  • Title: An aqueous-organic two-phase bioprocess for efficient production of the natural aroma chemicals 2-phenylethanol and 2-phenylethylacetate with yeast.

    Journal: Appl Microbiol Biotechnol; 2006 Jul; 71(4):440-3. PubMed ID: 16397768.
    Abstract:
    The natural aroma chemicals 2-phenylethanol (2-PE) and 2-phenylethylacetate (2-PEAc) are of high industrial relevance and can be produced from L-phenylalanine in a yeast-based process with growth-associated product formation. Due to product inhibition, in situ product removal is mandatory to obtain economically interesting concentrations. A fed-batch approach using polypropylene glycol 1200 as in situ extractant and the precursor in a saturated concentration led to the highest 2-PE productivity reported for a bioprocess so far. With Kluyveromyces marxianus CBS 600, 26.5 g/l 2-PE and 6.1 g/l 2-PEAc in the organic phase were obtained, corresponding to space-time yields of 0.33 and 0.08 g/l h, respectively.
