PRODUCTION OF BIOMATERIALS FROM FOOD WASTE PRODUCTS BY ANTARCTIC
BACTERIAL STRAINS
★ ★★ ★ ★
Background of the invention
The present application concerns the field of microbiology and in particular a process for the production of biomaterials using non-genetically modified isolated and verified bacterial strains starting from food waste products.
Background
Polyhydroxyalkanoates are known to be produced by bacteria, including the genera Bacillus, Rhodococcus and Pseudomonas. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are thermoplastic polyester polymers synthesised by bacteria through the fermentation of sugars or lipids. These materials are biodegradable and are used in the production of bioplastics.
The metabolic pathways leading to the bacterial production of PHA are known, which, like other bio-materials, remain trapped within the bacterium and thus require purification processes to obtain the final product (Mozejko-Ciesielska & Kiewisz, 2016).
Bacillus strains genetically modified with PhaC and PhaR genes for the production of bioplastics are further known (Gabriel J. McCool, Maura C. Cannon. PhaC and PhaR Are Required for Polyhydroxyalkanoic Acid Synthase Activity in Bacillus megaterium Journal of Bacteriology Jul 2001, 183 (14) 4235-4243; DOI: 10.1128/JB.183.14.4235-4243.2001), in which the product remains trapped in the bacterium.
Italian patent application No. 102019000014121 describes an in vitro process for the preparation of metabolites by Marinomonas ef1 or Rhodococcus, in particular silver nanoparticles and fluorescent dyes.
Italian patent application No. 102019000024493 describes the use of Marinomonas ef1 bacterial strains for the bioremediation of

US Patent Application No. US2014234944A1 describes the use of engineered Rhodococcus to produce PHA starting from ethanol.
The production of carotenoids by Antarctic bacteria such as Planococcus sp.ANT_H30 and Rhodococcus sp. ANT H53B has been disclosed (Styczynski M. et al., Molecules 2020, 25, 4357; doi:10.3390/molecules25194357).
Acyclic carotenoids with a C30 aglycone, the xylosilesters of diapolycopenedioc acid A-C and methyl 5-glucosyl-5,6-dihydro- apo-4,4'-lycopenoate were isolated from the new Gram-negative bacterium Rubritalea squalenifaciens, belonging to the phylum Verrucomicrobia, as well as from the Gram-positive bacterium Planococcus maritimus belonging to the class Bacilli, phylum Firmicutes (Shindo K. and Misawa N., Mar. Drugs 2014, 12).
The production of hydrocarbons by bacteria is known in the art (Wackett L.P. (2010) Aliphatic Hydrocarbon Producers. In: Timmis K.N. (eds) Handbook of Hydrocarbon and Lipid Microbiology. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540- 77587-4 48); in particular, the synthesis of alkanes or alkenes by various microorganisms has been described (Wang Weihua, Lu Xuefeng, 2013, Microbial Synthesis of Alka(e)nes, Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 1, 1-10, DOI=10.3389/fbioe.2013.00010), however, the production of solid hydrocarbons, such as paraffins and waxes, by bacteria has not been reported in the literature.
Prior art closer to the invention
The international patent application, publication no.

maximum length of 5 μm or more and whose astaxanthin content based on the total composition is 40% by mass or more, wherein the method comprises: an extraction step wherein a culture obtained by culturing a carotenoid-producing microorganism including astaxanthin is extracted using one to three-carbon atom alcohol, an extract separation step wherein an extract is obtained by separating the microorganism and the extract, a concentration step wherein a concentrate is obtained by concentrating the extract 1.25 to 20 times in terms of amount of liquid, a crystallization step wherein crystals of the carotenoid-containing composition are produced in the concentrate, and a crystal separation step wherein the crystals are separated and obtained from the mother liquor, wherein the microorganism may belong to the genera Agrobacterium, Brevibacterium, Paracoccus, Brevundimonas and Erythrobacter, and algae belonging to the genus Haematococcus, yeasts belonging to the genus Phaffia and the like. Actually, only strain E-396 belonging to the genus Paracoccus is exemplified and specifically described.

