[PMID: 39125202 PMCID: PMC11314993 DOI: 10.3390/polym16152177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2024] [Revised: 07/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
This study explores the synthesis and performance of novel copolyesters containing 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) as a biobased secondary diol. This presents an opportunity for improving their thermal properties and reducing crystallinity, while also being more sustainable. It is, however, a challenge to synthesize copolyesters of sufficient molecular weight that also have high 2,3-BDO content, due to the reduced reactivity of secondary diols compared to primary diols. Terephthalate-based polyesters were synthesized in combination with different ratios of 2,3-BDO and ethylene glycol (EG). With a 2,3-BDO to EG ratio of 28:72, an Mn of 31.5 kDa was reached with a Tg of 88 °C. The Mn dropped with increasing 2,3-BDO content to 18.1 kDa for a 2,3-BDO to EG ratio of 78:22 (Tg = 104 °C) and further to 9.8 kDa (Tg = 104 °C) for the homopolyester of 2,3-BDO and terephthalate. The water and oxygen permeability both increased significantly with increasing 2,3-BDO content and even the lowest content of 2,3-BDO (28% of total diol) performed significantly worse than PET. The incorporation of 2,3-BDO had little effect on the tensile properties of the polyesters, which were similar to PET. The results suggest that 2,3-BDO can be potentially applied for polyesters requiring higher Tg and lower crystallinity than existing materials (mainly PET).

Abstract
Recent decarbonization efforts have led to interests in producing more bio-based chemicals. One attractive compound produced biochemically is the platform chemical known as 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO). In this work a mild alkaline pretreatment using sodium carbonate was performed on corn stover (CS) and switchgrass (SG) to generate hydrolysates for fermentation with the 2,3-BDO producer bacteria strain Paenibacillius polymyxa. Enzymatic hydrolysis performed on the pretreated CS and SG produced theoretical sugar yields of 80 % and 95 % for glucose and xylose, respectively. Fermentations with P. polymxya conducted in anaerobic bottles produced 2,3-BDO reaching concentrations ranging from 14 to 18 g/L with negligible conversion into acetoin. Bioreactor fermentations using the hydrolysate media generated up to 43 g/L and 34 g/L of 2,3-BDO from pretreated CS and SG, respectively, within 24 h of fermentation. However, 2,3-BDO product output was reduced by 40-50 % over the remainder of the fermentation due to conversion into acetoin caused by glucose depletion.

MALDI-TOF as a powerful tool for identifying and differentiating closely related microorganisms: the strange case of three reference strains of Paenibacillus polymyxa. Sci Rep 2024; 14:2585.

Abstract
Accurate identification and typing of microbes are crucial steps in gaining an awareness of the biological heterogeneity and reliability of microbial material within any proprietary or public collection. Paenibacillus polymyxa is a bacterial species of great agricultural and industrial importance due to its plant growth-promoting activities and production of several relevant secondary metabolites. In recent years, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has been widely used as an alternative rapid tool for identifying, typing, and differentiating closely related strains. In this study, we investigated the diversity of three P. polymyxa strains. The mass spectra of ATCC 842T, DSM 292, and DSM 365 were obtained, analysed, and compared to select discriminant peaks using ClinProTools software and generate classification models. MALDI-TOF MS analysis showed inconsistent results in identifying DSM 292 and DSM 365 as belonging to P. polimixa species, and comparative analysis of mass spectra revealed the presence of highly discriminatory biomarkers among the three strains. 16S rRNA sequencing and Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) confirmed the discrepancies found in the proteomic analysis. The case study presented here suggests the enormous potential of the proteomic-based approach, combined with statistical tools, to predict and explore differences between closely related strains in large microbial datasets.

Abstract
2,3-Butanediol (2,3-BDO) is an important gateway molecule for many chemical derivatives. Currently, microbial production is gradually being recognized as a green and sustainable alternative to petrochemical synthesis, but the titer, yield, and productivity of microbial 2,3-BDO remain suboptimal. Here, we used systemic metabolic engineering strategies to debottleneck the 2,3-BDO production in Enterobacter aerogenes. Firstly, the pyruvate metabolic network was reconstructed by deleting genes for by-product synthesis to improve the flux toward 2,3-BDO synthesis, which resulted in a 90% increase of the product titer. Secondly, the 2,3-BDO productivity of the IAM1183-LPCT/D was increased by 55% due to the heterologous expression of DR1558 which boosted cell resistance to abiotic stress. Thirdly, carbon sources were optimized to further improve the yield of target products. The IAM1183-LPCT/D showed the highest titer of 2,3-BDO from sucrose, 20% higher than that from glucose, and the yield of 2,3-BDO reached 0.49 g/g. Finally, the titer of 2,3-BDO of IAM1183-LPCT/D in a 5-L fermenter reached 22.93 g/L, 85% higher than the wild-type strain, and the titer of by-products except ethanol was very low. KEY POINTS: Deletion of five key genes in E. aerogenes improved 2,3-BDO production The titer of 2,3-BDO was increased by 90% by regulating metabolic flux Response regulator DR1558 was expressed to increase 2,3-BDO productivity.

