Book Investigation of The Effects of Dissolved Oxygen Concentration  Aeration And Agitation on The Morphology And Rheology In Submerged Fungal Fermentation

Download or read book Investigation of The Effects of Dissolved Oxygen Concentration Aeration And Agitation on The Morphology And Rheology In Submerged Fungal Fermentation written by Şelale Öncü and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of pH, agitation speed, dissolved oxygen tension (DOT) and aeration, significant in common fungal fermentations, on the production of polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme and their relation to morphology and broth rheology were investigated in a batch bioreactor using Aspergillus sojae which has no available literature report on the pectinase production. All four factors were effective on the response parameters under study. An uncontrolled pH increased biomass and PG activity by 27% and 38%, respectively compared to controlled pH (pH 6). pH did not significantly affect the broth rheology but created an impact on the pellet morphology. Similarly, the maximum biomass obtained at 500 rpm and at 30h was 3.27 and 3.67 times more than at 200 and 350 rpm, respectively. The maximum enzyme productivity of 0.149 U ml-1 h-1 was obtained at 200 rpm. Non . Newtonian and pseudoplastic broth rheology was observed at 500 rpm agitation speed. Furthermore, a DOT range of 30-50% was essential for maximum biomass formation, whereas only 10% DOT was required for maximum PG synthesis. Non . Newtonian shear thickening behavior (n>1.0) was depicted at DOT levels of 10% and 30%, whereas, non-Newtonian shear thinning behavior (n

Book Production of labyrinthopeptin A1 with Actinomadura namibiensis

Download or read book Production of labyrinthopeptin A1 with Actinomadura namibiensis written by Sebastian Tesche and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The filamentous actinomycete Actinomadura namibiensis is the only known producer of labyrinthopeptins, a class of ribosomally synthesized and posttranslationally modified peptides (RiPPs) displaying highly attractive bioactive properties. In order to increase the labyrinthopeptin A1 productivity in shaking flask cultivations of A. namibiensis, a new cultivation method called salt-enhanced cultivation was used. Compared to the unsupplemented control, labyrinthopeptin A1 productivity was enhanced the most by addition of 50 mM (NH4)2SO4, reaching a 7-fold higher yield of 325 mg L-1 within 10 cultivation days. Salt-enhanced cultivation affected growth and product formation mechanisms, cell morphology characteristics and rheological characteristics of cultivation broth. An image analysis method was developed to quantify both the macro-morphology (pellet size and shape) and the micro-morphology (hyphal network structure) of the heterogeneous filamentous biomass in detail. Productivity-related morphological parameters were in particular the size and circularity of pellets and the degree of hyphal interweaving (hyphal network spacing). It was shown that the time-dependent change in morphology linked to the rheological properties of the cultivation broth. The results presented in this work provide new insights into the cultivation aspects of A. namibiensis and illustrate the challenges on the way to a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationship between productivity, morphology and rheology in filamentous cultivations.

Book Plant Biotechnology Handbook

Download or read book Plant Biotechnology Handbook written by NIIR Board and published by NIIR PROJECT CONSULTANCY SERVICES. This book was released on 2004-04-15 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant biotechnology is a precise process in which scientific techniques are used to develop molecular and cellular based technologies to improve plant productivity, quality and health; to improve the quality of plant products; or to prevent, reduce or eliminate constraints to plant productivity caused by diseases, pest organisms and environmental stresses. It can be defined as human intervention on plant material by means of technological instruments in order to produce permanent effects, and includes genetic engineering and gene manipulation to obtain transgenic plants. Plant genetic engineering is used to produce new inheritable combinations by introducing external DNA to plant material in an unnatural way. The results are genetically modified plants (GMPs) or transgenic plants. The key instrument used in plant biotechnology is the plant tissue culture (PTC) technique which refers to the in vitro culture of protoplasts, cells, tissues and organs. Plant biotechnology in use today relies on advanced technology, which allows plant breeders to make precise genetic changes to impart beneficial traits to plants. The application of biotechnology in agriculture has resulted in benefits to farmers, producers and consumers. Plant biotechnology has helped make both insect pest control and weed management safer and easier while safeguarding plants against disease. The worldwide demand for food, feed and modern textile fibers can only be met in the future with the help of plant biotechnology. It has the potential to open up whole new business areas that will totally redefine the current market scope and perception. This book majorly deals with the organisms of biotechnology, herbicide resistant plants, transgenic plants with improved storage proteins, engineering for preservation of fruits, enhancing the photosynthetic efficiency, basic requirements for nitrogen fixation, animal and plant cell cultures , insecticides, cellular characteristics which influence the choice of cell , the growth of animal and plant cells immobilized within a confining matrix, virus free clones through plant tissue culture , microbial metabolism of carbon dioxide , organisms involved in the conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen utilization by aerobic hydrogen oxidizing bacteria, overproduction of microbial metabolites, regulation of metabolite synthesis etc. The book contains measurement of plant cell growth, plant tissue culture, initiation of embryo genesis in suspension culture, micro propagation in plants, isolation of plant DNA and many more.
