1results about How to "Increase mutagenic effect" patented technology

This invention provides a method for mutagenesis of *Aspergillus cristatus* and its application, belonging to the field of microbial technology. The mutagenesis method provided by this invention includes the following steps: first, pretreating *Aspergillus cristatus* suspension by mixing it with a compound enzyme solution; then culturing the pretreated *Aspergillus cristatus* in a culture medium supplemented with a mutagen; the compound enzyme solution consists of a cell-lysing enzyme solution and a β-glucanase solution; the mutagen includes ethyl methanesulfonate and / or diethyl sulfate. This invention can improve the efficiency of the mutagen entering the bacterial cells, thereby enhancing the mutagenesis effect; the mutant strains obtained by mutagenesis, compared to the original strain, exhibit more vigorous colony growth on plates, larger average diameter, denser hyphae, and / or better morphological stability. Furthermore, it can achieve ideal mutagenic selection pressure at lower mutagen concentrations and shorter treatment times, reducing sublethal damage, which is beneficial for the recovery and screening of mutant strains and improving the efficiency of mutagenesis experiments.