Production of highly pure R,R-2,3-butanediol for biological plant growth promoting agent using carbon feeding control of Paenibacillus polymyxa MDBDO. Microb Cell Fact 2023; 22:121.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemical fertilizers have greatly contributed to the development of agriculture, but alternative fertilizers are needed for the sustainable development of agriculture. 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) is a promising biological plant growth promoter. RESULTS In this study, we attempted to develop an effective strategy for the biological production of highly pure R,R-2,3-butanediol (R,R-2,3-BDO) by Paenibacillus polymyxa fermentation. First, gamma-ray mutagenesis was performed to obtain P. polymyxa MDBDO, a strain that grew faster than the parent strain and had high production of R,R-2,3-BDO. The activities of R,R-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase and diacetyl reductase of the mutant strain were increased by 33% and decreased by 60%, respectively. In addition, it was confirmed that the carbon source depletion of the fermentation broth affects the purity of R,R-2,3-BDO through batch fermentation. Fed-batch fermentation using controlled carbon feeding led to production of 77.3 g/L of R,R-2,3-BDO with high optical purity (> 99% of C4 products) at 48 h. Additionally, fed-batch culture using corn steep liquor as an alternative nitrogen source led to production of 70.3 g/L of R,R-2,3-BDO at 60 h. The fed-batch fermentation broth of P. polymyxa MDBDO, which contained highly pure R,R-2,3-BDO, significantly stimulated the growth of soybean and strawberry seedlings. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that P. polymyxa MDBDO has potential for use in biological plant growth promoting agent applications. In addition, our fermentation strategy demonstrated that high-purity R,R-2,3-BDO can be produced at high concentrations using P. polymyxa.

Abstract
Sugarcane bagasse (SCB) is a significant agricultural residue generated by sugar mills based on sugarcane crop. Valorizing carbohydrate-rich SCB provides an opportunity to improve the profitability of sugar mills with simultaneous production of value-added chemicals, such as 2,3-butanediol (BDO). BDO is a prospective platform chemical with multitude of applications and huge derivative potential. This work presents the techno-economic and profitability analysis for fermentative production of BDO utilizing 96 MT of SCB per day. The study considers plant operation in five scenarios representing the biorefinery annexed to a sugar mill, centralized and decentralized units, and conversion of only xylose or total carbohydrates of SCB. Based on the analysis, the net unit production cost of BDO in the different scenarios ranged from 1.13 to 2.28 US$/kg, while the minimum selling price varied from 1.86 to 3.99 US$/kg. Use of the hemicellulose fraction alone was shown to result in an economically viable plant; however, this was dependent on the condition that the plant would be annexed to a sugar mill which could supply utilities and the feedstock free of cost. A standalone facility where the feedstock and utilities were procured was predicted to be economically feasible with a net present value of about 72 million US$, when both hemicellulose and cellulose fractions of SCB were utilized for BDO production. Sensitivity analysis was also conducted to highlight some key parameters affecting plant economics.

