RESUMO
Brown and black rice substrates were applied for sugar syrup production by the hydrolysis of raw starch degrading enzyme (RSDE) from Laceyella sacchari LP175 (300 U/mL) and commercial glucoamylase (GA, 2.0 U/mL) at 50 °C for 12 h using a simplex centroid mixture design. Results indicated that 300 g/L of substrates, consisting of 255 g/L Leum Pua glutinous rice and 45 g/L Black Jasmine rice, gave the highest sugar syrup production at 124.6 ± 2.52 g/L with 2.00 ± 0.05 mg GAE/mL of total phenolic content (TPC), equivalent to 0.42 ± 0.01 g/g rice sample and 6.67 ± 0.15 mg GAE/g rice sample, respectively. The obtained sugar syrup was used as the substrate for production of bacterial cellulose (Nata) by Komagataeibacter xylinus AGR 60 in a plastic tray at room temperature for 9 days. The fermentation medium containing 200 mL of rice syrup (25 g/L), 2.0 g of ammonium sulfate [(NH4)2SO4] and 0.4 mL glacial acetic acid yielded 1.1 ± 0.08 cm thickness with 8.15 ± 0.12 g of dry weight. The obtained bacterial cellulose from colored rice was characterized compared with bacterial cellulose from the conventional coconut juice by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) which demonstrated that the sugar syrup from colored rice could use as substrate for a novel bacterial cellulose as a healthy product in the future through microbial enzyme technological process.
