THE EFFECT OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN CONCENTRATION CONTROL ON CELL GROWTH AND ANTIBIOTIC RETAMYCIN PRODUCTION IN Streptomyces olindensis So20 FERMENTATIONS

چکیده
Cell growth and retamycin production in Streptomyces olindensis So20 were studied at different dissolved oxygen levels during fermentation. The profiles for cell growth and retamycin production in an experiment with dissolved oxygen control at 5% air saturation during production were similar to those in an experiment without dissolved oxygen control. However, despite slower cell growth, a twofold increase in the final retamycin concentration was achieved when dissolved oxygen was controlled at 100% during the growth phase, compared to a base experiment (no DO control). Therefore, the results revealed that retamycin production was dependent on dissolved oxygen concentration during the growth phase, even with sufficient oxygen. On the other hand, a large oxygen supply during the production phase did not contribute to an improvement in retamycin production.

Effect of single additive bivalent metal ions on the growth of Streptomyces clavuligerus and clavulanic acid production
Metal ions are the main impurities of water and media ingredients used in fermentation processes. In this research, the effect of Ca+2, Co+2, Cu+2, Fe+2, Mg+2, Mn+2 and Zn+2 as chloride and sulfate salts was studied on the clavulanic acid production and Streptomyces clavuligerus growth. All chloride salts had negative effect on clavulanic acid production and no clavulanic acid was produced in t...

Cell growth and lincomycin production were measured in batch cultures of Streptomyces lincolnensis in chemically defined media. In these fermentations the specific rate of antibiotic production was maximal during growth and always declined at the end of the growth phase. It was found that both phosphate and ammonium salts, while required for cell growth, had negative effects on antibiotic produ...

An actinomycete strain designated LL-31F508 was isolated from an intertidal sediment sample collected in Key West, Florida. Culture LL-31F508 was assigned to the Streptomyces genus based on the presence of LL-diaminopimelic acid (DAP) in the cell wall and observations of spiny spores using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Excellent antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus and Enterococc...

Factors affecting candicidin synthesis and mycelial growth of Streptomyces griseus IMRU 3570 were studied. Inorganic phosphate was found to inhibit candicidin synthesis but to stimulate mycelial growth. Zinc, iron, and magnesium ions stimulated candicidin synthesis at relatively high concentrations in a complex medium but not in a synthetic medium. No other factors studied, such as temperature,...
