Abstract

To optimize co-production of dextran and mannitol from sucrose by Leuconostoc mesenterides ATCC 13146, a batch culture fermentation was conducted by using various concentrations of sucrose and initial culture pHs. The production of dextran and mannitol showed a growth-associated pattern. The highest yields of both dextran and mannitol were obtained at pH 6.0 and $10\%$ (w/v) sucrose. They could be easily separated by using alcohol fractionation. Maximum yields of dexran and mannitol were 0.45 and 0.35 of the consumed sucrose, respectively. Overall productivities of dextran and mannitol were 1.47 and 0.37 g/l/h, respectively.
