INFLUENCE OF CASEIN HYDROLYZATES AND AMINO ACIDS ON GLUCOSE FERMENTATION BY PROPIONIBACTERIUM FREUDENREICHII

Influence of casein hydrolyzates and amino acids on glucose ferementation by Propionibacterium freudenreichii.

Although the pathways by which propionibacteria ferment glucose have not been completely established, it has been noted by several investigators that relatively large numbers of bacterial cells are required for reasonable reaction rates. During studies on glucose fermentationi by intact cells of Propionibacterium freudenreichii we have found that the addition of the medium components described ...

Propionic acid production in glycerol/glucose co-fermentation by Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii.

Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. shermanii can ferment glucose and glycerol to propionic acid with acetic and succinic acids as two by-products. Propionic acid production from glucose was relatively fast (0.19 g/Lh) but gave low product yield (~0.39 g/g) and selectivity (P/A: ~2.6; P/S: ~4.8). In contrast, glycerol with a more reduced state gave a high propionic acid yield (~0.65 g/g) an...

Utilization of coenzyme A by Propionibacterium freudenreichii.

Lipase and Esterase Activities of Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. freudenreichii.

The lipase and esterase activities of eight strains of dairy Propionibacterium freudenreichii subsp. freudenreichii were studied. A lipase activity was detected on whole cells and in the culture supernatant. The highest activity was expressed at 45 degrees C and pH 6.8. An esterase activity was also detected in the culture medium. The electrophoresis of the intracellular fractions of the cells ...

Influence of vegetable amino acids and oils supplementation of on Chlorella vulgaris amino acid profile

The aim of the present research is to investigate the profile of amino acid of Chlorella vulgaris supplemented with some plant amino acid and oil extracts. The bioactive oil and amino acid from four Iranian medicinal plants, namely Oliveria decumbens, Thymus kotschyanus, Trachyspermum ammi, and Zataria multiflora were obtained. The LC-MS / MS analysis demonstrated that the major amino acids com...
