Modelling of dark fermentation of glucose and sour cabbage.

ABSTRACT: In the article, modified Anaerobic Digestion Models 1 (ADM-1) was tested for modelling dark fermentation for hydrogen production. The model refitting was done with the Euler method. The new model was based on sets of differential equations. The model was checked for hydrogen production from sour cabbage in batch and semi-batch in 5 g VSS (volatile solid suspension)/L and at the semi-batch process from glucose at 5 and 10 g VSS/L. Added parameters determined the conversion of a substrate, hydrogen production, and stress parameters. In the case of a semi-batch process, for one month, cumulative hydrogen production from sour cabbage of 5 g VSS/L was 0.9 L of cumulative hydrogen volume and from glucose 5 g VSS/L (in case of feeding 2 g VSS/L every two days) 2.5 L of cumulative hydrogen volume. At the bacterial population level, hydrogen production was a continuous process at an adequate range of population size and environmental parameters.

Hydroxyapatite Fabrication for Enhancing Biohydrogen Production from Glucose Dark Fermentation.

Project description:Hydroxyapatite (HA) had the effect of maintaining the pH balance of the reaction system and promoting enzyme activity. In this work, hydroxyapatite was synthesized by coprecipitation and characterized for biohydrogen (bioH2) production from glucose. The highest bioH2 yield obtained was 182.33 ± 2.41 mL/g glucose, amended with an optimal dosage of 400 mg/L HA, which was a 55.80% higher bioH2 yield compared with the control group without any addition. The results indicated that HA facilitated the deterioration of organic substances and increased the concentration of soluble microbial products (SMPs). Microbial community analysis revealed that HA significantly increased the abundance of Firmicutes from 35.27% (0 mg/L, HA) to 76.41% (400 mg/L, HA), which played an essential role in bioH2 generation. In particular, the abundance of Clostridium sensu stricto 1 increased from 15.33% (0 mg/L HA) to 45.17% (400 mg/L HA) and became the dominant bacteria. The results also indicated that HA likely improves bioH2 production from organic wastewater in practice.

Effects of post-fermentation on the flavor compounds formation in red sour soup.

Project description:Red Sour Soup (RSS) is a traditional fermented food in China. After two rounds of fermentation, sour soup has a mellow flavor. However, the microbial composition and flavor formation processes in post-fermentation in RSS are unclear. This study investigates the bacteria composition of RSS during the post-fermentation stage (0-180 days) using high-throughput sequencing. The results show that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are dominant during the post-fermentation process, and their abundance gradually increases with fermentation time. Additionally, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to detect volatile flavor compounds in the post-fermentation process. Seventy-seven volatile flavor compounds were identified, including 24 esters, 14 terpenes, 9 aromatic hydrocarbons, 9 alkanes, 6 heterocyclic compounds, 3 alcohols, 3 acids, 3 ketones, 2 phenols, 2 aldehydes, 1 amine, and 1 other. Esters and aromatic hydrocarbons are the main volatile compounds in RSS during the post-fermentation process. Orthogonal partial least squares screening and correlation analysis derived several significant correlations, including 48 pairs of positive correlations and 19 pairs of negative correlations. Among them, Acetobacter spp., Clostridium spp. and Sporolactobacillus spp. have 15, 14, 20 significant correlation pairs, respectively, and are considered the most important bacterial genera post-fermentation. Volatile substances become abundant with increasing fermentation time. LAB are excessive after more than 120 days but cause a drastic reduction in volatile ester levels. Thus, the post-fermentation time should be restricted to 120 days, which retains the highest concentrations of volatile esters in RSS. Overall, these findings provide a theoretical basis to determine an optimal post-fermentation time duration, and identify essential bacteria for manufacturing high-quality starter material to shorten the RSS post-fermentation processing time.

Mechanistic Modelling of Biomass Growth, Glucose Consumption and Ethanol Production by <i>Kluyveromyces marxianus</i> in Batch Fermentation.

Project description:This paper presents results concerning mechanistic modeling to describe the dynamics and interactions between biomass growth, glucose consumption and ethanol production in batch culture fermentation by Kluyveromyces marxianus (K. marxianus). The mathematical model was formulated based on the biological assumptions underlying each variable and is given by a set of three coupled nonlinear first-order Ordinary Differential Equations. The model has ten parameters, and their values were fitted from the experimental data of 17 K. marxianus strains by means of a computational algorithm design in Matlab. The latter allowed us to determine that seven of these parameters share the same value among all the strains, while three parameters concerning biomass maximum growth rate, and ethanol production due to biomass and glucose had specific values for each strain. These values are presented with their corresponding standard error and 95% confidence interval. The goodness of fit of our system was evaluated both qualitatively by in silico experimentation and quantitative by means of the coefficient of determination and the Akaike Information Criterion. Results regarding the fitting capabilities were compared with the classic model given by the logistic, Pirt, and Luedeking-Piret Equations. Further, nonlinear theories were applied to investigate local and global dynamics of the system, the Localization of Compact Invariant Sets Method was applied to determine the so-called localizing domain, i.e., lower and upper bounds for each variable; whilst Lyapunov's stability theories allowed to establish sufficient conditions to ensure asymptotic stability in the nonnegative octant, i.e., R+,03. Finally, the predictive ability of our mechanistic model was explored through several numerical simulations with expected results according to microbiology literature on batch fermentation.

