The ground-breaking approach presented here demonstrates the industrial potential of <em>Cupriavidus necator</em> H16, a chemolithoautotrophic bacterium uniquely capable of converting CO₂ into high quality SCP. The study, conducted in a custom 300-L pressurized deep-jet bioreactor optimized for extremely efficient gas-liquid transfer, provides crucial insights for scalable SCP production. It highlights the significant influence of the inoculum type on the efficiency of fermentation. Heterotrophic inoculum caused a 10-hour lag phase, which limited the efficiency of the fermentation process, while chemolithoautotrophic inoculum achieved almost immediate productivity without a lag phase. This marked difference in performance underscores the importance of inoculum selection in maximizing yield. Fermentation with chemolithoautotrophic inoculum reached 300 g L<sup>−1</sup> cell wet weight (CWW) in only 35 h – a remarkable 44 % faster than the 63 h required with heterotrophic inoculum. By repeated removal of larger broth samples, the biomass concentration could be further increased to 360 g L<sup>−1</sup> CWW, which corresponds to to 90 g L<sup>−1</sup> cell dry weight (CDW). This demonstrates the feasibility of continuous operation and scalable production. The highest gas transfer and consumption rates were observed approximately 35 h after the start of fermentation: H₂ at 0.82 kg h<sup>−1</sup>, O₂ at 4.1 kg h<sup>−1</sup>and CO₂ at 1.95 kg h<sup>−1</sup>. These high transfer rates underline the efficiency of the bioreactor in gas utilization, a critical factor for industrial-scale applications. The biomass showed a very high crude protein content of 80 % with an amino acid profile comparable to that of commercial fishmeal. This positions the SCP as a high-quality, sustainable alternative for application in aquaculture and poultry feed, meeting global protein needs while reducing environmental impact.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":15153,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biotechnology","volume":"408 ","pages":"Pages 1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144933787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents the design and implementation of a scalable AAV8 production platform, leveraging extensive in-house expertise. Three production campaigns were conducted: two at the 2-liter scale and one at the 50-liter scale. The robustness of the upstream and downstream processes was confirmed in the 2-liter campaigns, yielding consistent titers and recoveries close to 80 %. Scalability was validated, demonstrating successful translation from the 2–50 L scale without compromising titers, recoveries, or product quality with a 3-fold enrichment of full capsids. Key modifications, such as adjustments to inoculation concentration, the choice of nuclease, and the direct loading of clarified material onto affinity chromatography, were evaluated to enhance process economics. These modifications did not adversely impact the production process and resulted in significant cost savings. Noteworthy, this study highlights a three-fold enrichment of full capsids, showcasing the process's ability to deliver a higher quality product. While the process is optimized for AAV8, only the polishing step is serotype-specific. The rest of the operations can be broadly applied to other AAV serotypes with minor adjustments.
