Um de seus derivados químicos - o Poliquilgerm® - evidencia propriedades antifúngicas sobre Candida albicans e bacteriostática/bactericida sobre Escherichia coli ao nível de 99,9%. Considerando-se estas propriedades aplicou-se o Poliquilgerm em culturas de Leuconostoc mesenteroides, uma bactéria contaminante freqüente dos mostos em indústrias sucro-alcooleiras. Esta bactéria quando contaminante de mostos produz além do ácido láctico a dextrana, um polímero de glicose de consistência gelatinosa que aumenta a viscosidade dos fluidos dos processos. Devido a estas características, no presente trabalho avaliou-se o efeito de diferentes concentrações do Poliquilgerm sobre a viscosidade de soluções de dextrana, bem como em culturas de L. mesenteroides. Analisando-se as soluções de dextrana em contato com o produto conclui-se que o Poliquilgerm® não induziu hidrólise nas ligações glicosídicas da dextrana. O produto nas concentrações de 1,0 e 0,2% inibiu o crescimento de L. mesenteroides alcançando até 100% em ambas as concentrações, evidenciado por quantificação da biomassa e confirmado mediante plaqueamento por técnica Pour Plate, onde a inibição foi de 98% na diminuição das UFC/mL após 24 horas em contato com 1,0% do produto. Em relação à viscosidade da cultura, verificou-se até 20,56% de diminuição quando utilizados 1,0% do produto. Em cultura mista (L. mesenteroides e S. cerevisiae), registrou-se até 6,8% de diminuição da viscosidade. Verificou-se que S. cerevisiae apresenta sensibilidade ao Poliquilgerm nas concentrações 1,0 e 0,2% apenas no tempo inicial, pois após 24 horas a cultura atinge o mesmo nível de crescimento do controle, adaptando-se à presença do produto... / Castor-oil, extracted from seeds of Ricinus communis L., is normally applied in natura or in its modified form in medical, pharmaceutical and industrial areas. One of its chemical derivates – the Poliquilgerm® - showed antifungal properties on Candida albicans, and bacteriostatic/bactericide ones on Escherichia coli reaching 99.9%. Considering these features, Poliquilgerm was applied in cultures of Leuconostoc mesenteroides, a frequent contaminant bacterium of musts on sugar and alcohol industries. This bacterium when contaminant of must produce beyond lactic acid the dextran, a polymer of glucose, with gelatinous consistency which may increase the operation fluids viscosity. Due to these characteristics, in the present study, the effect of different concentrations of Poliquilgerm on viscosity of dextran’s solutions and on cultures of L. mesenteroides was evaluated. Analyzing the solutions of dextrana in contact with the product, it was concluded that it did not induce hydrolysis on glycosidic links. The product in concentrations of 1.0 and 0.2% inhibited the growth of L. mesenteroides reaching up to 100% in both concentrations, as evidenced by biomass quantification and confirmed by plating by Pour Plate technique, which inhibition was 98% of decrease in the CFU / mL after 24 hours in contact with 1.0% of the product. In relation to the culture viscosity, it was observed 20.56% of reduction when it was used 1.0% of the product. In mixed culture (L. mesenteroides and S. cerevisiae), it was registered up to 6.8% of decrease in viscosity. It was observed that S. Cerevisiae shows sensitivity to 1.0 and 0.2% concentrations of Poliquilgerm only at the initial time, because after 24 hours the culture reaches the same level of growth control, getting adaptated to the presence of the product. It was studied the Poliquilgerm hydrolytic activity on release of ART...(Complete abstract, click electronic access below)

