Abstract
In this research, we examined the production of hyaluronic acid (HA) by Streptococcus zooepidemicus strain MW26985 using different substrates and potato peel waste (PPW) as an affordable substrate. First, culture medium components, including carbon and nitrogen sources, were optimized for bacterial HA production. Five different carbon sources (glucose, sucrose, lactose, sago starch, and potato starch, at a concentration of 30 g/L) and three distinct nitrogen sources (peptone, yeast extract, and ammonium sulfate, at a concentration of 10 g/L) were investigated. Glucose, among the carbon sources, and yeast extract, among nitrogen sources, produced the most HA which was determined as 1.41 g/L. Afterward, potato peel sugars were extracted by dilute acid and enzymatic hydrolysis and then employed as a cost-effective carbon source for the growth of S. zooepidemicus. Based on the results, the fermentation process yielded 0.59 g/L HA from potato peel sugars through acid hydrolysis and 0.92 g/L HA from those released by enzymatic hydrolysis. The supplementation of both hydrolyzates with glucose as an additional carbon source enhanced HA production to 0.95 g/L and 1.18 g/L using acidic and enzymatic hydrolyzates, respectively. The cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) turbidimetric method was used to evaluate the concentration of HA in the fermentation broth using the colorimetric method. Also, the peaks observed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed that the exopolysaccharide (EPS) was composed of HA. These observations demonstrate that potato peel residues can be a novel alternative as a carbon source for the economical production of HA by S. zooepidemicus.

Green biorefinery of shrimp shell waste for α-chitin and high-value co-products through successive fermentation by co-lactic acid bacteria and proteolytic fungus. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 393:130106. [PMID: 38008224 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.130106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/28/2023]
Abstract
Green biorefinery process was conducted to extract α-chitin and high-value co-products from shrimp shell waste through microbial fermentation using mature coconut water (MCW) as a sole nutrient source. Symbiotic co-lactic acid fermentation (Co-LAF) by Lactobacillus plantarum and Streptococcus thermophilus produced higher levels of lactic acid (LA) and protease activity than their mono-cultures, which led to greater demineralization (DM) and deproteinization (DP) of shrimp shell powder (SSP). After optimizing Co-LAF through Response Surface Methodology and successive fermentation by an acid-active proteolytic fungus Rhizopus oligosporus, the highest DM of 94.0 ± 0.91 % and DP of 86.7 ± 0.1 % were achieved. Based on FT-IR, XRD, and SEM analysis, the bio-extracted chitin had similar structural characteristics to commercial α-chitin but with better quality. These strategies not only contribute to environmentally-friendly and cost-effective extraction of α-chitin (303 ± 18 mg/g-SSP), but also co-produce LA (57.18 ± 0.89 g/L), acid protease (4.33 ± 0.5 U/mL), bio-calcium (277 ± 12 mg-CaSO4/g-SSP), protein hydrolysate (268 ± 5 mg/g-SSP), and pigments (28.78 ± 1.56 µg/g-SSP).

Abstract
Klebsiella oxytoca KC004 (ΔadhEΔpta-ackAΔldhAΔbudABΔpflB) was engineered to enhance succinate production. The strain exhibited poor growth without succinate production due to its deficiencies in ATP production and NADH reoxidation. To overcome obstacles, evolutionary adaptation with over 6,000 generations of growth-based selection was conducted. Under anaerobic conditions, enhanced productions of ATP for growth and succinate for NADH reoxidation by the evolved KC004-TF160 strain were coupled to an increased transcript of PEP carboxykinase (pck) while those of genes in the oxidative branch of TCA cycle (gltA, acnAB, and icd), and pyruvate and acetate metabolisms (pykA, acs, poxB and tdcD) were alleviated. The expression of pyruvate dehydrogenase repressor (pdhR) decreased whereas threonine decarboxylase (tdcE) increased. KC004-TF160 produced succinate at 84 g/L (0.84 g/g, 79 % theoretical maximum). KC004-TF160 produced succinate at 0.87 g/g non-pretreated sugarcane molasses without addition of nutrients and buffers. KC004-TF160 may be a microbial platform for commercial production of bio-succinate.

