Saccharomyces pastorianus Residual Biomass Immobilized in a Polymer Matrix as a Biosorbent for Reactive Dye Removal: Investigations in a Dynamic System. Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:491. [PMID: 38399869 PMCID: PMC10892803 DOI: 10.3390/polym16040491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 02/07/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The use of residual microbial biomass from various industries in emerging pollutant removal strategies represents a new area of research in the field. In this case, we examined how to remove reactive dyes from an aqueous solution utilizing a biosorbent made of residual biomass from immobilized Saccharomyces pastorianus (S. pastorianus) in a polymer matrix using a dynamic system. Fluidized bed column biosorption investigations were carried out on a laboratory scale. Brilliant Red HE-3B was chosen as the target molecule. The main parameters considered for this purpose were the flow rate (4.0 mL/min; 6.1 mL/min), initial pollutant concentration (51.2 mg/L; 77.84 mg/L), and biosorbent mass (16 g; 20 g). The experimental data of the fluidized bed study were evaluated by mathematical modeling. The Yoon-Nelson, Bohart-Adams, Clark, and Yan models were investigated for an appropriate correlation with the experimental data. An acceptable fit was obtained for a flow rate of 4 mL/min, an initial pollutant concentration of 51.2 mg/L, and a biosorbent amount of 20 g. The obtained results indicate that the biosorbent can be used efficiently in a dynamic system both for the removal of the studied dye and in extended operations with a continuous flow of wastewater. As a conclusion, the investigated biocomposite material can be considered a viable biosorbent for testing in the removal of reactive dyes from aqueous environments and creates the necessary conditions for the extension of studies toward the application of these types of biosorbents in the treatment of industrial effluents loaded with organic dyes.

Beta vulgaris L.-A Source with a Great Potential in the Extraction of Natural Dyes Intended for the Sustainable Dyeing of Wool. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:1933. [PMID: 37653849 PMCID: PMC10222782 DOI: 10.3390/plants12101933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/02/2023]
Abstract
Beta vulgaris L. is a biennial plant easily accessible all over the world, rich in various biologically active compounds, especially a class of extremely bioactive pigments known as betalains. These dyes predominate in the pulp and peels of beetroot, which is why they can be valorized in food, medicine or in the textile industry. In this work, betalains extractions were carried out applying 3 sustainable options: (1) dissolving/solubilizing betalains in water; (2) extraction under pressure; (3) extraction assisted by an enzyme/pectinase. The obtained extracts were analyzed in the UV-Vis domain, which allowed their characterization by determining the total monomeric anthocyanins, color density (control), polymeric density and browning index. The HPLC-MS analysis highlighted the extracts composition. The colors characteristics were determined through CIELab measurements. The performances of these 3 extracts, during green dyeing (without mordants), were evaluated according to the color characteristics (L*, a*, b* and K/S) of the dyed wool samples under different conditions: pH, temperature, duration of dyeing and volume of extract and stabilizers (Vitamin E and EDTA). Betalains can be considered acid dyes, with a low affinity for wool, which in a pronounced acidic environment dye the wool in an intense, uniform way and with good resistance to washing and rubbing.

Selective pertraction of dicarboxylic acids from simulated Rhizopus oryzae fermentation broths. Sci Rep 2023; 13:7170. [PMID: 37137961 PMCID: PMC10156872 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-34100-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Fumaric, malic and succinic acids have been selectively separated by facilitated pertraction with Amberlite LA-2, using n-heptane as liquid membrane. The feed phase consisted on viscous aqueous solution with similar mixture of carboxylic acids and viscosity as those of Rhizopus oryzae fermentation broth. Due to the differences between the acidities and molecule size of these acids, it is possible to selectively recover fumaric acid from the initial solution. The pH-gradient between the feed and stripping phases, as well as carrier concentration in the liquid membrane represent the main process parameters influencing the pertraction selectivity. Among them, Amberlite LA-2 concentration exhibits the most important control on the selectivity factor S, the maximum value of S being reached for carrier concentration of 30 g/l. The increase of feed phase viscosity amplified the magnitude of these influences on pertraction selectivity, due to the hindrance of acids diffusion towards the region where their reaction with Amberlite LA-2 occurs, effect more important for malic acid. Therefore, by modifying the viscosity from 1 to 24 cP, the maximum value of selectivity factor was increased from 12 to 18.8.

