Zusammenfassung: | Levan is a high-valued β-(2,6)-linked fructan with promising physicochemical and physiological properties and has diverse potential applications in the food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry, but its commercial availability is still restricted to the relatively high costs of production. In this study, a strain identified as Microbacterium sp. XL1 was isolated from soil and highly produced exopolysaccharide (EPS). HPLC, FTIR and NMR spectroscopy revealed XL1-EPS is a levan-type fructan connected by β-(2, 6) linkages. SEM, DLS and TGA-DSC analysis showed that XL1-EPS processed high morphological versatility, narrow size distribution in its solutions and excellent thermal stability. The levan yield reached 83.67 ± 4.06 g/L with corresponding productivity of 3.49 ± 0.17 g/L/h and a conversion yield of 39.8 ± 1.9 % using sucrose (210 g/L) as substrates under the optimal cultivation conditions concluded by the response surface methodology (RSM). More strikingly, the XL1 strain also has multi-type fructanases to generate levanbiose, kestose, DFA IV and other L-FOSs. These results suggest Microbacterium sp. XL1 is a promising strain to produce levan and can provide various levan/inulin-degrading enzymes to create a great diversity of FOSs. |
