Popis: p-coumaric acid (p-CA) can be produced from D-glucose by an engineered S. cerevisiae strain. p-CA has antimicrobial properties and retro-inhibition activity. Moreover, p-CA is a hydrophobic compound, limiting its accumulation in fermentation broth. To overcome these issues all at once, a liquid–liquid extraction in-situ product recovery process using oleyl alcohol as extractant has been implemented in order to continuously extract p-CA from the broth. Media and pH impacts on strain metabolism were assessed, highlighting p-CA decarboxylase endogenous activity. Biphasic fermentations allowed an increase in p-CA respiratory production rates at both pH assessed (13.65 and 9.45 mg L−1.h−1 at pH 6 and 4.5, respectively) compared to control ones (10.5 and 7.5 mg L−1.h−1 at pH 6 and 4.5, respectively). Biphasic fermentation effects on p-CA decarboxylation were studied showing that continuous removal of p-CA decreased its decarboxylation into 4-vinylphenol at pH 4.5 (57 mg L−1 in biphasic fermentation vs 173 mg L−1 in control one).