Abstract
Folic acid (vitamin B9) is an essential micronutrient for human health. It can be obtained using different biological pathways as a competitive option for chemical synthesis, but the price of its separation is the key obstacle preventing the implementation of biological methods on a broad scale. Published studies have confirmed that ionic liquids can be used to separate organic compounds. In this article, we investigated folic acid separation by analyzing 5 ionic liquids (CYPHOS IL103, CYPHOS IL104, [HMIM][PF6], [BMIM][PF6], [OMIM][PF6]) and 3 organic solvents (heptane, chloroform, and octanol) as the extraction medium. The best obtained results indicated that ionic liquids are potentially valuable for the recovery of vitamin B9 from diluted aqueous solutions as fermentation broths; the efficiency of the process reached 99.56% for 120 g/L CYPHOS IL103 dissolved in heptane and pH 4 of the aqueous folic acid solution. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were combined with Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) for modelling the process, considering its characteristics.

Abstract
This study focuses on the development of a performant formulation for O/W dermato-cosmetic emulsions, which can be incorporated into novel dermato-cosmetic products or used as such. The O/W dermato-cosmetic emulsions contain an active complex based on a plant-derived monoterpene phenol, bakuchiol (BAK) and a signaling peptide named n-prolyl palmitoyl tripeptide-56 acetate (TPA). As a dispersed phase, we used a mix of vegetable oils, and as a continuous phase, Rosa damascena hydrosol was employed. Three emulsions containing different concentrations of the active complex were formulated (0.5% BAK + 0.5% TPA = E.1.1., 1% BAK + 1%TPA = E.1.2., 1% BAK + 2% TPA = E.1.3.). Stability testing was performed through sensory analysis, stability after centrifugation, conductivity and optical microscopy. A preliminary in vitro study regarding the diffusion ability of antioxidants through chicken skin was also undertaken. DPPH and ABTS assays were used to highlight the optimal concentration and combination in the formulation in terms of antioxidant properties and safety level of the active complex (BAK/TPA). Our results showed that the active complex used for preparing emulsions with BAK and TPA showed good antioxidant activity and is suitable for obtaining topical products with potential antiaging effects.

Statistical Analysis and Optimization of the Brilliant Red HE-3B Dye Biosorption onto a Biosorbent Based on Residual Biomass. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 15:7180.

Abstract
Using various techniques, natural polymers can be successfully used as a matrix to immobilize a residual microbial biomass in a form that is easy to handle, namely biosorbents, and which is capable of retaining chemical species from polluted aqueous media. The biosorption process of reactive Brilliant Red HE-3B dye on a new type of biosorbent, based on a residual microbial biomass of Saccharomyces pastorianus immobilized in sodium alginate, was studied using mathematical modeling of experimental data obtained under certain conditions. Different methods, such as computer-assisted statistical analysis, were applied, considering all independent and dependent variables involved in the reactive dye biosorption process. The optimal values achieved were compared, and the experimental data supported the possibility of using the immobilized residual biomass as a biosorbent for the studied reference dye. The results were sufficient to perform dye removals higher than 70-85% in an aqueous solution containing around 45-50 mg/L of reactive dye, and working with more than 20-22 g/L of prepared immobilized microbial biosorbent for more than 9.5-10 h. Furthermore, the proposed models agreed with the experimental data and permitted the prediction of the dye biosorption behavior in the experimental variation field of each independent variable.

Abstract
Ionic liquids (ILs) are considered a green viable organic solvent substitute for use in the extraction and purification of biosynthetic products (derived from biomass-solid/liquid extraction, or obtained through fermentation-liquid/liquid extraction). In this review, we analyzed the ionic liquids (greener alternative for volatile organic media in chemical separation processes) as solvents for extraction (physical and reactive) and pertraction (extraction and transport through liquid membranes) in the downstream part of organic acids production, focusing on current advances and future trends of ILs in the fields of promoting environmentally friendly products separation.

Biosorbents Based on Biopolymers from Natural Sources and Food Waste to Retain the Methylene Blue Dye from the Aqueous Medium. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14132728.

Abstract
The use of a biosorbent based on residual biomass from brewing industry (Saccharomyces pastorianus) immobilized in a natural biopolymer (sodium alginate) was investigated for Methylene Blue removal from aqueous medium. Saccharomyces pastorianus, immobilized by a simple entrapment technique and by microencapsulation in alginate was characterized using SEM, EDAX, pHPZC and the biosorption behavior toward organic pollutant, such as cationic dye. The biosorption experiments were studied by assessing, in a first stage, the influence of the most important operational physical parameters on the efficiency of the biosorbent: the initial concentration of the dye, the contact time between phases, the temperature, the dye solution pH, the biosorbent granule size, and the amount of biosorbent. The highest sorption capacity was obtained for the biosorbent obtained by microencapsulation, at pH 9, at biosorbent dose of 5.28 g/L and a contact time of about 100 min. The biosorption equilibrium was then studied by modeling the data on the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin- Radushkevich isotherms. The Langmuir model is best suited for experimental data on both particle sizes leading to a maximum biosorption capacity of 188.679 mg/g at room temperature. The values of the adsorption energy, E, obtained with the help of the Dubinin-Radushkevich model-suggest that the type of mechanism (physical or chemical) involved in the biosorption process depends on the particle size of the biosorbent. The results confirm that the residual microbial biomass of Saccharomyces pastorianus immobilized in a polymeric matrix such as sodium alginate, can be considered an efficient biosorbent in retaining cationic organic dyes present in aqueous solutions in moderate concentrations.

