Batch fermentations of sugar cane bagasse hemicellulosic hydrolysate treated for removing the inhibitors of the fermentation
were performed byCandida guilliermondii FTI20037 for xylitol production. The fermentative parameters agitation and aeration rate were studied aiming the maximization
of xylitol production from this agroindustrial residue. The maximal xylitol volumetric productivity (0.87 g/L h) and yield
(0.67 g/g) were attained at 400/min and 0.45 v.v.m. (KLa 27/h). According to the results, a suitable control of the oxygen input permitting the xylitol formation from sugar cane
bagasse hydrolysate is required for the development of an efficient fermentation process for large-scale applications. 相似文献

Xylose reductase (XR) activity was evaluated in extracts of Candida mogii grown in media containing different concentrations of rice straw hydrolysate. Results of X Ractivity were compared to xylitol
production and a similar behavior was observed for these parameters. Highest values of specific production and productivity
were found for xylose reductase (35 U/g of cell and 0.97 U/[g of cell·h], respectively) and for xylitol (5.63 g/g of cell
and 0.13 g/[g of cell·h]) in fermentation conducted in medium containing 49.2 g of xylose/L. The maximum value of XR:XD ratio
(1.82) was also calculated under this initial xylose concentration with 60 h of fermentation. 相似文献

Batch, fed-batch, and semicontinuous fermentation processes were used for the production of xylitol from sugarcane bagasse
hemicellulosic hydrolysate. The best results were achieved by the semicontinuous fermentation process: a xylitol yield of
0.79 g/g with an efficiency of 86% and a volumetric productivity of 0.66 g/L/h. 相似文献

The fermentation kinetics for the conversion of rice straw hemicellulosic hydrolysate to xylitol by the yeast Candida guilliermondii was evaluated under batch conditions. The fermentation was accomplished in a 1 L working volume stirred-tank reactor with
aeration of 1.3 vvm and agitation of 300 rpm (kLa=15/h). The maximum specific rate of xylitol formation (0.12 g/g) was achieved when the specific growth rate was lowered
to 1/5 of its highest value. From analysis of the fermentation kinetics, a linear correlation between specific growth rate
(μx) and specific rate of xylitol formation (qp) was evident. Based on the Gaden model, this bioprocess was classified as growth-associated production and the relationship
between μx and qp can be described by the equation qp=6.31μx. 相似文献

Xylitol dehydrogenase (EC1.1.1.9) from xylose-grown cells ofCandida shehatae was purified 215-fold by sequential chromatography on NAD-C8 affinity, Superose-12, and Cibacron blue columns, and a single
band was observed by SDS gel electrophoresis. The purified enzyme had a native molecular weight of 82 kDa and a denatured
molecular weight of 40 kDa following SDS gel electrophoresis, indicating that it was composed of two subunits. Alcohol dehydrogenase
copurified on the NAD-C8 but was substantially removed by Superose-12 and was not detected following Cibacron blue chromatography.
The kinetic properties of the C.shehatae xylitol dehydrogenase differed considerably from those described previously for thePachysolen tannophilus enzyme. The Km of the C.shehatae enzyme for xylitol was 3.8 times smaller, whereas the Km for xylulose was 1.7-fold bigger. These factors could account for the lower xylitol production by C.shehatae. 相似文献

Xylitol is a sweetener with important technological properties like anticariogenicity, low caloric value, and negative dissolution
heat. Because it can be used successfully in food formulations and pharmaceutical industries, its production is in great demand.
Xylitol can be obtained by microbiological process, since many yeasts and filamentous fungi synthesize the xylose reductase
enzyme, which catalyses the xylose reduction into xylitol as the first step in the xylose metabolism. The xylitol production
by biotechnological means has several economic advantages in comparison with the conventional process based on the chemical
reduction of xylose. The efficiency and the productivity of this fermentation chiefly depends upon the microorganism and the
process conditions employed. In this mini-review, the most significant upstream parameters on xylitol production by biotechnological
process are described. 相似文献

