Exopolysaccharide production during batch cultures with free and immobilized Lactobacillus rhamnosus RW-9595M
Bibliographic record
Abstract
AIMS: Exopolysaccharides (EPS) were produced by Lactobacillus rhamnosus RW-9595M during pH-controlled batch cultures with free cells and repeated-batch cultures with cells immobilized on solid porous supports (ImmobaSil). METHODS AND RESULTS: Cultures were conducted in supplemented whey permeate (SWP) medium containing 5 or 8% (w/w) whey permeate. For free-cell batch cultures in 8% SWP medium, very high maximum cell counts (1.3 x 10(10) CFU ml(-1)) and EPS production (2350 mg l(-1)) were measured. A high EPS production (1750 mg l(-1)) was measured after four cycles for a short incubation period of only 7 h. Several methods for immobilized biomass determination based on analysis of biomass components (proteins, ATP and DNA) were tested. The DNA analysis method proved to be the most appropriate under these circumstances. This method revealed a high maximum immobilized biomass of 8.5 x 10(11) CFU ml(-1) support during repeated immobilized cell cultures in 5% SWP. The high immobilized biomass increased maximum EPS volumetric productivity (250 mg l(-1) h(-1) after 7 h culture) compared with free-cell batch cultures (110 mg l(-1) h(-1) after 18 h culture). CONCLUSIONS: High EPS productions were achieved during batch cultures of Lact. rhamnosus RW-9595M in SWP medium, exceeding 1.7 g EPS per litre. Repeated-batch cultures with immobilized cells resulted in increased EPS productivity compared with traditional free-cell cultures. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The study clearly shows the high potential of the strain Lact. rhamnosus RW-9595M and immobilized cell technology for production of EPS as a functional food ingredient.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
