Propionic acid production in glycerol/glucose co-fermentation by Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii.
Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii can ferment glucose and glycerol to propionic acid with acetic and succinic acids as two by-products. Propionic acid production from glucose was relatively fast (0.19 g/Lh) but gave low product yield (~0.39 g/g) and selectivity (P/A: ~2.6; P/S: ~4.8). In contrast, glycerol with a more reduced state gave a high propionic acid yield (~0.65 g/g) an...
متن کاملProperties of Alanine Dehydrogenase and Aspartase from Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii.
During lactate fermentation by Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii ATCC 9614, the only amino acid metabolized was aspartate. After lactate exhaustion, alanine was one of the two amino acids to be metabolized. For every 3 mol of alanine metabolized, 2 mol of propionate, 1 mol each of acetate and CO(2), and 3 mol of ammonia were formed. The specific activity of alanine dehydrogenase...
متن کاملLipase and Esterase Activities of Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. freudenreichii.
The lipase and esterase activities of eight strains of dairy Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. freudenreichii were studied. A lipase activity was detected on whole cells and in the culture supernatant. The highest activity was expressed at 45 degrees C and pH 6.8. An esterase activity was also detected in the culture medium. The electrophoresis of the intracellular fractions of the cells ...
متن کاملPropionate acts as earboxylic group aeeeptor in aspartate fermentation by Propionibacterium freudenreichii
Cells of Propionibacterium freudenreichii ssp. shermanii and ssp. freudenreichii did not show significant growth or product formation in a mineral medium with 10 mM aspartate or 10 mM fumarate, vitamins, and a small amount (0.05% w/v) of yeast extract. In the presence of added propionate, growth with aspartate or fumarate was possible, and depended strictly on the amount of propionate provided,...
متن کاملEffects of orally administered viable Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii JS on mouse lymphocyte proliferation.
Immunomodulation by probiotics is a subject of growing interest, but the knowledge of dose response and time profile relationships is minimal. In this study we examined the effects of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii JS (PJS) on the proliferative activity of murine lymphocytes ex vivo. Dose dependency was assessed by treating animals peroral...
