Control of agitation rate and aeration for enhanced polygalacturonase production in submerged fermentation by Aspergillus sojae using agro-industrial wastes
BACKGROUND: The koji mold Aspergillus sojae, an industrially important microorganism, can produce high levels of pectinases utilizing agro-industrial wastes. This study introduces apricot and peach pomace, two agro-industrial wastes barely considered as raw material for the generation of value-added products, and focuses on its utilization together with orange peel for polygalacturonase production in submerged cultures using A. sojae. RESULTS: A Doehlert response surface methodology design conducted in shake flasks and applied individually with these three by-products led to 60–80 U mL−1 polygalacturonase activity. In bioreactor studies performed with a mixture of apricot pomace and orange peel, by fixing stirrer speed to 600 rpm and cascading airflow to the dissolved oxygen tension up to 1.7 vvm, oxygen limitation problems were overcome and polygalacturonase activity values of 380 U mL−1 were achieved. CONCLUSION: A simple and efficient strategy to minimize oxygen limitation with the lowest possible shear stress is provided for stirred-tank bioreactors working with highly viscous broths, so as to ultimately enhance microbial enzyme production. The polygalacturonase activity yields obtained in our study are among the highest reported in the literature.Fil: Fratebianchi de la Parra, Dante.

Evaluation of agro-industrial wastes, their state and mixing ratio for maximum polygalacturonase and biomass production in submerged fermentation
The potential of important agro-industrial wastes, apple pomace (AP) and orange peel (OP) as C sources, was investigated in the maximization of polygalacturonase (PG), an industrially significant enzyme, using an industrially important microorganism Aspergillus sojae. Factors such as various hydrolysis forms of the C sources (hydrolysed-AP, non-hydrolysed-AP, hydrolysed-AP + OP, non-hydrolysed-AP + OP) and N sources (ammonium sulphate and urea), and incubation time (4, 6, and 8 days) were screened. It was observed that maximum PG activity was achieved at a combination of non-hydrolysed-AP + OP and ammonium sulphate with eight days of incubation. For the pre-optimization study, ammonium sulphate concentration and the mixing ratios of AP + OP at different total C concentrations (9, 15, 21 g l−1) were evaluated. The optimum conditions for the maximum PG production (144.96 U ml−1) was found as 21 g l−1 total carbohydrate concentration totally coming from OP at 15 g l−1 ammonium sulphate concentration. On the other hand, 3:1 mixing ratio of OP + AP at 11.50 g l−1 ammonium sulphate concentration also resulted in a considerable PG activity (115.73 U ml−1). These results demonstrated that AP can be evaluated as an additional C source to OP for PG production, which in turn both can be alternative solutions for the elimination of the waste accumulation in the food industry with economical returns.Fil: Göğüş, Nihan.

mutant using wheat bran, an agro‐industrial waste, via solid‐state fermentation
BACKGROUND: Polygalacturonases (PGs) are valuable enzymes of the food industry; therefore it is of great importance to discover new and GRAS PG-producing microbial strains. In this study, PG enzyme produced from a high PG activity producer mutant Aspergillus sojae using wheat bran at the flask scale under pre-optimized conditions of solid-state fermentation (SSF) was biochemically characterized. RESULTS: The crude PG enzyme showed optimum activity in the pH range 4.0–5.0 and was stable in the pH range 3.0–7.0. The optimum temperature for the PG was 40 °C and it retained 99% of its activity at 50 °C. The mutant A. sojae PG could preserve more than 50% of its stability between 25 and 50 °C, both for 30 and 60 min, and was found to be stable in the presence of most of the tested compounds and metal ions. The inactivation energy (Ed) was determined as 125.3 kJ mol−1. The enthalpy (ΔH*), free energy (ΔG*) and entropy (ΔS*) of inactivation were found to be stable with increasing temperature. CONCLUSION: The mutant A. sojae PG could be suitable for the clarification (depectinization) of orange and grape juices and wine. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry
Partial purification of a polygalacturonase from a new<i>Aspergillus sojae</i>mutant and its application in grape mash maceration
The use of polygalacturonase (PG) preparations in winemaking promotes the release of phenolic compounds. A PG from a new source, Aspergillus sojae mutant, was semi-purified and tested for grape mash maceration. Crude extract (CE), a commercial pectinase, and two high PG activity semi-purified preparations, F-I and F-II,F- were applied for maceration at PG activity of 3.5Ug(-1) of grape for 46h. Enzyme-assisted maceration significantly (P < 0.05) increased the total phenolic content from 255.8 to 916.3 +/- 5.2, 5732.9 +/- 9.9, 563.4 +/- 6.7 and 620.6 +/- 18.4mgL(-1) for CE, commercial pectinase, F-I and F-II, respectively. The content of individual phenolics such as gallic, protocatechuic, chlorogenic and p-coumaric acids was improved. Principal component and hierarchical clustering analyses suggested that CE has a better performance upon the release of phenols. Semi-purified preparations acted similar to commercial pectinase. These findings open an opportunity for the potential use of PG from the mutant strain as an alternative macerating enzyme