The rate of xylitol production from D-xylose increased with increasing yeast cell density. The optimal temperature for xylitol
production is 36‡ C, and the optimal pH range is from 4.0 to 6.0. At high initial yeast cell concentration of 26 mg/mL, 210
g/L of xylitol was produced from 260 g/L of D-xylose after 96 h of incubation with an indicated yield of 81% of the theoretical
value. 相似文献

The effect of pH, time of fermentation, and xylose and glucose concentration on xylitol production, cell growth, xylose reductase
(XR), and xylitol dehydrogenase (XD) activities ofCandida guilliermondii FTI 20037 were determined. For attaining XR and XD activities of 129-2190 U/mg of protein and 24-917 U/mg of protein, respectively,
the cited parameters could vary as follows: initial pH: 3.0-5.0; xylose: 15-60 g/L; glucose: 0-5 g/L; and fermentation time:
12-24 h. Moreover, the high XR and XD activities occurred when the xylitol production by the yeast was less than 19.0 g/L. 相似文献

Microalgae are unique photosynthetic organisms that are known to accumulate storage lipids in large quantitites and thrive
in saline waters. Before these storage lipids can be used, they must be extracted from the microalgae and converted into usable
fuel. Transesterification of lipids produces fatty acid methyl esters that can be used as a diesel fuel substitute.
Three solvents, 1-butanol, ethanol, and hexane/2-propanol, were evaluated for extraction efficiency of microalgal lipids.
Type of catalyst, concentration of catalyst, time of reaction, temperature of reaction, and quality of lipid were examined
as variables for transesterification. The most efficient solvent of the three for extraction was 1-butanol (90% efficiency),
followed by hexane/2-propanol and ethanol. Optimal yield of fatty acid methyl esters was obtained using 0.6N hydrochloric
acid in methanol for 0.1 h at 70°C. 相似文献

The production cost of cellulolytic enzymes is a major contributor to the high cost of ethanol production from lignocellulosics
using enzymatic hydrolysis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the cellulolytic enzyme production ofTrichoderma reesei Rut C 30, which is known as a good cellulase secreting micro-organism, using willow as the carbon source. The willow, which
is a fast-growing energy crop in Sweden, was impregnated with 1–4% SO2 and steam-pretreated for 5 min at 206°C. The pretreated willow was washed and the wash water, which contains several soluble
sugars from the hemicellulose, was supplemented with fibrous pretreated willow and used for enzyme production. In addition
to sugars, the liquid contains degradation products such as acetic acid, furfural, and 5-hydroxy-methylfurfural, which are
inhibitory for microorganisms. The results showed that 50% of the cellulose can be replaced with sugars from the wash water.
The highest enzyme activity, 1.79 FPU/mL and yield, 133 FPU/g carbohydrate, was obtained at pH 6.0 using 20 g/L carbon source
concentration. At lower pHs, a total lack of growth and enzyme production was observed, which probably could be explained
by furfural inhibition. 相似文献

This study deals with the bioconversion of xylose into xylitol by Candida guilliermondii FTI 20037 using eucalyptus hemicellulosic hydrolysate obtained by acid hydrolysis. The influence of various parameters (ammonium
sulfate, rice bran, pH, and xylose concentration) on the production of xylitol was evaluated. The experiments were based on
multivariate statistical concepts, with the application of factorial design techniques to identify the most important variables
in the process. The levels of these variables were quantified by the response surface methodology, which permitted the establishment
of a significant mathematical model with a coefficient determination of R
2=0.92. The best results (xylitol=10.0 g/L, yield factor=0.2 g/g, and productivity=0.1 g/[L·h]) were attained with hydrolysate
containing ammonium sulfate (1.1 g/L), rice bran (5.0 g/L), and xylose (initial concentration of 60.0 g/L), after 72 h of
fermentation. The pH of fermentation was adjusted to 8.0 and the inoculum level utilized was 3 g/L. 相似文献

