Significant production of vanillin and in vitro amplification of ech gene in local bacterial isolates

Braz. j. biol; 83 (), 2023
Abstract Vanillin is the major component which is responsible for flavor and aroma of vanilla extract and is produced by 3 ways: natural extraction from vanilla plant, chemical synthesis and from microbial transformation. Current research was aimed to study bacterial production of vanillin from native na...

Optimization of production of xylanases with low cellulases in Fusarium solani by means of a solid state fermentation using statistical experimental design

Rev. argent. microbiol; 52 (4), 2020
Resumen La demanda de xilanasas fúngicas en los procesos biotecnológicos industriales muestra un claro aumento en todo el mundo, por lo que hay un interés en ajustar las condiciones de producción de xilanasas microbianas. En este estudio se optimizó la capacidad del hongo Fusarium solani para produc...

Development and storage studies of high density macrocapsules containing Lactobacillus spp. strains as nutritional supplement in young calves

Rev. argent. microbiol; 50 (4), 2018
The aim of this study was to evaluate different production methodologies of probiotic macrocapsules with high bacterial densities destined to lactating calves. Three types of capsules containing Lactobacillus casei DSPV318T and Lactobacillus plantarum DSPV354T were prepared from an overnight culture in w...

Exopolysaccharide production from Bacillus velezensis KY471306 using statistical experimental design

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (3), 2018
Abstract Exopolysaccharide (EPS) biopolymers produced by microorganisms play a crucial role in the environment such as health and bio-nanotechnology sectors, gelling agents in food and cosmetic industries in addition to bio-flocculants in the environmental sector as they are degradable, nontoxic. This st...

Bacterial cellulose to reinforce urethrovesical anastomosis. A translational study

Acta cir. bras; 33 (8), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of the cellulosic exopolysaccharide membrane (CEM) as a urethral reinforcement for urethrovesical anastomosis. Methods: Twenty eight rabbits were submitted to urethrovesical anastomosis with or without CEM reinforcement. The animals were divided into 4 groups:...

First report of the production of a potent biosurfactant with α, β-trehalose by Fusarium fujikuroi under optimized conditions of submerged fermentation

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract Biosurfactants have many advantages over synthetic surfactants but have higher production costs. Identifying microorganisms with high production capacities for these molecules and optimizing their growth conditions can reduce cost. The present work aimed to isolate and identify a fungus with hig...

Carbon metabolism influenced for promoters and temperature used in the heterologous protein production using Pichia pastoris yeast

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract Nowadays, it is necessary to search for different high-scale production strategies to produce recombinant proteins of economic interest. Only a few microorganisms are industrially relevant for recombinant protein production: methylotrophic yeasts are known to use methanol efficiently as the sole...

Cost-effective production of bacterial cellulose using acidic food industry by-products

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract To reduce the cost of obtaining bacterial cellulose, acidic by-products of the alcohol and dairy industries were used without any pretreatment or addition of other nitrogen sources. Studies have shown that the greatest accumulation of bacterial cellulose (6.19 g/L) occurs on wheat thin stillage ...

Ethanol production from sweet sorghum by Saccharomyces cerevisiae DBKKUY-53 immobilized on alginate-loofah matrices

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract Ethanol production from sweet sorghum juice (SSJ) using the thermotolerant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain DBKKUY-53 immobilized in an alginate-loofah matrix (ALM) was successfully developed. As found in this study, an ALM with dimensions of 20 × 20 × 5 mm3 is effective for cell immobilization...

Inhibitor tolerance of a recombinant flocculating industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain during glucose and xylose co-fermentation

Braz. j. microbiol; 48 (4), 2017
ABSTRACT Lignocellulose-derived inhibitors have negative effects on the ethanol fermentation capacity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this study, the effects of eight typical inhibitors, including weak acids, furans, and phenols, on glucose and xylose co-fermentation of the recombinant xylose-fermenting ...
