Résumé

The presence of furfural in the hydrolysates obtained from lignocellulosic biomass sources represents an enormous challenge during their fermentation because furfural is a toxic compound for different microorganisms. Rhodosporidium toruloides-1588 can grow and accumulate lipids using wood hydrolysate as a substrate containing up to 1 g/L of furfural. In this study, the capacity of R. toruloides-1588 to grow and accumulate lipids using furfural without glucose in the media has been observed. R. toruloides-1588 degraded up to 3 g/L of furfural into furfuryl alcohol (1.8 g/L) and 2-furoic acid (0.9 g/L). Furthermore, R. toruloides-1588 accumulated 52% and 30% of its dry weight into lipids using YM media and YM media without glucose, respectively. Fatty acids such as palmitic, stearic and oleic were the most abundant. Finally, R. toruloides-1588 could potentially utilize furfural as a carbon source.
