The study of production of hydrolytic enzymes for cellulose wastes treatment
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.

Waste materials utilization for preparing hydrolysates for the fermentation phase.
Vadovičová, Natália ; Hrstka, Miroslav (referee) ; Babák, Libor (advisor)
Bachelor thesis focuses on the study and comparison of different types of hydrolysis, their optimization and maximization of yields for the upcoming fermentation. Orange peel was chosen as a substrate to conduct the experiments. First, the substrate was mechanically grinded to form a suspension. Each suspension then underwent one out of the examined methods of hydrolysis. Chosen methods were physical, such as microwaves, increased temperature or ultrasound, and chemical acidic and alkaline. Combinations of both types were also examined. The last optimized method was enzymatic hydrolysis. First set of experiments was conducted using enzymes Novozymes® NS50013 and NS50010. Production of cellulase and pectinase enzymes by A. niger during solid-state fermentation that lasted 10 days was also studied. The yields of reducing sugars of all the experiments were calculated using the Somogyi-Nelson method. Enzymatic hydrolysis was proven to be the most effective using the combination of both of the enzymes for a period of 96 hours at pH = 4.5 and temperature 45 °C. Yield of the reducing sugars under these conditions reached 27,4241 ± 0,0007 gl-1.

Cultivation of carotenogenic yeasts on waste substrates usinf solid state fermentation
Rapta, Marek ; Petrik, Siniša (referee) ; Márová, Ivana (advisor)
Semi-solid fermentation is an eco - friendly technique more and more used for production of significant metabolites or enriched biomass at low entrance cost and low comsumption of water. The problem of this technique might be the right choice of microorganism able to grow and produce at low water activity. This work is a pilot study of three red yeast strains – Rhodotorula glutinis, Cystofilobasidium capitatum and Sporobomomyces roseus cultivated by semi-solid state fermentation (semi-SSF). Yeasts were cultivated in series of production media with gradual reduction of cultivation water content. Pasta and hydrolyzed pasta were used as source of sacharides, glucose served as the carbon source in control media. All studied strains we able to grow and produce observed lipidic metabolites also at low water contents. Production of carotenoids and sterols was higher in semi-solid media. Cystofilobasidium capitatum strain was identified as the best producer of carotenoids and biomass. This strain was cultivated on hydrolyzed pasta media with 40% water content. Semi-SSF seems to be an adequate technique for selection of strains having over-productive properties. Observed metabolites production in yeast cells can be optimized by choosing the appropriate production media and water activity.