Abstract
Concerning the potential application of the optically active isomer (R,R)-2,3-butanediol, and its production by a non-pathogenic bacterium Paenibacillus polymyxa ATCC 842, the present study evaluated the use of a commercial crude yeast extract Nucel®, as an organic nitrogen and vitamin source, at different medium composition and two airflows (0.2 or 0.5 vvm). The medium formulated (M4) with crude yeast extract carried out with the airflow of 0.2 vvm (experiment R6) allowed for a reduction in the cultivation time and kept the dissolved oxygen values at low levels until the total glucose consumption. Thus, the experiment R6 led to a fermentation yield of 41% superior when compared to the standard medium (experiment R1), which was conducted at airflow of 0.5 vvm. The maximum specific growth rate at R6 (0.42 h-1) was lower than R1 (0.60 h-1), however, the final cell concentration was not affected. Moreover, this condition (medium formulated-M4 and low airflow-0.2 vvm) was a great alternative to produce (R,R)-2,3-BD at fed-batch mode, resulting in 30 g.L-1 of the isomer at 24 h of cultivation, representing the main product in the broth (77%) and with a fermentation yield of 80%. These results showed that both medium composition and oxygen supply have an important role to produce 2,3-BD by P. polymyxa.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to improve resource use efficiency in agricultural systems and agro-based industries, reduce wastes that go to landfills and incinerators, and consequently, improve the economics of 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) production. This study evaluated the feasibility of 2,3-BD production by replacing the mineral nutrients, and buffers with anaerobic digestate (ADE), poultry-litter (PLBC)- and forage-sorghum (FSBC)-derived biochars. Fermentation media formulations with ADE and 5–20 g/L PLBC or FSBC were evaluated for 2,3-BD production using Paenibacillus polymyxa as a biocatalyst. An optimized medium containing nutrients and buffers served as control. While 2,3-BD production in the ADE cultures was 0.5-fold of the maximum generated in the control cultures, 2,3-BD produced in the PLBC and FSBC cultures were ~1.3-fold more than the control (33.6 g/L). Cost analysis showed that ADE and biochar can replace mineral nutrients and buffers in the medium with the potential to make bio-based 2,3-BD production profitably feasible.

Abstract
2,3-butanediol (2,3-BDO) is a platform chemical that can be converted to a wide array of products ranging from bio-based materials to sustainable aviation fuel. This chemical can be produced by a variety of microorganisms in fermentation processes. Challenges remain for high titer 2,3-BDO production during fermentation due to several parameters, but controlling oxygen is one of the most relevant processing parameters to ensure viable product output. This work investigated the fermentation of plant biomass sugars by the 2,3-BDO producer Paenibacillus polymyxa. Aerobic and oxygen limited fermentation conditions were initially evaluated using molasses-based media to determine cell growth and 2,3-BDO output. Similar conditions were then evaluated on hydrolysate from pretreated sweet sorghum bagasse (SSB) that contained fermentable sugars from structural polysaccharides. Fermentations in molasses media under aerobic conditions found that 2,3-BDO could be generated, but over time the amount of 2,3-BDO decreased due to conversion back into acetoin. Oxygen limited fermentation conditions exhibited improved biomass growth, but only limited suppression of 2,3-BDO conversion to acetoin occurred. Glucose depletion appeared to have a greater role influencing 2,3-BDO conversion back into acetoin. Further improvements in 2,3-BDO yields were found by utilizing detoxified SSB hydrolysate.

Fermentative production of 2,3-Butanediol using bread waste - A green approach for sustainable management of food waste. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 358:127381. [PMID: 35644452 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2022.127381] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2022] [Revised: 05/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Bread is Europe's most wasted food, and the second most wasted food after potatoes in UK. Bread waste (BW) is a clean source of high-quality fermentable sugars. In this study, the potential of Enterobacter ludwigii to accumulate 2,3-butanediol (BDO) from BW was evaluated. Initially, the optimal inoculum size and yeast extract concentration were determined, followed by extraction of sugars from BW using acid and enzymatic hydrolysis. A glucose yield of 330-530 g/kg BW was obtained, and the sugars released were utilised for BDO production by E. ludwigii. The fed-batch cultivation using pure glucose and glucose rich hydrolysates from acid and enzymatic hydrolysis resulted in BDO titres of 144.5, 135.4, and 138.8 g/L, after 96 h, with yield of 0.47, 0.42 and 0.48 g/g yield, respectively. The innovation of the work is valorisation of BW to BDO with a circular biorefining approach and thus, reducing BW disposal and associated environmental burden.

A Review on the Production of C4 Platform Chemicals from Biochemical Conversion of Sugar Crop Processing Products and By-Products. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
The development and commercialization of sustainable chemicals from agricultural products and by-products is necessary for a circular economy built on renewable natural resources. Among the largest contributors to the final cost of a biomass conversion product is the cost of the initial biomass feedstock, representing a significant challenge in effective biomass utilization. Another major challenge is in identifying the correct products for development, which must be able to satisfy the need for both low-cost, drop-in fossil fuel replacements and novel, high-value fine chemicals (and/or commodity chemicals). Both challenges can be met by utilizing wastes or by-products from biomass processing, which have very limited starting cost, to yield platform chemicals. Specifically, sugar crop processing (e.g., sugarcane, sugar beet) is a mature industry that produces high volumes of by-products with significant potential for valorization. This review focuses specifically on the production of acetoin (3-hydroxybutanone), 2,3-butanediol, and C4 dicarboxylic (succinic, malic, and fumaric) acids with emphasis on biochemical conversion and targeted upgrading of sugar crop products/by-products. These C4 compounds are easily derived from fermentations and can be converted into many different final products, including food, fragrance, and cosmetic additives, as well as sustainable biofuels and other chemicals. State-of-the-art literature pertaining to optimization strategies for microbial conversion of sugar crop byproducts to C4 chemicals (e.g., bagasse, molasses) is reviewed, along with potential routes for upgrading and valorization. Directions and opportunities for future research and industrial biotechnology development are discussed.

