Growth Related Production of Poly-ß-Hydroxybutyrate by Azotobacter chroococcum Soil Isolate/Mutant using N, P, and Cane Molasses
Abstract: Soil isolate Azotobacter chroococcum ABR 51 produced a large amount of Poly-ß-Hydroxybutyrate (PHB) during growth in a chemically defined medium using cane molasses as carbon source. Nutritional requirements and cultural conditions for the optimal production of PHB by this strain under laboratory conditions were determined using inorganic, complex organic nitrogen sources, phosphate, and cane molasses. Among conventional carbon sources, (2% w/v) sucrose was found to be the preferred carbohydrate source …

Gluconic acid production from cane molasses using Aspergillus carneus
Abstract: Gluconic acid is a multifunctional organic acid, non-volatile, non-corrosive, non-toxic, readily biodegradable, with environmentally friendly properties. In this study, gluconic acid was produced from the treated molasses using Aspergillus carneus strain under the submerged fermentation. The parameters were studied using the four-factor, three-level Box-Behnken design using using Design Expert ® version 11. The acid produced was characterized using the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The optimum values of the parameters were …
