Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lobster waste treatment, and particularly relates to a method for producing chitinase through Aspergillus niger fermentation and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The production of crayfish in my country has been expanding. In recent years, the output has reached more than 2 million tons per year. Crayfish processing enterprises of varying sizes have emerged in many places. During the processing, the heads, which account for about 65% of the weight of the shrimp, are removed and thrown away as garbage, which not only pollutes the environment but also wastes resources. Fresh shrimp heads contain about 15% chitosan, 13% crude protein, 4.50% crude fat, 8.5% nitrogen-free extract, shrimp oil, astaxanthin, various amino acids, beneficial elements and vitamins.

[0003] At present, the effective ways to utilize shrimp heads are: (1) Extracting chitosan. Process flow: shrimp heads - soaking in hydrochloric acid - washing - soaking in alkali - washing - decolorization - washing - drying - crushing - packaging - finished product. (2) Producing glucosamine hydrochloride. It is an important derivative of chitosan and is used in medicine, food and light industry. (3) Extracting astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is a carotenoid that has a strong free radical scavenging effect, can resist oxidation, enhance immunity and prevent cancer. (4) Extracting nutrients. Extract lipids and recover proteins and inorganic salts. (5) Making seasoning products. It retains the inherent freshness and fragrance of shrimp heads and can be used as various convenience foods. (6) Making biological fertilizers.

[0004] In terms of fertilizers, dry crayfish shell powder (5-8%) is combined with white wine lees powder, rapeseed meal, and straw powder, and is composted with composite microbial agents (such as thermophilic myceliophthora, Bacillus subtilis, Trichoderma harzianum, Bacillus coagulans, Bacillus polymyxa, Aspergillus oryzae, and Lactobacillus plantarum) to produce biological organic fertilizers. Straw and crayfish processing waste are used as the main raw materials, and fermented with budding Aureobasidium and Bacillus to prepare functional all-element biological fertilizers. There are inventions that use lobster shell powder, tea seed shell powder, rice straw, etc. as raw materials, and add microbial agents (Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus subtilis, lactic acid bacteria and yeast) to prepare biological organic fertilizers. Crayfish shell powder is mixed evenly with cow dung, horse dung, wood ash, wheat straw, etc., and microbial agents (Bacillus subtilis, yeast, lactic acid bacteria) are added to compost and ferment to prepare organic compound fertilizers.

[0005] In the above prior art methods of making shrimp head waste into biofertilizer, the microorganisms used in the method have limited decomposition of chitin during the fermentation cycle, and the generated chitosan oligosaccharides are relatively low, and the agricultural efficacy is not obvious. The present invention is different from most methods of making biofertilizer. It uses Aspergillus niger, which has strong chitinase production, to first grow and culture the bacteria and ferment the enzymes, then inoculate the fermentation mixture into shrimp head waste, and use chitinase to enzymolyze the chitosan in the shrimp head. At the same time, the Aspergillus niger mycelium metabolizes and produces enzymes to further decompose chitosan, so that the effect of converting chitosan into chitosan oligosaccharides is optimal. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the technical solutions adopted by the present invention to solve the problems existing in the prior art are as follows:

[0009] The natural chitin in step 1 comes from commercially available shrimp shells, and the particle size after crushing is 100-160 meshes.

[0010] The spore-producing medium in step 2 comprises, by mass fraction, 1-2% of crushed natural chitin, 2-4% of ammonium nitrate, 0.04% of K2HPO4·3H2O, 0.05% of KH2PO4, 0.005% of FeSO4·7H2O, 0.01% of MnSO4, 0.02% of MgSO4·7H2O, 2% of agar powder, and the rest is water.

[0011] In the step 3, the specific process of spore culture of Aspergillus niger is as follows: based on the spore culture medium prepared in step 2, the culture medium is sterilized, cooled, and poured into a plate, a ring of Aspergillus niger JS01 slant strain is picked, and the spore suspension is evenly dispersed in sterile water to obtain a spore suspension; the spore suspension is sucked and evenly coated on the surface of the plate culture medium; the plate is inverted and cultured at a temperature of 26° C. to 30° C. for 3d to 5d until the plate is covered with spores.

