ENZYMES
Basic knowledge
Must satisfy the elemental requirements for cell growth and metabolites productionAdequate supply of energy for biosynthesis and cell maintenanceOptimal compositions might differ greatly depending on the aims:
cell growth vs. metabolites productionSporulation vs. fermentation (in molds and Acetomyces)
Basic knowledge (cont’d)
Might affect final fermentation products
Need to consider broth rheology:Affect oxygen transfer
Power consumption
Foaming – need anti-foaming agent?
Impurity – inhibition or toxic? affecting product recovery / purification?

Type of Medium
DefinedPure chemical components known in exact amountExpensiveMostly for research studies
Complex (Undefined)Natural substratesUnknown compositionContains necessary growth factorsLess expensive
Medium Formulation
SubstratesCheapAvailable in large quantityEasy to handlingMeet nutrient requirementsNon-toxicBuffer capabilityEx: corn starch, molasses, whey, soybean meals
Medium Formulation (cont’d)
Nutrient SupplementsSupplement to the substrateCorn steep liquor, malt extract, yeast extract, casein hydrolysate, etc.
Minerals and SaltsBuffers:
Calcium carbonate, phosphateProteins, peptides, amino acids and salts
Medium Formulation (cont’d)
InducersFor induced enzymesEx: methanol for citric acid (help product diffuse out of cell)
InhibitorsTo accumulate the metabolic intermediateEx: glycerol
Precursors:Directly incorporated into the desired productsEx: Penicillin

Industrial MediaNitrogen
BarleyBeet molasesCorn-steep liquorOat flourPharma mediaRye flourSoybean mealWhey powder
Carbohydrateo Glucose: - Glucose monohydrate
- Hydrolysed starch
o Lactose: - Pure lactose- Whey
o Starch: - Barley- Groundnut meal- Oat flour- Rye flour- Soybean meal
o Sucrose: - Beet molasses- Cane molasses- Crude brown sugar- Pure white sugar
Nutrient Requirements
Basic Growth:WaterEnergy sourceCarbon sourceNitrogen source (10% – 14% of cell weight)Minerals
Others:Growth factors; i.e. amino acids and vitaminsOxygen for aerobic growth
Energy Sources
Phototrophs:Energy from lightUse light for ATP formatione.g. Photosynthetic bacteria
Chemotrophs:Energy from oxidation of medium components:Two classes:
Autotrophs: from inorganic compoundsHeterotrophs: from organic compounds
Carbon Sources
Heterotrophs:Carbon for oxidationMostly carbohydrates (molasses, starch)Can be lipids or proteins
Autotrophs:CO2 as carbon source
Phototrophs:CO2 as carbon source

Nitrogen Sources
Nitrogen for amino acids, purines, pyrimidinesand vitamins Most microorganisms can metabolize inorganic nitrogen, i.e. ammonia or ammonium saltsBut might grow faster with organic nitrogenSome require organic nitrogenOrganic nitrogen compounds:Yeast extract, casein hydrolysate, tryptophan, peptone, corn steep liquor, soybean meal
Mineral sources
Need to be added as distinct componentsPhosphorous for ATP: phosphate (as buffer)Sulfur: sulfate, H2S, cysteinMagnesium: MgSO4
Potassium: KH2PO4, K2HPO4 (as buffer)Calcium: CaCl2, CaSO4
Sodium: NaCl (halophilic bacteria)Chloride: NaCl (halophilic bacteria)
Trace metals
Essential - act as cofactors for enzymesIron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Cobalt (Co), Manganese (Mn), Zinc (Zn), Molybdenum (Mo)Some require Selenium (Se) and Nickel (Ni)
Present as impurities in major ingredientsSome present in (tap) water

Growth Factors
Vitamins, amino acids, fatty acidsCannot be synthesized by some cellsNeed to be supplied from growth medium
OXYGENFrom O2 or airAct as electron receptor (for aerobic)20% of cell dry weight
Auxotrophy
AuxotrophsLack of one or more biosynthetic pathwayInability to synthesize some organic compounds
PrototrophsAbility to synthesize all the needed organic compounds from C sources and salts.e.g. E. coli
Fastidious Auxotrophs
Environmental Factors
TemperatureMesophiles: 25 – 40 ˚C; optimum: 30 – 37 ˚CPsychrophiles: -5 – 35 ˚C; optimum: 15 – 20 ˚CThermophiles: 40 – 75 ˚C; optimum: 45 – 60 ˚CExtremophiles: 60 – 110 ˚C
Gaseous Requirement (free oxygen)Aerobic (e.g. molds)Anaerobic (e.g., methanogens)Facultative anaerobic (can grow under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions; E. coli, LAB, Yeasts, etc.)
Environmental Factors (cont’d)
pHAcidophiles: pH 2 – 5.5
fungi
Alkalophiles: pH 9 - 12Neutrophiles: pH 5.5 – 8
Most bacteriaOptimum 6.5 – 7.5
Osmolality (Tonicity)Osmotic pressure, π = RT(W/Mw) = RTC

Environmental Factors (cont’d)
Water activity (aw)Amount of free water in the systemAw = Ps / Pw
Ps = vapor pressure of water in solutionPw = vapor pressure of pure water
Aw = MW / (Ms + MW)Mw = molar concentration of water (55 M)Ms = molar concentration of solute
Bacteria: > 0.9, G(-) > G(+); Yeasts: 0.88 Molds: 0.8 halophilic bacteria (~0.75); xerophilic fungi (~0.65); osmophilicbacteria (~0.60)
