Screening, statistical optimized production, and application of ?-mannanase from some newly isolated fungi.

ABSTRACT: Eighty-eight fungi isolated from soil and decaying organic matter were screened for mannanolytic activity. Twenty-eight fungi produced extracellular mannanase on locust bean gum as evidenced by zone of hydrolysis produced on mannan agar gel. Six prominent producers, including four Fusarium species namely Fusarium fusarioides NFCCI 3282, Fusarium solani NFCCI 3283, Fusarium equiseti NFCCI 3284, Fusarium moniliforme NFCCI 3287 with Cladosporium cladosporioides NFCCI 3285 and Acrophialophora levis NFCCI 3286 produced the ?-mannanase in the range of 84-140 nkat/mL. All these grew well on particulate substrates in solid-state fermentation (SSF), producing relatively higher titers on mannan-rich palm kernel cake (PKC) and copra meal. Two high yielding strains, F. equiseti (1747 nkat/gds) and A. levis (897 nkat/gds) were selected for statistical optimization of mannanase on PKC. Interaction of two critical solid state fermentation parameters, pH and moisture on mannanase production by these two molds was studied by response surface method. Optimized production on PKC resulted in three- to fourfold enhancement in enzyme yield was observed in case of F. equiseti (5945 nkat/gds) and A. levis (4726 nkat/gds). HPLC analysis of mannan hydrolysate indicated that F. equiseti and A. levis mannanase performed efficient hydrolysis of konjac gum (up to 99%) with exclusive mannooligosaccahride (DP of 4) production. A seminative SDS-PAGE revealed that A. levis and F. solani produced three isoforms, F. moniliforme produced two isoforms while F. fusarioides, F. equiseti, and C. cladosporioides produced a single enzyme.

Project description:Yeasts are important microorganisms used for ethanol production; however, they are not equally efficient in the amount of ethanol production under different environmental conditions. It is, therefore, necessary to screen for elite strains to utilize them for commercial production of these commodities. In this study, yeasts were isolated from different Ethiopian traditional fermented alcoholic beverages (teji, tella, shamiata and areqe tinisis), milk and ergo, teff and maize dough, soil and compost, flowers, and fruits to evaluate their potential use for ethanol fermentation process. Isolates were screened for efficient ethanol production and the selected ones were identified using phenotypic and genetic characters using D1/D2 region of LSU rDNA sequence analysis. The yeast isolates were evaluated based on their growth and fermentation of different carbon sources. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize temperature, pH and incubation time using central composite design (CCD) in Design-Expert 7.0.0. A total of 211 yeasts colonies were isolated of which 60% were ethanologenic yeasts (ethanol producers) and 40% were non-ethanol producers. The yeast population detected from various sources was in the range of 10 5 CFU from traditional foods and beverages to that of 10 3 CFU from fruits and soil samples. The data also showed that the number of colony types (diversity) did not correlate with population density. The highly fermentative isolates were taxonomically characterized into four genera, of which 65% of the isolates (ETP37, ETP50; ETP53, ETP89, ETP94) were categorized under Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the remaining were Pichia fermentans ETP22, Kluyveromyces marxianus ETP87, and Candida humilis ETP122. The S. cerevisiae isolates produced ethanol (7.6-9.0 g/L) similar with K. marxianus ETP87 producing 7.97 g/L; comparable to the ethanol produced from commercial baker's yeast (8.43 g/L) from 20 g/L dextrose; whereas C. humilis ETP122 and P. fermentans ETP22 produced 5.37 g/L and 6.43 g/L ethanol, respectively. S. cerevisiae ETP53, K. marxianus ETP87, P. fermentans ETP22 and C. humilis ETP122 tolerated 10% extraneous ethanol but the percentage of ethanol tolerance considerably decreased upon 15%. S. cerevisiae ETP53 produced ethanol optimally at pH 5.0, 60 h, and 34 o C. pH 4.8, temperature 36 o C, and 65 h of time were optimal growth conditions of ethanol fermentation by K. marxianus ETP87. The ethanol fermentation conditions of P. fermentans ETP22 was similar to S. cerevisiae ETP53 though the ethanol titer of S. cerevisiae ETP53 was higher than P. fermentans ETP22. Therefore, S. cerevisiae ETP53, K. marxianus and P. fermentans ETP22 are good candidates for ethanol production.