Abstract
Lactic acid is a versatile, multi-functional organic monomer in various industries, creating worldwide demand. High titer lactic acid production was achieved by novel Bacillus amyloliquefaciens J2V2AA through sugarcane molasses fermentation up to 178 mg mL-1. A metabolomics approach such as combined GC-MS and LC-MS was applied to elucidate the involvement of key metabolites in lactic acid production. The results revealed the participation of 58 known intra-cellular metabolites at various pathways in lactic acid production. Twenty-eight highly up-regulated and down-regulated metabolites were analyzed, and a schematic diagram of a possible lactic acid production pathway was proposed. The produced lactic acid was analyzed through FTIR, UV-Spectrum, and HPLC analysis.

Abstract
Sichuan Baoning vinegar, a typical representative of Sichuan bran vinegar, is a famous traditional fermented food made from cereals in China. At present, there are few studies on microbial characterization of culturable microorganisms in solid-state fermentation of Sichuan bran vinegar. To comprehensively understand the diversity of lactic acid bacteria, acetic acid bacteria and yeasts, which play an important role in the fermentation of Sichuan bran vinegar, traditional culture-dependent methods combined with morphological, biochemical, and molecular identification techniques were employed to screen and identify these isolates. A total of 34 lactic acid bacteria isolates, 39 acetic acid bacteria isolates, and 48 yeast isolates were obtained. Lactic acid bacteria were dominated by Enterococcus durans, Leuconostoc citreum, Lactococcus lactis, and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, respectively. Latilactobacillus sakei was the first discovery in cereal vinegar. Acetic acid bacteria were mainly Acetobacter pomorum and A. pasteurianus. The dominant yeast isolates were Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in addition to four non-Saccharomyces yeasts. DNA fingerprinting revealed that isolates belonging to the same species exhibited intraspecific diversity, and there were differences between phenotypic and genotypic classification results. This study further enriches studies on cereal vinegar and lays a foundation for the development of vinegar starters.

Abstract
Commercial production of lactic acid (LA) utilizes mostly glucose or lactose coupled with yeast extract (YE) as a supplement. With sugars, nitrogen, and vitamin supplementation being most of the LA production costs, the use of inexpensive molasses, a by-product of the sugar industry, can provide considerable cost savings. There are just a few publications on the production of LA from molasses; consequently, the present investigation was conducted using molasses supplemented with yeast extract. The research was done in a continuous-flow, high-cell-density (HCD) bioreactor with an external membrane microfiltration device for cell recycling. The system, run at 1 L with Lactobacillus delbrueckii NCIM 2025, produced a LA yield of 0.95-0.98 g/g from ∼100 g sugars/L when supplemented with 1 g/L YE. Dilution rates in the range of 0.04-0.36 h-1 resulted in volumetric lactic acid productivities in the range of 4.3-27.6 g/L h, which compares favorably with the highest values recorded in literature, for glucose in the presence of YE, which was as high as 30 g/L. The utilization of cane molasses has a significant impact on the economics of lactic acid production, as measured by a comparison of costs with commercial glucose.

Abstract
As a biodegradable and renewable material, polylactic acid is considered a major environmentally friendly alternative to petrochemical plastics. Microbial fermentation is the traditional method for lactic acid production, but it is still too expensive to compete with the petrochemical industry. Agro-industrial wastes are generated from the food and agricultural industries and agricultural practices. The utilization of agro-industrial wastes is an important way to reduce costs, save energy and achieve sustainable development. The present study aimed to develop a method for the valorization of Zizania latifolia waste and cane molasses as carbon sources for L-lactic acid fermentation using Rhizopus oryzae LA-UN-1. The results showed that xylose derived from the acid hydrolysis of Z. latifolia waste was beneficial for cell growth, while glucose from the acid hydrolysis of Z. latifolia waste and mixed sugars (glucose and fructose) from the acid hydrolysis of cane molasses were suitable for the accumulation of lactic acid. Thus, a three-stage carbon source utilization strategy was developed, which markedly improved lactic acid production and productivity, respectively reaching 129.47 g/L and 1.51 g/L·h after 86 h of fermentation. This work demonstrates that inexpensive Z. latifolia waste and cane molasses can be suitable carbon sources for lactic acid production, offering an efficient utilization strategy for agro-industrial wastes.

