چکیده

xanthan gum is a microbial polysaccharide of great commercial importance as it has unusual rheological properties in solution and consequent range of applications. in this study, a series of mutants were isolated from xanthomonas campestris ptcc 1473 by ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis. the polysaccharide yield of one mutant, xc1473e2, was 30% better than that of the parent strain. it also showed higher xanthan formation and glucose consumption rates compared to the parent strain. xanthan produced by the mutant had enhanced viscosity, higher pseudoplasticity and larger molecular weight. since mutant xc1473e2 appeared white on agar plates, it underwent pigment extraction with methanol. contrary to the parent strain, the mutant showed no absorption at 443nm, i.e. the wavelength related to yellow pigment. this finding suggested that yellow pigmentation and normal xanthan biosynthesis are not necessarily concurrent. in general, mutant xc1473e2 seems to be a strain with interesting characteristics for use in commercial production of xanthan

Xanthan production by Xanthomonas campestris using whey permeate medium.

Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide that is widely used as stabilizer and thickener with many industrial applications in food industry. Our aim was to estimate the ability of Xanthomonas campestris ATCC 13951 for the production of xanthan gum by using whey as a growth medium, a by-product of dairy industry. X. campestris ATCC 13951 has been studied in batch cultures using a complex medium for the d...

Xanthan gum production by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004 using cassava starch as carbon source

Cassava starch is a main renewable bio-resource with low price and mass production in Guangxi, China. It was used as carbon source in growing Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004 (Xcc 8004) for xanthan gum production in this study. The xanthan gum yield of gelatinized cassava starch was higher than that of raw cassava starch; the maximal reducing sugar and amylase activity reached 14.30 g...

Use of Date Syrup as Agricultural Waste for Xanthan Production by Xanthomonas campestris

Xanthomonas campestris was used for producing xanthan gum using date syrup, prepared from low quality dates, as a substrate. Fermentation was carried out with date syrup and sucrose syrup at 28 ˚C and pH 6.8 in a rotary benmarin shaker (240 rpm). The effect of fermentation period (24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h) on xanthan gum production was studied. The results showed that EPS concentration increase...

Construction of lactose-utilizing Xanthomonas campestris and production of xanthan gum from whey.

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris possesses a low level of beta-galactosidase and therefore is not able to grow and produce significant amounts of xanthan gum in a medium containing lactose as the sole carbon source. In this study, a beta-galactosidase expression plasmid was constructed by ligating an X. campestris phage phi LO promoter with pKM005, a ColE1 replicon containing Escherichia c...

Influence of agitation and aeration in xanthan production by Xanthomonas campestris pv pruni strain 101.

Production, viscosity, and chemical composition of xanthan synthesized by bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv pruni strain 101 were evaluated in bioreactor systems. During the process, the volumetric oxygen mass transfer coefficient (k(L)a) and the biomass were determined and the pH was monitored. The cultures were grown in a 3 I bioreactor, with aeration and agitation varying as follows: condi...
