Industrial microorganisms are microbes used to manufacture food and industrial products on a large scale. They include naturally occurring organisms, mutants selected in labs, and genetically modified organisms. Microbes are used to produce dairy, bread, alcoholic drinks, organic acids, enzymes, steroids, and help treat sewage and act as insecticides. Pure cultures contain a single microbial species while mixed cultures have many species. Isolating pure cultures involves techniques like streak plating, pour plating, and serial dilution. Desirable industrial microbes are genetically stable, easy to grow, and facilitate product extraction. Microbes are isolated from environments like soil, water, and spoiled foods.

The term isolation refers to the separation of a strain from a natural, mixed population of living microbes, as present in the environment. It becomes necessary to maintain the viability and purity of the microorganism by keeping the pure culture free from contamination.
A pure culture theoretically contains a single bacterial species. There are a number of procedures available for the isolation of pure cultures from mixed populations. A pure culture may be isolated by the use of special media with specific chemical or physical agents that allow the enrichment or selection of one
organism over another.

This document discusses various methods for isolating microbes. It begins by defining microbes and their importance industrially, environmentally, economically, and commercially. There are two main strategies for isolation - from the environment or from sites with microbes of interest. Common classical plating methods include streak plate, spread plate, and pour plate methods. Streak plating involves spreading microbes on media with an inoculating needle to thin them out into separate colonies. Newer single-cell isolation methods like laser tweezers use an infrared laser to optically trap and manipulate individual cells. Whichever method is used, aseptic technique is critical to prevent contamination.

Single cell protein (SCP) is a dried form of microorganisms like fungi, bacteria, and algae that is used as a protein source for foods and animal feeds. SCP was developed during wartime to address shortages in conventional protein sources. It has several advantages such as producing high quantities of protein from cheap waste materials through simple fermentation processes. Common challenges include removing nucleic acids from SCP to prevent health issues in humans and developing affordable production methods. SCP is now produced commercially from fungi, algae, yeasts and bacteria through large-scale fermentation and harvesting methods.

Similar to Enzymes-bacterial,industrial, production.pptx (20)
Bacterial enzymes and industrial enzymes are important for many industries. Bacterial enzymes like amylase, protease, and cellulase are produced through fermentation of bacteria like Bacillus subtilis. The production process involves selecting a microorganism, isolating it in pure culture, improving the strain, formulating growth media, fermentation, and recovering the enzymes. Industrial enzymes have various applications in industries like textiles, detergents, food, and pulp/paper. Examples are amylases for desizing fabrics and dish detergents, proteases for removing stains, and cellulases for biopolishing textiles.

JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDSSérgio Sacani
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...Sérgio Sacani
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark UniverseSérgio Sacani
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

