Production

Here all our methods according to cultivation and purification are listed.

Cultivation

Expression of Laccase

   * Chassis: Promega's E.Coli KRX
   * Medium: Autoinduction-Medium supplemented with Chloramphenicol (final concentration 60 μg mL-1)

Cultivation with E. coli KRX in shaking flask(with baffles):

   * 200 mL culture in 1000 mL shaking flask with baffles (Schott) with silicon plugs
   * Cultivation temperature:  37 °C
   * Shaking at 140 rpm
   * for characterizations: automatic sampling every 30 min

Bioreactor cultivations with E. coli KRX

To obtain higher amounts and concentration of proteins we cultivated and expressed in a bioreactor. It is possible to cultivate several liters and to control temperature, pH and pO_2.

   * Bioreactor: Braun Biostat B Bioreactor (3L), Infors Labfors Bioreactor (3L), Bioengineering NLF22 Bioreactor (7 L),
   * Autoinduction-medium with 60 mg L-1 chloramphenicol 
   * Culture volume: 3,0-6,0 L
   * Starting OD600: 0.1 - 0.2
   * Airflow: 5 NL/min
   * pO2-Control: 30 % airsaturation (controlled with stirrer cascade starting with 200 rpm)
         o pO2=100% calibration with 300rpm
   * pH: 7.0 (controlled with 2M phosphoric acid and 2 M NaOH)
   * Antifoam: BASF pluronic PE-8100
   * Harvest after 12-13 h
