Agroindustrial Byproducts

The present study describes the screening of different agroindustrial byproducts for enhanced production of alkaline protease by a wild and EMS induced mutant strain ofBacillus subtilisIH-72EMS8. During submerged fermentation, different agro-industrial byproducts were tested which include defatted seed meals of rape, guar, sunflower, gluten, cotton, soybean, and gram. In addition to these meals, rice bran, wheat bran, and wheat flour were also evaluated for protease production. Of all the byproducts tested, soybean meal at a concentration of 20 g/L gave maximum production of the enzyme, that is, 5.74  ±  0.26 U/mL from wild and 11.28  ±  0.45 U/mL from mutant strain, during submerged fermentation. Different mesh sizes (coarse, medium, and fine) of the soybean meal were also evaluated, and a finely ground soybean meal (fine mesh) was found to be the best. In addition to the defatted seed meals, their alkali extracts were also tested for the production of alkaline protease byBacillus subtilis, but these were proved nonsignificant for enhanced production of the enzyme. The production of the enzyme was also studied in solid state fermentation, and different agro-industrial byproducts were also evaluated for enzyme production. Wheat bran partially replaced with guar meal was found as the best substrate for maximum enzyme production under solid state fermentation conditions.

Significant Difference

Brewers’ spent grains (BSG) are underutilized food waste materials produced in large quantities from the brewing industry. In this study, solid state fermentation of BSG using Bacillus subtilis WX-17 was carried out to improve the nutritional value of BSG. Fermenting BSG with the strain WX-17, isolated from commercial natto, significantly enhanced the nutritional content in BSG compared to unfermented BSG, as determined by the marked difference in the level of metabolites. In total, 35 metabolites showed significant difference, which could be categorized into amino acids, fatty acids, carbohydrates, and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates. Pathway analysis revealed that glycolysis was upregulated, as indicated by the drop in the level of carbohydrate compounds. This shifted the metabolic flux particularly towards the amino acid pathway, leading to a 2-fold increase in the total amount of amino acid from 0.859 ± 0.05 to 1.894 ± 0.1 mg per g of BSG after fermentation. Also, the total amount of unsaturated fatty acid increased by 1.7 times and the total antioxidant quantity remarkably increased by 5.8 times after fermentation. This study demonstrates that novel fermentation processes can value-add food by-products, and valorized food waste could potentially be used for food-related applications. In addition, the study revealed the metabolic changes and mechanisms behind the microbial solid state fermentation of BSG.