Abstract
One-third of the annual food produced globally is wasted and much of the food waste (FW) is unutilized; however, FW can be valorized into value-added industrial products such as biofuel, chemicals, and biomaterials. Converting FW into soil amendments such as compost, vermicompost, anaerobic digestate, biofertilizer, biochar, and engineered biochar is one of the best nutrient recovery and FW reuse approaches. The soil application of FW-based amendments can improve soil fertility, increase crop production, and reduce contaminants by altering soil's chemical, physical, microbial, and faunal properties. However, the efficiency of the amendment for improving ecosystem sustainability depends on the type of FW, conversion method, application rate, soil type, and crop type. Engineered biochar/biochar composite materials produced using FW have been identified as promising amendments for soil remediation, reducing commercial fertilizer usage, and increasing soil nutrient use efficiency. The development of quality standards and implementation of policies and regulations at all stages of the food supply chain are necessary to manage (reduce and re-use) FW.

Abstract
In this study, sugarcane molasses (SCM) was pre-treated in a low-cost fermentation medium to produce probiotic biomass of Lactobacillus paracasei ssp. paracasei F19 (LPPF19) with the combination of dilution, centrifugation, and acid hydrolysis (5 molar sulfuric acid, 60 °C/2 h). Microtox analysis, inductively coupled mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used to measure the effects of SCM pretreatment on the fermentation process. The results showed that the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose was 98%, which represented an increase of 44.4% in the initial glucose content (fermentation-limiting sugar), and harmful heavy metals, such as arsenic, cadmium, and lead, were reduced by 50.3, 60.0, and 64.3%, respectively. After pretreatment, with the supplementation of only yeast extract and salts (Na, K, Mg, and Mn), a biomass of 9.58 log CFU/mL was achieved, approximately ten times higher than that for the control medium used (MRS/DeMan, Rogosa, and Sharpe). The cost reduction achieved compared to this commercial medium was 68.7% in the laboratory and 78.9% on an industrial scale. This work demonstrated that SCM could be used in a cheaper and more effective alternative fermentation to produce LPPF19.

Abstract
The cost of fermentable sugars added as a substrate is one major problem for economic lactic acid (LA) production. Old oil palm trunks (OPT) squeezed sap, the agricultural wastes on replanting and pruning of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis), contained mainly glucose and fructose as a potential feedstock to use as a vast carbon source for LA production. To improve the LA yield and productivity, various fermentation modes were performed by Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC 10863 using OPT sap as a basal medium. A modified constant feed mode of fed-batch and repeated fed-batch fermentation using undiluted OPT sap feed medium can achieve a high average LA concentration of 95.94 g/L, yield of 1.04 g/g, and productivity of 6.40 g/L/h) at 11 h cultivation time. It can also provide open and open repeated batch fermentation with an average LA concentration of 91.30 g/L, yield of 0.87 g/g, and productivity of 3.88 g/L/h at 21 h fermentation time.

Abstract
Lactic acid is the meekest hydroxyl carboxylic acid (2-hydroxy propionic acid) which is a colorless, odorless, hygroscopic, organic compound with no toxic effect, a very inevitable and versatile chemical used in the Food, cosmetics, textile, and pharmaceutical industries for very long years. Lactic acid was produced as non-racemic when specific microbial strains were used; therefore, microbial fermentation gained more attention. Albeit the substratum used for the microbial fermentation price is much exorbitant. Wherefore, identifying the best and cheap substrates is a bottleneck for the scientific community. Sugarcane molasses is the best source of components for microbial growth and cheap raw material for Lactic acid fermentation. This study produced sustainable lactic acid from sugarcane molasses by the Bacillus amyloliquefaciens J2V2AA strain with a higher production of 178 gm/L/24 h. The produced lactic acid was characterized and analyzed by UV-Visible Spectrum, FTIR Spectrum, TLC, and HPLC.

Abstract
With the increasing demand for the biodegradable polymer material polylactic acid and its advantage of being metabolized by the human body, L-lactic acid (L-LA) is becoming increasingly attractive in environmental protection and food industry applications. However, the supply of L-LA is not satisfied, and the price is still high. Compared to enzymatic and chemical synthesis methods, L-LA production by microbial fermentation has the advantages of low cost, large yield, simple operation, and environmental protection. This review summarizes the advances in engineering microbial cell factories to produce L-LA. First, the synthetic pathways and microorganisms for L-LA production are outlined. Then, the metabolic engineering strategies for constructing cell factories to overproduce L-LA are summarized and fermentation modes for L-LA production are also given. Finally, the challenges and prospects of the microbial production of L-LA are discussed. This review provides theoretical guidance for researchers engaged in L-LA production.

