Production of carotenoids and enriched yeast biomass on rape-seed waste substrates
 Mikheichyk, Nadzeya ; Kostovová, Iveta (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
Carotenoids belong to the group of the most widely used natural pigments with significant biological effects. Recently, microbiological production of carotenoids prior synthetic production is examined. The aim to the study was to analyse the properties of carotenogenic yeasts on waste rapeseed substrate. The main purpose of this thesis was conceived as a comparative study of three strains of carotenogenic yeasts: Rhodotorula glutinis, Sporobolomyces roseus a Cystofilobasidium capitatum. Yeasts were cultivated on different nutrient media, in which selected waste material was used as a nutritional source - rape substrate of two types with different lipid content. For all strains the growth characteristics on rapeseed substrate of the first type with a lower content of lipids were performed. All tested strains were able to use waste substrates as a source of nutrients. Most of strains produced increased amounts of carotenoids, in some cases accompanied with a relatively high production of biomass. As a potentially best producer of enriched biomass yeasts Rhodotorula glutinis and Sporobolomyces roseus were showed. They exhibited the highest production of biomass and metabolites in the media with the ratio glucose:rapeseed cake 3:1 and 1:1. The results showed that rapeseed cake can be used as a potential carbon source for growth of carotenogenic yeasts and production of carotenoids and selected lipids to some limit ratio of waste. Further processing of rapeseeed cake could be a suitable target for following study in related works.
