Article Citation - WoS: 48Citation - Scopus: 59Biochemical and Thermal Properties of Ss-Galactosidase Enzymes Produced by Artisanal Yoghurt Cultures(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Üstok, Fatma Işık; Tarı, Canan; Harsa, Şebnemβ-Galactosidases, produced by pure and mixed cultures of Streptococcus thermophilus 95/2 (St 95/2) and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus 77 (Lb 77) isolated from the Toros mountain region of Turkey, were characterised with respect to their biochemical and thermal properties. Optimum pH and temperature for maximum activity were determined and these enzymes were stable in the pH range 7-9 and in the temperature range 20-37 °C, retaining 80-90% of their initial activities. The inactivation energies of β-galactosidase from Lb 77, St 95/2 and mixed culture (Lb 77 and St 95/2) were 51.3, 44.0 and 48.3 kcal mol-1, respectively. Moreover, thermodynamic (ΔG, ΔS, ΔH) and kinetic constants (Km and Vmax) were determined and effects of metal ions were investigated. As a result, these enzymes could be considered as potential candidates for lactose hydrolysis of milk and milk products. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

The ratio (St 95/2:Lb 77) of the strains and media formulation had significant effect on all responses (p < 0.001). The predicted enzyme activity (2.14 U mL-1), lactic acid (22.50 g L-1) and biomass (7.11 g L-1) production at optimum conditions were very close to the actual experimental values (2.14 U mL-1, 22.94 g L-1 and 7.86 g L-1, respectively). The optimum conditions were to use these cultures in a ratio of 1.66:1.62 (St 95/2:Lb 77) in a medium containing whey (5%), corn steep liquor (4%), potassium phosphate (2%) and peptone (2%) at 43 °C for 8 h. The associative growth provided 6.4% and 39% more β-galactosidase activity and 8.73% and 44% more lactic acid compared with the results obtained using pure St 95/2 and Lb 77 strains, respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 52Citation - Scopus: 62Solid-State Production of Polygalacturonase by Aspergillus Sojae Atcc 20235(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Üstok, Fatma Işık; Tarı, Canan; Göğüş, NihanThe effect of solid substrates, inoculum and incubation time were studied using response surface methodology (RSM) for the production of polygalacturonase enzyme and spores in solid-state fermentation using Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235. Two-stage optimization procedure was applied using D-optimal and face-centered central composite design (CCD). Crushed maize was chosen as the solid substrate, for maximum polygalacturonase enzyme activity based on D-optimal design. Inoculum and incubation time were determined to have significant effect on enzyme activity and total spore (p < 0.01) based on the results of CCD. A second order polynomial regression model was fitted and was found adequate for individual responses. All two models provided an adequate R2 of 0.9963 (polygalacturonase) and 0.9806 (spores) (p < 0.001). The individual optimum values of inoculum and incubation time for maximum production of the two responses were 2 × 107 total spores and 5-6 days. The predicted enzyme activity (30.55 U/g solid) and spore count (2.23 × 107 spore/ml) were very close to the actual values obtained experimentally (29.093 U/g solid and 2.31 × 107 spore/ml, respectively). The overall optimum region considering the two responses together, overlayed with the individual optima. Solid-state fermentation provided 48% more polygalacturonase activity compared to submerged fermentation under individually optimized conditions.
