Procedure
Approximately 2000 strains of osmophilic bacteria obtained as described above are cultured in individual microfermentors within a microfermentor array in a medium containing 20% (w/v) D-glucose, 0.1% urea, and 0.5% yeast extract at 30° C. for periods ranging from 12 hours to 5 days. The microfermentors have a working volume of 5 μl and are equipped with means to monitor biomass and oxygen concentration. Each microfermentor delivers oxygen to the interior of the microfermentor vessel via a PDMS aeration membrane. Each strain is introduced into 18 individual microfermentors using access channels. This allows 3 cultures to be terminated at each of 6 time points for each strain. The microfermentor array is maintained in a chamber as described in Example 3, which controls temperature and humidity. Biomass and dissolved oxygen concentration are monitored during the culture period, and data is accumulated using an appropriate software program. After an appropriate culture period (12, 24, 48, 72, 96, or 120 hours), all medium is removed from each microfermentor to be terminated at that time point and analyzed by HPLC to screen for a strain having the ability to produce xylitol.
