AI Technical Summary
The oil conversion yield of existing Mortierella alpina strains is low, resulting in high ARA oil production costs. In addition, the existing culture medium components fail to effectively increase the Sn-2 position ARA content, and there is uncertainty as to whether the microorganism can grow normally in corn steep liquor culture medium during fermentation.
A high-ARA-producing Mortierella alpina strain was screened from the soil in a high-salinity area. Through mutagenesis and acclimation treatment, it was cultured in a medium containing corn steep liquor for seed and fermentation. The fermentation conditions were optimized to increase the ARA content at the Sn-2 position, including stirring speed, ventilation volume and pH control. Finally, the oil was extracted and separated by n-butane.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of microbial oil nutritional products, and in particular relates to a Sn-2 ARA oil produced by fermentation of a mutant strain of Mortierella alpina and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] ARA (AA), scientifically known as eicosatetraenoic acid, also known as arachidonic acid, is a long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid from the Omega-6 family. ARA plays a crucial role as a phospholipid-bound structural lipid in the blood, liver, muscles, and other organ systems. Furthermore, ARA is a direct precursor of many bioactive circulating eicosanoic acid derivatives, such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), prostacyclin (PGI2), thromboxane A2 (TXA2), and leukotrienes C4 (LTC4). These bioactive substances play important regulatory roles in lipid and protein metabolism, hemorheology, vascular elasticity, leukocyte function, and platelet activation. Because the body's ability to synthesize ARA is low during infancy, ARA is considered an essential fatty acid during this period. On the one hand, providing a certain amount of ARA in the diet of infants and young children during this prime period of physical development can benefit their physical development. On the other hand, ARA deficiency can have serious adverse effects on the development of human tissues and organs, particularly the brain and nervous system.
[0003] Since infants and young children cannot synthesize ARA in their bodies and must obtain it externally, fermentation to produce high-content ARA oils has become an industrialized production method. ARA oils obtained through fermentation processes are triglyceride-type oils, and the structures of triglyceride oils are divided into Sn-1, Sn-2, and Sn-3 fatty acids. Scientific research shows that specific pancreatic lipases in the human body selectively hydrolyze Sn-1 and Sn-3 fatty acids to produce Sn-2 fatty acid monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Sn-2 fatty acid monoglycerides can be absorbed by the small intestinal mucosa and metabolized into triglycerides and phospholipids. The free fatty acids hydrolyzed from the Sn-1 and Sn-3 positions are partially absorbed and partially oxidized and decomposed into energy. Therefore, Sn-2 ARA is more easily absorbed by the human body than Sn-1 and Sn-3 ARA. Therefore, increasing the content of Sn-2 ARA in microbial oils through microbial fermentation processes, thereby enhancing the body's absorption and utilization of ARA, has become an urgent problem that needs to be solved.
[0004] Currently, the fermentation strain for arachidonic acid oil is Mortierella alpina. However, existing Mortierella alpina strains have low oil conversion yields, which has led to high costs for industrialized ARA production. Furthermore, literature reports that using glucose, yeast extract, glutamic acid and other raw materials as culture medium components does not effectively increase relative yield. As far as current technology is concerned, corn steep liquor has not yet been applied as a culture medium component in Mortierella alpina fermentation technology. Due to the many uncertainties in the microbial fermentation process, it is still unknown whether Mortierella alpina can grow normally in corn steep liquor fermentation medium. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a Sn-2 ARA oil produced by fermentation of a mutant strain of Mortierella alpina and a preparation method thereof, thereby improving the absorption rate of ARA oil in the human body and effectively reducing production costs.

[0009] (2) Select a 30W UV lamp and irradiate for 30 minutes in advance, and take the OD 660 20 mL of bacterial suspension with a pH of 0.6 to 0.8 was placed in a flat-bottomed glass culture dish and stirred with a magnetic stirrer. The linear distance between the UV lamp and the culture dish was 30 cm. The bacterial suspension irradiated for 10 to 30 seconds was appropriately diluted and spread on the inhibitory solid culture medium and cultured in the dark.
[0010] (3) Strain selection: The larger strains on the inhibition plate are selected as candidate strains for fermentation culture (the fermentation container can be a microtiter plate or a conical flask, and the fermentation volume can be minimized to improve the mutagenesis efficiency).
[0011] (4) Drawing of the standard curve for determining oil content using vanillin phosphate: Release the fermentation broth (calculate the oil content in advance); dilute the broth several times (to keep the oil content within 0-10 g / L) and measure the OD 515 .

[0054] Example 3 Comparison of fermentation results with different treatments
[0055] Following the steps of Example 2, the fermentation strains of Mortierella alpina A1.0 (CCTCC: M20222092) before and after mutagenesis in Example 1 were used to obtain the corresponding ARA oils. The Sn-2ARA content, ARA content, and total oil content of the products were tested.