The effect of an external supply of carbon dioxide and pH on the production of succinic acid byAnaerobiospirillum succiniciproducens was studied. In a rich medium containing yeast extract and peptone, when the external carbon dioxide supply was provided
by a 1.5M Na2CO3 solution that also was used to maintain the pH at 6.0, no additional carbon dioxide supply was needed. In fact, sparging
CO2 gas into the fermenter at 0.025 L/L-min or higher rates resulted in significant decreases in both production rate and yield
of succinate. Under the same conditions, the production of the main by-product acetate was not affected by sparging CO2 gas into the fermenter. The optimum pH (pH 6.0) for the production of succinic acid was found to be in agreement with results
previously reported in the literature. Succinic acid production also was studied in an industrial-type inexpensive medium
in which light steep water was the only source of organic nutrients. At pH 6.0 and with a CO2 gas sparge rate of 0.08 L/L-min, succinate concentration reached a maximum of 32 g/L in 27 h with a yield of 0.99 g succinate/g
glucose consumed. 相似文献

Alkalophylic bacilli that produce cyclodextringlycosyltransferase (CGTase) were isolated from Brazilian soil, with a scheme
of two plating steps. In the first step, the bacterial isolate forms a halo in the cultivation medium that contains γ-cyclodextrin
(CD) complexing dyes. The CGTase of an isolate was purified 157-fold by biospecific affinity chromatography, with β-CD showing
a mol wt of 77,580 Daltons. It produces a γ- to β-CD ratio of 0.156 and a small amount of α-CD, using maltodextrin 10% as
substrate, at 50°C, pH 8.0 and 22 h reaction time, reaching 21.4% conversion of the substrate to cyclodextrins. In the second
screening step, the isolates chosen give larger halos with β-CD complexing dyes, and smaller halos with β-CD complexing dyes,
leading to a 30% improvement in γ-CD selectivity, although at lower total yield for cyclodextrins (11.5%). 相似文献

Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the most plentiful and potentially cheapest feedstocks for ethanol production. The cellulose
component can be broken down into glucose by enzymes and then converted to ethanol by yeast. However, hydrolysis of cellulose
to glucose is difficult, and some form of pretreatment is necessary to increase the susceptibility of cellulose to enzymatic
attack. An analysis has been completed of two pretreatment options, dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis and sulfur dioxide impregnated
steam explosion, for two feedstocks, wheat straw and aspen wood chips. Detailed process flow sheets and material and energy
balances were used to generate equipment cost information. A technical and economic analysis compared the two feedstocks for
each of the two pretreatments. For the same pretreatment, sugars produced from aspen wood hydrolysis were cheaper because
of the higher carbohydrate content of aspen, whereas dilute acid pretreatment is favored over acid-catalyzed steam explosion. 相似文献

This article presents the advanced technology that has been developed by BioEnergy International of Gainesville, Florida,
utilizing novel recombinant strains of bacteria developed by Lonnie Ingram of the University of Florida. The first commercial
applications of these unique fermenting organisms convert 5-carbon sugars, as well as 6-carbon sugars, and oligomers of cellulose
(e.g., cellobiose and cellotriose) directly to ethanol. The proposed systems that will be utilized for conversion of agricultural
wastes, mixed waste papers, and pulp and paper mill waste in forthcoming commercial installations are now under design. This
involves the extensive experience of Raphael Katzen Associates International, Inc. in acid hydrolysis, enzyme production,
enzymatic hydrolysis, large-scale fermentation engineering, and distillation/dehydration.
Specific examples of this advanced technology will be presented in different applications, namely:

1. | Conversion of the hemicellulose content of sugar cane bagasse to 5-carbon sugars by mild-acid prehydrolysis, followed by fermentation of the 5-carbon sugar extract with recombinantEscherichia coli in a commercial installation soon to be under construction in Brazil. This unique process utilizes the surplus hemicellulose fraction of bagasse not required for steam and power generation to produce ethanol, additional to that from the original cane juice, which has been converted by conventional sucrose fermentation to ethanol. The process also recovers and converts to ethanol the majority of sucrose normally lost with the bagasse fibers. Resultant beer is enriched in an innovative process to eliminate the need for incremental rectification capacity. |
2. | Application of this technology to mixed waste paper in Florida, with a moderate loading of newsprint (85% mechanical wood fiber), will involve a mild-acid prehydrolysis, the partial extraction of the 5-carbon sugars produced from hemicellulose as a feedstock for propagation of the recombinantKlebsiella oxytoca bacterium. Included is a facility providing for in-house production of cellulase enzyme, as an active whole broth for direct use in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of the remaining cellulose and residual 5-carbon sugars to ethanol. This is followed by distillation and dehydration in the advanced commercially available low-energy recovery system. |
3. | Another potential application of this unique technology involves utilization of a variety of wastes from several pulp and paper mills in close proximity, permitting collection of these wastes at low cost and reducing the considerable cost encountered in disposing of such low-energy wet waste. Based on pilot plant experiences with converting such waste by simultaneous enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation, the same techniques will be applied as in the second case, with use of acid prehydrolysis only if the hemicellulose-derived sugars can be economically recovered. If not, acid hydrolysis will be eliminated and only the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation will be carried out, utilizing in-house-produced enzyme broth and recombinantKlebsiella oxytoca. |

C-peptide radioimmunoassay (C-peptide RIA) is widely used in determination of pancreatic B-cell secretion activity.125I labeled TyrC-peptide is indispensable in C-peptide RIA kit. Herein we discuss a way of obtaining recombinant Tyr-C-peptide.
Arg32Tyr human proinsulin mutant (R32Y-proinsulin) gene was constructed by site-directed mutagenesis and overexpressed inEscherichia coli. Purified R32Y-proinsulin was converted to insulin and Tyr-C-peptide by trypsin and carboxypeptidase B codigestion. Tyr-C-peptide
was isolated through reverse-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) and identified by C-peptide RIA and amino acid analysis. 相似文献

Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) processes for producing ethanol from lignocellulose are capable of improved
hydrolysis rates, yields, and product concentrations compared to separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) systems, because
the continuous removal of the sugars by the yeasts reduces the end-product inhibition of the enzyme complex. Recent experiments
using Genencor 150L cellulase and mixed yeast cultures have produced yields and concentrations of ethanol from cellulose of
80% and 4.5%, respectively. The mixed culture was employed because B.clausenii has the ability to ferment cellobiose (further reducing end-product inhibition), while the brewing yeastS. cerevisiae provides a robust ability to ferment the monomeric sugars. These experimental results are combined with a process model to
evaluate the economics of the process and to investigate the effect of alternative processes, conditions, and organisms. 相似文献

Thielavia terrestris 255B, a thermophilic ascomycete, produced two major forms of xylanase with pIs of 4.6 (xylanase I) and 6.1 (xylanase II).
The latter enzyme could be purified to > 99% homogeneity using anion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Xylanase
II had a mol wt of 25.7 kDa (SDS-PAGE) and a pH and a temperature optimum of 3.6–4.0 and 60–65°C, respectively. The ratio
of the enzyme’s activity against xylan and carboxymethylcellulose was 500–1000 to 1, indicating a possible application of
this enzyme in biobleaching processes. The amino acid sequence of this protein is being determined, and initial data suggest
that the enzyme belongs to a group of low-mol wt xylanases that have been isolated from both bacteria and fungi. 相似文献

Several reports exist in the literature citing the decrease in conversion rates of organic-phase catalytic synthesis reactions
when acetic acid is present as a reaction component. This inhibition is thought to result from damage to either the hydration
layer-protein interaction or the overall enzyme structure. In this work, the inhibitory effect of acetic acid on lipase enzyme
activity was ameliorated by conducting syntheses under acetic acid-limiting conditions in a fed-batch system, resulting in
higher product yields. Periodic additions of acetic acid at levels of 40 mM or less gave maximum yields of 65% conversion for the reaction of citronellol and acetic acid to form citronellyl acetate.
The enzyme used was a fungal lipase fromMucor miehei, and was immobilized on macroporous synthetic resin (a Novo lipozyme Novo Nordisk, Denmark). These results represent a fourfold
improvement over batch runs reported in the literature for direct esterification of terpene alcohol with acetic acid using
lipozyme as a catalytic agent. 相似文献