Polysaccharides Used in Biosorbents Preparation for Organic Dyes Retaining from Aqueous Media. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14030588.

Abstract
Natural polymers can themselves be efficient as materials with biosorptive properties but can also be used to transform microbial biomass into an easy-to-handle form, respectively, into biosorbents, through immobilization. The article aims to study biosorbents based on residual microbial biomass (Saccharomyces pastorianus yeast, separated after the brewing process by centrifugation and dried at 80 °C) immobilized in sodium alginate. The biosorptive properties of this type of biosorbent (spherical particles 2 and 4 mm in diameter) were studied for removal of reactive dye Brilliant Red HE-3B (with concentration in range of 16.88–174.08 mg/L) from aqueous media. The paper aims at three aspects: (i) the physico-chemical characterization of the biosorbent (Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra); (ii) the modeling of biosorption data in order to calculate the quantitative characteristic parameters using three equilibrium isotherms (Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin–Radushkevich—DR); and (iii) the evaluation of thermal effect and the possible mechanism of action. The results of the study showed that biosorption capacity evaluated by Langmuir (I) model is 222.22 mg/g (ϕ = 2 mm) and 151.51 mg/g (ϕ = 4 mm) at 30 °C, and the free energy of biosorption (E) is in the range of 8.45–13.608 KJ/mol (from the DR equation). The values of thermodynamic parameters suggested an exothermic process due the negative value of free Gibbs energy (ΔG0 = −9.031 kJ/mol till −3.776 kJ/mol) and enthalpy (about ΔH0 = −87.795 KJ/mol). The obtained results underline our finding that the immobilization in sodium alginate of the residual microbial biomass of Saccharomyces pastorianus led to an efficient biosorbent useful in static operating system in the case of effluents with moderate concentrations of organic dyes.

Abstract
The beetroot peels can be a sustainable source of betalains that can dye the wool materials through green processes based on low water and energy consumption. Green chemistry in the extraction of betalains from colored food waste/peels from red beetroot involved the use of water as a solvent, without other additives. In order for the extract obtained to be able to dye the wool, it was necessary to functionalize betalains or even the wool. Three types of sustainable functionalizations were performed, with (1) acetic acid; (2) ethanol; and (3) arginine. For each functionalization, the mechanism that can justify dyeing the wool in intense colors was elucidated. The characterization of the extract was performed with the data provided by UV-VIS and HPLC-MS analyses. The characterization of the wool dyed with the extract obtained from the red beetroot peels was possible due to the information resulting from the FTIR and CIELab analyses. The functionalizations of betalains and wool in acid environments lead to the most intense red colors. The color varies depending on the pH and the concentration of betalains.

Sustainable Functionalization of PAN to Improve Tinctorial Capacity. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:3665.

Abstract
This study may open a new way to obtain the coloration of a polymer during functionalization. Two polyacrylonitrile (PAN) polymers in the form of textile fibers (Melana and Dralon L) were subjected to functionalization treatments in order to improve the dyeing capacity. The functionalizations determined by an organo-hypervalent iodine reagent developed in situ led to fiber coloration without using dyes. KIO3 was formed in situ from the interaction of aqueous solutions of 3-9% KOH with 3-9% I2, at 120 °C. The yellow-orange coloration appeared as a result of the transformations in the chemical structure of each functionalized polymer, with the formation of iodinehydrin groups. The degree of functionalization directly influenced the obtained color. The results of the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX), Map and Temogravimetric Analysis (TG) plus Differential Thermal (DTA) analyses indicated the presence of new functional groups, such as iodine-oxime. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the change of the crystalline/amorphous ratio in favor of the former. The new groups introduced by functionalization make it possible to dye with classes of dyes specific to these groups, but not specific to PAN fibers, thus improving their dyeing capacity.

Polysaccharides as Support for Microbial Biomass-Based Adsorbents with Applications in Removal of Heavy Metals and Dyes. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:2893.

