According to the growth curve and fermentation curve of P. stipi-tis, the optimal incubation duration and fermentation duration of P. stipitis mutant strain were 18 and 48 h, respectively. The cel concentration of original yeast liquid was 107 cel s/ml. After mutagenesis by UV irradiation and 60Co-γ irradiation, yeast liquid was incubated in 20 g/L xylose media for 48 h. According to the results, after UV irradiation for 45-75 s, transformation efficiency reached 0.3794 g/g, which was 74.39% of the theoretical value; after irradiation with 800-1 000 Gy 60Co-γ, transforma-tion efficiency reached 0.3165 g/g, which was 62.06% of the theoretical value. Therefore, both UV irradiation and 60Co-γ irradiation could improve the efficiency of xylose fermentation to ethanol by P. stipitis under appropriate conditions.展开更多

The rice straw hydrolysate obtained was treated with charcoal powder and the optimal condition of detoxification with charcoal powder was investigated. The results showed that the optimal condition for detoxification was the use of 2.5 grams of non-sterilized charcoal powder in 100 mL hydrolysate. The mixture was operated at pH 5.0, 30 ℃ and 160 rpm for 5 min. The detoxified hydrolysate was then used for ethanol production using P. stipitis TISTR 5806. The condition of the detoxified hydrolysate fermentation which gave maximum ethanol concentration of 21 g/L was at pH 5.0, 30 ℃ and 160 rpm for 72 h. Without detoxification, the P. stipitis TISTR 5806 could not however utilize the hydrolysate for ethanol production.展开更多