Ação de ultra-som em leveduras no processo de fermentação etanólica /

Pedro, Cláudia Ribeiro Leone. January 2008 (has links)
Resumo: O crescente interesse mundial no aumento da produção do etanol como combustível alternativo bem como seu uso na indústria alcoolquímica através de processos de fermentação, tem proporcionado o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias que auxiliem no aumento de sua produtividade e rendimento. Este estudo, portanto relata a influência das ondas ultra-sônicas durante processo fermentativo quando aplicada radiação em mosto contendo Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Dessa forma objetivou-se verificar se a aplicação do ultra-som no processo fermentativo induz alguma alteração quanto à produção de etanol. As ondas ultra-sônicas foram geradas com sonda vibratória de 19 KHz, a potência de 80 W com duração de 30 segundos a cada aplicação efetuada. Foram realizados quatro experimentos fermentativos empregando-se Saccharomyces cerevisiae na forma de fermento fresco prensado Fleischmann Royal ®. Celular Todos os experimentos foram elaborados com 5 repetições e as amostras para as análises dos experimentos I, III e IV, foram coletadas tempos 3; 6 e 9 horas de fermentação, exceto no experimento II que as amostragens foram nos tempos 1,5; 3 e 4,5 horas. As amostras para as análises destes, foram coletadas antes e após o procedimento de irradiação. Em todos os experimentos houve a coleta de amostras controle. Analisou-se nos mostos fermentados do experimento I: pH, acidez sulfúrica, número de células,viabilidade celular, produção de etanol, açúcar residual total e rendimentos fermentativos (prático, teórico, real e real do prático). Nos experimentos II, III e IV analisou-se somente a produção de etanol. No experimento IV foi realizado reciclo de células onde as células foram submetidas a 3 fermentações sucessivas. Os dados comparativos indicaram que a irradiação com ultra-som, diminui o pH e aumenta a acidez sulfúrica, quando comparado ao controle, supondo-se como...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo) / Abstract: The growing international interest in ethanol as an alternative to fossil fuels, as well as its industrial use by means of fermentative processes, has led to the development of new technologies aiming to increase ethanol productivity. This study therefore reports the influence of ultrasonic wave irradiation applied to sugar cane yeast containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Anyway the objective was to analyze the effects of ultrasound on the production of ethanol. The ultrasonic waves were generated with a vibratory frequency of 19 KHz, potency of 80 W, with 30 seconds duration during each treatment. A series of four fermentative experiments were performed using Saccharomyces cerevisiae contained in the fresh yeast Fleischmann Royal ®. All experiments were performed with 5 repetitions. For experiments I, III, and IV, samples were analyzed at 3, 6, and 9 hours after starting the fermentation process; whereas in the experiment II sampling was performed at 1.5, 3, and 4.5 hours of fermentation. Sample collection was performed before and after the irradiation procedure. In all experiments control samples were collected. The pH, sulphuric acidity, cell viability, number of cells, ethanol production, total residual sugar, fermentative output (practical, theoretical, real, and practical of real) were determined in the yeast of experiment I. For experiments II, III, and IV, only ethanol production was determined. During experiment IV cells were recycled for 3 successive fermentations. The comparative data showed that ultrasound irradiation reduced the pH and increased sulphuric acidity when compared to the control; these effects were possibly caused by an increase in organic acids and in CO2 production...(Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Orientador: Roberto Naves Domingos / Coorientador: Dejanira de Franceschi de Angelis / Banca: Carlos Renato Corso / Banca: Cassiana Maria Reganhan Coneglian / Mestre

