1、Production of penicillin,Learning objective: To be able to identify useful products from microorganisms To be able to identify the microorganisms used and the main stages in the production of penicillin. To be able to describe how Downstream processing is carried out to extract and purify the end-pr
2、oduct of fermentation.,Downstream Processing,Products in a fermenter are impure and dilute, so need to be purified by downstream processing. This usually involves filtration to separate the microbial cells from the liquid medium, followed by chemical purification and concentration of the product Dow
3、nstream processing can account for 50% of the cost of a process.,Antibiotics are antimicrobial agents produced naturally by other microbes (usually fungi or bacteria).The first antibiotic was discovered in 1896 by Ernest Duchesne and “rediscovered“ byAlexander Flemming in 1928 from the filamentous f
4、ungus Penicilium notatum.,The antibiotic substance, named penicillin, was not purified until the 1940s (by Florey and Chain), just in time to be used at the end of the second world war. Penicillin was the first important commercial product produced by an aerobic, submerged fermentation,When penicill
5、in was first made at the end of the second world war using the fungus Penicilium notatum, the process made 1 mg dm-3. Today, using a different species (P. chrysogenum) and a better extraction procedures the yield is 50 g dm-3. There is a constant search to improve the yield.,Antibiotics can be selec
6、tively toxic by targeting such features as the bacterial cell wall, 70S ribosomes, and enzymes that are specific to bacteria. In this way the human eukaryotic cells are unaffected.,For example:,penicillin, ampicillin, amoxycillin, methicillin Inhibits enzymes involved in synthesis of peptidoglycan f
7、or bacterial cell wall, causing cell lysis. Bacteriocidal Narrow spectrum- little effect on Gram negative cells.,Other antibiotics MO may affect: Cell membrane DNA replication Transcription Translation,Antibiotic production,There are over 10 000 different antibiotics known, but only about 200 in com
8、mercial use, since most new antibiotics are no better than existing ones. There is a constant search for new antibiotics. Antibiotics are the most-prescribed drugs and are big business. Finding a new antibiotic and getting it on to the market is a very long process and can take 15 years.,Antibiotic
9、Production Methods,Antibiotics are produced on an industrial scale using a variety of fungi and bacteria. Penicillin is produced by the fungus Penicillium chrysogenum which requires lactose, other sugars, and a source of nitrogen (in this case a yeast extract) in the medium to grow well. Like all an
10、tibiotics, penicillin is a secondary metabolite, so is only produced in the stationary phase. What sort of fermenter does it require? It requires a batch fermenter, and a fed batch process is normally used to prolong the stationary period and so increase production.,Downstream processing is relative
11、ly easy since penicillin is secreted into the medium (to kill other cells), so there is no need to break open the fungal cells.However, the product needs to be very pure, since it being used as a therapeutic medical drug, so it is dissolved and then precipitated as a potassium salt to separate it fr
12、om other substances in the medium.,The resulting penicillin (called penicillin G) can be chemically and enzymatically modified to make a variety of penicillins with slightly different properties. These semi-synthetic penicillins include penicillin V, penicillin O, ampicillin and amoxycillin.,What is
13、 the Carbon source? What is the nitrogen source? What is the energy source? Is the fermentation aerobic or anaerobic? What is the optimum temperature? Is penicillin a primary or secondary metabolite? What volume fermenter is used? Why isnt a larger fermenter used? When is penicillin produced? How lo
14、ng can it be produced for? What was the first fungus known to produce penicillin? What species produces about 60mg/dm3 of penicillin? How did scientists improve the yield still further? What is the substrate? Why is batch culture used? What are the processes involved in down-stream processing?a)b)c)
15、 Why cant penicillin be taken orally? Name the form of penicillin which can be taken orally. How does Penicillin kill bacteria? Why are Gram negative bacteria not killed by penicillin?,lactose,yeast,glucose,aerobic,25 - 27C,secondary,40 200 dm3,To difficult to aerate,40 hours after main increase in
16、fungal mass,140 hours (180 40 hours),Penicillin notatum,Penicillin chrysogenum,Genetic modification,Corn steep liquor,Secondary metabolite,Filtration of liquid,Extraction from filtrate by counter current of butylacetate,Precipitation by potassium salts,Destroyed by stomach acid,Penicillin V, ampicillin,Stops production of cell wall,Different cell wall,