Abstract
The use of biosorbents for the decontamination of industrial effluent (e.g., wastewater treatment) by retaining non-biodegradable pollutants (antibiotics, dyes, and heavy metals) has been investigated in order to develop inexpensive and effective techniques. The exacerbated water pollution crisis is a huge threat to the global economy, especially in association with the rapid development of industry; thus, the sustainable reuse of different treated water resources has become a worldwide necessity. This review investigates the use of different natural (living and non-living) microbial biomass types containing polysaccharides, proteins, and lipids (natural polymers) as biosorbents in free and immobilized forms. Microbial biomass immobilization performed by using polymeric support (i.e., polysaccharides) would ensure the production of efficient biosorbents, with good mechanical resistance and easy separation ability, utilized in different effluents' depollution. Biomass-based biosorbents, due to their outstanding biosorption abilities and good efficiency for effluent treatment (concentrated or diluted solutions of residuals/contaminants), need to be used in industrial environmental applications, to improve environmental sustainability of the economic activities. This review presents the most recent advances related the main polymers such as polysaccharides and microbial cells used for biosorbents production; a detailed analysis of the biosorption capability of algal, bacterial and fungal biomass; as well as a series of specific applications for retaining metal ions and organic dyes. Even if biosorption offers many advantages, the complexity of operation increased by the presence of multiple pollutants in real wastewater combined with insufficient knowledge on desorption and regeneration capacity of biosorbents (mostly used in laboratory scale) requires more large-scale biosorption experiments in order to adequately choose a type of biomass but also a polymeric support for an efficient treatment process.

Abstract
The addition of n-dodecane (between 1-3%) to the Escherichia coli fermentation broth in a mechanically agitated and aerated bioreactor revealed improved DO (dissolved oxygen) levels induced during fermentation which lead to an increase in biomass productivity and faster glucose consumption. The maximum values for enzyme activity (increased with 43% compared with the control) and k L a (the volumetric mass transfer coefficient) were obtained for the addition of 2% v/v n-dodecane in the bioreactor, due to the fact that oxygen limitation during the exponential growth phase of the bacterium can repress β-galactosidase production. The oxygen vector addition increased the available dissolved oxygen and activated a redox-sensitive regulation and an elevated intracellular oxidative metabolism that lead to the enhancement in E. coli biomass accumulation and a more accurate protein folding of β-galactosidase that would increase its activity. In addition to the experimental analysis, a complex model, developed using an improved version of Bacterial Foraging Algorithm and Artificial Neural Networks, was proposed, with a good average absolute value (6.2% in the training phase and 7.28% in the testing phase) between the process dynamic and the predictions generated by the model.

Abstract
Mupirocin is an antibiotic from monocarboxylic acid class used as antibacterial agent against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and can be obtained as a mixture of four pseudomonic acids by Pseudomonas fluorescens biosynthesis. Nowadays improving antibiotics occupies an important place in the pharmaceutical industry as more and more resistant microorganisms are developing. Mupirocin is used to control the MRSA outbreaks, for infections of soft tissue or skin and for nasal decolonization. Due to its wide use without prescription, the microorganism's resistance to Mupirocin increased from up to 81%, thus becoming imperative its control or improvement. As the biotechnological production of Mupirocin has not been previously reviewed, in the present paper we summarize some consideration on the biochemical process for the production of pseudomonic acids (submerged fermentation and product recovery). Different strains of Pseudomonas, different culture medium and different conditions for the fermentation were analysed related to the antibiotics yield and the product recovery step is analysed in relation to the final purity. However, many challenges have to be overcome in order to obtain pseudomonic acid new versions with better properties related to antibacterial activity.

Abstract
The effects of external and internal diffusions of pyridine on its biodegradation rate in a bioreactor with a stationary basket bed of immobilized Bacillus spp. cells have been investigated for various biocatalyst diameters and thicknesses of the basket bed, considering the adapted Haldane kinetic model for substrate inhibition. Due to the very low values of pyridine mass flow inside the biocatalyst particles, the 'biological inactive region' appeared mainly near the particles' centre. This region is extended up to 38.5% from the overall volume of each studied size of the biocatalysts, increasing at higher biocatalyst size and basket bed width. Compared to the system containing free Bacillus spp. cells, the basket configuration of packed bed led to the reduction of biodegradation rate up to 82 times, similar to the mobile bed or column packed bed. The cumulated analysis of the influences of the studied factors allowed concluding that the optimum diameter of biocatalysts is 3 mm.

Abstract
The removal of vitamin C from a mixture with 2-ketogluconic acid by using a bulk liquid membrane (BLM) has been investigated. The studies on facilitated pertraction of vitamin C with Amberlite LA-2 indicated the major parameters that affect the separation efficiency: pH gradient between the two aqueous phases, carrier concentration in the liquid membrane and phase mixing intensity. The overall results obtained in this work showed that liquid membrane system can effectively be used to selectively separate vitamin C from its mixture with the fermentation by-product, 2-ketogluconic acid.
