누룩으로부터 분리된 Pichia farinosa KCTC27753 균주의 발효저해제에 대한 내성

초록

The production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass using yeast will depend, at least in part, on the yeast strain’s tolerance to fermentation inhibitors. Pichia farinosa KCTC27753, which was isolated from nuruk in our laboratory, grows well at 46°C and pH 3.0. To explore the fermentation-inhibitor tolerance profile of this stress-tolerant strain, a cocktail composed of fermentation inhibitors released during biomass pretreatment (e.g., furfurals, phenolic compounds, and weak acids) was tested using a plate growth assay of P. farinosa KCTC27753 and control (KCTC27412, CBS7064) strains. The results of this assay showed that P. farinosa KCTC27753 had relatively higher growth rates than other strains in the presence of HMF, vanillin, and phenolic compounds. During fermentation, KCTC27753 produced 8.54 ± 0.51 g ethanol from 20 g glucose in the presence of an inhibitor cocktail (1.6%). By contrast, CBS7064 did not grow under the test conditions and strain KCTC27412 produced 6.78 ± 0.48 g ethanol from 19.6 g glucose.
