scale, as well as making a quantitative comparison between different culture conditions.  相似文献

A batch culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae for the production of hexokinase was carried out in a 5-L fermentor containing 3 L of culture medium, which was in oculated with cell suspension (about 0.7 g/L), and left ferm entingat 35°C and pH 4.0. The aeration and agitation were adjusted to attain k La values of 15, 60, 135, and 230 h−1. The highest hexokinase productivity (754.6 U/[L h]) and substrate-cell conversion yield (0.21 g/g) occurred for a k La of 60 h−1. Moreover, the formation of hexokinase and cell growth are coupled events, which is in accordance with the constitutive character of this enzyme. Hexokinase formation for k La>60 h−1 was not enhanced probably owing to saturation of the respiratory pathway by oxygen.  相似文献

A Bacillus subtilis isolate was shown to be able to produce extracellular protease in solid-state fermentations (SSF) using soy cake as culture medium. A significant effect of inoculum concentration and physiological age on protease production was observed. Maximum activities were obtained for inocula consisting of exponentially growing cells at inoculum concentrations in the range of 0.7–2.0 mg g−1. A comparative study on the influence of cultivation temperature and initial medium pH on protease production in SSF and in submerged fermentation (SF) revealed that in SSF a broader pH range (5–10), but the same optimum temperature (37°C), is obtained when compared to SF. A kinetic study showed that enzyme production is associated with bacterial growth and that enzyme inactivation begins before biomass reaches a maximum level for both SF and SSF. Maximum protease activity and productivity were 960 U g−1 and 15.4 U g−1 h−1 for SSF, and 12 U mL−1 and 1.3 U mL−1 h−1 for SF. When SSF protease activity was expressed by volume of enzyme extract, the enzyme level was 10-fold higher and the enzyme productivity 45% higher than in SF. These results indicate that this bacterial strain shows a high biotechnological potential for protease production in solid-state fermentation.  相似文献

Anoxic granulation process with four different inocula was monitored in a laboratory post-denitrification up-flow sludge bed (USB) reactor. Wastewater containing 20 mg L−1 NO3-N and methanol as an organic carbon source was used. Gradual increase of mass volumetric loading (B v) and hydraulic loading (γ) resulted in spontaneous granulation of anoxic biomass both from flocculant activated sludge and from anaerobic granulated sludge. With flocculant activated sludge as the inoculum, anoxic granules sedimentation properties and maximum loadings of the USB reactor depended on the sludge volume index (SVI) of the inoculum. B v,max achieved in the USB reactor with flocculant inoculum from a municipal wastewater treatment plant (SVI = 208 mL g−1) was only 4.2 kg of COD per m3 per day and 0.7 kg of NO3-N per m3 per day. B v,max using flocculant inoculum from an industrial wastewater treatment plant (SVI = 170 mL g−1) was 8.1 kg of COD per m3 per day and 1.35 kg of NO3-N per m3 per day. With anaerobic granulated inoculum (SVI range 8–11 mL g−1), markedly higher loadings in the USB reactor and lower SVI values of anoxic granulated biomass were achieved. Values of B v,max were in the range of 16.1–22.4 kg of COD per m3 per day and of 2.7–3.7 kg of NO3-N per m3 per day (depending on the inoculum and the granulation procedure). It was proved that anaerobic granulated sludge is not just an inoculum, it is also a carrier for new denitrification biomass.  相似文献

The liquid suspension culture of dissociated Nostoc flagelliforme cells was investigated. It was found that the growth rate of N. flagelliforme cells and the accumulation of exopolysaccharides (EPS) increased prominently when NaNO3 and KH2PO4 were added in the liquid BG-11culture medium though phosphate had little effect on EPS yield for specific mass of cells. N. flagelliforme cells grew well at 25 °C and neutral pH, however, a lower or higher temperature and weak alkaline can promote EPS accumulation. With the increase of the light intensity, the growth rate of N. flagelliforme cells and the EPS accumulation increase accordingly. When N. flagelliforme cells was cultured in BG-11 medium added with 2.5 g L−1 of NaNO3 and 0.956 g L−1 of KH2PO4 at 25 °C with 60 μmol photon m−2 s−1 of light intensity, 1.05 g L−1 cell density and 89.9 mg L−1 EPS yield were achieved respectively. Adopting the optimal conditions established in flask culture, the liquid culture of N. flagelliforme cells in 20-L photobioreactor for 16 days was conducted and a maximum biomass of 1.32 g L−1 was achieved, which was about 17.6-fold of that in the initial inoculation. The yield of EPS was 228.56 mg L−1and about 2.23-fold of that in flask culture. Moreover, the polysaccharides’ material was released into the culture medium during cell growth. These released polysaccharides (RPSs), which can be easily recovered from the medium, are favorable for industrial applications.  相似文献