Strain UY79, Isolated from a Root Nodule of Arachis villosa, Displays a Broad Spectrum of Antifungal Activity. Appl Environ Microbiol 2022; 88:e0164521. [PMID: 34757818 PMCID: PMC8788682 DOI: 10.1128/aem.01645-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 11/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
A nodule-inhabiting Paenibacillus sp. strain (UY79) isolated from wild peanut (Arachis villosa) was screened for its antagonistic activity against diverse fungi and oomycetes (Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium verticillioides, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium semitectum, Macrophomina phaseolina, Phomopsis longicolla, Pythium ultimum, Phytophthora sojae, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium rolfsii, and Trichoderma atroviride). The results obtained show that Paenibacillus sp. UY79 was able to antagonize these fungi/oomycetes and that agar-diffusible compounds and volatile compounds (different from HCN) participate in the antagonism exerted. Acetoin, 2,3-butanediol, and 2-methyl-1-butanol were identified among the volatile compounds produced by strain UY79 with possible antagonistic activity against fungi/oomycetes. Paenibacillus sp. strain UY79 did not affect symbiotic association or growth promotion of alfalfa plants when coinoculated with rhizobia. By whole-genome sequence analysis, we determined that strain UY79 is a new species of Paenibacillus within the Paenibacillus polymyxa complex. Diverse genes putatively involved in biocontrol activity were identified in the UY79 genome. Furthermore, according to genome mining and antibiosis assays, strain UY79 would have the capability to modulate the growth of bacteria commonly found in soil/plant communities. IMPORTANCE Phytopathogenic fungi and oomycetes are responsible for causing devastating losses in agricultural crops. Therefore, there is enormous interest in the development of effective and complementary strategies that allow the control of the phytopathogens, reducing the input of agrochemicals in croplands. The discovery of new strains with expanded antifungal activities and with a broad spectrum of action is challenging and of great future impact. Diverse strains belonging to the P. polymyxa complex have been reported to be effective biocontrol agents. Results presented here show that the novel discovered strain of Paenibacillus sp. presents diverse traits involved in antagonistic activity against a broad spectrum of pathogens and is a potential and valuable strain to be further assessed for the development of biofungicides.

Phytotoxins Produced by Two Biscogniauxia rosacearum Strains, Causal Agents of Grapevine Trunk Diseases, and Charcoal Canker of Oak Trees in Iran. Toxins (Basel) 2021; 13:toxins13110812. [PMID: 34822596 PMCID: PMC8618908 DOI: 10.3390/toxins13110812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2021] [Revised: 11/11/2021] [Accepted: 11/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Biscogniauxia rosacearum, recognized for the first time as a pathogen involved in grapevine trunk diseases in Paveh (west of Iran) vineyards, produced meso-2,3-butanediol (1) as the only phytotoxin. Nectriapyrone (2), (3R)-5-methylmellein (3), (3R)-5-methyl-6-methoxymellein (4), and tyrosol (5) were instead produced as phytotoxins from a strain of the same fungus isolated from oak trees in Zagros forests of Gilan-e Gharb, Kermanshah Province. They were identified comparing their 1H and 13C NMR, ESIMS, and specific optical rotation data with those already reported in the literature. The phytotoxicity of metabolites (1–5) was estimated by leaf puncture assay on Quercus ilex L. and Hedera helix L., and by leaf absorption assay on grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) at a concentration of 5 × 10−3 and 10−3 M. Tested on grapevine, meso-2,3-butanediol (1) and (3R)-5-methyl-6-methoxymellein (4) resulted to be the most phytotoxic compounds. On Q. ilex, nectriapyrone (2) and tyrosol (5) showed severe necrosis at the highest concentration while none of the compounds (1–5) was active on H. helix. Furthermore, the phytotoxicity of compounds 3 and 4 was also compared with that of some related natural melleins to perform a structure-activity relationship (SAR) study. The results of this study were also discussed.
