Abstract: | The fermentation conditions for poly(l-lactide) (PLA)-degrading enzyme production by Amycolatopsis orientalis ssp. orientalis were statistically optimized by response surface methodology. The optimal value of the most important factors was 0.39 % PLA and 0.34 % gelatin for 2.81 days of cultivation. Under these conditions, the model predicted a PLA-degrading activity of 155.30 U/l. The verification showed the production amount of 154.2 U/l. The crude enzyme from A. orientalis ssp. orientalis showed potent PLA-degrading ability, which is efficient for the biological recycling of PLA. Up to 4,000 mg/l of PLA granule was completely degraded within 5 days at 45 °C by the crude enzyme. l-lactic acid (600 mg/l) was obtained as a degradation product of PLA after only 2 h of incubation. The results indicated that the crude PLA-degrading enzyme from A. orientalis ssp. orientalis has the potential to degrade PLA to lactic acid for the recycling of PLA industry and waste disposal. |
