The present invention relates to the technical field of
fermentation, and provides
Kluyveromyces marxianus and a use thereof. The accession number of
Kluyveromyces marxianus is CCTCC No: M2023217. The original strain has good
lactic acid resistance and low pH value tolerance. The strain obtained by
mutagenesis by using the original strain has
organic acid resistance and low pH value tolerance. For example, the original strain can tolerate
lactic acid having a concentration of 5.5 wt% and can grow under the condition that the pH value is 2, and particularly, the tolerance of the original strain to
lactic acid having a concentration of 4.5 wt% to 5.5 wt% reaches 80%-90%. The original strain can effectively transform lactic acid into
bacteria and
bacteria proteins, has more efficient lactic acid utilization capacity in
corn steep liquor fermentation, can increase the additional value of the corn industry, achieves high-value utilization of low
biomass resources, reduces, as an alternative
protein, the pressure on environmental resources caused by the traditional breeding industry, meets the
protein requirements of global
population and the field of feed, and achieves economic development and
environmental protection of the
fermentation industry.