The effect of ammonium nitrate concentration in the citric acid biosynthesis by Aspergillus niger NC-12 in single-stage continuous cultures with biomass retention was investigated. Experiments were carried out in a BIOMER laboratory fermenter with 5 dm3 working volume. At the initial stage of each cultivation, the substrate in the bioreactor contained 1.5 g NH4NO3 dm−3. After 120 h onwards, the bioreactor was fed continuously at a constant dilution rate of 0.009 h−1. NH4NO3 concentration in the feed was varied from one culture to another, ranging between 0.5 g dm−3 and 2.5 g dm−3. Promising results were obtained when NH4NO3 concentration of 1.5 g dm−3 was used. The observed concentration of citric acid (c P) and yield of citric acid with respect to the introduced sucrose (Y P/S) were 117.88 g dm−3 and 78.59 %, respectively. The efficiency coefficient of citric acid biosynthesis (K ef) was very high, amounting to 83.38.

Adsorption of vanadium(V) from aqueous solution onto ZnCl2 activated carbon developed from coconut coir pith was investigated to assess the possible use of this adsorbent. The influence of various parameters such as agitation time, vanadium concentration, adsorbent dose, pH and temperature has been studied. First, second order, Elovich and Bangham’s models were used to study the adsorption kinetics. The adsorption system follows second order and Bangham’s kinetic models. Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich and Temkin isotherms have been employed to analyze the adsorption equilibrium data. Equilibrium adsorption data followed all the four isotherms—Langmuir, Freundlich, D-R and Temkin. The Langmuir adsorption capacity (Q 0) was found to be 24.9 mg g− 1 of the adsorbent. The per cent adsorption was maximum in the pH range 4.0–9.0. The pH effect and desorption studies showed that ion exchange mechanism might be involved in the adsorption process. Thermodynamic parameters such as ΔG 0, ΔH 0 and ΔS 0 for the adsorption were evaluated. Effect of competitive anions in the aqueous solution such as PO4 3 −, SO4 2−, ClO4 , MoO4 2−, SeO3 2−, NO3 and Cl was examined. SEM and FTIR were used to study the surface of vanadium(V) loaded ZnCl2 activated carbon. Removal of vanadium(V) from synthetic ground water was also tested. Results show that ZnCl2 activated coir pith carbon is effective for the removal of vanadium(V) from water.  相似文献

The production of pullulan from beet molasses by a pigment-free strain of Aureobasidium pullulans on shake-flask culture was investigated. Combined pretreatment of molasses with sulfuric acid and activated carbon to remove potential fermentation inhibitors present in molasses resulted in a maximum pullulan concentration of 24 g/L, a biomass dry wt of 14 g/L, a pullulan yield of 52.5%, and a sugar utilization of 92% with optimum fermentation conditions (initial sugar concentration of 50 g/L and initial pH of 7.0). The addition of other nutrients as carbon and nitrogen supplements (olive oil, ammonium sulfate, yeast extract) did not further improve the production of the exopolysaccharides. Structural characterization of the isolated polysaccharides from the fermentation broths by 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and pullulanase digestion combined with size-exclusion chromatography confirmed the identity of pullulan and the homogeneity (>93% dry basis) of the elaborated polysaccharides by the microorganism. Using multiangle laser light scattering and refractive index detectors in conjunction with high-performance size-exclusion chromatography molecular size distributions and estimates of the molecular weight (M w =2.1−4.1×105), root mean square of the radius of gyration (R g =30−38 nm), and polydispersity index (M w /M n =1.4−2.4) were obtained. The fermentation products of molasses pretreated with sulfuric acid and/or activated carbon were more homogeneous and free of contaminating proteins. In the concentration range of 2.8−10.0 (w/v), the solution’s rheologic behavior of the isolated pullulans was almost Newtonian (within 1 and 1200 s−1 at 20°C); a slight shear thinning was observed at 10.0 (w/v) for the high molecular weight samples. Overall, beet molasses pretreated with sulfuric acid and activated carbon appears as an attractive fermentation medium for the production of pullulan by A. pullulans.  相似文献