[0056] According to the steps of Comparative Example 1, the mutagenized Mortierella alpina strain CCTCC: M20222092 was used as the fermentation strain, and a culture medium different from the fermentation formula of Example 2 was used as the raw material and the same fermentation control parameters were used for fermentation culture to obtain the corresponding ARA oil, and its Sn-2ARA content, ARA content, and total oil were detected.
[0057] According to the steps of Comparative Example 2, the mutagenized Mortierella alpina strain CCTCC: M20222092 was used as the fermentation strain, and the culture medium with the same fermentation formula was used as the raw material, but the fermentation process control parameters different from those in Example 2 were selected for fermentation and culture to obtain the corresponding ARA oil, and its Sn-2ARA content, ARA content, and total oil were detected.
[0058] Total oil: refers to the weight of total fat in every 100g of fermented dry bacteria.
[0059] ARA content: refers to the weight of ARA in every 100g of oil.
[0060] Sn-2 ARA content: refers to the ratio of Sn-2ARA content to ARA content.
[0061] The ARA content in the present invention can be determined by referring to the method of GB5009.168.
[0062] The test method for the Sn-2 position ARA content in the present invention is as follows:
[0063] 1) Weigh 0.1g of sample into a 10mL centrifuge tube, add approximately 30mg of lipase (porcine pancreatic lipase) and 2mL of 1mol / L tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer solution, and shake evenly. Then, add 0.5mL of 1‰ sodium cholate solution and 0.2mL of calcium chloride solution. Cover with the stopper and shake carefully. Immediately place the centrifuge tube in a 40°C water bath and shake for 1 minute. Remove the centrifuge tube from the water bath and shake vigorously at 40°C for 2 minutes. Immediately add 1mL of hydrochloric acid and 1mL of dichloromethane, shake vigorously on a shaker, and centrifuge. Transfer the organic layer with a syringe and filter through a 0.45μm filter membrane into a liquid chromatography sample for later use.
[0064] 2) Liquid chromatography: Mobile phase: acetonitrile (containing 0.1% glacial acetic acid): dichloromethane (50:50); 4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm amino column; column temperature: 40°C; flow rate: 1 ml / min; evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD); offset tube: 70°C; nebulizer pressure: 0.3 MPa.
[0065] 3) Separation of monoglycerides using a chromatographic column: Inject 40 μl of monoglyceride standard into a liquid chromatograph to determine the retention time of monoglycerides. Then inject 40 μl of sample into the liquid chromatograph and collect the monoglyceride fractions according to the retention time of monoglycerides.
[0066] 4) The collected monoglycerides were blown dry with a nitrogen blower, dissolved in 1 ml of n-hexane, and then 0.2 ml of a 2 mol / L potassium hydroxide methanol solution was added. The mixture was shaken vigorously for 2 min, allowed to stand for separation, and the n-hexane layer was transferred to a gas chromatography sample bottle for later use.
[0067] 5) Fatty acid determination was performed according to GB5009.168 method.
[0068] The assay method of total oil in the present invention is as follows:
[0069] 1) Take a certain amount of fermentation liquid, filter, dry, and crush for later use;
[0070] 2) Weigh 4-5 g (accurate to 0.001 g) of the crushed powder into a filter paper tube, and then seal the filter paper tightly to prevent the powder from leaking out.
[0071] 3) Place the filter paper tube into the extraction chamber of the direct drop fat extractor, connect a 250ml flat-bottom flask with constant weight below, add an appropriate amount (about 30ml) of petroleum ether to the flat-bottom flask, and then connect the flat-bottom flask to the condenser to keep it vertical.
[0072] 4) After reflux extraction for 2 h, the petroleum ether in the flat-bottom flask was desolventized and recovered, and the oil was then dried at a constant temperature of 105°C for 2 h and weighed.
[0073] 5) The absolute difference between the weights before and after weighing the bottle divided by the sample volume equals the total oil content in the bacteria.
[0074] Table 1 Comparison of fermentation results of strains before and after mutagenesis As can be seen from the test results in Table 1, the content of Sn-2ARA produced by the mutagenized strain is significantly higher than that before mutagenization. In addition, although the mutagenized strain was also used, the Sn-2ARA content in the ARA oil prepared in Example 2 was greatly increased. The reason may be that the corn steep liquor with an appropriate solid content not only contains amino nitrogen, but also contains other nutrients that are conducive to the growth of Mortierella alpina, and the high ventilation volume during the production process creates a good oxidizing environment for the microorganisms, promoting their accelerated metabolism and fat accumulation, while promoting the enrichment of Sn-2ARA.
[0075] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with this technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, can make equivalent substitutions or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the invention, which should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
