RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Single-cell oils obtained from oleaginous microorganisms by using lignocellulosic waste hydrolysates are an alternative for producing biodiesel. AIMS: To isolate a yeast strain able to produce lipids from centrifuged nejayote (CN), hydrolyzed nejayote solids (HNS) and hydrolyzed sugarcane bagasse (HSB). METHODS: In order to identify the yeasts recovered, 26S ribosomal DNA was sequenced. The metabolic profile was assessed by using API20C AUX strips. The nutritional characterization of CN, HNS and HSB was performed by quantifying reducing sugars, total carbohydrates, starch, protein and total nitrogen. The biomass and lipid production ability were evaluated by performing growth kinetics of Clavispora lusitaniae Hi2 in combined culture media. RESULTS: Six oleaginous yeast strains were isolated and identified, selecting C. lusitaniae Hi2 to study its lipids production by using nejayote. The C. lusitaniae Hi2 strain can use glucose, xylose, arabinose, galactose and cellobiose as carbon sources. Cultures of C. lusitaniae Hi2 presented the best biomass (5.6±0.28 g/L) and lipid production (0.99±0.09 g/L) at 20 h of incubation with the CN:HNS media in the 25:75 and 50:50 ratios, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The use of CN, HNS and HSB for the growth of C. lusitaniae Hi2 is an option to take advantage of these agro-industrial residues and generate compounds of biotechnological interest.

AntecedentesLos lípidos obtenidos de microorganismos oleaginosos a partir de hidrolizados de residuos lignocelulósicos son una alternativa para la fabricación de biodiesel.ObjetivosAislar una levadura oleaginosa capaz de producir lípidos a partir de nejayote centrifugado (NC), hidrolizado de sólidos de nejayote (HSN) e hidrolizado de bagazo de caña de azúcar (HBC).MétodosPara identificar los aislamientos recuperados se secuenció el ADN ribosómico 26S. La capacidad metabólica se evaluó mediante tiras API20C AUX. La caracterización nutricional del NC, HSN y HBC se realizó cuantificando azúcares reductores, carbohidratos totales, almidón, proteína y nitrógeno total. La capacidad de producción de biomasa y lípidos de la cepa Clavispora lusitaniae Hi2 se evaluó mediante cinéticas de crecimiento en medios de cultivo formulados a partir de NC, HSN y HBC.ResultadosSe aislaron e identificaron seis cepas de levaduras oleaginosas, siendo C. lusitaniae Hi2 seleccionada para producir lípidos mediante el uso de nejayote. Dicha cepa puede utilizar glucosa, xilosa, arabinosa, galactosa y celobiosa como fuentes de carbono. Los cultivos de C. lusitaniae Hi2 en medio con NC y HSN (en relación 25:75) presentaron la mayor producción de biomasa, 5,6 ± 0,28 g/L; la mayor producción de lípidos, 0,99±0,09 g/L, se obtuvo con una relación 50:50 de estos residuos a las 20 h de incubación.ConclusionesLa utilización de NC, HSN y HBC para el crecimiento de C. lusitaniae Hi2 es una opción para el aprovechamiento de estos residuos y la generación de compuestos de interés biotecnológico.
