  • The potential polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)-producing bacteria, Bacillus megaterium PP-10, was successfully isolated and studied its feasibility for utilization of pineapple peel waste (PPW) as a cheap carbon substrate. The PPW was pretreated with 1% (v/v) H2SO4 under steam sterilization and about 26.4 g/l of total reducing sugar (TRS) in pineapple peel hydrolysate (PPH) was generated and main fermentable sugars were glucose and fructose. A maximum cell growth and PHA concentration of 3.63 ± 0.07 g/l and 1.98 ± 0.09 g/l (about 54.58 ± 2.39%DCW) were received in only 12 h when grown in PPH. Interestingly, PHA productivity and biomass yield (Yx/s) in PPH was about 4 times and 1.5 times higher than in glucose. To achieve the highest DCW and PHA production, the optimal culture conditions e.g. carbon to nitrogen ratios of 40 mole/mole, incubation temperature at 35℃ and shaking speed of 200 rpm were performed and a maximum DCW up to 4.24 ± 0.04 g/l and PHA concentration of 2.68 ± 0.02 g/l (61% DCW) were obtained. The produced PHA was further examined its monomer composition and found to contain only 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB). This finding corresponded with the presence of class IV PHA synthase gene. Finally, certain thermal properties of the produced PHA i.e. the melting temperature (Tm) and the glass transition temperature (Tg) were about 176℃ and -4℃, respectively whereas the Mw was about 1.07 KDa ; therefore, the newly isolated B. megaterium PP-10 is a promising bacterial candidate for the efficient conversion of low-cost PPH to PHA.

  • 오일 피크, 기후변화 그리고 미세 플라스틱과 관련된 석유합성 플라스틱의 생산과 사용은, 지속 가능한 인류 생활을 위협하는 범세계적 이슈로 대두되고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 다양한 생분해성 친환경 바이오플라스틱 소재가 대안이 되고 있으며, 그중 주목받고 있는 소재 중 하나는 polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) 생분해성 바이오플라스틱이다. 본 총설은 PHA 생산공정에 이용될 수 있는 해양 미생물의 산업적 활용 이점과 현재까지 밝혀진 해양미생물의 생산성을 비교하고, 이들이 산업에서 활용되기 위해 필요한 연구개발 현황에 대해 조사하였다. 조사 결과 해양미생물로부터 생산된 PHA는 석유합성 플라스틱이 보유한 다양한 물리적 특성을 띄는 중합체 소재로의 대체 가능성과, 배지 제조 시 해수를 사용할 수 있는 장점, 특별한 멸균 과정이 필요치 않은 장점, 그리고 분리 정제 과정 등에서 비용 절감의 장점을 제공할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 하지만 해양미생물의 PHA 생산성은 육상에서 분리된 상용화 균주에 비해 다소 떨어지는 효율을 보이는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 최근 선진 omics 기반 합성 미생물학 기반 기술을 활용하여, 고밀도 연속배양기술 개발, PHA 효율 증진 및 다양한 시장 요구에 필요한 생분해성 플라스틱 소재 개발이 미래 플라스틱 대체 소재 개발에 필요한 연구임을 확인하였다.

  • P. oleovorans의 유가식 배양에서 탄소원으로 octanoic acid, 질소원으로 $NH_4NO_3$를 이용한 혼합기질을 배양액의 pH 변화에 따라 공급하는 pH-stat 기질공급전략을 개발하였다. 공급기질의 탄소원/질소원 비 (C/N 비)를 변화시킴으로써 최종 균체농도, PHA 농도, PHA 함량 등을 변화시킬 수 있었으며, 최대 균체농도는 C/N 비가 10 (g octanoic acid/g $NH_4NO_3$)일 때 65 g/L, 최대 PHA 농도는 C/N 비가 20일 때 41 g/L, 최대 PHA 함량은 C/N 비가 20일 때 75%였으며 최대 PHA 생산성은 C/N 비가 10일 때 1.03 g/L/h였다.

  • Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biodegradable plastics produced by bacteria, but their use in diverse applications is prohibited by high production costs. To reduce these costs, the conversion by Pseudomonas strains of PHAs from crude sludge palm oil (SPO) as an inexpensive renewable raw material was tested. Pseudomonas putida S12 was found to produce the highest yield (~41%) of elastomeric medium-chain-length (MCL)-PHAs from SPO. The MCL-PHA characteristics were analyzed by gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry, gel permeation chromatography, and differential scanning calorimetry. These findings may contribute to more widespread use of PHAs by reducing PHA production costs.

  • Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are homo or hetero polyesters of (R)-hydroxyalkanoates accumulated in various microorganisms under growth-limiting condition in the presence of excess carbon source. They have been suggested as biodegradable substitutes for chemically synthesized polymers. Recombinant Escherichia coli is one of the promising host strains for the economical production of PHAs, and has been extensively investigated for the process development. The heterologous PHA biosynthetic pathways have been established through the metabolic engineering and inherent metabolic pathways of E. coli have been redirected to supply PHA precursors. Fermentation strategies for cultivating these recombinant E. coli strains have also been developed for the efficient production of PHAs. Nowadays, short-chain-length (SCL) PHAs are being re-invited due to its improved mechanical properties and possible applications in the biomedical area. In this article, recent advances in the development of metabolically engineered E. coli strains for the enhanced production of SCL-PHAs are reviewed. Also, medical applications of SCL-PHAs are discussed.
