Abstract:

To obtain a 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) producing strain with good performance, different concentrations of acetoin were added into two strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (W5/W141) producing 2,3-BD, and the changes of 2,3-BD, ethanol and glycerol production with fermentation time were determined. The optimum acetoin concentration of S. cerevisiae W5 was 12 g/L, and the concentration of 2,3-BD reached the maximum at 72 h, it was 2.54±0.03 g/L, and the conversion of glycerol and ethanol decreased by 17.6% and 23.6% respectively compared with that without addition. The optimum acetoin concentration of S. cerevisiae W 141 was 10 g/L, and the concentration of 2,3-BD reached the maximum at 72 h, it was 1.71±0.02 g/L, and the conversion of glycerol and ethanol decreased by 57.1% and 16.7% respectively. By comparison, S. cerevisiae W5 was selected as the optimum strain to provide new resources for the production of 2,3-BD by microbial fermentation.
