Abstract:In the fermentation process,it is difficult to implement a good online control of residual sugar concentration with delayed measurements. Due to the inherit characteristics of biomass growth,the field operator can achieve an effective estimation on the residual sugar concentration according to operating experience or knowledge. However,it is ineffective in the large fluctuation of the residual sugar concentration. Based on the operating experience or knowledge,this paper introduces a feedback correction idea to compensate the experience estimation algorithm. Moreover,considering the inaccuracy model of the residual sugar concentration,this paper proposes a fuzzy predictive estimation algorithm,a fuzzy predictive estimation algorithm with compensation combining fuzzy intelligent technology. Afterwards,the residual sugar concentration is forecast by these two predictive estimation algorithms. The accuracy and effectiveness of the fuzzy model and compensation algorithm are verified by a real experiment.

Abstract:Glucaric acid is a kind of organic acid with important biological values. In order to achieve high-yield production of glucaric acid,a glucaric acid synthetic pathway was constructed in Pichia pastoris by co-expression of the mouse MIOX gene and the udh gene from Pseudomonas putida KT2440,which led to accumulation of glucaric acid. By fermentation optimization in shake flasks,the results showed the optimum carbon source was glucose(60 g/L was the best initial concentration),the optimum initial pH was 5.5,the optimum seed time was 24 h,and the optimum inoculation amount was 25%. The glucaric acid production was increased from (566.36±16.98) mg/L to (967.60±3.90) mg/L after optimization. According to the optimized conditions,the production of glucaric acid was substantially increased to (2.60±0.04) g/L in a 3 L fermentor.

Abstract:Atmospheric and room temperature plasma(ARTP) was used to mutagenize Alternaria alternate which is a naringinase-producing strain. The naringinase activity of the mutagenized stain SK37.002 reached 327.32 U/mL,which was 208% higher than that of original strain.The optimum carbon sources for naringinase-producing is sucrose. The most suitable inducer is naringin and nitrogen sources being NaNO3. According to Plackett-Burman design,NaNO3,CaCl2 and K2HPO4 were screened out of 8 factors as main affecting variables of naringinase production. Then steepest ascent method was used to approach themaximum response regions and it was followed by Box-Behnken and response surface analysis. As a result,the optimum medium formula(g/L) determined was composed of naringin 1,sucrose 5,NaNO3 5,K2HPO4 0.8,CaCl2 0.7,KCl 0.5,MgCl2 0.5. The resulting naringinase activity in fermentation broth reached up to 624.73±30.33 U/mL and was 90% higher than before which was consistent with the predicted maximum value.

Abstract:In order to investigate the antimicrobial mechanism of Ginkgo biloba leaf extracts (GBLE) against specific spoilage bacteria in aquatic products,minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of GBLE against Saprophytic staphylococcus was measured by method of broth dilution combined with plate counting in this paper. The impact of GBLE on the growth of bacteria,the permeability of cell membrane and cell wall were also investigated by the methods,such as growth curve,content of alkaline phosphatase (AKP),electrical conductivity and content of protein. The structure of the Saprophytic staphylococcus cells was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the MIC was 100 mg/mL. The inhibitory rates of MIC and 2MIC concentration of GBLE were 60.58% and 81.34% respectively. The growth of bacteria was inhibited and the permeability of cell membrane increased significantly. The result of observation with SEM revealed that the structure of Saprophytic staphylococcus cells were destroyed and the bacteria began to be adhesive with each other. The inhibition effect of GBLE against Saprophytic staphylococcus was related with the damage of cell membrane and cell wall.

Abstract:The effect of lipase pretreatment on kitchen grease hydrolysis and its anaerobic digestion performance were studied with batch experiments. Firstly,the influence of enzyme dosage,ratio of water to oil,pH and temperature on the kitchen grease hydrolysis were investigated. Then,the optimized pretreatment condition was determined by response surface analysis. Finally,anaerobic fermentation of the kitchen wastewater with grease were carried out to analyze the impact of lipase pretreatment on the kitche grease digestion. Results showed that the optimized hydrolysis conditions were determined as enzyme dosage 1.15%,ratio of water to oil 0.9,pH 8.0,temperature 42.5 ℃. Under these conditions,the hydrolysis rate was predicted at 86.6% and the repeated experimental result was (88.1±2.2)%,which showed that the response surface model could predict the influence of four factors on the hydrolysis reaction well. For the results from anaerobic fermentation,the cumulative methane yield of the enzyme pretreated kitchen wastewater with grease was the highest with the value of 572.12 mL/g·COD,showed 55.10% and 14.56% increase than the wastewater with grease group(499.47 mL/g·COD) and the actual kitchen wastewater group(368.86 mL/g·COD) respectively. This indicated that grease had high methane production potential,and lipase pretreatment could obviously improve the methanogenesis efficiency. Further investigation demonstrated that enzyme pretreatment had little effect on pH variation,which showed the significant increase in volatile fatty acids(VFAs) and dehydrogenase activity during the early stage of anaerobic digestion. This manifested that pre-hydrolysis could promote substrate supply for the methane production and improve the methane yield efficiency.

Abstract:Overexpression of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 2-epimerase(AGE),as a critical enzyme for N-acetyl-D-neuraminic acid(Neu5Ac) synthesis ,is an efficient strategy for improvement of Neu5Ac production. Based on the information about the slr1975 gene encoding Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 AGE and the codon bias of Escherichia coli,slr1975-co was synthesized and cloned into the pET28a expression vector. The recombinant plasmid pET28-slr was purified,and then transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3) strain. The recombinant enzyme was overexpressed by induction of IPTG and SDS-PAGE showed that the molecular mass of the recombinant AGE protein is about 43 kDa,which was in agreement with their theoretical value. The recombinant enzyme was characterized and the reuslts showed that the optimal temperature is 42 ℃ and the optimal reaction pH was 6.0. Kinetic studies indicated that the Km for N-acetyl-D-glucosamine(GlcNAc) and N-acetyl-D-mannosamine(ManNAc) was 39.0 mmol/L and 46.5 mmol/L,respectively. Moreover,Neu5Ac production was evaluated by the recombinant enzmye AGE and the results demonstrated that recombinant enzmye AGE coupled with Neu5Ac aldolase(NanA) could catalyze N-acetyl-D-glucosamine to produce Neu5Ac effectively. In summary,codon-optimization and overexpression of AGE provide paved a way for efficient Neu5Ac production by whole-cell catalysis.