The Correlation Mechanism between Dominant Bacteria and Primary Metabolites during Fermentation of Red Sour Soup.

Project description:Chinese red sour soup is a traditional fermented product famous in the southwestern part of China owing to its distinguished sour and spicy flavor. In the present study, the effect of inoculation of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on the microbial communities and metabolite contents of the Chinese red sour soup was investigated. Traditional red sour soup was made with tomato and red chilli pepper and a live count (108 CFU/mL) of five bacterial strains (including Clostridium intestinalis: Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus: Lactiplantibacillus plantarum: Lacticaseibacillus casei: Lactobacillus paracei) was added and fermented for 30 days in an incubator at 37 °C. Three replicates were randomly taken at 0 d, 5 d, 10 d, 15 d, 20 d, 25 d and 30 d of fermentation, with a total of 21 sour soup samples. Metabolomic analysis and 16S-rDNA amplicon sequencing of soup samples were performed to determine microbial diversity and metabolite contents. Results revealed that fermentation resulted in the depletion of native bacterial strains as LAB dominated over other microbes, resulting in differences in the relative abundance of bacteria, and types or contents of metabolites. A decrease (p < 0.01) in Shannon and Simpson indices was observed at different fermentation times. The metabolomic analyses revealed a significant increase in the relative content of 10 metabolites (particularly lactic acid, thymine, and ascorbic acid) in fermented samples as compared to the control. The correlation network revealed a positive association of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus with differentially enriched metabolites including lactic acid, ascorbic acid, and chlorogenic acid, which can desirably contribute to the flavor and quality of the red sour soup.

Microbial community structure and dynamics of dark fire-cured tobacco fermentation.

Project description:The Italian Toscano cigar production includes a fermentation step that starts when dark fire-cured tobacco leaves are moistened and mixed with ca. 20% prefermented tobacco to form a 500-kg bulk. The dynamics of the process, lasting ca. 18 days, has never been investigated in detail, and limited information is available on microbiota involved. Here we show that Toscano fermentation is invariably associated with the following: (i) an increase in temperature, pH, and total microbial population; (ii) a decrease in reducing sugars, citric and malic acids, and nitrate content; and (iii) an increase in oxalic acid, nitrite, and tobacco-specific nitrosamine content. The microbial community structure and dynamics were investigated by culture-based and culture-independent approaches, including denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and single-strand conformational polymorphism. Results demonstrate that fermentation is assisted by a complex microbial community, changing in structure and composition during the process. During the early phase, the moderately acidic and mesophilic environment supports the rapid growth of a yeast population predominated by Debaryomyces hansenii. At this stage, Staphylococcaceae (Jeotgalicoccus and Staphylococcus) and Lactobacillales (Aerococcus, Lactobacillus, and Weissella) are the most commonly detected bacteria. When temperature and pH increase, endospore-forming low-G+C content gram-positive bacilli (Bacillus spp.) become evident. This leads to a further pH increase and promotes growth of moderately halotolerant and alkaliphilic Actinomycetales (Corynebacterium and Yania) during the late phase. To postulate a functional role for individual microbial species assisting the fermentation process, a preliminary physiological and biochemical characterization of representative isolates was performed.

Metabolism in anoxic permeable sediments is dominated by eukaryotic dark fermentation.

Project description:Permeable sediments are common across continental shelves and are critical contributors to marine biogeochemical cycling. Organic matter in permeable sediments is dominated by microalgae, which as eukaryotes have different anaerobic metabolic pathways to prokaryotes such as bacteria and archaea. Here we present analyses of flow-through reactor experiments showing that dissolved inorganic carbon is produced predominantly as a result of anaerobic eukaryotic metabolic activity. In our experiments, anaerobic production of dissolved inorganic carbon was consistently accompanied by large dissolved H2 production rates, suggesting the presence of fermentation. The production of both dissolved inorganic carbon and H2 persisted following administration of broad spectrum bactericidal antibiotics, but ceased following treatment with metronidazole. Metronidazole inhibits the ferredoxin/hydrogenase pathway of fermentative eukaryotic H2 production, suggesting that pathway as the source of H2 and dissolved inorganic carbon production. Metabolomic analysis showed large increases in lipid production at the onset of anoxia, consistent with documented pathways of anoxic dark fermentation in microalgae. Cell counts revealed a predominance of microalgae in the sediments. H2 production was observed in dark anoxic cultures of diatoms (Fragilariopsis sp.) and a chlorophyte (Pyramimonas) isolated from the study site, substantiating the hypothesis that microalgae undertake fermentation. We conclude that microalgal dark fermentation could be an important energy-conserving pathway in permeable sediments.

