Popis: | Serogroup W135 polysaccharides from Neisseria meningitidis constitute a vaccine antigen against the disease caused by this bacterium. In the present study, a series of pilot scale experiments were carried out in a 300 L fermentor to enhance the final polysaccharide (PS) yield for industrial vaccine production. A three-step submerged fermentation technique significantly increased the production of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup W135 polysaccharides. Optimal conditions for polysaccharide production were as follows: ammonia nitrogen of 1.0 mg/mL, culture temperature of 36.5 °C, initial incubation concentration of 5×10 cfu-mL−1 and pH 7.0. The natural slow pH recovery of half an hour was considered the culture endpoint for the submerged fermentation, which provided a balance between polysaccharide quality and quantity. The highest PS yield reached 55 μg/mL, and the obtained W135 polysaccharide satisfied the WHO criteria for suitable antigens for industrialized vaccine production by the strategies. T... |