Abstract
The industrial relevance of organic acids is high; because of their chemical properties, they can be used as building blocks as well as single-molecule agents with a huge annual market. Organic acid chemical platforms can derive from fossil sources by petrochemical refining processes, but most of them also represent natural metabolites produced by many cells. They are the products, by-products or co-products of many primary metabolic processes of microbial cells. Thanks to the potential of microbial cell factories and to the development of industrial biotechnology, from the last decades of the previous century, the microbial-based production of these molecules has started to approach the market. This was possible because of a joint effort of microbial biotechnologists and biochemical and process engineers that boosted natural production up to the titer, yield and productivity needed to be industrially competitive. More recently, the possibility to utilize renewable residual biomasses as feedstock not only for biofuels, but also for organic acids production is further augmenting the sustainability of their production, in a logic of circular bioeconomy. In this review, we briefly present the latest updates regarding the production of some industrially relevant organic acids (citric fumaric, itaconic, lactic and succinic acid), discussing the challenges and possible future developments of successful production.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion, as an eco-friendly waste treatment technology, is facing the problem of low stability and low product value. Harvesting value-added products beyond methane and removing the inhibitory compounds will unleash new vitality of anaerobic digestion, which need to be achieved by selective separation of certain compounds. Various methods are reviewed in this study for separating valuable products (volatile fatty acids, medium-chain carboxylic acids, lactic acid) and inhibitory substance (ammonia) from the liquid fraction of digestate, including their performance, applicability, corresponding limitations and roadmaps for improvement. In-situ extraction that allows simultaneous production and extraction is seen as promising approach which carries good potential to overcome the barriers for continuous production. The prospects and challenges of the future development are further analyzed based on in-situ extraction and economics.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 330:124930. [PMID: 33735730 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.124930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 02/27/2021] [Accepted: 02/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Managing plastic waste remains an urgent environmental concern and switching to biodegradable plastics can reduce the dependence on depleting fossil fuels. This study emphasises the efficacy of macroalgae wastes, Eucheuma denticulatum residues (EDRs), as potential alternate feedstock to produce l-lactic acid (l-LA), the monomer of polylactic acid, through fermentation. An innovative environmental friendly strategy was explored in this study to develop a glucose platform from EDRs: pretreatment with microwave-assisted autohydrolysis (MAA) applied to enhance enzymatic hydrolysis of EDRs. The results indicate that MAA pretreatment significantly increased the digestibility of EDRs during the enzymatic hydrolysis process. The optimum pretreatment conditions were 120 °C and 50 min, resulting in 96.5% of enzymatic digestibility after 48 h. The high l-LA yield of 98.6% was obtained using pretreated EDRs and supplemented with yeast extract. The energy analysis implies that MAA pretreatment could further improve the overall energy efficiency of the process.

Abstract
Molasses is a major by-product of sugar industry and contains 40-60% (w/w) of sugars. The world's annual yield of molasses reaches 55 million tons. Traditionally, molasses is simply discharged or applied to feed production. Additionally, some low-cost and environmentally friendly bioprocesses have been established for microbial production of value-added bioproducts from molasses. Over the last decade and more, increasing numbers of biofuels, polysaccharides, oligosaccharides, organic acids, and enzymes have been produced from the molasses through microbial conversion that possess an array of important applications in the industries of food, energy, and pharmaceutical. For better application, it is necessary to comprehensively understand the research status of bioconversion of molasses that has not been elaborated in detail so far. In this review, these value-added bioproducts and enzymes obtained through bioconversion of molasses, their potential applications in food and other industries, as well as the future research focus were generalized and discussed.

Abstract
Lactic acid is an organic compound produced via fermentation by different microorganisms that are able to use different carbohydrate sources. Lactic acid bacteria are the main bacteria used to produce lactic acid and among these, Lactobacillus spp. have been showing interesting fermentation capacities. The use of Bacillus spp. revealed good possibilities to reduce the fermentative costs. Interestingly, lactic acid high productivity was achieved by Corynebacterium glutamicum and E. coli, mainly after engineering genetic modification. Fungi, like Rhizopus spp. can metabolize different renewable carbon resources, with advantageously amylolytic properties to produce lactic acid. Additionally, yeasts can tolerate environmental restrictions (for example acidic conditions), being the wild-type low lactic acid producers that have been improved by genetic manipulation. Microalgae and cyanobacteria, as photosynthetic microorganisms can be an alternative lactic acid producer without carbohydrate feed costs. For lactic acid production, it is necessary to have substrates in the fermentation medium. Different carbohydrate sources can be used, from plant waste as molasses, starchy, lignocellulosic materials as agricultural and forestry residues. Dairy waste also can be used by the addition of supplementary components with a nitrogen source.

