Gamma-aminobutyric acid is one of the major inhibitory neurotransmitters in the nervous system. Although gamma-aminobutyric acid is commonly synthesized by chemical methods, its microbial biosynthesis is regarded as one of the best production methods among the conventional techniques. This study aimed to optimize and model the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid from Lactobacillus plantarum subsp. plantarum IBRC (10,817) under the influence of heat and ultrasonic shock using the response surface methodology. Heat and ultrasonic shock were applied in the lag phase of bacterial growth. Heat shock variables included heat treatment, monosodium glutamate concentration, and incubation time. Also, ultrasonic shock variables were ultrasonic intensity, ultrasonic time, incubation time, and monosodium glutamate concentration. By applying the 30.9 h of incubation, 3.082 g/L of monosodium glutamate, and thermal shock of 49.958 °C for 30 min, the production of 295.04 mg/L of gamma amino butyric acid was predicted. As for ultrasonic shock, using 3.28 (g/L) monosodium glutamate, 70 h of bacterial incubation, 7.7 min ultrasound shock, and ultrasound frequency of 26.58 kHz, the highest amount of metabolite production was anticipated to be 215.19 mg/L. Overall, it was found that the actual values were consistent with the predicted values. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
