Optimization of carotenoids production by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa (MTCC-1403) using agro-industrial waste in bioreactor: A statistical approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bio-colorants are preferred over synthetic colors as bio-colorants not only impart characteristic color to the food also contain harmless bio-active antioxidant nutrients. The present study was undertaken to investigate the potential of agro-industrial waste (Onion peels, potato skin, mung bean husk and pea pods) for carotenoid production from Rhodotorula mucilaginosa. After screening of appropriate carbon, nitrogen sources from agro-industrial waste, the fermentation conditions (pH, temperature, agitation) were optimized using Response Surface Methodology and optimum conditions were pH 6.1, temperature 25.8 ᴼC and agitation 119.6 rpm. Further, to evaluate the effect of aeration on carotenoids synthesis, fermentation was carried out in 3 L bio-reactor under optimum conditions with an air input of 1.0 vvm. Aeration causes elevation of more than 100 μg carotenoids per g of dry biomass. LC-MS of extracted pigment confirmed the presence of some other carotenoids along with β-carotene. The major carotenoid compounds were found from the investigation were torularhodin, β-carotene, and torulene.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