A fed-batch culture system with constant feeding (glucose 80 g L−1, 0.25 ml min−1) was used to study the influence of glucose on cell dry weight and exopolysaccharides production from submerged Tremella fuciformis spores in a 5-L stirred-tank bioreactor. The results showed that high levels of cell mass (9.80 g L−1) and exopolysaccharides production (3.12 g L−1) in fed-batch fermentation were obtained after 1 h of feeding, where the specific growth rate (μ) and exopolysaccharides yield on substrate consumed (YP/S) were 0.267 d−1 and 0.14 g g−1. Unlike batch fermentation, maximal cell mass and exopolysaccharides production merely reached 7.11 and 2.08 g L−1; the specific growth rate (μ) and exopolysaccharides yield on substrate consumed (YP/S) were 0.194 d−1 and 0.093 g g−1, respectively. It is concluded that the synthesis of exopolysaccharides can be promoted effectively when feeding glucose at a late exponential phase.  相似文献

A cellulase production process was developed by growing the fungi Trichoderma reesei and Aspergillus phoenicis on dairy manure. T. reesei produced a high total cellulase titer (1.7 filter paper units [FPU]/mL, filter paper activity) in medium containing 10 g/L of manure (dry basis [w/w]), 2 g/L KH2PO4, 2 mL/L of Tween-80, and 2mg/L of CoCl2. However, β-glucosidase activity in the T. reesei-enzyme system was very low. T. reesei was then cocultured with A. phoenicis to enhance the β-glucosidase level. The mixed culture resulted in a relatively high level of total cellulase (1.54 FPU/mL) and β-glucosidase (0.64 IU/mL). The ratio of β-glucosidase activity to filter paper activity was 0.41, suitable for hydrolyzing manure cellulose. The crude enzyme broth from the mixed culture was used for hydrolyzing the manure cellulose, and the produced glucose was significantly (p<0.01) higher than levels obtained by using the commercial enzyme or the enzyme broth of the pure culture T. reesei.  相似文献

EDTA, the target compound of this study from the effluent of secondary biotreatment units, can be biodegraded by special microorganisms. So far, there are three species of microorganisms—Agrobacterium, Gram-negative BNCI, and DSM9103—that can degrade EDTA and are published in the literature. We have successfully isolated a bacterial strain that can degrade EDTA. It was identified as Burkhol cepacia, an aerobic species, elliptically shaped with a length of 5–15 μm. The growth medium contains 1000 mg/L of ferric-EDTA as carbon source, 750 mg/L of (NH4)2SO4+(NH2)2CO as nitrogen source, and 1000 mg/L of KH2PO4 as phosphorus source, and mineral factors such as Fe and Mg. Incubated at pH, 7.0, 30°C, and 150 rpm on a shaker for 15 d, the average specific growth rate of this microbe is 0.135 d−1, which shows that the respective degradation efficiency of Fe-EDTA and Cu-EDTA is 90 and 75% individually.  相似文献

A simple method for determination of common inorganic anions in mushroom samples has been developed by using suppressed ion chromatography with a pH detection unit. The detection unit which was constructed in such a way that practically no additional dispersion occurred consisted of a flow-through quinhydrone pH sensor and a small reference electrode. Chromatographic separation was performed in the order F, Cl, NO2, Br, PO43−, ClO3, NO3, and SO42−, at room temperature by using Ion Pac AS 9-HC anion exchange column. Anion extracts from dried mushroom samples at room temperature were homogenized and filtered before injection. Under optimized analytical conditions, the detection limits of the method were between 2 × 10−6 and 3 × 10−4 M, depending on the anion studied. The results showed that the concentrations of fluoride and bromide in all mushroom samples were below their limit of detection. Nitrite was found to be the lowest abundant ion, while the most abundant ion was sulfate in all the mushroom samples studied.  相似文献

Optimization of submerged culture conditions for the production of mycelial growth and exopolysaccharides (EPSs) by Collybia maculata was investigated. The optimum temperature and the initial pH for EPS production in a shake-flask culture of C. maculata were found to be 20°C and 5.5, respectively. Among the various medium’s constituents examined, glucose, Martone A-1, K2HPO4, and CaCl2 were the most suitable carbon, nitrogen, and mineral sources for EPS production, respectively. The optimum concentration of the medium’s ingredients determined using the orthogonal matrix method was as follows: 30 g/L of glucose, 20 g/L of Martone A-1, 1g/L of K2HPO4, and 1g/L of CaCl2. Under the optimized culture conditions, the maximum concentration of EPSs in a 5-L stirred-tank reactor was 2.4 g/L, which was approximately five times higher than that in the basal medium. A comparative fermentation result showed that the EPS productivity in an airlift reactor was higher than that in the stirred-tank reactor despite the lower mycelial growth rate. The specific productivities and the yield coefficients in the airlift reactor were higher than those in the stirred-tank reactor even though the volumetric productivities were higher in the stirred-tank reactor than in the airlift reactor.  相似文献