5. • ENZYMES:
Enzymes are colloidal, organic, polymer, proteinaceous substance that acts as biocatalyst and alters the speed of
any reaction.
• Enzymes have an active site .
• This active site is the place where the substrate binds with the enzymes and holds the substrate.
• Active site has specific shape due to tertiary structure of proteins.
1. INTRODUCTION
6. • STEPS:
2. PRODUCTION OF ENZYMES
(1.) Selection of microorganism
(2.) Isolation of microorganism
(3.) Strain Improvement
(4.) Formulation of Medium
(5.)Production Process
(6.) Recovery and purification of enzymes
7. (2.1) Selection of microorganism
• Microorganism should not be pathogenic.
• Raw material should be cheap.
• Fermentation time taken should be less.
• Organism should be able to produce maximum
quantities of enzymes in short time.
8. (2.2) Isolation of microorganism
• We always get microorganism in mixture of different strains. So, isolation becomes essential from the
mixture to obtain PURE CULTURE.
Importance of pure culture:
Once purified, isolated species can be cultivated with the knowledge that only desired microorganism is being grown.
Pure culture are correctly identified.
Experiments with pure culture ensures same result regardless of how many times experiment is performed.
METHODS OF ISOLATION
STREAK PLATE METHOD
POUR PLATE METHOD
SPREAD PLATE METHOD
SERIAL DILUTION METHOD
9. STREAK PLATE METHOD
• Widely used technique used to isolate a pure strain from
single species especially bacteria.
• Streak literally means “a long, thin line”: and the streak
plate method is a microbiological culture technique
where a sample is spread in a petri dish in the form of a
long, thin line over the surface of solid media.
• The sample is picked by using different tools, mostly
using a sterile inoculating loop or swab.
• The sample is placed over a surface of sterile solid media
at one edge of the petri dish and a smear is prepared.
• Using the tool, the smear is successively streaked over
the agar medium on different patterns..
• As the streaking proceeds, the inoculum is gradually
diluted to the point where bacterial cells are separated as
individual cells or as a colony-forming unit (CFU) at a
gap of a few millimeters.
• When these inoculated plates are incubated, the isolated
bacterium or a CFU will give rise to a well-isolated
colony. This will allow us to get a pure culture as well as
describe the colony morphology of the organism
10. POUR PLATE METHOD
• The sample is either added to the Petri plate and then the
molten agar medium is poured over it, or the sample is
mixed with the molten agar medium prior to pouring.
• After pouring in the Petri plate, the plate must be swirled
quickly to properly mix the sample with the medium.
• The mixed medium is allowed to solidify and is
incubated under the suitable condition to grow the
microorganisms present in the sample.
• Following the incubation, the numbers of isolated
colonies are counted.
11. SPREAD PLATE METHOD
• Spread Plate Method is one of the widely
used culture techniques in microbiology
laboratories due to its ease and simplicity.
• The spread plate method is a microbiological
laboratory technique for isolating and
counting the viable microorganisms present
in a liquid sample by spreading a certain
volume of the sample over an appropriate
solidified culture media.
• The sample in the spread plate method must
be liquid or in suspension. Before plating,
the samples are serially diluted.
12. SERIAL DILUTION METHOD
• This method is implied for pure culture which generally doesn’t grow on solid media and grow only in liquid media.
• A microorganism that pre-dominates in mixed culture can be isolated in pure form by series of dilutions.
• The inoculum is subjected to serial dilutions in sterile liquid medium and a large number of tubes of sterile liquid medium are
inoculated with aliquots of serial dilutions.
13. (2.3) Strain improvement:
• Once the microorganism is selected and isolated,
strain improvement for optimizing enzyme
production can be done.
It is done to provide desired qualities to
microorganism.
To increase production of enzymes.
• It is performed by:
Physical Methods-
X-Rays
UV Methods
Chemical Methods
14. (2.4) Formulation of Medium:
• Culture media should contain all nutrients to support adequate growth of microorganisms
that results in adequate quantity production of enzymes.
• Ingredients of media:
Readily available
Low cost
Nutritionally safe
Growth of microorganism should be proper
• Composition of media:
a) Macronutrients- Magnesium (Mg), Sulphur(S),Potassium(K) etc.
b) Micronutrients- Iron(Fe), Zinc(Zn), Manganese(Mn) etc.
c) Carbohydrates- Sugars, Starch, Cellulose
d) Vitamins- Thiamine, Adenine
e) Amino acids
f) Hormones
g) Antibiotics
* Gelling Agent added if solid culture media is made.
15. Preparation of 1L of Culture Media:
(1.) 700 ml of tissue grade level water was taken.
(2.) A portion of above was taken and 100ml of
macronutrients.
(3.) Micronutrients was added above. Then it was sterilised
using autoclaving.
(4.) Adjust desired pH according to the growth of
microorganism.
16. (2.5) Production Process:
• It is carried out by:
(a) Submerged Culture
(b) Solid Substrate Culture
• In submerged solid media, the yield is more, and chances of infection is less.
• The solid substrate culture is historically important and used for fungal enzymes such as amylase, cellulase.
The fermentation is started by inoculating the medium.
The growth conditions (pH, temperature, O2 supply) are maintained at optimal levels.
The bioreactor system must be maintained sterile throughout the fermentation process.
Duration of fermentation is 2-7 days. Besides desired enzymes, several other metabolites are
produced. So, enzymes have to be recovered and purified.
17. (2.6) Recovery and Purification of Enzymes:
• The desired enzyme produced may be excreted into culture or may be present within the cells.
• Depending upon requirement, the enzyme is purified.
For release of intracellular enzymes:
Sonication
High pressure
Osmotic shock
Done for microbial cell disruption
Removal of Cell Debris:
Filtration or Centrifugation can be used
Removal of Nucleic acids:
They are precipitated and removed by adding Poly-Cation such as Polyamines.
Enzyme Precipitation:
Using ammonium sulphate salts and organic solvents (isopropanol, ethanol, acetone).
More enzyme Purification by:
Ion-exchange chromatography
Size-exclusion chromatography
Affinity chromatography
Enzymes is dried and stored using freeze dryers.
