Abstract

Flavobacterium sp. strain DS5(NRRL B-14859) was used to convert oleic acid to 10-ketostearic acid(10-KSA) via 10-hydroxystearic acid(10-HSA). Increase in cell concentration by centrifuging, collecting cells grown in two flasks, and resuspending in one flask, improved 10-KSA production to 6.5 g/L from 3.5 g/L in a usual flask culture. Tween-80 addition to the culture did not greatly affect the production of 10-KSA and 10-HSA. When culture broth was centrifuged after fermentation, it was observed that pellets were separated into two parts(yellow and white). Gas chromatography analysis showed that 10-KSA and 10-HSA were detected only in a white pellet, suggesting that the bioconversion products of strain DS5 are extracellularly produced and can be easily recovered from cells by a simple centrifugation step.

Flavobacterium sp. strain DS5(NRRL B-14859)를 oleic acid로부터 중간생성물로서 10-hydroxystearic acid(10-HSA)를 거쳐 10-ketostearic acid(10-KSA)로의 전환에 이용하였다. 두 개의 플라스크 배양액을 원심분리하여 세포를 모은 후 한 개의 플라스크에 재현탁하여 세포농도를 증가시킴으로써 10-KSA의 생산이 보통 플라스크 배양의 3.5 g/L에서 6.5 g/L로 향상되었다. 배양액에 Tween-80의 첨가는 10-KSA와 10-HSA의 생산에 크게 영향을 미치지 않았다. 발효 후 배양액을 원심분리한 결과, 펠렛이 두 부분(노란색과 흰색)으로 분리되는 것을 관찰하였다. 기체 크로마토그래피 분석 결과, 10-KSA와 10-HSA는 흰 펠렛에서만 검출되었다. 이는 strain DS5에 의한 생전환 생성물이 세포 밖으로 배출되며 간단한 원심분리 단계를 통해 세포로부터 쉽게 회수될 수 있음을 나타낸다.
