| Abstract | Aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of exogenous additions of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) on microbial growth and metabolites production of Clostridium butyricum VPI 1718 strain, during crude glycerol fermentation. Preliminary batch cultures in anaerobic Duran bottles revealed that early addition of 1,3-PDO caused growth cessation in rather low quantities (15 g/L), while 1,3-PDO additions during the middle exponential growth phase up to 70 g/L resulted in an almost linear decrease of the specific growth rate (μ), accompanied by reduced glycerol assimilation, with substrate consumption being used mainly for energy of maintenance requirements. During batch trials in a 3-L bioreactor, the strain proved able to withstand more than 70 g/L of both biologically produced and externally added 1,3-PDO, whereas glycerol assimilation and metabolite production were carried on at a lower rate. Adaptation of the strain in high 1,3-PDO concentration environments was validated during its continuous cultivation with pulses of 1,3-PDO in concentrations of 31 and 46 g/L, where no washout phenomena were noticed. As far as C. butyricum cellular lipids were concerned, during batch bioreactor cultivations, 1,3-PDO addition was found to favor the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids. Also, fatty acid composition was studied during continuous cultures, in which additions of 1,3-PDO were performed at steady states. Lipids were globally more saturated compared to batch cultures, while by monitoring of the transitory phases, it was noticed that the gradual diol washout had an evident impact in the alteration of the fatty acid composition, by rendering them more unsaturated. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
