Studies on the Influence of Various Factors on Lipase Production Using Pseudomonas Cepacia

چکیده
Food Processing industry is always expecting economic and green technologies for the fat and oil modification. Microbial lipases are of immense importance and have gained special industrial attention in almost all industries . A new strain of lipolytic Pseudomonas cepacia was isolated from the oil industrial waste soil on a selective medium that contained olive oil as the only source of carbon and energy. The isolated strain was cultivated for lipase production in shake flasks at 30±1C and the effect of various fermentation conditions were studied. The maximum extracellular lipase activity of 15.15 U/ml and 15.30 U/ml were noticed for 30 g/l sucrose and 25 mg/l yeast extract respectively. The optimal cultural temperature was 40C and pH 6.0. Metal iron (Fe) also enhanced the lipase yield as supplementary.

Characterization of Pseudomonas cepacia isolates from patients with cystic fibrosis.
Pseudomonas cepacia infections which follow a fulminant course and which include septicemia are being reported with increasing frequency from cystic fibrosis patients. Forty-eight P. cepacia isolates from cystic fibrosis patients were screened for production of potential virulence factors. A majority of strains tested produced protease and lipase. Eleven strains harbored plasmids of approximate...

The influence of growth rate and oxygen availability on siderophore, protease, and lipase production in Burkholderia cepacia was assessed for cells grown in a chemostat under iron limitation. Whereas siderophore and protease production increased with growth rate and oxygen yet decreased under oxygen depletion, lipase production demonstrated the opposite trend.

Burkholderia cepacia has emerged as an important pathogen in patients with cystic fibrosis. Many gram-negative pathogens regulate the production of extracellular virulence factors by a cell density-dependent mechanism termed quorum sensing, which involves production of diffusible N-acylated homoserine lactone signal molecules, called autoinducers. Transposon insertion mutants of B. cepacia K56-...

Lipases have many applications in biotechnology, thanks to their ability of acylglycerides hydrolysis. They alsp possess the unique feature of acting at the lipid-water interface, which distinguishes them from esterases. Commercially useful lipases are produced by microorganisms with the extracellular lipase being produced by many bacteria including Pseudomonas. The greatest production of lipas...