 A lead electrode was studied in 6 and 12 M H3PO4. Oxidation of a freshly polished electrode occurred in the −0.5 to −0.3 V vs. SCE range, and led to PbHPO4 growth on the electrode surface. The dissolution of this layer by electrochemical reduction occurred between −0.5 and −0.7 V. The influence of temperature (20 °C and 65 °C) was investigated and showed that the anodic and the cathodic peaks were increasing, and more markedly for the 12 M H3PO4. The ratio Q cathodic/Q anodic (Q=electrical charge flowing through the electrode) was equal or close to the unity at 20 °C and decreased as the temperature was increased. The influence of Cl, Br and I ions was also evaluated. The addition of Cl and Br predominantly led to Pb5(PO4)3Cl and Pb5(PO4)3Br, respectively, while I led to a mixture of PbI2 and PbHPO4.

Candida guilliermondii FTI 20037 was cultured in sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate supplemented with 2.0 g/L of (NH4)2SO4, 0.1 g/L of CaCl2·2H2O, and 20.0 g/L of rice bran at 35°C; pH 4.0; agitation of 300 rpm; and aeration of 0.4, 0.6, or 0.8 vvm. The high xylitol production (20.0 g/L) and xylose reductase (XR) activity (658.8 U/mg of protein) occurred at an aeration of 0.4 vvm. Under this condition, the xylitol dehydrogenase (XD) activity was low. The apparent K M for XR and XD against substrates and cofactors were as follows: for XR, 6.4×10−2 M (xylose) and 9.5×10−3 mM (NADPH); for XD, 1.6×10−1 M (xylitol) and 9.9×10−2 mM (NAD+). Because XR requires about 10-fold less xylose and cofactor than XD for the condition in which the reaction rate is half of the V max, some interference on the overall xylitol production by the yeast could be expected.  相似文献

The effect of carbon source and its concentration, inoculum size, yeast extract concentration, nitrogen source, pH of the fermentation medium, and fermentation temperature on β-glucosidase production by Kluyveromyces marxianus in shake-flask culture was investigated. These were the independent variables that directly regulated the specific growth and β-glucosidase production rate. The highest product yield, specific product yield, and productivity of β-glucosidase occurred in the medium (pH 5.5) inoculated with 10% (v/v) inoculum of the culture. Cellobiose (20 g/L) significantly improved β-glucosidase production measured as product yield (Y P/S ) and volumetric productivity (Q P ) followed by sucrose, lactose, and xylose. The highest levels of productivity (144 IU/[L·h]) of β-glucosidase occurred on cellobiose in the presence of CSL at 35°C and are significantly higher than the values reported by other researchers on almost all other organisms. The thermodynamics and kinetics of β-glucosidase production and its deactivation are also reported. The enzyme was substantially stable at 60°C and may find application in some industrial processes.  相似文献

The sorption of anions H2PO4 , HPO4 2−, PO4 3−, [Fe(CN)6]3−, and [Fe(CN)6]4− from aqueous solutions on the surface of FeIII and ZrIV oxyhydroxide hydrogels freshly precipitated at pH 4–13 was studied. The region of sorbate concentrations was from 0.00025 to 0.06 mol L−1. The plots of the anion uptakes vs. their equilibrium concentrations are represented by isotherms of the first type, which are well described by the Langmuir equation if the quantity of the amount adsorbed is expressed as mol-site g−1. The maximum uptakes and constants of the Langmuir equation were calculated. The phosphate anions occupy the same number of sorption sites on the sorbents precipitated at different pH. The average specific content of sorption sites for the ferro- and zirconogels in the metastability period is independent of the pH of their precipitation, being 3.1·10−3 and 3.2·10−3 mol-site g−1, respectively. The [Fe(CN)6]3− and [Fe(CN)6]4− anions are sorbed only on the positively charged sites of the hydrogels and occupy not more than 2·10 mol-site g−1 in the studied interval of pH of precipitation. __________ Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.
