Problems solved by technology

However, due to its complex process and various influencing factors, it has not been well resolved in production.
The most fundamental measure is to use yeast strains with low fusel oil production for fermentation. However, fusel oil is an inevitable by-product of yeast in the ethanol fermentation process. Strains with high ethanol production capacity generally have a stronger ability to produce fusel oil. Therefore, It is often difficult to have both high-yield ethanol and low-yield fusel oil
At present, there are also reports of alcoholic yeast strains with low fusel oil production through mutagenesis, but there are problems such as back mutations in the brewing industry, and there are risks in production

Embodiment 1

[0039] Example 1: Screening of Yeast Strains with High Ethanol Production and Low Fusel Oil Production

[0040] Dissolve 0.5g of fermented grains in 15mL sterile saline shaker and shake for 30 minutes, then dilute, spread on a TTC primary screening plate, select red colonies, and transfer them to shake flask culture for secondary screening. The content of ethanol and fusel oil was determined by specific gravity method and HS-SPME-GC-MS, and the strains with high ethanol concentration and low fusel oil concentration were screened.

[0041] TTC primary screening culture: TTC upper layer medium (g / L): glucose 5, agar 15, sterilized at 121°C for 20 minutes, when cooled to about 60°C, add TTC solution (triphenyltetrazolium hydrochloride, final concentration 0.5), immediately pour the bottom plate. TTC lower layer: YPD agar. Cultivate at 30°C for 24 hours. After visible colonies grow, pour about 12mL of TTC upper layer medium to cover the original colonies, and then keep them at 3...

[0043] Example 2: Yeast with high ethanol production and low fusel oil production and its molecular biological identification

[0044] Molecular biological identification was carried out on the obtained yeasts with high ethanol production and low fusel oil production. The 26srDNA fragments of the strains were respectively amplified with yeast-specific classification and identification primers, and detected by gel electrophoresis. Sequencing comparison was then carried out to determine the species of the screened yeast. The strains were deposited in the General Microbiology Center of the China Committee for the Collection of Microbial Cultures. See Table 1 for the yeast species and preservation numbers.

[0047] Example 3: Determination of ethanol and fusel oil produced by bacterial strain fermentation

[0048] Taking 2 strains of wine-producing yeast used in a winery as a comparison, the yeasts with different high-yield ethanol and low fusel oil yields provided by this patent were used with a pH of 5 and a sugar content of 10 o Bx Sorghum Juice Medium, 1 x 10 6 See Table 2 for the inoculum size per mL, 30°C, 150 rpm, shake flask culture for 72-96 hours, ethanol and fusel oil concentrations.

Abstract

Screening and application of yeast with high ethanol yield and low fusel oil yield in Chinese Maotai-flavor liquor production belong to the technical field of biological engineering. The strain is any one strain selected from pichia anomala CGMCC4740, schizosaccharomyces pombe CGMCC4744, zygosaccharomyces bailii CGMCC4745, trichosporon asahii CGMCC4746, saccharomyces cerevisiae CGMCC4747, kazachstania exigua CGMCC4748, pichia fermentans CGMCC4750. The strain is separated from various Daqu, fermented grains, brewing raw materials and brewing environment of several Chinese famous distilleries; the screening method comprises the following steps: diluting distiller yeast samples, fermented grains, brewing raw materials or brewing environment substances, coating on a TTC primary screening plate, selecting a colony with an obvious red color, inoculating the colony in a shake flask for culture, performing secondary screening, determining the contents of ethanol and fusel oil of the fermentation broth by a distillation specific gravity method and HS-SPME-GC-MS respectively, screening the strain with high ethanol concentration and low fusel oil concentration. The strain is applicable to food industry and brewed wine industry.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for screening yeasts with high ethanol and low fusel oil yields, and the application of the method to screen yeasts with high ethanol and low fusel oil yields in the production of Chinese Maotai-flavor liquor and its application in food technology and brewing wine industry. It belongs to the technical field of bioengineering. Background technique [0002] Ethanol is one of the most important and main components in brewing wine. The ethanol content in Chinese liquor is as high as 40%-55% (v / v); in rice wine, it is 14%-20%; in beer, it is 2%-5%. Yeast is the main microorganism that produces ethanol, and it is also an indispensable microorganism in the brewing industry. Therefore, finding high-yielding yeast can optimize the brewing process and reduce production costs, which is of great significance in the brewing industry. [0003] Fusel oil is a secondary metabolite produced by yeast during brewing fermentation, inclu...