Abstract
The sucrose metabolic genes (scrA, scrB and scrK) from C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824 were successfully overexpressed in C. tyrobutyricum ATCC 25755, endowing it with the ability to co-utilize sucrose, fructose and glucose in the cane molasses. As a result, the engineering strain C. tyrobutyricum ATCC 25755/scrBAK produced 18.07 g/L and 18.98 g/L butyric acid when sucrose and cane molasses were used as the carbon source, respectively. Furthermore, the medium composition and initial cane molasses concentration were optimized to make full use of the untreated cane molasses. Based on these results, 45.71 g/L butyric acid with a yield of 0.39 g/g was obtained in fed-batch fermentation, and the feedstock cost of using untreated cane molasses was decreased by ~47% when compared with the conventional glucose fermentation. This study demonstrated the potential application of C. tyrobutyricum ATCC 25755/scrBAK for economic butyric acid production from untreated cane molasses.

Abstract
AbstractParametric optimization is an effective way in fermentation process to improve product yield and productivity in order to save time, space and financial resources. In this study, Box–Behnken design was applied to optimize the conditions for lactic acid production by immobilized Lactobacillus pentosus ATCC 8041 cell fermentation. Two quadratic models and response surface methodology were performed to illustrate the effect of each parameters and their interactions on the lactic acid yield and glucose consumption rate in immobilized L. pentosus ATCC 8041 cell fermentation. The maximum lactic acid yield was obtained as 0.938 ± 0.003 g/g glucose with a productivity of 2.213 ± 0.008 g/(L × h) under the optimized conditions of 2.0 mm bead diameter, 5.60 pH, 115.3 g/L initial glucose concentration, and 398.2 mg biomass (CDW) in 100 mL hydrogel. The analysis of variance indicated that the quadratic model was significant and could be used to scale up the fermentation process.

Abstract
D-Allulose 3-epimerase (DAE) has been applied to produce D-allulose, a low-calorie and functional sweetener. In this study, a new DAE from Paenibacillus senegalensis was characterized in Escherichia coli. Furthermore, we presented a tandem isoenzyme gene expression strategy to express multiple DAEs in one cell and construct food-grade expression systems based on Corynebacterium glutamicum. Seventeen expression cassettes based on three DAE genes from different organisms were constructed. Among all recombinant strains, DAE16 harboring three DAE genes in an expression vector exhibited the highest enzyme activity with 22.7 U/mg. Whole-cell transformation of DAE16 produced 225 g/L D-allulose with a volumetric productivity of 353 g·g -1 ·hr -1 . The catalytic efficiency of strain C-DAE9 integrating total 11 DAE genes in chromosome was 16.4-fold higher than strains carrying one DAE. Fed-batch culture of C-DAE9 gave enzyme activity of 44,700 U/L. We also expressed a thermostable invertase in C. glutamicum and obtained enzyme activity of 29 U/mg. Immobilized cells expressing DAE or invertase exhibited 80% of retained activity after 30 cycles of catalytic reactions. Those immobilized cells were coupled to produce 61.2 g/L D-allulose from cane molasses in a two-step reaction process. This study provided an efficient approach for enzyme preparation and allowed access to produce D-allulose from other abundant and low-cost feedstock enriched with sucrose.

Abstract
A cement asbestos compound (CAC) sample was detoxified by a treatment train based on a dark fermentation (DF) process followed by a hydrothermal phase, which led to the complete degradation of the chrysotile fibers. During the biological pretreatment, the glucose was converted in biogas rich in H2 and volatile fatty acids (VFA). The latter caused the dissolution of all the Ca-based compounds and the solubilisation of 50% brucite-like layers of chrysotile fibers contained in the CAC suspended in the bioreactor (5 g/L). XRD analysis of the solids contained in the effluents of the DF process highlighted the disappearance of the chrysotile fiber peaks. However, a complete destruction of all the asbestos fibers is hard to prove and a hydrothermal treatment was carried out to dissolve the "brucite" layers still present in solution. Due to the presence of the VFA produced during the DF, a complete destruction of chrysotile fibers was achieved by a 24 h hydrothermal process performed with a [H2SO4]/[CAC] ratio 50% lower than that adopted in a previous finding. Consequently, the DF pre-treatment can contribute to lower the H2SO4 and the energy consumption of a CAC hydrothermal treatment, due to the production of VFA and H2.