No. of bitstreams: 0 / A Prolactina (PRL) é um dos hormônios mais versáteis em termos de ação biológica. Sua ação mais conhecida está relacionada com o estímulo da lactação e regulação do crescimento e da diferenciação da glândula mamária; também apresenta importante aplicação diagnóstica. Somando os crescentes estudos sobre suas possíveis aplicações terapêuticas, fica cada vez mais notória a necessidade da obtenção desse hormônio puro, biologicamente ativo e na sua forma autêntica.O objetivo fundamental desse projeto foi a produção de hPRL em escala laboratorial a partir de bactérias (E.coli) modificadas geneticamente, utilizando um sistema de expressão baseado no promotor Lambda () PL, o mesmo utilizado com sucesso em nosso laboratório na expressão do hGH. Descrevemos nesse trabalho um processo de cultivo em biorreator, onde não foi utilizado o repressor cIts, uma proteína termo-sensível que usualmente é utilizada para inibir o funcionamento do promotor PL durante crescimento a 30ºC. O processo de cultivo apresenta basicamente três etapas: na primeira etapa o crescimento é realizado sem adição contínua de nutrientes (cultivo em batch), na segunda etapa ocorre adição contínua de nutrientes e carboidrato (cultivo em fed-batch) e na última etapa é realizada a ativação, caracterizada pelo aumento da temperatura mantendo-se a adição de nutrientes e carboidrato. Esse processo de fermentação rápido e flexível, com duração média de 20 horas, permitiu obter uma biomassa final correspondente à densidade óptica de aproximadamente 30 A600nm (unidades ópticas de absorbância em 600nm) e com uma expressão da ordem de 1g de hPRL mL-1 A600 -1, as mais altas já relatadas para secreção de prolactina no espaço periplásmico. A hPRL monomérica foi purificada e caracterizada por métodos físico-químicos e biológicos, os quais confirmaram a sua atividade biológica e imunológica, o seu correto processamento e uma massa molecular relativa (Mr) de 22.906. / Dissertacao (Mestrado) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Integrated bioprocess to boost cellulosic bioethanol titers and yields

Xu, Youjie January 1900 (has links)
Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Biological & Agricultural Engineering / Donghai Wang / Among potential alternative liquid fuels, bioethanol is the widest utilized transportation fuels and mainly made from grains. Cellulosic biofuels provide environmental benefits not available from grain or sugar-based biofuels and are considered as a solid foundation to meet transportation fuels needs in a low-carbon economy, albeit with electrified vehicles and other technical advances. The objective of this research was to develop and optimize various bioprocessing units to boost cellulosic bioethanol titers and yields in order to accelerate the commercialization of cellulosic bioethanol production. The results showed high-solids biomass bioconversion (12%, w/v) was inefficient in the laboratory rotary shaker. However, a horizontal reactor with good mixing was effective for high solids loading (20%, w/v), yielding 75 g/L of glucose. To achieve the minimal economical ethanol distillation requirement of 40 g/L, integrated bioprocesses were conducted to boost ethanol titers and yields through co-fermentation of starchy grain and cellulosic biomass. The maximum ethanol concentration (68.7 g/L) was achieved at the corn flour and hydrothermal-treated corn stover ratio of 12:12 using raw starch granular enzyme with the ethanol yield of 86.0%. Co-fermentation of starchy substrate with hydrolysate liquor from saccharified biomass was able to significantly enhance ethanol concentration and reduce energy cost for distillation without sacrificing ethanol yields. These results indicated integration of first and second generation ethanol production could significantly accelerate the commercialization of cellulosic biofuel production. Novel technology, modified simultaneous saccharification and fermentation, was firstly established to enhance ethanol titers and yields, which achieved high ethanol titers of 72.3 g/L at high biomass loadings of 30% (w/v) with 70.0% ethanol yield.

Optimization of Fermentation Conditions for the Production of Legionaminic Acid in Recombinant Escherichia Coli

Wang, Ranjun January 2017 (has links)
Legionaminic acid (Leg5,7Ac2) is a nonulosonic acid similar to sialic acid (Neu5Ac), which can be found in the extracellular glycoconjugates of several bacterial pathogens. Due to the similarity in stereochemistry of the two compounds, legionaminic acid has great potential in the production of pharmaceutical drugs. A novel biosynthetic pathway to produce legionaminic acid was created to overcome the limitations of organic synthesis. This is the first study involving the scale-up of legionaminic acid production by high cell density fermentation processes. In this work, fed-batch cultivations of recombinant Escherichia coli BRL04 were carried out in shake flasks and 5-L bioreactors. The final process was optimized by determining the effects of different carbon sources, induction temperatures, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO) content, induction optical density and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) feed rate on the production of legionaminic acid. Overall, results showed that the titer, yield and productivity for legionaminic acid production achieved relatively high levels, which were 5.53 g/L, 73.29% and 0.092 g/(Lh), respectively. It is hoped that this study accelerates research into the production of legionaminic acid for therapeutic treatments as well as for further study in glycobiology.
