Isolation and characterization of thermotolerant fungi producing lignoceric acid from glycerol.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, thermotolerant fungal strains which can grow on glycerol as the sole carbon source were isolated from soil samples. Morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses of ten isolated strains showed that all strains belong to Aspergillus fumigatus. Analysis of their cellular fatty acid composition revealed that all the strains accumulated lignoceric acid (C24:0), suggesting that the isolated strains can be used to produce this high-value long-chain fatty acid from glycerol.

Isolation and partial characterization of a new strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae capable of high 1,3 propanediol production from glycerol
Glycerol is a promising feedstock for microbial cultivation and production of 1,3 propanediol (1,3 PDO). Here we report a newly isolated bacterial strain BA11 from soil, capable of fermenting glycerol to 1,3 PDO, and has been identified to be a strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Strain BA11 was fast growing showing peak 1,3 PDO production in 6 h of cultivation with productivity of 1.2 g/...
متن کاملIsolation, Screening and Characterization of Hyaluronidase Producing Bacteria
Hyaluronidase has a panoramic use in biotechnology processes and therapy due to its therapeutic, pathophysiological, physiological and biological importance. Since much of the preparations of hyaluronidases are from animal source (bovine and ovine testicular sources) with limited sources of microbial origin, that prompted the authors to screen and isolate a new promising bacterial strain ...
متن کاملIsolation of lipase producing bacteria from olive extract to improve lipase production using a submerge fermentation technique
The tremendous mounting interest in lipase production is pertinent to the biotechnological applications that these enzymes offer. Lipase, belonging to the hydrolyze enzymes, is involved in copious biological functions including: hydrolysis insoluble triacylglycerol to mono and diacylglycerols and glycerol. Submerge fermentation technique was applied for the efficient production of this. Briefly...
