[Isolation of the proteolytic complex from industrial waste waters from streptomycin production]
Abstract:
Dynamics of industrial biosynthesis of polyenzymic Streptomyces griseus system proteases and changes in their activities are studied in the process of streptomycin production. The method to isolate protease preparations is developed with optimization of production cycles of the stabilization, vacuum-concentration, ballast protein salting-out and lyophilization stages. The preparation is low toxic, retains 98% of the proteolytic activity at the temperature of 60 degrees C, 30 and 80%--under the effect of EDTA and urea, the activity maximum is at pH 7.0-8.0. The production technique of the preparation is estimated for its economic efficiency.

Upstream Processing
Upstream processing represents a critical phase in biomanufacturing, wherein biological systems such as microorganisms, mammalian cells, or insect cells are cultivated to produce therapeutic proteins, vaccines, enzymes, or other biologically derived products. This phase encompasses all steps from the selection and genetic manipulation of the production organism to the cultivation of cells in bioreactors under tightly controlled environmental conditions.Host Selection and Genetic OptimizationThe...
Production of Antibiotics
Penicillin, one of the earliest and most widely used antibiotics, is produced industrially by the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum. Large stirred-tank bioreactors ranging from tens to hundreds of thousands of liters maintain tightly controlled temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen conditions to support fungal metabolism and maximize antibiotic yield. Penicillin is a secondary metabolite, synthesized primarily during the stationary growth phase, which requires a carefully managed...
Downstream Processing
Downstream processing begins once fermentation is complete and involves a series of steps to recover and purify products such as acids, vitamins, antibiotics, or proteins.Cell HarvestingFor example, for intracellular protein-based products, the first step is harvesting the cells. This is typically achieved using centrifugation or filtration to separate the cells from the liquid phase.Cell Disruption for Intracellular ProductsIf the target product is intracellular, the harvested cells must be...
