Algicidal bacteria offer an eco-friendly and promising approach for controlling harmful algae blooms (HABs). In this study, repeated batch fermentation of immobilized algicidal bacterium Vibrio brasiliensis H115 was preformed to enhance the productivity of the algicidal compounds. The highest algicidal efficiency of the fermentation products against Akashiwo sanguinea (100%) was achieved when the fermentation time was decreased from 24 to 14 h. The cell-free fermentation broth was then spray-dried and floating microcapsules were prepared from the dried powder. The optimum preparation conditions for floating microcapsules were: sodium alginate (SA), 3%; CaCO3: SA (mass ratio), 3:4; CaCl2, 3%; citric acid, 4%; ethylcellulose, 2%; crosslinking time, 30 min. Under the optimal conditions, the floating microcapsules displayed efficient A. sanguinea cell lysis ability and the algicidal efficiency increased from 10.62% (4 h) to 100% (24 h). These results suggest that the floating microcapsules could potentially be practically used for controlling the outbreaks of A. sanguinea.

Chitinolytic mold, such as Mucor circinelloidesis can be utilized to produce chitinase enzyme for shrimp shell’s chitin hydrolysis into N-acetylglucosamine (NAG). For that purpose, entrapment of chitinase on agar as a carrier could be an alternative way to improve NAG production. This study aimed to investigate the stability of immobilized semi-purified chitinase on agar for multiple cycles fermentation to produce NAG. In this study, 0.6 mL of semi-purified chitinase enzyme was immobilized into 3% of agar matrices and tested for four fermentation cycles to obtain highest NAG concentration and good enzyme activity. The results indicate that the immobilized chitinase could be used for 6 hours fermentation or three fermentation cycles. The NAG concentration produced after three cycle were 1042.22 ± 16.20 ppm. Besides, the immobilized enzyme was considerably stable up to the third cycles with activity value of about 4.74 U/mL.Keywords: agar; immobilized;NAG; repeated fermentation
