Kusumawati N, Sumarlan SH, Zubaidah E, Wardani AK. Isolation of xylose-utilizing yeasts from oil palm waste for xylitol and ethanol production. BIORESOUR BIOPROCESS 2023; 10:71. [PMID: 38647966 PMCID: PMC10992423 DOI: 10.1186/s40643-023-00691-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The energy crisis triggers the use of energy sources that are renewable, such as biomass made from lignocellulosic materials, to produce various chemical compounds for food ingredients and biofuel. The efficient conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into products with added value involves the activity of microorganisms, such as yeasts. For the conversion, microorganisms must be able to use various sugars in lignocellulosic biomass, including pentose sugars, especially xylose. This study aims to isolate xylose-utilizing yeasts and analyze their fermentation activity to produce xylitol and ethanol, as well as their ability to grow in liquid hydrolysate produced from pretreated lignocellulosic biomass. Nineteen yeast isolates could grow on solid and liquid media using solely xylose as a carbon source. All isolates can grow in a xylose medium with incubation at 30 °C, 37 °C, 42 °C, and 45 °C. Six isolates, namely SLI (1), SL3, SL6, SL7, R5, and OPT4B, were chosen based on their considerable growth and high xylose consumption rate in a medium with 50 g/L xylose with incubation at 30 °C for 48 h. Four isolates tested, namely SLI (1), SL6, SL7, and R5, can produce xylitol in media containing xylose carbon sources. The concentration of xylitol produced was determined using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the results ranged from 5.0 to 6.0 g/L. Five isolates tested, namely SLI (1), SL6, SL3, R5, and OPT4B, can produce ethanol. The ethanol content produced was determined using gas chromatography (GC), with concentrations ranging from 0.85 to 1.34 g/L. Three isolates, namely SL1(1), R5, and SL6, were able to produce xylitol and ethanol from xylose as carbon sources and were also able to grow on liquid hydrolyzate from pretreated oil palm trunk waste with the subcritical water method. The three isolates were further analyzed using the 18S rDNA sequence to identify the species and confirm their phylogenetic position. Identification based on DNA sequence analysis revealed that isolates SL1(1) and R5 were Pichia kudriavzevii, while isolate SL6 was Candida xylopsoci. The yeast strains isolated from this study could potentially be used for the bioconversion process of lignocellulosic biomass waste to produce value-added derivative products.

Khotimah H, Astuti RI, Rafi M, Yuliana ND. Metabolomics Study Reveals Biomarker L-Proline as Potential Stress-Protectant Compound for High-Temperature Bioethanol Fermentation by Yeast Pichia kudriavzevii 1P4. Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2023; 195:5180-5198.

Abstract
High-temperature ethanol fermentation (> 40 °C) can be applied as effective bioprocess technology to increase ethanol production. Thermotolerant yeast Pichia kudriavzevii 1P4 showed the ability to produce ethanol at optimum 37 °C. Thus, this study evaluated the ethanol productivity of isolate 1P4 at high-temperature ethanol fermentation (42 and 45 °C) and the identification of metabolite biomarkers using untargeted metabolomics with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). 1P4 showed tolerance to temperature stress up to 45 °C and thus relevant for high-temperature fermentation. As measured by gas chromatography (GC), bioethanol production of 1P4 at 30, 37, 42, and 45 °C was 5.8 g/l, 7.1 g/l, 5.1 g/l, and 2.8 g/l, respectively. The classification of biomarker compounds was based on orthogonal projection analysis to latent structure discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), resulting in L-proline being a suspected biomarker compound for isolate 1P4 tolerance against high-temperature stress. Indeed, supplementation of L-proline on fermentation medium supported the growth of 1P4 at high temperatures (> 40 °C) than without L-proline. The bioethanol production with the addition of the L-proline resulted in the highest ethanol concentration (7.15 g/l) at 42 °C. Supplementation of L-proline as a stress-protective compound increased ethanol productivity at high-temperature fermentation of 42 and 45 °C by 36.35% and 83.33%, respectively, compared without the addition of L-proline. Preliminary interpretation of these results indicates that bioprocess engineering through supplementation of stress-protective compounds L-proline increases the fermentation efficiency of isolate 1P4 at higher temperatures (42 °C and 45 °C).

