Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) has been a lucrative feedstock for developing biochemical products due to its rich organic content, low carbon footprint and abundant accessibility. The recalcitrant nature of this feedstock is a foremost bottleneck. It needs suitable pretreatment techniques to achieve a high yield of sugar fractions such as glucose and xylose with low inhibitory components. Cellulosic sugars are commonly used for the bio-manufacturing process, and the xylose sugar, which is predominant in the hemicellulosic fraction, is rejected as most cell factories lack the five‑carbon metabolic pathways. In the present review, more emphasis was placed on the efficient pretreatment techniques developed for disintegrating LCB and enhancing xylose sugars. Further, the transformation of the xylose to value-added products through chemo-catalytic routes was highlighted. In addition, the review also recapitulates the sustainable production of biochemicals by native xylose assimilating microbes and engineering the metabolic pathway to ameliorate biomanufacturing using xylose as the sole carbon source. Overall, this review will give an edge on the bioprocessing of microbial metabolism for the efficient utilization of xylose in the LCB.

Stephen JM, Saleh AM. Homofermentative Lactobacilli isolated from organic sources exhibit potential ability of lactic acid production. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1297036. [PMID: 38179457 PMCID: PMC10764624 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1297036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
There has been an increasing interest in recent years in lactic acid bacteria that are derived from organic sources for lactic acid production. This research article presents the isolation and identification of homofermentative lactic acid bacteria from various novel organic sources, followed by qualitative and quantitative analyses of lactic acid produced. A total of 32 isolates were identified initially from various sources, such as curd (C1, C2), probiotics (P1, P2, and P3), silage (Si1 and Si2), soil samples (S1, S2, and S3), vermicompost (V1 and V2), and Farmyard manure. Biochemical tests such as Gram's staining, catalase test, and oxidase test were conducted for preliminary identification of lactic acid bacteria using De Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe agar (MRS) media. Through selection and identification, based on colony morphology and biochemical characteristics, 18 isolates were identified as lactic acid bacteria. The subsequent analysis included a tube test, screening for organic acid production, and homofermentative screening using homofermentative-heterofermentative differential (HHD) medium for qualitative analysis of lactic acid. The results revealed that 9 out of 18 selected strains were homofermentative and had promising potential for the production of lactic acid. Furthermore, six isolates (P1-1, S1-3, C2-1, V2-3, P2-1, and C1-1) from all of the nine positive strains were subjected to pH testing (0, 24, 48, and 72 h) and titrimetric assay for estimation of % crude lactic acid present. The presence of lactic acid was confirmed using thin-layer chromatography (TLC). L (+)-Lactic acid was quantified using a K-LATE enzymatic assay kit, for the best three isolates (P1-1, S1-3, C2-1). Finally, the strains were subjected to 16SrRNA sequencing and were identified as Lactobacilli. Based on the findings of the study, it could be concluded that homofermentative lactic acid bacteria with significant LA-producing ability can be obtained from different organic sources and may prove to be useful in the successful production of lactic acid for biotechnological applications.

Enterococcus faecium s6 Enabled Efficient Homofermentative Lactic Acid Production from Xylan-Derived Sugars. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/fermentation8030134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
A thermotolerant Enterococcus faecium s6 strain exhibited homoferementative lactic acid (LA) production at high xylose concentration (≥50 g/L). In batch fermentation at 45 °C and controlled pH of 6.5, strain E. faecium s6 produced up to 72.9 g/L of LA with a yield of 0.99 g/g-consumed xylose and productivity of 1.74 g/L.h from 75 g/L xylose. An increased LA concentration and productivities with high yields were obtained in repeated batch fermentation that was conducted for 24 runs. In this mode, the strain could produce LA up 81.1 g/L within 5 h fermentation at a high productivity of 13.5 g/L.h and a yield of 1.02 g/g-consumed xylose. The strain was unable to consume birchwood xylan as sole carbon source. However, it could efficiently utilize xylooligosaccharides of xylobiose, xylotriose, xylotetraose, xylopentaose, and xylohexaose. The intracellular xylosidase activity was induced by xylose. Using xylooligosaccharide (50 g/L)/xylose (5 g/L) mixtures, the strain was able to produce maximum LA at 48.2 g/L within 120 h at a yield of 1.0 g/g-consumed sugar and productivity of 0.331 g/L.h. These results indicate that E. faecium s6 is capable of directly utilizing xylan-hydrolyzate and will enable the development of a feasible and economical approach to the production of LA from hemicellulosic hydrolysate.

Enterococci as Dominant Xylose Utilizing Lactic Acid Bacteria in Eri Silkworm Midgut and the Potential Use of Enterococcus hirae as Probiotic for Eri Culture. INSECTS 2022; 13:136. [PMID: 35206710 PMCID: PMC8878294 DOI: 10.3390/insects13020136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 01/20/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
A total of 51 pentose utilizing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from acid-forming bacteria in the midgut of healthy mature Eri silkworm using de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) agar containing 10 g/L xylose (MRS-xylose) as the carbon source supplemented with 0.04% (w/v) bromocresol purple. Further analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed the highest prevalence of up to 35 enterococci isolates, which included 20 isolates of Enterococcus mundtii, followed by Entercoccus faecalis (eight isolates), Weissella cibaria (four isolates), Enterococcus hirae (two isolates), Enterococcus lactis (one isolate), and Enterococcus faecium (one isolate). All 51 LAB isolates showed positive growth on MRS containing a range of polysaccharides as the sole carbon source. All isolates were able to grow and form clear zones on MRS supplemented with 1 g/L xylose, while E. faecalis SC1, E. faecalis SCT2, and E. hirae SX2 showed tannin tolerance ability up to 5 g/L. Moreover, five isolates showed antimicrobial activity against Eri silkworm pathogens, including Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Proteus vulgaris, with E. hirae SX2 having the highest inhibitory effect. Supplementation of live E. hirae SX2 on castor leaves significantly improved the weight and reduced the silkworm mortality when compared with the control group (p < 0.05). This cocci LAB can be considered as the new probiotic for Eri culture. Additionally, this finding presented the perspective of non-mulberry silkworm that could also be used as the model for further applying to new trends of the sericulture industry.
