AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing Acetobacter species are weak in terms of high temperature, alcohol, pH tolerance and acid production capacity, and cannot effectively adapt to the liquid fermentation environment, which limits the brewing quality and fermentation cycle of Fujian red yeast rice vinegar.

Method used

A strain of *Acetobacter pasteurianus* QXR-11 was screened out, which has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, alcohol resistance, and acid resistance. It was applied to the brewing of Fujian red yeast rice vinegar through liquid surface static fermentation or liquid deep fermentation.

Benefits of technology

Acetobacter pasteurellium QXR-11 can grow at 60℃, 15% alcohol, and pH 2.5. It has a strong acid production capacity, which shortens fermentation time, increases yield and production efficiency, and reduces costs.

Abstract

The application discloses Acetobacter pasteurianus QXR-11, wherein the QXR-11 colony is round, flat, has neat edges and a beige color, and the colony surface is smooth and transparent; the Acetobacter pasteurianus is preserved in the China Center for Type Culture Collection, Wuhan University, Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, on August 8, 2022, and has a preservation number of CCTCC NO: M20221203. The application further discloses a screening method of the Acetobacter pasteurianus QXR-11. The application further discloses application of the Acetobacter pasteurianus in brewing of Fujian monascus vinegar and a brewing method of the Fujian monascus vinegar. The Acetobacter pasteurianus has a wide tolerance range to the environment, can tolerate high temperature, high-concentration ethanol and low-pH brewing conditions, has a good acid production effect and a high production rate, can improve yield, shorten fermentation time and improve production efficiency, and thus reduces production cost.
