Continuous cultivation of photosynthetic bacteria for fatty acids production.
In the present work, we introduced a novel approach for microbial fatty acids (FA) production. Photosynthetic bacteria, Rhodobacter sphaeroides KD131, were cultivated in a continuous-flow, stirred-tank reactor (CFSTR) at various substrate (lactate) concentrations. At hydraulic retention time (HRT) 4d, cell concentration continuously increased from 0.97 g dcw/L to 2.05 g dcw/L as lactate concent...
متن کاملFatty Acids Analysis of Photosynthetic Sulfur Bacteria by Gas Chromatography
The fatty acid profile of bacteria has been extensively studied for taxonomic classification purposes, as bacteria in general contain particular and rare fatty acids, compared with animal and plant tissues (Purcaro et al., 2010). Lipids and fatty acid composition are quite useful for characterization of different species and groups of photosynthetic bacteria. Fatty acids can be identified by ga...
متن کاملProduction of conjugated fatty acids by lactic acid bacteria.
Conjugated fatty acids have attracted much attention as a novel type of biologically beneficial functional lipid. Some isomers of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) reduce carcinogenesis, atherosclerosis, and body fat. Considering the use of CLA for medicinal and nutraceutical purposes, a safe isomer-selective process is required. The introduction of biological reactions for CLA production could be...
متن کاملContinuous cultivation of photosynthetic microorganisms: Approaches, applications and future trends.
The possibility of using photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria and microalgae, for converting light and carbon dioxide into valuable biochemical products has raised the need for new cost-efficient processes ensuring a constant product quality. Food, feed, biofuels, cosmetics and pharmaceutics are among the sectors that can profit from the application of photosynthetic microorgani...
متن کاملSemi-Continuous Cultivation of Photosynthetic Cells in a Flat Plate Photobioreactor
From an engineering point of view, the effect of light intensity distribution on the stability of growth rate should be taken into account in designing effective photobioreactors and sustaining stable growth rates. In the experiments described here, in order to keep operational parameters at an almost constant level, a semi-continuous culture method was developed for cultivation of photosynthet...