The elemental analysis showed that the new biomaterial is composed of 72% C and 10.5% H, and in the remaining 17.5% there is bromine as evidenced by XRF analysis.
XRF analysis showed the signal for bromine at 13.9 Kev.
IR analysis showed the presence of CH2, CH3 stretching from the bands present between 2916 and 2850 cm-1, =C-H stretching from the band at 3010 cm-1, C=C stretching at around 1600 cm-1, C-H scissoring at 1425 cm-1, and two bands at 718 and 695 cm-1 due to C-Br stretching.
CNMR analysis showed that the base structure of the new biomaterial is composed of at least 22 carbon atoms. The signal at 35 ppm is attributable to the carbon bonded to the bromine atom, the signals in the range 127-131 ppm are attributable to the sp2 carbons and the other carbons are those within the chain; the signal at 23 ppm is related to the deuterated chloroform CDC13.
The HNMR analysis revealed the presence of signals at 5.4 ppm that are attributable to sp2 carbons, while the signal at 2.8 ppm is related to the proton of the carbon near a bromine atom.
The SEM analysis showed a lamellar structure with overlapping leaflets.step
The agar diffusion test showed antibiotic properties against a Pseudomonasstrain: 5 mg of the material produces an inhibition halo of about 5 mm.
The product obtained after various analyses turns out to be a polyunsaturated hydrocarbon similar to paraffin.
Two bacterial strains capable of producing biocellulose in the presence of fructose were isolated: Brevundimonas ef1 and Bacillus ef1.
Two processes have been carried out to synthesise biocellulose: in both cases the first step consists in growing the bacteria in culture medium, or nutrient broth.
The nutrient broth had the following composition:
Meat extract 1.0 (g/L)
Peptone 5.0 (g/L)
Yeast extract 2.0 (g/L)
Sodium chloride 5.0 (g/L) final pH 6.8 + 0.2 at 25°C
Beef extract and peptone provide amino acids, nitrogen, carbon, vitamins and minerals for the growth of the organisms.
Yeast extract is a source of vitamins, particularly B group vitamins. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance of the medium.
In the second step, bacteria incubated at 22°C at 2000 rpm rotation. Once the optical density of about 2 OD at 550 nanometres is reached, the culture is diluted with sea H20 (50% of the final volume) and added with 1.5-2% fructose, and further incubated under stirring at 22°C.
In the third step, a yellow/orange pigment is produced after 24 hours. The pigment is recovered by two centrifugation steps:
Centrifugation at 1000g to sediment the bacteria and collect the supernatant containing the pigment
Centrifugation at 10000 g to remove particulate matter.
The aqueous part containing the pigment is dried under nitrogen atmosphere, redispersed in absolute Ethanol (about 40 ml) and analysed by UV-Vis and MS.
The pigment was found to be a mixture of B-cryptoxanthin and lycopene/B-carotene.
After about 10 days, from the same culture, the production of orange-coloured flakes or spherules occurs in the same culture medium.
The culture is incubated at 80 °C to eliminate bacteria.
The material composed of flakes and spherules is collected and washed with sterile double-distilled water and then dried in an oven at 40°C.
A dry portion of the material is analysed with FTIR.
It was found that the material is biocellulose.
A dry portion of biocellulose is treated with absolute ethanol (approx. 40 ml) and the pigment is extracted for subsequent analysis by UV-Vis and MS.
The pigment was found to be a mixture of B-cryptoxanthin and lycopene/B-carotene.
The synthesis of biocellulose from fructose and biopolymers from soybean oil paves the way for the recycling of food waste, including fruit and oils. In addition, the co-synthesis of carotenoids makes it possible to optimise a production process: starting from a single substrate, two products are obtained that can be used in a single application, such as beauty masks containing carotenoids.
