    Notes: Cybernetic models, developed earlier by the authors, have been evaluated experimentally for the growth of Klebsiella oxytoca in batch cultures using mixed substrates from glucose, xylose, arabinose, lactose, and fructose. Based entirely on information procured from batch growth on single substrates, the models accurately predict without further parameter fitting, diauxic growth on mixed substrates, automatically predicting the order in which the substrates are consumed. Even triauxic growth on a mixture of glucose, xylose, and lactose is predicted by the model based on single substrate data. Growth on glucose-fructose mixtures appears to need a slightly modified strategy for cybernetic variables.

    Notes: The cybernetic framework developed by Ramkrishna and co-workers has been expanded to include the effects of cellular maintenance energy requirements on biomass levels in slow-growing, carbon-substrate-limited cultures. A simple structured model, based on the existence of distinct key enzymes for growth and maintenance functions, is presented. Comparisons of the model with experimental data for the growth of Klebsiella oxytoca in constant fed-batch culture on glucose, fructose, arabinose, and xylose show good agreement. In addition, perturbed fed-batch culture experiments indicate that slow-growing cultures respond less rapidly to a removal of the growth limitation than do faster-growing ones. The possibility of a growth-rate dependent “critical resource” is discussed.

    Notes: It is known that 2,3-butanediol is a potentially valuable chemical feedstock that can be produced from the sugars present in hemicellulose and celluose hydrolysates. Klebsiella oxytoca is able to ferment most pentoses, hexoses, and disaccharides. Butanediol appears to be a primary metabolite, excreted as a product of energy methabolism. The theoretical maximum yield of butanediol from monosaccharides is 0.50 g/g. This article describes the effects of pH, xylose concentration, and the oxygen transfer rate on the bioconversion of D-xylose to 2,3-butanediol. Product inhibition by butanediol is also examined. The most important variable affecting the kinetics of this system appears to be the oxygen transfer rate. A higher oxygen supply favors the formation of cell mass at the expense of butanediol. Decreasing the oxygen supply rate increases the butanediol yield, but decreases the overall conversion rate due to a lower cell concentration.

    Notes: During the oxygen limiting growth of Klebsiella oxytoca, the xylose metabolism may be considered as consisting of three components: conversion to 2,3-butanediol by “fermentation,” oxidation to carbon dioxide by respiration, and assimilation to cell mass. The amount of energy required for the assimilation of cell mass is assumed to determine the extent to which the two energy producing reactions occur. The activity of each energy producing pathway is also determined by the availability of oxygen and by the energy yield of each pathway. These relationships can be quantified by equating the ATP required for growth and maintenance to the ATP produced by the energy producing reactions. The resulting equation for butanediol production appears similar to the Luedeking and Piret model where the parameters α and β are related to the maximum cell yield from ATP and the maintenance energy requirement. These parameters were estimated from 14 batch fermentations, and the resulting simulation was used to describe the effects of the oxygen transfer rate and the initial xylose concentration on the yields and rates of the 2,3-butanediol fermentation.

    Notes: Bacillus polymyxa produces (R, R)-2,3-butanediol from a variety of carbohydrates. Other metabolites are also produced including acetoin, acetate, lactate, and ethanol. The excretion of each metabolite was found to depend on the relative availability of oxygen to the culture. When the relative oxygen uptake rate was high, enhanced yields of acetate and acetoin were noted. At an intermediate oxygen availability, the butanediol yield was maximal. When the availability of oxygen was more restricted, higher yields of lactate and ethanol occurred. The cells appeared to regulate themselves such that energy generation is optimal subject to the constraint that the cells do not produce more reducing equivalents than can be oxidized by the electron transport system. The dependence of each product yield on the relative oxygen availability was determined, and this knowledge was used to carry out a fed-batch fermentation that attained a final butanediol concentration of over 40 g/L in 50 h.

    Notes: A cybernetic model to predict the low-growth-rate behavior of bacteria in mixed-substrate environment is presented. Using only growth and maintenance parameters from single-substrate experiments, the model accurately predicts the simultaneous substrate utilization and maintenance energy effects in constant fed-batch cultures of Klebsiella oxytoca. The robustness of the model was examined more rigorously by perturbing glucose-limited fed-batch cultures with additions of arabinose, xylose, and fructose. In all cases, reasonable agreement of the model prediction with the experimental data was observed.

    Notes: A wild-type strain of Klebsiella oxytoca growing aerobically in batch culture has exhibited intermittent or oscillatory growth while growing on lactose at concentrations on the order of 1 g/L or less. In two-substrate experiments, preferred growth on glucose followed by growth on lactose also produced oscillatory growth behavior during the lactose growth phase at lactose concentrations of 1 g/L or less. Only oscillations in cell density have currently been observed. Alkalinization of the medium during growth on lactose indicated the presence of lactose active transport. The observed intermittent growth was reduced or removed during growth on lactose after preferred growth on galactose or in a medium containing 50 mM NaCl. Results suggested that the presence of an intracellular energy source or a sufficient ΔpH buffer may alleviate growth inhibition when transport and growth processes compete for essential energy resources during growth on lactose.
