Removal of proteases from Clostridium perfringens fermented broth by aqueous two-phase systems (PEG/citrate)

Abstract: In order to reduce the toxicity of Clostridium perfringens fermentation broths used in vaccine preparation, we developed two-phase aqueous systems for removal of toxin-activating proteases. Removal of the proteases inhibits the conversion of protoxin to active toxin. In order to establish the conditions under which the phase separation occurs, binodal curves, formed by poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and sodium citrate, were investigated at different values of pH and PEG molar mass. A 2(4)-experimental design was … Show more

“…In order to establish the conditions under which the phase separation occurs, binodal curves, formed by PEG and sodium citrate, were investigated at different values of pH and PEG molar mass. After statistical experimental planning, it was found that simultaneous increase in PEG molar mass and decrease in citrate concentration remarkably improved the removal factor, whereas the protease removal yield showed an opposite trend, 50 confirming previous results reported by Porto and co-workers. 49 Finally, bromelain (enzymatic complex obtained from pineapple, Ananas comosus, fruits and stem) was investigated by thermoseparation using by poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-poly(propylene oxide) (PPO)-poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO)block copolymers aqueous solutions.…”

“…The observation that adenovirus particles partitioned and concentrated preferably to the top phase can be explained by the excluded volume effect , common in high mass molecules partition in these systems . Adenoviral particles have large diameters (approximately 100 nm ), and a greater exclusion effect seems to occurs in TX‐114 abundant systems in our results as schematized in Fig.…”

“…From E. coli fermented broth or cell lysate, the extraction of proteins, virus, plasmid DNA (pDNA) and enzymes has been reported . ABS‐based protocols can also be applied to recover toxin A and enzymes, from Clostridium perfringens , virus from Salmonella typhimurium, pigments from Spirulina platensis, enzymes from Penicillium restrictum, Penicillium janthinellum , and Bacillus sp, antibiotics from Streptomyces aureofaciens and pharmaceuticals from Streptomyces clavuligerus , . Yeast is also popular for biomolecules synthesis, and there are ABS studies showing the recovery of enzymes from S. cerevisiae and proteins from P. pastoris and bakers' yeast …”
