Abstract

To improve the production of ε-poly-L-lysine(ε-PL) by Streptomyces sp.M-Z18,the strategy of Lglutamic acid feeding during fermentation was developed with the help of optimization of L-glutamic acid supplement concentration and time.Combined with fed-batch fermentation using glycerol as carbon source,the ε-PL production and productivity was reached to 31.65 g / L and 4.36 g /(L·d) respectively in 174 h.Compared with the fermentation without L-glutamic acid addition,the data were increased by 49.2% and 43.9%,respectively.These results demonstrated that the feeding of L-glutamic acid during fermentation was a novel approach for improve ε-PL fermentation level by ε-PL producing strains.
