Fermentation condition outweighed truffle species in affecting volatile organic compounds analyzed by chromatographic fingerprint system

The influences of fermentation conditions and truffle species (i.e., Tuber melanosporum, Tuber sinense, Tuber indicum, and Tuber aestivum) on the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) originated from truffle fermentation mycelia were studied by using chromatographic fingerprint system for the first time. Gas chromatography combined with statistical methods including similarity analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis was applied to develop chromatographic fingerprint system for truffle VOCs evaluation. Fermentation conditions affected the VOCs from truffle fermentation mycelia much more significantly than truffle species. This indicated that it is possible to adjust the aroma of truffle fermentation mycelia similar with the natural fruiting-body through the control of fermentation process.

Preclinical Bioavailability,Tissue Distribution,and Protein Binding Studies of Erinacine A,a Bioactive Compound from Hericium erinaceus Mycelia Using Validated LC-MS/MS Method

Erinacine A, derived from the mycelia of Hericium erinaceus, has attracted much attention due to its neuroprotective properties. However, very few studies have been conducted on the bioavailability, tissue distribution, and protein binding of erinacine A. This study aimed to investigate the bioavailability, tissue distribution, and protein binding of erinacine A in Sprague-Dawley rats. After oral administration (po) and intravenous administration (iv) of 2.381 g/kg BW of the H. erinaceus mycelia extract (equivalent to 50 mg/kg BW of erinacine A) and 5 mg/kg BW of erinacine A, respectively, the absolute bioavailability of erinacine A was estimated as 24.39%. Erinacine A was detected in brain at 1 h after oral dosing and reached the peak at 8 h. Protein binding assay showed unbound erinacine A fractions in brain to blood ratio is close to unity, supporting passive diffusion as the dominating transport. Feces was the major route for the elimination of erinacine A. This study is the first to show that erinacine A can penetrate the blood-brain barrier of rats by the means of passive diffusion and thus support the development of H. erinaceus mycelia for the improvement of neurohealth.     

Biotransformation with whole microbial systems in a continuous flow reactor: resolution of (RS)-flurbiprofen using Aspergillus oryzae by direct esterification with ethanol in organic solvent

Cell-bound lipases of dry mycelium of Aspergillus oryzae were used in organic solvent for the resolution of racemic flurbiprofen by direct esterification with ethanol in a flow-chemistry reactor. Under flow conditions a significant reduction of the reaction time and an increase of the enantioselectivity were achieved compared to the batch mode. Moreover, the process was implemented by adding an in-line purification step integrated with the racemization of the unreacted flurbiprofen directly into a polymer-supported resin.

Penicillin fermentation in a 200-Liter tower fermentor using cells confined to microbeads

The scale-up of the penicillin fermentation through cell confinement in a 200-L tower fermentor is described.P. chrysogenum spores were adsorbed into Celite microbeads having diameters greater than 180 Μm. Fed-batch fermentations were performed using both free and confined cells. Cell growth and penicillin concentrations were measured during the fermentation. In addition, the oxygen transfer rate, the aeration rate, and the level of dissolved oxygen were also measured. Significant improvement in the mass transfer coefficient was found when the cells were anchored onto the microbeads. This improved oxygen transfer rate was accompanied by higher production of penicillin at a lower aeration rate. Besides the improved oxygen transfer rate into the mycelial broth, a reduction of the energy input for the oxygen transfer was observed. The confinement of the cells to this microcarrier furthermore allowed the in-termittent harvesting of fermentation broth without reducing the cell mass in the fermentor.
