Utilisation of plant origin waste
Habáníková, Kamila ; Šťavíková, Lenka (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
This thesis describes properties and utilization and specifies the composition of organic plant waste produced during industrial processing. By cultivation of specific micro-organisms from this waste material it is possible to produce enzymes that have further beneficial industrial utilization. The experimental part of this thesis deals with the production of enzymes from the applied waste material grape pomace with the help of chosen micro-organisms. Waste, its processing and utilization is and always will be a key issue in our society.

Habáníková, Kamila ; Flodrová, Dana (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
Production of cellulase and polygalacturonase by Aspergillus niger and Aureobasidium pullulans was studied in submerged (SmF) and solid state fermentation (SSF) systems. Substrates used in fermentation systems were mandarin peels and grape pomace. With Aspergillus niger used on grape pomace as a sole carbon source, cellulase production was detected after 72 hours in SSF and after 24 hours in SmF systems. The activity of cellulase per gram of substrate was higher in a submerged than in a solid state fermentation system. The longer time for higher polygalacturonase production was necessary in submerged fermentation systems and polygalacturonase activity was higher in SmF. The SSF fermentation with mandarin peels as a sole carbon source was similar, the highest detected activity of cellulase was determined after 72 hours. Different production of polygalacturonase was observed on mandarin peels in SmF systems. A comparison of enzyme productivities on grape pomace and mandarin peels showed that polygalacturonase activity per gram of substrate is highest in SmF system with mandarin peels as a sole carbon source. With Aureobasidium pullulans used on grape pomace as a sole carbon source, cellulase production was detected after 48 hours in SmF and SSF fermentation systems. The activity of cellulase per gram of substrate was higher in solid state system than in a submerged fermentation system. Longer time for higher polygalacturonase production was necessary in both fermentation systems. Polygalacturonase activity was higher in SmF. The SSF fermentation with mandarin peels as a sole carbon source was similar, the highest detected activity of cellulase was determined after 48 hours. Different production of polygalacturonase was observed on mandarin peels in SmF systems. A comparison of enzyme productivities on grape pomace and mandarin peels showed that polygalacturonase activity per gram of substrate is highest in SmF system with mandarin peels as a sole carbon source. For both systems and both substrates manganese-dependent peroxidase was detected for the first time. Differences in the enzyme synthesis by Aspergillus niger and Aureobasidium pullulans depend on both the substrates used as well as on the fermentation system.
The employment of wastes from food production
Hurčíková, Andrea ; Babák, Libor (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
The waste from agricultural and food industry are accessible in large quantity anywhere in the whole world nowadays. Most of these wastes include cellulose (30 - 40 %), hemicellulose (20 - 40 %) and lignine (10 - 20 %). Therefore these waste materials have wide use as the substrates for the microbial growth and the production of the enzymes. The microorganisms are able to use organic compounds from the wastes as the source of energy for the growth and carbon for synthesis of cellular biomass [24]. Wheat and rice straw are possible to use as the substrates for cultivation of the microorganisms and following production of the enzymes. In this thesis the utilization of the wastes from food industry for the production of the enzymes by the microorganisms was studied. We observed utilization of wheat straw as source of energy for growth of tested microorganisms and investigated their ability for the production of oxidoreductase (laccase). The optimalization of growth conditions of Aureobasidium pullulans was proceeded. Further the activity of laccase was studied. Milled wheat straw was used as the substrate. The cultivation was done in the thermoregulator at the temperature of 27°C. The activity of laccase was not found in this thesis. Petri dishes were contaminated by three unknown microoganisms during optimalization of growth of Aureobasidium pullulans. One of them produced laccase in cultivation with straw.

Řezáčová, Barbora ; Flodrová, Dana (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
The study of production of hydrolytic enzymes dealt with the production of cellulase and polygalacturonase by two microbial strains - Aspergillus niger and Aureobasidium pullulans. The enzymes were produced in solid-state fermentation system. The wheat straw and sugar beet pulp were used as a substrate. The substrates were moistened by water, mineral solution or by medium with glucose. The effect of mineral solution and glucose on production of these enzymes were monitored during cultivation. The highest production of polygalacturonase was achieved by Aspergillus niger during cultivation on sugar beet pulp moistened by mineral solution. The highest production of cellulase was achieved by Aspergillus niger during cultivation on wheat straw moistened by medium with glucose.