Abstract
The study investigated an integrated bioprocessing of raw and by-products from sugarcane and dairy industries for production of non-digestible prebiotic and functional ingredients. The low-priced feedstock, whey, molasses, table sugar, jaggery, etc., were subjected to transglucosylation reactions catalyzed by dextransucrase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides MTCC 10508. HPLC analysis approximated production of about 11-14 g L-1 trisaccharide i.e. 2-α-D-glucopyranosyl-lactose (4-galactosyl-kojibiose) from the feedstock prepared from table sugar, jaggery, cane molasses and liquid whey, containing about 30 g L-1 sucrose and lactose each. The trisaccharide was hydrolysed into the prebiotic disaccharide, kojibiose, by employing recombinant β-galactosidase from Escherichia coli. The enzyme β-galactosidase achieved about 90% conversion of 2-α-D-glucopyranosyl-lactose into kojibiose. The D-fructose generated by catalytic reactions of dextransucrase was targeted for catalytic transformation into rare sugar, D-allulose (or D-psicose), by treating the samples with Smt3-D-psicose 3-epimerase. The catalytic reactions resulted in the conversion of ~ 25% D-fructose to D-allulose. These bioactive compounds are known to exert a plethora of benefits to human health, and therefore, are preferred ingredients for making functional foods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bacillus licheniformis MW3 as a GRAS and thermophilic strain is a promising microorganism for chemical and biofuel production. However, its capacity to co-utilize glucose and xylose, the major sugars found in lignocellulosic biomass, is severely impaired by glucose-mediated carbon catabolite repression (CCR). In this study, a "dual-channel" process was implemented to engineer strain MW3 for simultaneous utilization of glucose and xylose, using l-lactic acid as a target product. RESULTS A non-phosphotransferase system (PTS) glucose uptake route was activated via deletion of the glucose transporter gene ptsG and introduction of the galactose permease gene galP. After replacing the promoter of glucokinase gene glck with the strong promoter Pals, the engineered strain recovered glucose consumption and utilized glucose and xylose simultaneously. Meanwhile, to improve the consumption rate of xylose in this strain, several measures were undertaken, such as relieving the regulation of the xylose repressor XylR, reducing the catabolite-responsive element, and optimizing the rate-limiting step. Knockout of ethanol and acetic acid pathway genes further increased lactic acid yield by 6.2%. The resultant strain, RH15, was capable of producing 121.9 g/L l-lactic acid at high yield (95.3%) after 40 h of fermentation from a mixture of glucose and xylose. When a lignocellulosic hydrolysate was used as the substrate, 99.3 g/L l-lactic acid was produced within 40 h, with a specific productivity of 2.48 g/[L h] and a yield of 94.6%. CONCLUSIONS Our engineered strain B. licheniformis RH15 could thermophilically produced l-lactic acid from lignocellulosic hydrolysate with relatively high concentration and productivity at levels that were competitive with most reported cases of l-lactic acid-producers. Thus, the engineered strain might be used as a platform for the production of other chemicals. In addition to engineering the B. licheniformis strain, the "dual-channel" process might serve as an alternative method for engineering a variety of other strains.

Abstract
Pullulan is a natural exopolysaccharide with many useful characteristics. However, pullulan is more costly than other exopolysaccharides, which limits its effective application. The purpose of this study was to adopt a novel mixed-sugar strategy for maximizing pullulan production, mainly using potato starch hydrolysate as a low-cost substrate for liquid-state fermentation by Aureobasidium pullulans. Based on fermentation kinetics evaluation of pullulan production by A. pullulans 201253, the pullulan production rate of A. pullulans with mixtures of potato starch hydrolysate and sucrose (potato starch hydrolysate:sucrose = 80:20) was 0.212 h−1, which was significantly higher than those of potato starch hydrolysate alone (0.146 h−1) and mixtures of potato starch hydrolysate, glucose, and fructose (potato starch hydrolysate:glucose:fructose = 80:10:10, 0.166 h−1) with 100 g L−1 total carbon source. The results suggest that mixtures of potato starch hydrolysate and sucrose could promote pullulan synthesis and possibly that a small amount of sucrose stimulated the enzyme responsible for pullulan synthesis and promoted effective potato starch hydrolysate conversion effectively. Thus, mixed sugars in potato starch hydrolysate and sucrose fermentation might be a promising alternative for the economical production of pullulan.

