RosPo-2 from the Antarctic Sea. J Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 34:1135-1145. [PMID: 38533592 PMCID: PMC11180913 DOI: 10.4014/jmb.2402.02037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024]
Abstract
When cells are exposed to freezing temperatures, high concentrations of cryoprotective agents (CPA) prevent ice crystal formation, thus enhancing cell survival. However, high concentrations of CPAs can also cause cell toxicity. Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) from polar marine environments exhibit lower toxicity and display effects similar to traditional CPA. In this study, we sought to address these issues by i) selecting strains that produce EPS with novel cryoprotective activity, and ii) optimizing culture conditions for EPS production. Sixty-six bacteria producing mucous substances were isolated from the Ross Sea (Antarctic Ocean) using solid marine agar plates. Among them, Pseudoalteromonas sp. RosPo-2 was ultimately selected based on the rheological properties of the produced EPS (p-CY02). Cryoprotective activity experiments demonstrated that p-CY02 exhibited significantly cryoprotective activity at a concentration of 0.8% (w/v) on mammalian cells (HaCaT). This activity was further improved when combined with various concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) compared to using DMSO alone. Moreover, the survival rate of HaCaT cells treated with 5% (v/v) DMSO and 0.8% (w/v) p-CY02 was measured at 87.9 ± 2.8% after freezing treatment. This suggests that p-CY02 may be developed as a more effective, less toxic, and novel non-permeating CPA. To enhance the production of EPS with cryoprotective activity, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was implemented, resulting in a 1.64-fold increase in production of EPS with cryoprotective activity.

Katiyar S, Srivastava N, Choudhury AR. Microbial fermentation-based synthesis of nano-curcumin suggesting the role of pullulan in nano-formulation. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:131088. [PMID: 38521315 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Curcumin is a multitargeting nutraceutical with numerous health benefits, however, its efficacy is limited due to poor aqueous solubility and reduced bioavailability. While nano-formulation has emerged as an alternative to encounter such issues, it often involves use of toxic solvents. Microbial synthesis may be an innovative solution to address this lacuna. Present study, for the first time, reports exploitation of Aureobasidium pullulans RBF4A3 for production of nano-curcumin. For this purpose, Aureobasidium pullulans RBF4A3 was inoculated in YPD media along with curcumin (0.1 mg/mL) and incubated for 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. Subsequently, residual sugar, biomass, EPS concentration, curcumin concentration, and curcumin nanoparticle size were measured. As a result, nano-curcumin with an average particle size of 31.63 nm and enhanced aqueous solubility was obtained after 72 h. Further, investigations suggested that pullulan, a reducing polysaccharide, played a significant role in curcumin nano-formulation. Pullulan-mediated nano-curcumin formulation, with an average particle size of 24 nm was achieved with conversion rate of around 59.19 %, suggesting improved aqueous solubility. Additionally, the anti-oxidant assay of the resulting nano-curcumin was around 53.7 % per μg. Moreover, kinetics and thermodynamic studies of pullulan-based nano-curcumin revealed that it followed first-order kinetics and was favored by elevated temperature for efficient bio-conversion. Also, various physico-chemical investigations like FT-IR, NMR, and XRD reveal that pullulan backbone remains intact while forming curcumin nanoparticle. This study may open up new avenues for synthesizing nano-polyphenols through a completely green and solvent free process with plausible diverse applications.