Effect of various process parameters on morphology, rheology, and polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae in a batch bioreactor
The effects of pH, agitation speed, and dissolved oxygen tension (DOT), significant in common fungal fermentations, on the production of polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme and their relation to morphology and broth rheology were investigated using Aspergillus sojae in a batch bioreactor. All three factors were effective on the response parameters under study. An uncontrolled pH increased biomass and PG activity by 27% and 38%, respectively, compared to controlled pH (pH 6) with an average pellet size of 1.69 ± 0.48 mm. pH did not significantly affect the broth rheology but created an impact on the pellet morphology. Similarly, at constant agitation speed the maximum biomass obtained at 500 rpm and at 30 h was 3.27 and 3.67 times more than at 200 and 350 rpm, respectively, with an average pellet size of 1.08 ± 0.42 mm. The maximum enzyme productivity of 0.149 U mL-1 h-1 was obtained at 200 rpm with an average pellet size of 0.71 ± 0.35 mm. Non-Newtonian and pseudoplastic broth rheology was observed at 500 rpm agitation speed, broth rheology exhibited dilatant behavior at the lower agitation rate (200 rpm), and at the medium agitation speed (350 rpm) the broth was close to Newtonian. Furthermore, a DOT range of 30-50% was essential for maximum biomass formation, whereas only 10% DOT was required for maximum PG synthesis. Non-Newtonian shear thickening behavior (n > 1.0) was depicted at DOT levels of 10% and 30%, whereas non-Newtonian shear thinning behavior (n < 1.0) was dominant at 50% DOT. The overall fermentation duration (50-70 h) was considerably shorter compared to common fungal fermentations, revealing the economic feasibility of this particular process. As a result this study not only introduced a new strain with a potential of producing a highly commercially significant enzyme but also provided certain parameters significant in the design and mathematical modeling of fungal bioprocesses.İYTE 2004,04 and İYTE 2004,0
Biochemical and thermal properties of β-galactosidase enzymes produced by artisanal yoghurt cultures
β-Galactosidases, produced by pure and mixed cultures of Streptococcus thermophilus 95/2 (St 95/2) and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus 77 (Lb 77) isolated from the Toros mountain region of Turkey, were characterised with respect to their biochemical and thermal properties. Optimum pH and temperature for maximum activity were determined and these enzymes were stable in the pH range 7-9 and in the temperature range 20-37 °C, retaining 80-90% of their initial activities. The inactivation energies of β-galactosidase from Lb 77, St 95/2 and mixed culture (Lb 77 and St 95/2) were 51.3, 44.0 and 48.3 kcal mol-1, respectively. Moreover, thermodynamic (ΔG, ΔS, ΔH) and kinetic constants (Km and Vmax) were determined and effects of metal ions were investigated. As a result, these enzymes could be considered as potential candidates for lactose hydrolysis of milk and milk products. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