Abstract
In this study, mucilage, a residue from coffee production, was investigated as substrate in fermentative l(+)-lactic acid production. Mucilage was provided as liquid suspension consisting glucose, galactose, fructose, xylose and sucrose as free sugars (up to 60gL(-1)), and used directly as medium in Bacillus coagulans batch fermentations carried out at 2 and 50L scales. Using mucilage and 5gL(-1) yeast extract as additional nitrogen source, more than 40gL(-1) lactic acid was obtained. Productivity and yield were 4-5gL(-1)h(-1) and 0.70-0.77g lactic acid per g of free sugars, respectively, irrespective the scale. Similar yield was found when no yeast extract was supplied, the productivity, however, was 1.5gL(-1)h(-1). Down-stream processing of culture broth, including filtration, electrodialysis, ion exchange chromatography and distillation, resulted in a pure lactic acid formulation containing 930gL(-1)l(+)-lactic acid. Optical purity was 99.8%.

Abstract
High production of polymer-grade d-lactic acid is urgently required, particularly for the synthesis of polylactic acid. High-temperature fermentation has multiple advantages, such as lower equipment requirement and energy consumption, which are essential for lowering operating costs. We identified and introduced a unique d-lactate dehydrogenase into a thermotolerant butane-2,3-diol-producing strain. Carbon flux "trapping" was achieved by a "trapping point" created by combination of the introduced enzyme and the host efflux pump, which afforded irreversible transport of d-lactic acid. The overall carbon flux of the engineered strain was significantly enhanced and was redistributed predominantly to d-lactic acid. Under optimized conditions at 50 °C, d-lactic acid reached the highest titer (226.6 g L(-1) ) reported to date. This discovery allows us to extend the carbon flux trapping strategy to engineering complex metabolic networks.

Abstract
Abstract
Members of the genus Bacillus are considered to be both, among the best studied and most commonly used bacteria as well as the most still unexplored and the most wide-applicable potent bacteria because novel Bacillus strains are continuously being isolated and used in various areas. Production of optically pure l-lactic acid (l-LA), a feedstock for bioplastic synthesis, from renewable resources has recently attracted attention as a valuable application of Bacillus strains. l-LA fermentation by other producers, including lactic acid bacteria and Rhizopus strains (fungi) has already been addressed in several reviews. However, despite the advantages of l-LA fermentation by Bacillus strains, including its high growth rate, utilization of various carbon sources, tolerance to high temperature, and growth in simple nutritional conditions, it has not been reviewed. This review article discusses new findings on LA-producing Bacillus strains and compares them to other producers. The future prospects for LA-producing Bacillus strains are also discussed.

Abstract
Reducing the viscosity of molasses environmentally and selectively removing the harmful ingredients for microbes are the keys to promoting the bioavailability of molasses. A simple and environmental in situ pretreatment method integrating surfactants and alkali was developed to reduce the viscosity of molasses prior to L-lysine production using Escherichia coli ZY0217. Adding activated carbon and modified orange peel based on the in situ pretreatment process effectively removed pigments and excessive zinc in the molasses and also significantly increased the cell growth and L-lysine yield from E. coli ZY0217. The experimental results showed that a mixture of secondary alkane sulfonate, an anionic surfactant, and HodagCB-6, a non-ionic surfactant, effectively reduced the viscosity of the molasses more so than any single surfactant. When the surfactant mixture was added at a concentration of 0.04 g/L to the molasses, the ω value was 0.4, and when ammonia was added at 0.6 %, the lowest viscosity of 705 mPa · s was obtained. Further, 91.5 % of the color and 86.68 % of the original levels of zinc were removed using an activated carbon and modified orange peel treatment on the molasses with the lowest viscosity, which further promoted cell growth and L-lysine production. In the fed-batch cultivation process, the L-lysine concentration achieved using a constant-speed feeding strategy was 45.89 g/L, with an L-lysine yield of 27.18 %, whereas the L-lysine yield from untreated molasses was only 10.13 %. The increase in L-lysine yield was related to the reduced viscosity and the detoxification of the molasses. Lastly, the pretreatment was found to significantly enhance the conversion of sugars in the molasses to L-lysine.

