METHOD FOR PREPARING HALOPHILIC BACTERIUM BIOMASS

摘要

FIELD: biotechnology, microbiology. ^ SUBSTANCE: method involves culturing halophilic microorganisms in the presence of encapsulated adsorbent and/or antioxidant up to the stationary growth phase in preparing the seeding material. Then in submerged culturing fresh medium is added by portions in the amount 1/3 of the final volume of cultural fluid followed by contacting cultural fluid with an encapsulated adsorbent and/or antioxidant, and additional feeding with dry or concentrated medium is carried out. The amount of dissolved oxygen is maintained at the level 5-10% of the equilibrium level. Invention provides increasing the level of accumulation of biomass, to enhance the specific content of bacteriorhodopsin in halophilic microorganisms biomass and the total yield of bacteriorhodopsin at the minimal content of carotinoids in biomass, and to reduce consumption of nutrient medium also. ^ EFFECT: improved preparing method of biomass. ^ 1 tbl, 10 ex
