Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of N-acetylneuraminic acid production, in particular to a fermentation method for producing N-acetylneuraminic acid. Background technique
[0002] N-acetyl neuraminic acid (N-acetyl neuraminic acid, NeuAc) is an acidic amino sugar with 9 carbon atoms and a pyranose structure. It is one of the main members of the sialic acid family. NeuAc is widely distributed in mammals and is an important part of cell membrane proteins. It participates in various physiological functions of the body: 1) anti-recognition effect; 2) improving infants’ intelligence and memory; 3) inhibiting leukocyte adhesion and anti-inflammatory; 4) anti-tumor , Anti-virus; 5) Anti-Alzheimer's, etc. NeuAc is widely used in the field of food, health products, cosmetics, pharmaceutical precursors and disease diagnosis, etc., and has significant market value.
[0003] At present, the main production methods of N-acetylneuraminic acid include:...