Abstract
Lactate production is enhanced by adding calcium carbonate or sodium hydroxide during fermentation. However, Bacillus coagulans 2-6 can produce more than 180 g/L L-lactic acid when calcium lactate is accumulated, but less than 120 g/L L-lactic acid when sodium lactate is formed. The molecular mechanisms by which B. coagulans responds to calcium lactate and sodium lactate remain unclear. In this study, comparative transcriptomic methods based on high-throughput RNA sequencing were applied to study gene expression changes in B. coagulans 2-6 cultured in non-stress, sodium lactate stress and calcium lactate stress conditions. Gene expression profiling identified 712 and 1213 significantly regulated genes in response to calcium lactate stress and sodium lactate stress, respectively. Gene ontology assignments of the differentially expressed genes were performed. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that ‘ATP-binding cassette transporters’ were significantly affected by calcium lactate stress, and ‘amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism’ was significantly affected by sodium lactate stress. It was also found that lactate fermentation was less affected by calcium lactate stress than by sodium lactate stress. Sodium lactate stress had negative effect on the expression of ‘glycolysis/gluconeogenesis’ genes but positive effect on the expression of ‘citrate cycle (TCA cycle)’ genes. However, calcium lactate stress had positive influence on the expression of ‘glycolysis/gluconeogenesis’ genes and had minor influence on ‘citrate cycle (TCA cycle)’ genes. Thus, our findings offer new insights into the responses of B. coagulans to different lactate stresses. Notably, our RNA-seq dataset constitute a robust database for investigating the functions of genes induced by lactate stress in the future and identify potential targets for genetic engineering to further improve L-lactic acid production by B. coagulans.

Abstract
Lactic acid is one of the top 30 potential building-block chemicals from biomass, of which the most extensive use is in the polymerization of lactic acid to poly-lactic-acid (PLA). To reduce the cost of PLA, the search for cheap raw materials and low-cost process for lactic acid production is highly desired. In this study, the final titer of produced L-lactic acid reached a concentration of 185 g·L−1 with a volumetric productivity of 1.93 g·L−1·h−1 by using sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate as the sole carbon source simultaneously with cottonseed meal as cheap nitrogen sources under the open fed-batch fermentation process. Furthermore, a lactic acid yield of 0.99 g per g of total reducing sugars was obtained, which is very close to the theoretical value (1.0 g g−1). No D-isomer of lactic acid was detected in the broth, and thereafter resulted in an optical purity of 100%, which exceeds the requirement of lactate polymerization process. To our knowledge, this is the best performance of fermentation on polymer-grade L-lactic acid production totally using lignocellulosic sources. The high levels of optically pure l-lactic acid produced, combined with the ease of handling and low costs associated with the open fermentation strategy, indicated the thermotolerant Bacillus sp. P38 could be an excellent candidate strain with great industrial potential for polymer-grade L-lactic acid production from various cellulosic biomasses.

Abstract
Lactic acid is a platform chemical with various industrial applications, and its derivative, calcium lactate, is an important food additive. Fermentation coupled with in situ product removal (ISPR) can provide more outputs with high productivity. The method used in this study was based on calcium lactate crystallization. Three cycles of crystallization were performed during the fermentation course using a Bacillus coagulans strain H-1. As compared to fed-batch fermentation, this method showed 1.7 times higher average productivity considering seed culture, with 74.4% more L-lactic acid produced in the fermentation with ISPR. Thus, fermentation coupled with crystallization-based ISPR may be a biotechnological alternative that provides an efficient system for production of calcium lactate or lactic acid.

Abstract
Lactic acid is an important chemical with various industrial applications, and it can be efficiently produced by fermentation, in which Bacillus coagulans strains present excellent performance. Betaine can promote lactic acid fermentation as an effective osmoprotectant. Here, positive effect of betaine on fermentation by B. coagulans is revealed. Betaine could enhance lactic acid production by protecting l-LDH activity and cell growth from osmotic inhibition, especially under high glucose concentrations and with poor organic nitrogen nutrients. The fermentation with 0.05 g/L betaine could produce 17.9% more lactic acid compared to the fermentation without betaine. Beet molasses, which is rich in sucrose and betaine, was utilized in a co-feeding fermentation and raised the productivity by 22%. The efficient lactic acid fermentation by B. coagulans is thus developed by using betaine and beet molasses.
