KT2440 is emerging as a promising microbial host for biotechnological industry due to its broad range of substrate affinity and resilience to physicochemical stresses. Its natural tolerance towards aromatics and solvents qualifies this versatile microbe as promising candidate to produce next generation biofuels such as isobutanol. In this study, we scaled-up the production of isobutanol with from shake flask to fed-batch cultivation in a 30 L bioreactor. The design of a two-stage bioprocess with separated growth and production resulted in 3.35 g L. Flux analysis revealed that the NADPH expensive formation of isobutanol exceeded the cellular catabolic supply of NADPH finally causing growth retardation. Concomitantly, the cell counteracted to the redox imbalance by increased formation of 2-ketogluconic thereby providing electrons for the respiratory ATP generation. Thus, partially uncoupled ATP formation from the availability of NADH. The quantitative analysis of intracellular pyridine nucleotides NAD(P) and NAD(P)H revealed elevated catabolic and anabolic reducing power during aerobic production of isobutanol. Additionally, the installation of micro-aerobic conditions during production doubled the integral glucose-to-isobutanol conversion yield to 60 mg g while preventing undesired carbon loss as 2-ketogluconic acid.

Ice wine is produced from concentrated grape juice obtained by the natural freezing and pressing of grapes. The high sugar content of this juice has an impact on fermentation. To investigate the impact of the initial sugar concentration on the fermentation of ice wine, the initial sugar concentration of Vidal ice grape juice was adjusted to 370, 450, 500 and 550 g/L by the addition of glucose.
