The objective of this study was to evaluate the β-glucosidase activity in the non-conventional yeasts under cellulose, glucose and sucrose substrates. The participation of the enzyme β-glucosidase and its contribution to the enzymatic degradation of tannins is known. Within the classification of tannins are ellagitannins, molecules of gallic acid and ellagic acid, which are considered as nutraceutical compounds due to the properties that they present and that they can be used in the design of food and new drugs, synthesis of materials with antimicrobial capacity. The extracellular β-glucosidase activity was mainly presented in the Candida and Pichia strains, being the glucose and sucrose media the most capable for inducing the activity that showed maximum values with P. pastoris in glucose (0.1682±0.00 µmol/min mg protein), and C. utilis in cellulose (0.1129±0.1349 µmol/min mg of protein), and sucrose (0.0657±0.0214 µmol/min mg protein). Additionally, I. terricola and P. kluyvery stood out in a qualitative cellulose degradation approach measured by Congo red method (9.60±0.04 mm and 9.20±0.05 mm respectively). These indicate that P. pastoris and C. utilis have potential as β-glucosidase producers, especially when growing under complex carbon sources for biomass conversion, new biofuels production and polyphenol degradation with more manageable bioreactor process. |
