Abstract
- In this paper, the activities of signal molecule AI-2 in the sole fermentation of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and co-fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and L. plantarum were investigated. Co-fermentation of S. cerevisiae and L. plantarum was found to reduce L. plantarum to secrete AI-2. Three AI-2 quorum sensing inhibitors (DMHF (2,5-Dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3-(2H)-furanone), D-Rib (d -Ribose), and D-Gal (d -Galactosamine)) were added to the co-fermentation system to further interrupt the growth of L. plantarum. It was found that 0.2 g/L DMHF or 18.0 g/L D-Gal could mainly decrease the activity of AI-2 by 38 % and 36 %, respectively, and significantly inhibit the biofilm formation of L. plantarum. Moreover, the ethanol concentrations of the co-fermentation trials added with 0.2 g/L DMHF or 18.0 g/L D-Gal were 14 % and 103 % higher than that of the control, respectively, within 30 h of fermentation. This study provides basic data for the novel prevention of L. plantarum contamination in bioethanol production via quorum sensing control, which is meaningful for the environmental protection and the sustainable development of bioethanol industry. [Display omitted] • Co-fermentation of S. cerevisiae and L. plantarum reduced LAB to secrete AI-2. • Addition of DMHF and D-Gal reduced AI-2 activity and inhibited LAB biofilm formation. • Addition of DMHF and D-Gal significantly promoted ethanol production.