The employment of waste paper to microbial production of cellulases
Peterek, Miroslav ; Flodrová, Dana (referee) ; Omelková, Jiřina (advisor)
Study of the employment of waste paper to microbial production of cellulase was carried out using Aspergillus niger cultivation on carbon sources that have been waste office paper and cardboard, humidified by no – carbon medium or distiled water. Cultivation took place in the SSF way in Erlenmeyer flasks and columns. Concentration of extracellular proteins, cellulase and protease activity for selected samples were monitored. It was found that the most advantageous method of cultivation in terms of cellulase activity production is the cultivation in the column washing by no – carbon medium in three day intervals.
Stanovení aktivity průmyslově významných enzymů produkovaných mikroorganismy izolovanými z potravinového odpadu
Lymarenko, Sofiia
The microbiome and the produced enzymes play an important role in processing food waste. Bacillus licheniformis is one of the representatives of microflora in composting and producer of industrially important hydrolytic enzymes: protease, lipase and cellulase. As part of the thesis, enzymatic activity using spectrophotometric methods was determined in seven strains of B. licheniformis for a period of 96 to 192 hours. In all seven strains, cellulase, protease and lipase activity was detected, which agrees with previously published literature. The highest cellulase activity determined by two methods was recorded for strain 3A-52 (1 U/ml) and 1A-52 (1.5 U/ml) after 24 hours of cultivation. The pH optimum for cellulase activity was 7, and the temperature optimum 50 °C to 60 °C. The maximum protease activity was detected after 120 and 144 hours of cultivation in two strains: 3A-52 (1.3 U/ml) and 3D-42 (1.4 U/ml). During the optimization, it was found that the pH optimum was 9 to 11 and the temperature optimum was 40 to 45 °C depending on the tested strain. The maximum lipase activity was approximately 0.7 U/ml after 144 hours of cultivation in 4D-41 and 3D-42. The temperature optimum was found at 50 to 60 °C and the range of pH optimum for this activity was very wide depending on the studied strain. For the strains with the highest enzymatic activity, a growth curve was determined, where the highest cellulase activity corresponded to the time of transition of the bacterial culture from the exponential phase to the stationary phase, and the highest lipase and protease activities were found later only at the transition from the stationary phase to the death phase. Strain 3A-52 and 3D-42 showed the highest activity for all three monitored enzymes. Subsequently, these strains isolated during composting can be used to produce enzymes industrially.
Study of enzymes secreted by oomycete Pythium oligandrum
Hrdinová, Karolína ; Ryšlavá, Helena (advisor) ; Kubíčková, Božena (referee)
Pythium oligandrum is one of the non-pathogenic microorganisms of Pythium species which found its use as biological control agent. The main modes of action of this oomycete lie in inducing the plant immunity and in mycoparasitism of pathogenic fungi and fungus-like organisms. The oomycete attacks the pathogens by secretion of hydrolytic enzymes into the environment. In the first part of this bachelor's thesis, activity of hydrolytic enzymes endo-1,3-β-glucanase, cellulase, chitinase and proteases was observed in a commercial product based on Pythium oligandrum, called Polyversum-Biogarden. It was conclu- ded that the direct hydrolysis of phytopathogens is probably not the main mechanism of this product because the activity of glycosidases increased only after six hour-long incubation of the Polyversum-Biogarden in water and the proteolytic activity was not detected. In the second part of the bachelor's thesis, properties of proteases secreted by orga- nism Pythium oligandrum were studied. The highest proteolytic activity was observed at pH 6,5. Ovomucoid acted as an inhibitor of secreted proteases. The stability of pro- teases was lowered by SDS, detergents present in liquid soaps and by a solution of a solid soap or NaOH. Only the highest concentrations of urea lowered the activity of proteases....
