Degradation performances of Klebsiella spp. for Cyclohexane was studied by using the method of single factor in the paper. The influences of temperature, pH, initial concentration of Cyclohexane, oxygen supply, culture time etc. were studied and the optimum conditions were determined. The results show that the activated strains of Klebsiella spp. are inoculated in the liquid culture medium of 100 ml which contained cyclohexane, the initial concentration of cyclohexane is 2490 mg/L, the culture temperature is at 28°C, pH is 6, the number of Klebsiella spp. is about 9×105ml-1in the liquid culture medium, the speed of rotary shaker is 120 r/min, and the degradation rate of Cyclohexane reaches 70.1% in 96 hr. The results could provide the theoretical basis in the field of pollution treatment of petroleum hydrocarbons.

AbstractObjective: Glucoamylase is a hydrolyzing enzyme with several industrial applications. Glucoamylase was produced via a solid state fermentation by three naturally occurring zygomycetes fungi of Mucor indicus, Mucor hiemalis, and Rhizopus oryzae on wheat bran.Methods: The effects of cultivation temperature, medium moisture content, and cultivation time on the enzyme production were investigated. Experiments were designed with an orthogonal central composite design on the three variables using response surface methodology (RSM).Results: For glucoamylase production, the optimum temperature and medium moisture content for the three fungi were 26.6°C and 71.8%, respectively. The optimum cultivation time for M. hiemalis and R. oryzae was 33.1 h, while it was 66.8 h for M. indicus. At optimum conditions, glucoamylase production by M. indicus, M. hiemalis, and R. oryzae was respectively 255.3, 272.3, and 1545.3 U per g dry substrate.Conclusion: R. oryzae is a suitable candidate for industrial production of glucoamylase.

Effects of inoculation quantity, culture temperature and time on glucoamylase activity and the optimum conditions of koji-making of Aspergillus oryzae was studied by using single factor and response surface experiment. The results show that 3 factors can significantly impact on glucoamylase activity of koji. The best process condition of koji-making obtained by using the "Design-Expert" software is: culture temperature 38.70 °C, inoculation quantity 0.85 , and culture time 50.47 h.

Solid-state fermentation was carried out for production of gibberellin via the addition of enzymatic hydrolysate from steam-exploded corn stalks during the culture period. The enzymatic hydrolysate from the steam-exploded corn stalks was added to the culture medium during the solid-state fermentation period, which improved gibberellin production. When the enzymatic hydrolysate was added into the 400 mL/kg dry basis substrate in the solid-state fermentation after 60 h, the temperature was 30 °C, the pH was 7.00, the mass ratio of solid to liquid was 1:1.1, and the fermentation period was 168 h. This led to the largest gibberellin yield (9.48 g/kg dry basis), and when compared with pre-optimization, the gibberellin yield increased by 135%. The optimum conditions to maximize the biomass for the fermentation process were obtained; the temperature was 32 °C for a gibberellin yield of 9.20 g/kg dry basis, the pH was 6.00 and the mass ratio of solid to liquid was 1:1.1 for a gibberellin yield of 9.48 g/kg dry basis, and the fermentation period was 96 h for a gibberellin yield of 6.94 g/kg dry basis. Therefore, a new alternative way for gibberellin production via solid-state fermentation has been demonstrated.

ABSTRACT: Prickly palm cactus husk was used as a solid-state fermentation support substrate for the production of cellulolytic enzymes using Aspergillus niger and Rhizopus sp. A Box-Behnken design was used to evaluate the effects of water activity, fermentation time and temperature on endoglucanase and total cellulase production. Response Surface Methodology showed that optimum conditions for endoglucanase production were achieved at after 70.35 h of fermentation at 29.56°C and a water activity of 0.875 for Aspergillus niger and after 68.12 h at 30.41°C for Rhizopus sp. Optimum conditions for total cellulase production were achieved after 74.27 h of fermentation at 31.22°C for Aspergillus niger and after 72.48 h and 27.86°C for Rhizopus sp. Water activity had a significant effect on Aspergillus niger endoglucanase production only. In industrial applications, enzymatic characterization is important for optimizing variables such as temperature and pH. In this study we showed that endoglucanase and total cellulase had a high level of thermostability and pH stability in all the enzymatic extracts. Enzymatic deactivation kinetic experiments indicated that the enzymes remained active after the freezing of the crude extract. Based on the results, bioconversion of cactus is an excellent alternative for the production of thermostable enzymes.

Cow dung and agroresidues were used as the substrates for the production of alkaline proteases by Pseudomonas putida strain AT in solid-state fermentation. Among the various substrates evaluated, cow dung supported maximum (1351±217 U/g) protease production. The optimum conditions for the production of alkaline proteases were a fermentation period of 48 h, 120% (v/w) moisture, pH 9, and the addition of 6% (v/w) inoculum, 1.5% (w/w) trehalose, and 2.0% (w/w) yeast extract to the cow dung substrate. The enzyme was active over a range of temperatures (50–70°C) and pHs (8–10), with maximum activity at 60°C and pH 9. These enzymes showed stability towards surfactants, detergents, and solvent and digested various natural proteins.
