Selection and characterization of Clostridium bifermentans strains from natural environment capable of producing 1,3-propanediol under microaerophilic conditions

چکیده
In this work, we aimed to select from natural environment non-pathogenic strains of Clostridium spp. capable of producing 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD). As a result we isolated 2256 of Clostridium spp., including 10 strains from the genus Clostridium bifermentans. It occurred that all isolates of this species were able to synthesis 1,3-PD on the level of ca. 10 g/L. Additionally, they synthetized metabolites in microaerophilic conditions, which is very profitable from the industrial point of view. We characterized morphological and physiological properties of all isolated strains of C. bifermentans. These tests demonstrated significant dissimilarity among all isolates of C. bifermentans species.

Hypothetical glycerol pathways of newly isolated strains capable of 1,3-propanediol production.
Study presented here demonstrates the ability of three newly isolated strains, obtained from environmental probes (manure, bottom sediment, and food waste) and identified as Clostridium bifermentans, Clostridium butyricum, and Hafnia alvei, to synthesize 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD), organic acids (such as lactic, acetic, fumaric, succinic, and butyric acids), and ethanol from glycerol. The product...

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 کاملScreening of environmental samples for bacteria producing 1,3-propanediol from glycerol.
Twenty nine environmental samples were screened for the presence of anaerobic microorganisms fermenting glycerol with 1,3-propanediol as a final product. Seven samples were then selected for the next step of our research and eight bacteria strains were cultured anaerobically. Seven of them produced 1,3-propanediol with a yield of 0.47-0.58. Six of the the isolated microorganisms were then class...

1,3-propanediol is used as a monomer in the production of some polymers e.g. polytrimethylene terephthalate used in the production of carpets and textile fibers and in the thermoplastics engineering. However, the traditional chemical synthesis is expensive, generates some toxic intermediates and requires a reduction step under high hydrogen pressure. Biological production of 1,3-propanediol cou...
متن کاملBiotechnological production of 1,3-propanediol from crude glycerol
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PD) is one of the important products used in chemical industry, in particular for polyesters production (e.g. polyethers and polyurethanes). Using crude glycerol for producing 1,3-PD is a good solution from the economical as well as ecological point of view. Glycerol produced by cleavage of natural fats can be microbially converted to 1.3-propanediol by, among others, Citro...