NAC047/052/104 Synergistically Regulate the Dark-Induced Leaf Senescence in Non-Heading Chinese Cabbage.

Project description:Non-heading Chinese cabbage (NHCC) is an important vegetable, and its leaves are harvested for consumption. Thus, the initiation and progression of leaf senescence in NHCC directly impact its yield and quality. In multiple plant species, NAC transcription factors are known to act as critical regulators of leaf senescence. However, in NHCC, the NAC transcription factors contributing to leaf senescence regulation remain to be identified, and the mechanisms underlying dark-induced leaf senescence remain unclear. To explore the molecular mechanisms of leaf senescence in NHCC, we stored NHCC away from light and subsequently examined dark-induced transcriptional alterations via RNA sequencing. Interestingly, three NAC transcription factors, BrNAC047, BrNAC052, and BrNAC104, were found to be potently activated by darkness. Subsequently, the virus-induced gene silencing of BrNAC047, BrNAC052, and BrNAC104 demonstrated that these three NACs act as positive regulators of dark-induced leaf senescence in NHCC. Dual-luciferase assays further confirmed that BrNAC047, BrNAC052, and BrNAC104 directly activate the promoters of certain senescence-associated genes. This study uncovers the molecular signaling pathways governing dark-induced leaf senescence in NHCC, highlighting the role of three key regulators and offering valuable molecular targets for delaying leaf senescence in NHCC.

Exploring cocoa bean fermentation mechanisms by kinetic modelling.

Project description:Compared with other fermentation processes in food industry, cocoa bean fermentation is uncontrolled and not standardized. A detailed mechanistic understanding can therefore be relevant for cocoa bean quality control. Starting from an existing mathematical model of cocoa bean fermentation we analyse five additional biochemical mechanisms derived from the literature. These mechanisms, when added to the baseline model either in isolation or in combination, were evaluated in terms of their capacity to describe experimental data. In total, we evaluated 32 model variants on 23 fermentation datasets. We interpret the results from two perspectives: (1) success of the potential mechanism, (2) discrimination of fermentation protocols based on estimated parameters. The former provides insight in the fermentation process itself. The latter opens an avenue towards reverse-engineering empirical conditions from model parameters. We find support for two mechanisms debated in the literature: consumption of fructose by lactic acid bacteria and production of acetic acid by yeast. Furthermore, we provide evidence that model parameters are sensitive to differences in the cultivar, temperature control and usage of steel tanks compared with wooden boxes. Our results show that mathematical modelling can provide an alternative to standard chemical fingerprinting in the interpretation of fermentation data.

Screening of dominant strains in red sour soup from Miao nationality and the optimization of inoculating fermentation conditions.

Project description:Red sour soup is a traditional fermented product in southwest China. Currently, the existing production process mainly adopts the method of natural fermentation, with long fermentation cycles and poor stability between batches. Rapid establishment of dominant strains can accelerate the formation of lactic acid, which can inhibit the growth of miscellaneous bacteria. It is also helpful for the inhibition of nitrite accumulation, shortening of fermentation. In this study, the dominant strain H9, with lactic acid-producing ability, was isolated from the natural fermented red sour soup, and was identified as Lactobacillus buchneri, based on the 16s rRNA sequence analysis and biochemical identification. Then, the optimization of fermentation conditions was performed using L. buchneri H9 strain as external bacteria. The optimized fermentation conditions were temperature of 22°C, starch dosage of 11.24 g/L, and initial inoculation of 3.5 × 108 cfu/L. The concentration of lactic acid reached 8.029 g/L after 8 days of inoculating fermentation, which exceeded 6.221 g/L for 20 days of natural fermentation. Compared with natural fermentation, the peak of nitrite during inoculating fermentation appeared earlier and the peak height was lower. While the nitrite content in inoculating fermentation decreased to safety threshold more quickly. The volatile flavor compounds analysis showed that 41 types of volatile compounds were detected in the inoculating fermentation product, while 45 in the natural fermentation product. Over 88% compounds were overlapped, which means similar flavor between two fermentation products. These results provide a sufficient scientific basis for the industrialized production of inoculating fermentation of red sour soup.

Glucose Brassinosteroid Microarray Dark Grown Seedling

Project description:imbibed Col-0 seeds were sown on ? X MS medium supplemented with 0.8% agar and 1% sucrose. The plates were first exposed to continuous light for 12 h to stimulate germination and then wrapped with two layers of aluminum foil and placed in the growth chamber for 5 d. Once the plant material was uniformly germinated, the experimental conditions were applied. 5-d-old, dark-grown seedlings were washed seven times with sterile water followed by a wash with ? X MS liquid medium without sucrose to remove residual exogenous sugar and the plant material was kept in ? X MS liquid without sucrose in the dark for all subsequent steps. Cultures were shaken at 140 rpm at 22 C for 24 h and then treated with ? X MS without glucose or ½ X MS supplemented with BR (100 nM), glucose (3%), or glucose (3%) + BR (100 nM) for 3 h. Seedlings were harvested after 3h and preceded for RNA isolation and microarray analysis.