[0013] The specific process of step 5 is as follows: adding sterile water to the plate full of Aspergillus niger spores obtained in step 3 to wash off all the spores; inoculating all the washed spore seed liquid into a chitinase production culture medium; after inoculation, fermenting at a temperature of 22° C. to 26° C. and 250 rpm to 300 rpm for 3 d to 5 d; after the fermentation is completed, a mixed solution containing Aspergillus niger mycelium and chitinase is obtained.

[0014] The Aspergillus niger in step 3 is Aspergillus niger JS01, which is obtained by the following process: collecting soil from 8 points in the shrimp-rice field, mixing evenly, and taking 40 grams of mixed samples; enriching the strain with natural chitin as the only carbon source, and preparing the enrichment medium according to the following mass fractions: 1% natural chitin, 1% sodium nitrate, 0.01% FeSO4·7H2O, 0.01% MnSO4, 0.02% KH2PO4, 0.02% MgCl2, and the rest is water; adding 40 grams of the mixed soil sample to 300 mL of the enrichment medium, and culturing at 25°C and 220rpm for 5 days; preparing the screening medium according to the following mass fractions: 0.5% natural chitin, 1% potassium nitrate, 0.01% FeSO4·7H2O, 0.02% KH2PO4, 0.02% MgCl2 0.02%, agar powder 2%, and the rest is water. After sterilization, pour the plate for later use; take the enriched cultured bacterial solution, perform a series of dilutions, and spread the bacterial solutions of different dilutions on the screening culture medium plates for separation, and culture them at 25°C for 4 days. Microorganisms that can use chitin as a carbon source grow on the plates to form single colonies; select single colonies for identification, and screen out Aspergillus niger that can use chitin as a carbon source, recorded as Aspergillus niger JS01. The strain was sent to the China Center for Type Culture Collection for preservation on June 30, 2022, and the classification name is: Aspergillus niger JS01 (Aspergillus niger JS01), the preservation number is: CCTCC NO: M20221000, address: Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.

[0015] The application process of chitinase in fermentation treatment of crayfish head waste comprises the following steps: step S1, crushing the crayfish head; step S2, adding auxiliary materials and sterilizing; step S3, inoculating a mixed solution containing Aspergillus niger mycelium and chitinase; step S4, fermentation; step S5, filter pressing, and collecting the filtrate and the filter residue respectively.

[0016] After the shrimp heads are crushed in step S1, the diameter of the fragments is less than 2 mm; in step S2, the auxiliary materials added are corn starch and rice protein powder; the mass ratio of the shrimp heads (dry weight) in step S1 to the corn starch and rice protein powder in step S2 is 6-10:0.5-1.0:2-4, and the rest is water.

[0017] In step S3, the inoculation conditions are: inoculation amount 5-10% (v / v), and the fermentation conditions in step S4 are: fermentation temperature 30-35°C, rotation speed 400-600rpm, ventilation ratio 0.3-0.6v / v·m, and fermentation time 2-4d.

[0018] The present invention has the following advantages:

[0019] The present invention solves the problem that the decomposition of chitin is limited and the generated chitosan oligosaccharides are low in the process of treating shrimp head waste in the prior art. Aspergillus niger with strong chitinase production is used to first perform bacterial growth culture and enzyme production fermentation, and then the fermentation mixture is inoculated into the shrimp head waste, and the chitin in the shrimp head is enzymatically hydrolyzed by chitinase. At the same time, the Aspergillus niger mycelium is metabolized to produce enzymes, and the chitosan is further decomposed, so that the effect of converting chitosan into chitosan oligosaccharides is optimal. After the shrimp head waste is fermented according to the method of the present invention, the functional chitosan oligosaccharide content obtained in the collected filtrate reaches 65-72 g / L.