Abstract
The bacterium Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH produces an exopolysaccharide (EPS) named Pantoan through using sugar beet molasses (SBM) as an inexpensive and widely available carbon source. This study aims to investigate the kinetics and optimization of the Pantoan biosynthesis using Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH in submerged culture. During kinetics studies, the logistic model and Luedeking–Piret equation are precisely fit with the obtained experimental data. The response surface methodology (RSM)-central composite design (CCD) method is applied to evaluate the effects of four factors (SBM, peptone, Na2HPO4, and Triton X-100) on the concentration of Pantoan in batch culture of Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH. The experimental and predicted maximum Pantoan production yields are found 9.9 ± 0.5 and 10.30 g/L, respectively, and the best prediction factor concentrations are achieved at 31.5 g/L SBM, 2.73 g/L peptone, 3 g/L Na2HPO4, and 0.32 g/L Triton X-100 after 48 h of submerged culture fermentation, at 30 °C. The functional groups and major monosaccharides (glucose and galactose) of a purified Pantoan are described and confirmed by 1HNMR and FTIR. The produced Pantoan is also characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and the rheological properties of the biopolymer are investigated. The present work guides the design and optimization of the Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH culture media, to be fine-tuned and applied to invaluable EPS, which can be applicable in food and biotechnology applications.

Abstract
Pullulan has many useful characteristics but, its high cost limits its potential applications. In the present work, kitchen waste (KW), which otherwise has zero commercial value, was evaluated for the economical production of pullulan. Before fermentation, the KW was hydrolyzed into free sugars using an in-house produced cocktail of enzymes. During hydrolysis, 46 ± 3.5 g/l and 31 ± 2.2 g/l of total reducing sugars and glucose were released, respectively. Hydrolyzed kitchen waste was then used as substrate for fermentation by Aureobasidium pullulans MTCC 2013 yielding 20.46 ± 2.01 g/l pullulan. Further, effect of different nitrogen sources was evaluated and yeast extract (3%) was found to be the best, yielding (24.77 ± 1.06 g/l) exopolysaccharide (EPS). The pullulan produced from KW was characterized in terms of organoleptic properties, physical strength, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and H nuclear magnetic resonance (H NMR) analysis. The results corroborated well with commercial pullulan. The biodegradable nature and water solubility of the film developed from pullulan was also confirmed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the validation of the biodegradability of in-house produced pullulan. Thus, kitchen waste appears to be a promising option for economical pullulan production. Additionally, the method may also prove to be helpful for managing the increasing load of municipal solid waste in an eco-friendly and scientific way.

Abstract
Halophilic protease producing Halobacterium sp. strain LBU50301 was isolated. RSM optimized the fermentation conditions to enhance halophilic protease yield. Optimized conditions used in bioreactor resulted about 13-fold enhancement.
A new potent halophilic protease producer, Halobacterium sp. strain LBU50301 was isolated from salt-fermented fish samples (budu) and identified by phenotypic analysis, and 16S rDNA gene sequencing. Thereafter, sequential statistical strategy was used to optimize halophilic protease production from Halobacterium sp. strain LBU50301 by shake-flask fermentation. The classical one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) approach determined gelatin was the best nitrogen source. Based on Plackett–Burman (PB) experimental design; gelatin, MgSO4·7H2O, NaCl and pH significantly influenced the halophilic protease production. Central composite design (CCD) determined the optimum level of medium components. Subsequently, an 8.78-fold increase in corresponding halophilic protease yield (156.22 U/mL) was obtained, compared with that produced in the original medium (17.80 U/mL). Validation experiments proved the adequacy and accuracy of model, and the results showed the predicted value agreed well with the experimental values. An overall 13-fold increase in halophilic protease yield was achieved using a 3 L laboratory fermenter and optimized medium (231.33 U/mL).

Abstract
Downstream processing is an important aspect of all biotechnological processes and has significant implications on quality and yield of the final product. Several solvents were examined for their efficacy on pullulan precipitation from fermentation broth. Interactions among four selected solvents and their effect on pullulan yield were studied using response surface methodology. A polynomial model was developed using D-optimal design and three contour plots were generated by performing 20 different experiments and the model was validated by performing optimization experiments. The results indicated that lower concentration of ethanol in combination with the other three solvents has resulted in higher yield of polymer from fermentation broth and the optimized solvent system was able to recover 1.44 times more pullulan as compared to the conventional ethanolic precipitation method. These observations may help in enhancing efficiency of pullulan recovery from fermentation broth and also result in reduced cost of production for the final product.
