Lipid production by Cryptococcus curvatus growing on commercial xylose and subsequent valorization of fermentation waste-waters for the production of edible and medicinal mushrooms | Semantic Scholar (2024)

A new yeast wild-type Yarrowia lipolytica isolate presented efficient growth on glycerol, and a noticeable metabolic shift towards citric acid production was observed, while simultaneously insignificant polyol quantities were produced in bioreactor trials.

Rhodosporidium toruloides strains could replace plant-based commodity oils in oleochemical-operations and/or it could be micro- and nano-encapsulated into novel food-based formulas offering healthier food-products.

An informative perspective in the n-6 fatty acid production through physiological manipulation is provided, thus leading to a prospect in viable production of the DGLA-enriched oil by the engineered strain.

It was shown that an increased C/N ratio positively affected the biomass yield and production of lipids and β-glucan, and the effect of different nitrogen sources, carbon sources and CN ratios on the co-production of intracellular lipids, carotenoids, β–glucans and extracellular glycolipids.

A guide through the history of oleaginous yeast research, an assessment of the best growth and lipid production achieved to date, the various strategies employed towards industrial production and importantly, a critical discussion about what needs to be built on this huge body of work to make producing a yeast-derived, more sustainable, glyceride oil a commercial reality are guided.

In order to produce sophorolipid-producing yeast Candida bombicola from whey, thereby lowering the lactose content and biological oxygen demand, a two-step batch cultivation process was developed including medium sterilization by filtration.

This study describes growth and lipid accumulation on glycerol in a fed-batch fermentation mode inCryptococcus curvatus, a yeast with industrial potential that can grow and accumulate lipid on a very broad range of substrates.

High concentrations of 422 g sophorolipids l−1 were produced using a two-stage cultivation process using deproteinized whey concentrate for cultivation of the yeast Cryptococcus curvatus ATCC 20509 and a simple technique for product isolation, sedimentation, could be used to harvest the oil.

R. minuta was found to be highly sensitive to inhibitors, such as furfurals and organic acids, formed under the harsh lignocellulose depolymerisation conditions, and did not grow well on biomassdepolymerised with an acid pre-treatment stage.

The ability of several mushroom species of this study to produce in notable quantities the above-mentioned added-value compounds renders these fungi worthy for further investigations.

In the current investigation, biodiesel‐derived glycerol was employed as substrate for yeast and fungal strains cultivated under nitrogen‐limited conditions in shake flasks, and lipids produced by this fungus and extracted with chloroform/methanol blend, were composed mostly of triacylglycerols, thus indicating that these solvents are adequate for triacyLglycerol extraction.
