Abstract

Mulberry pomace (MP) is a waste material obtained after the production of pekmez, a traditional Turkish food. This study was performed to test the usability of MP as substrate for citric acid (CA) production by Aspergillus niger MT-4 for the first time. In the study, some culture conditions were also optimized to increase CA production in MP-based medium. Moisture, total carbohydrate, water-soluble carbohydrate, protein, lipid and ash contents of MP were determined as 31.1, 47.1, 1.3, 13.4, 1.8 and 1.4%, respectively. Experiments were carried out in 250 mL flasks containing 100 mL of production medium. Optimal MP concentration for both fungal biomass (FB) and CA production was determined as 120 g/L. All concentrations of KH2PO4 added to MP-based medium were found to decrease CA production but increase FB production. Optimal concentrations of MgSO4 and (NH4)2SO4 for CA production were found as 1 and 2 g/L, respectively. The other optimal parameters were determined as an initial pH of 7.0 and an incubation period of 5 days. Under the optimized culture conditions, the amount of CA produced was determined as 24.6 g/L. On day 5, Yp/s, Yp/x and Yx/s were calculated as 0.2 g CA/g MP, 1.43 g CA/g FB and 0.14 g FB/g MP, respectively.

Özet

Dut posası (DP), geleneksel bir Türk yiyeceği olan pekmez'in üretiminden sonra ortaya çıkan bir atık maddedir. Bu çalışma, Aspergillus niger MT-4 ile sitrik asit (SA) üretimi için DP’nin substrat olarak kullanılabilirliğini test etmek için gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmada ayrıca, SA üretimini artırmak için bazı kültür koşulları da optimize edilmiştir. MP’nin nem, toplam karbonhidrat, suda-çözünür karbonhidrat, protein, lipid ve kül içerikleri sırasıyla %31,1; 47,1; 1,3; 13,4; 1,8 ve 1,4 olarak belirlenmiştir. Deneyler, üretim besiyerinin 100 ml’sini içeren 250 ml'lik erlenler içerisinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Hem fungal biyokütle (FB) hem de SA üretimi için optimum DP konsantrasyonu, 120 gr/lt olarak belirlenmiştir. DP bazlı ortama eklenen tüm KH2PO4 konsantrasyonlarının SA üretimini azalttığı fakat FB üretimini artırdığı belirlenmiştir. SA üretimi için MgSO4 ve (NH4)2SO4’ün optimal konsantrasyonları sırasıyla 1 ve 2 gr/lt olarak bulunmuştur. Diğer optimal parametreler, başlangıç pH'sı 7,0 ve inkübasyon süresi 5 gün olarak belirlenmiştir. Optimize edilmiş kültür koşulları altında, üretilen SA miktarı 24,6 gr/lt olarak belirlenmiştir. Beşinci günde, Yp/s; Yp/x ve Yx/s sırasıyla 0,2 gr SA/gr DP; 1,43 gr SA/gr FB ve 0,14 gr FB/gr DP olarak hesaplanmıştır. DP'nin SA dahil mikrobiyal metabolitlerin üretimi için fermentasyon substratı olarak kullanılabilirliği ilk kez bu çalışmada test edilmiştir.
