Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of microbial technology, and in particular to the application of Klebsiella extracellular enzyme Eyj-1 in reconstituted tobacco concentrate. Background Technology

[0002] Reconstituted tobacco using the papermaking method is a tobacco product made from tobacco materials (tobacco stems, tobacco dust, tobacco flakes, etc.) as the main raw materials. Through processes such as extraction, pulping, concentration, papermaking, coating, and drying, it plays a vital role in the development of cigarette brands and the stable improvement of cigarette quality.

[0003] Reconstituted tobacco concentrate is made by extracting tobacco leaves with water and then concentrating it, providing the main aroma source for reconstituted tobacco. However, reconstituted tobacco often has problems such as excessively high content of macromolecules and low aroma content, resulting in excessively high viscosity during coating and insufficient aroma in the reconstituted tobacco prepared after coating.

[0004] Some microorganisms produce enzymes that can effectively degrade macromolecules in concentrates and transform them into aroma components, making them an important means of improving concentrate quality. Microorganisms can secrete numerous enzymes, divided into intracellular and extracellular enzymes. Extracellular enzymes mainly include some macromolecular degrading enzymes and a small number of enzymes with aroma-enhancing functions, but also include some enzymes that have no beneficial effect on concentrate quality or even have adverse effects. Therefore, it is necessary to purify the enzymes produced by microorganisms that have a positive effect on concentrate quality, thereby improving concentrate quality more efficiently. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an application of Klebsiella extracellular enzyme Eyj-1 in reconstituted tobacco concentrate. Klebsiella HNYJ-1 produces extracellular enzymes, which are prepared by a simple separation and purification method and used to treat reconstituted tobacco concentrate to improve its quality.

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A method for preparing the Klebsiella extracellular enzyme Eyj-1 includes the following steps:

[0008] (1) Preparation of seed solution:

[0009] A single colony of Klebsiella sp. HNYJ-1, deposited at the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC No. 24327), was inoculated into LB liquid medium using an inoculation loop and cultured in a shaker at 25-40℃ and 100-200 rpm for 6-36 hours to obtain the seed culture.

[0010] (2) Microbial enzyme-producing fermentation:

[0011] The seed liquid was mixed with 10% concentrated reconstituted tobacco leaf concentrate at a volume ratio of 0.5%-10%:1, and cultured at 25-40℃ and 100-300r / min for 12-72h to obtain seeds;

[0012] Add pre-sterilized tobacco powder under sterile conditions, adding 0.1g of tobacco powder per milliliter of seed liquid, and continue to place it at 25-40℃ and shake at 100-300r / min for 12-72h to obtain fermentation liquid;

[0013] (3) Preparation of extracellular enzymes:

[0014] The fermentation broth was centrifuged at 4000 r / min and 4℃ for 20 min to remove the precipitated bacterial cells, yielding crude extracellular enzyme. The crude extracellular enzyme was mixed with anhydrous ammonium sulfate at a mass ratio of 1:0.2–0.4 at 4℃, and the precipitate was removed to obtain supernatant A.

[0015] Supernatant A is mixed with anhydrous ammonium sulfate at a mass ratio of 1:0.4 to 0.8 at 4°C. The precipitate is removed, and the supernatant is retained to obtain supernatant B.

[0016] Supernatant B was separated using a DEAE-FF anion exchange column with a equilibration buffer of 20 mmol / L Tris-HCl (pH 8.5). After elution began, the fraction that did not adhere to the column was collected and dialyzed to obtain the extracellular enzyme HNYJ-1, which was named Eyj-1.

[0017] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the culture conditions of the original seed liquid in step (1) are: 30°C and 150 r / min in a shaker for 12 h.

[0018] Preferably, in the above technical solution, in step (2), 0.1g of tobacco powder is added to each milliliter of seed liquid, and the liquid is placed at 30°C and shaken at 220r / min for 24 hours to obtain fermentation liquid.

[0019] Preferably, in the above technical solution, in step (3), the extracellular enzyme crude enzyme and anhydrous ammonium sulfate are mixed at a mass ratio of 1:0.25.

[0020] Preferably, in the above technical solution, in step (3), the supernatant A and anhydrous ammonium sulfate are mixed at a mass ratio of 1:0.5.

[0021] Application of Klebsiella extracellular enzyme Eyj-1 in reconstituted tobacco concentrate.

[0022] A flavoring concentrate was prepared using the Klebsiella extracellular enzyme Eyj-1. The preparation method is as follows:

[0023] The reconstituted tobacco leaf concentrate was mixed with the extracellular enzyme Eyj-1 at a mass ratio of 1:0.5% to 1:10%, and allowed to stand for 1-12 hours at any temperature between 40℃ and 50℃, with slow stirring every 0.5 hours during the period to allow it to react fully and obtain the aroma-enhancing concentrate.

[0024] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the concentrate and the extracellular enzyme Eyj-1 are mixed at a mass ratio of 1:1% and allowed to stand for 3 hours.

[0025] Preferably, in the above technical solution, the content of protein and pectin in the flavor-enhancing concentrate is significantly reduced, and the viscosity is decreased. The content of alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and phenols is increased, thereby improving the smoking quality of the tobacco leaves.

[0026] The above-described technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] The processed concentrate of this application shows a significant overall improvement in aroma content, a significant reduction in protein and pectin content, and a 16.19% decrease in viscosity. The content of alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and phenols is increased, resulting in an 18.15% increase in total aroma components, effectively enhancing the smoking quality of tobacco leaves.