Abstract
Considering the cost-effectiveness of bioethanol production at high temperatures, there is an enduring need to find new thermotolerant ethanologenic yeasts. In this study, a total of eighteen thermotolerant yeasts were isolated from various natural fermented products in Morocco. Ethanol production using 50 g/L glucose or 50 g/L xylose as the sole carbon source revealed potential yeasts with high productivities and volumetric ethanol productivities at high temperatures. Based on molecular identification, the selected thermotolerant fermentative isolates were affiliated with Pichia kudriavzevii, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Kluyveromyces sp. During the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of lignocellulosic biomass at a high temperature (42 °C), the designated yeast P. kudriavzevii YSR7 produced an ethanol concentration of 22.36 g/L, 18.2 g/L and 6.34 g/L from 100 g/L barley straw (BS), chickpea straw (CS), and olive tree pruning (OTP), respectively. It also exhibited multi-stress tolerance, such as ethanol, acetic acid, and osmotic tolerance. Therefore, the yeast P. kudriavzevii YSR7 showed promising attributes for biorefinery-scale ethanol production in the future.

Abstract
Thermotolerant ethanol fermenting yeasts have been extensively used in industrial bioethanol production. However, little is known about yeast physiology under stress during bioethanol processing. This study investigated the physiological characteristics of the thermotolerant yeast Pichia kudriavzevii, strains NUNS-4, NUNS-5 and NUNS-6, under the multiple stresses of heat, ethanol and sodium chloride. Results showed that NUNS-4, NUNS-5 and NUNS-6 displayed higher growth rates under each stress condition than the reference strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae TISTR5606. Maximum specific growth rates under stresses of heat (45°C), 15% v/v ethanol and 1·0 M sodium chloride were 0·23 ± 0·04 (NUNS-4), 0·11 ± 0·01 (NUNS-5) and 0·15 ± 0·01 h-1 (NUNS-5), respectively. Morphological features of all yeast studied changed distinctly with the production of granules and vacuoles when exposed to ethanol, and cells were elongated under increased sodium chloride concentration. This study suggests that the three P. kudriavzevii strains are potential candidates to use in industrial-scale fermentation due to a high specific growth rate under multiple stress conditions. Multiple stress-tolerant P. kudriavzevii NUNS strains have received much attention not only for improving large-scale fuel ethanol production, but also for utilizing these strains in other biotechnological industries.

Yeasts with Fermentative Potential Associated with Fruits of Camu-Camu ( Myrciaria dubia, Kunth) from North of Brazilian Amazon. ScientificWorldJournal 2021; 2021:9929059. [PMID: 34899087 PMCID: PMC8664548 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9929059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2021] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 11/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Considering the high biotechnological potential of yeasts associated to edible fruits, a screening for these microorganisms, capable of alcoholic fermentation, was performed in ripe fruits of camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia, Kunth). The fruits were collected from north of Brazilian Amazon, in the floodplain of the Cauamé River. Yeasts were isolated, and fermentation capability was evaluated using Durham tubes. Quantitative assays were performed to calculate ethanol yield (g g-1), specific growth rate (h-1), and ethanol productivity (g L-1·h-1). Taxonomic identification was performed by ribosomal gene nucleotide sequence analysis by alignment using BLASTN. A total of fifteen yeast colonies were isolated, and three of them presented promising ability to ferment glucose to ethanol. These isolates were identified as Candida orthopsilosis, Pichia kudriavzevii, and Meyerozyma caribbica. When cultured in broth containing 180 g·L-1 of glucose, M. caribbica CC003 reached 91.7 percent of the maximum theoretical ethanol concentration (84.4 g·L-1), presenting an ethanol yield and productivity of 0.4688 g·g-1 and 0.781 g·L-1·h-1, respectively. These results indicate a promising potential of this isolate for bioprocess applications. This paper is a rare report of C. orthopsilosis with endophytic habit because most of the references indicate it as a human pathogen. Besides this, M. caribbica is a promising fermenter for alcoholic beverages due to its osmotolerance and high ethanol yield. This is the first paper reporting endophytic yeasts associated with fruits of Myrciaria dubia.

