Abstract
Alteramide B (ATB) is an antifungal metabolite produced by Lysobacter enzymogenes. However, its separation method has not been explored. This study attempted to directly adsorb ATB from fermentation broth using macroporous adsorption resins (MARs)NKA resin exhibited better adsorption as well as desorption capacities. The static and dynamic adsorption characteristics were assessed to determine the following optimal separation conditions: initial fermentation broth with a pH of 12.0, 2 BV/h flow rate, 8 BV loading volume, and 6 BV 80% aqueous ethanol for elution. After a single treatment, ATB content in the final product was higher by 4.51-fold (i.e, from 12.72 ± 1.21% to 57.35 ± 3.46%), resulting in a recovery yield of 86.20 ± 4.47%. In addition, NKA resin showed superior reusability within eight cycles of adsorption/desorption. The developed method is thus a simple, efficient, and economical process for ATB separation.
