The application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for chemical processing has become a hot topic now. However
few works can be found in the literature with the influence of MOFs on the bioprocesses in the environment. Cu-BTC MOF crystals were prepared and added into the fermentation process as a case study. A 0.5%(mass) rice leaven
which contains Rhizopus
a kind of microorganism used in rice wine production
was added to the rice. The product composition (glucose
ethanol and lactic acid) was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). With the increasing addition of Cu-BTC
the concentration of glucose
ethanol and lactic acid reduces
in contrast to normal fermentation process in the absence of Cu-BTC. Besides
MOF-5 also has similar effects on the fermentation process. Obviously
Cu-BTC and MOF-5 have a negative effect on the fermentation process.