Abstract
The interest in using non-conventional yeasts to produce value-added compounds from low cost substrates, such as lignocellulosic materials, has increased in recent years. Setting out to discover novel microbial strains that can be used in biorefineries, an Issatchenkia orientalis strain was isolated from waste cooking oil (WCO) and its capability to produce ethanol from wheat straw hydrolysate (WSHL) was analyzed. As with previously isolated I. orientalis strains, WCO-isolated I. orientalis KJ27-7 is thermotolerant. It grows well at elevated temperatures up to 42 °C. Furthermore, spot drop tests showed that it is tolerant to various chemical fermentation inhibitors that are derived from the pre-treatment of lignocellulosic materials. I. orientalis KJ27-7 is particularly tolerant to acetic acid (up to 75 mM) and tolerates 10 mM formic acid, 5 mM furfural and 10 mM hydroxymethylfurfural. Important for biotechnological cellulosic ethanol production, I. orientalis KJ27-7 grows well on plates containing up to 10% ethanol and media containing up to 90% WSHL. As observed in shake flask fermentations, the specific ethanol productivity correlates with WSHL concentrations. In 90% WSHL media, I. orientalis KJ27-7 produced 10.3 g L−1 ethanol within 24 h. This corresponds to a product yield of 0.50 g g−1 glucose (97% of the theoretical maximum) and a volumetric productivity of 0.43 g L−1 h−1. Therefore, I. orientalis KJ27-7 is an efficient producer of lignocellulosic ethanol from WSHL.

Abstract
Yeasts play an important role in the cocoa fermentation process. Although the most relevant function is the degradation of sugars and the production of ethanol, there is little understanding of the enzyme activities and attributes that allow them to survive even after drying. The present study explored the functional biodiversity of yeasts associated with Criollo Colombian cocoa fermented beans, able to survive after drying. Twelve species belonging to 10 genera of osmo-, acid-, thermo-, and desiccation-tolerant yeasts were isolated and identified from fermented and dry cocoa beans, with Pichia kudriavzevii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae standing out as the most frequent. For the first time, we reported the presence of Zygosaccharomyces bisporus in cocoa fermented beans. It was found that resistance to desiccation is related to the different degradation capacities of fermentation substrates, which suggests that associative relationships may exist between the different yeast species and their degradation products. Besides, the increased thermotolerance of some species was related to the presence of polyphenols in the medium, which might play a fundamental role in shaping the microbial community composition.

Abstract
The effect of eight cold-resistant yeast strains (J3, J7, J8, J9, J12, J15, J18, and J25) of Wickerhamomyces anomalus on the lipid oxidation of cold stored fish mince (4 °C) were investigated. And the metabolites of these yeast were determined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. These strains could effectively inhibit the increase of hydroperoxides value (p < 0.05), and the inhibiting rate was positively correlated with the content of isolongifolene, xylitol, turanose, thymol-glucoside, and uridine. Especially, the J3, J7, J8, J9, J12, and J18 could eliminate a large part of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) (p < 0.05), the eliminating rate was proportionate to the aldehyde dehydrogenase activity. Several bacteriostatic metabolites were detected: thymol-glucoside, 2-phenylethanol, cedro, and 2,4-bis (1,1-dimethylethyl) phenol. In addition, W. anomalus produced many metabolites with fruit and floral notes. In conclusion, cold-resistant W. anomalus strains own antioxidant activity were potential new bio-preservatives in the cold storage of muscle products.
