    Notes: [Auszug] Alcanivorax borkumensis is a cosmopolitan marine bacterium that uses oil hydrocarbons as its exclusive source of carbon and energy. Although barely detectable in unpolluted environments, A. borkumensis becomes the dominant microbe in oil-polluted waters. A. borkumensis SK2 has a streamlined genome ...

    Notes: Summary Nocardia corynebacteroides SM1 synthesized di- and pentasaccharide lipids when grown on n-alkanes, especially under nitrogen limitation. Optimum conditions for their formation were pH 6.4–6.8, NaNO3 as nitrogen source and yeast extract supplementation of the nutrient. A study of the time course of whole glycolipid production was carried out in a 20-l bioreactor. After extraction of the culture broth with organic solvents three main components could be isolated. Both 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic and elemental analysis studies led to the identification of one novel pentasaccharide lipid and two trehalose corynomycolates. The oligosaccharide lipid showed significant surface and interfacial active properties.

    Notes: Summary During screening for biosurfactants among marine, n-alkane-utilizing bacteria, low- and high-molecular surface-active substances were detected. The marine bacterial strain MM1 was found to synthesize a novel glycolipid that has not so far been cited in the literature. Both 1H, 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic and positive ion fast atom bombardment mass spectrometer studies led to the identification of a glucose lipid consisting of four 3-OH-decanoic acids, which are linked together by ester bonds. The lipophilic moiety is coupled glycosidically with C-1 of glucose. The glucolipid reduced the surface tension from 72 mN/m to 30 mN/m while the minimum interfacial tension towards n-hexadecane was lowered to values smaller than 5 mN/m.

    Notes: Abstract Like other hydrocarbon-oxidising bacteria, rhodococci respond to the presence of alkanes by producing biosurfactant molecules to improve their ability to utilise these hydrophobic compounds as growth substrates. In the rhodococci these surfactants are predominantly glycolipids, the majority of which remain cell-bound during unrestricted growth. Most work has been done on the trehalose mycolates formed by Rhodococcus erythropolis, but nitrogen- limited conditions lead to the production of anionic trehalose tetraesters also. As surfactants, these compounds, whether purified or in crude form, are able to reduce the surface tension of water from 72 mN m-1 to a low of 26, thus making them among the most potent biosurfactants known. They are also able to reduce the interfacial tension between water and a hydrophobic phase (e.g. n- hexadecane) from 43 mN m-1 to values less than one (Table 1). Biosurfactants have about a ten- to 40-fold lower critical micelle concentration than synthetic surfactants. Such properties suggest a range of industrial applications, where a variety of surface-active characteristics are appropriate. Interest in biosurfactants as industrial chemicals results from the toxicity of many petrochemical-derived surfactants. Currently world-wide surfactant production is on a very large scale, and the demand for them is increasing. However, the drive towards less environmentally damaging chemicals makes biosurfactants attractive as they have lower toxicity. The reason they have not achieved a significant market share is the cost of production, which is considerably higher than for synthetic surfactants. This problem is being addressed using several strategies. An approach where there is great scope for improvement with the rhodococci is an understanding of the genetic basis of glycolipid production, which is largely unknown. They may find applications in the near future in the environmental remediation industries, where the requirement for purified molecules is of less importance. This review summarises knowledge of the chemistry, biochemistry and production of Rhodococcus surface-active lipids. Where they have been used, or there is potential for use, in industrial applications is discussed.

    Notes: Whole cells of Escherichia coli B 10 having high tryptophan synthetase activity were used directly as an enzyme source to produce L-tryptophan from indole and L- or D,L-serine. This strain is tryptophan auxotrophic, which is tryptophanase negative and, in addition, L- and D-serine deaminase negative under production conditions. To avoid inhibition of tryptophan synthetase by a high concentration of indole, nonaqueous organic solvents, Amberlite XAD-2 adsorbent, and nonionic detergents were used as reservoirs of indole in the reaction mixture for the production of L-tryptophan. As a result, different effects were observed on the production of L-tryptophan. Particularly, among the nonionic detergents, Triton X-100 was very efficient. Using Triton X-100 for production of L-tryptophan from indole and L- or D,L-serine by whole cells of Escherichia coli B 10, 14.14 g/100 mL and 14.2 g/100 mL of L-tryptophan were produced at 37°C for 60 h.

    Notes: Escherichia coli B 10, which has high activity of tryptophan synthetase, was grown in a 50-L batch culture in order to determine in which growth phase the cells have the highest specific tryptophan productivity. Accordingly, whole cells of the stationary phase were used for immobilization in polyacrylamide beads. After immobilization, these immobilized cells had 56% activity of tryptophan synthetase compared with that of free cells. First, the properties of immobilized cells were investigated. Next, discontinuous productions of L-tryptophan were carried out by using immobilized cells. In discontinuous production of L-tryptophan by the batch, the activity remaining of immobilized cells was 76-79% after 30 times batchwise use. In continuous production of L-tryptophan with a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR), the activity remaining of the immobilized cells was 80% after continuous use for 50 days. The maximum productivity of L-tryptophan in this CSTR system was 0.12 g tryptophan L-1 h-1.

    Description / Table of Contents: The Microbial Hydroxylation of Some 14α-H-Cardenolides1 is chemically transformed to compounds 2, 5b, 8b, 11, and 14b by well known methods. These are the educts for microbial hydroxylation by Curvularia lunata, Cunninghamella blakesleena, and Aspergillus ochraceus. Generally α-attack on the steroids is observed only, by preference of the C-11-, C-17- and C-14-positions.

Diese dienen als Substrate für die mikrobiologische Hydroxylierung mit Curvularia lunata, Cunninghamella blakesleeana und Aspergillus ochraceus. Allgemein wird dabei lediglich ein Angriff auf die α-Seite der Steroide beobachtet, vorzugsweise in den Positionen C-11, C-17 und C-14.

    Notes: Am 24. März 1989 verunglückte der Supertanker „Exxon Valdez“ an der Küste Alaska“. 40000 Tonnen Rohöl strömten ins Meer. Die ökologischen Folgen sind derzeit noch nicht abzuschätzen. Verheerende Auswirkungen für die unmittelbar betroffene Region waren die Folge. Die Höhe des Gesamtschadens steht zur Zeit noch nicht fest.Der Einsatz von künstlich erzeugten Dispergatoren ist eine der Möglichkeiten zur Schadensbekämpfung. Diese haben allerdings eine hohe Eigentoxizität und belasten den Lebensraum zusätzlich.Im Meer sind stets Bakterien vorhanden, die Öl abbauen. Dabei bilden sie dispergatorähnliche Substanzen, die sich jedoch durch eine geringere Eigentoxizität auszeichnen.Der nachfolgende Artikel behandelt die Bildung und Wirkungsweise dieser „Biotenside“ sowie ihre Bedeutung für den mikrobiellen Ölabbau im Meer. Er wirft die Frage nach einer Anwendung zur Schadensminimierung auf.
