Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bio-fermentation technology, specifically to a culture medium containing corn steep liquor hydrolysate and its uses, as well as a method for producing single-cell protein. Background Technology
[0002] Corn steep liquor (CSL) is a byproduct of corn starch production and can be prepared by wet milling. It contains abundant peptides, polysaccharides, proteins, and various amino acids, such as arginine, glutamic acid, histidine, phenylalanine, alanine, and β-phenylethylamine.
[0003] Corn steep liquor can be used as a water-soluble plant protein and water-soluble vitamin, a compound fertilizer additive, a fermentation nitrogen source, and a fiber feed. It is the cheapest nitrogen source, rich in nutrients, and a promoter of microbial anabolic metabolism. Currently, corn steep liquor is widely used as a nitrogen source in biopharmaceuticals, amino acid fermentation, and enzyme preparations. In microbial fermentation, to reduce fermentation costs, corn steep liquor can be used to replace or partially replace other nitrogen sources, such as soybean meal hydrolysate, yeast powder, and peptone.
[0004] However, due to the complex composition of corn steep liquor, which is entirely in polymer form, it cannot be utilized by microorganisms when used as a fermentation raw material, thus requiring processing. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention aims to solve the problem of complex composition of corn steep liquor in the prior art, and provides a culture medium that uses corn steep liquor hydrolysate obtained by a specific method as a component, which can make full use of the nutrients in corn steep liquor, promote rapid fermentation of microorganisms and efficient synthesis of single-cell proteins.
[0006] In one aspect, the present invention provides a culture medium comprising corn steep liquor hydrolysate;
[0007] The method for preparing the corn steep liquor hydrolysate includes:
[0008] Corn steep liquor and sodium hydroxide are provided;
[0009] After hydrolyzing the corn steep liquor with the sodium hydroxide, the pH was adjusted to neutral to obtain the corn steep liquor hydrolysate.
[0010] In some embodiments, the final concentration of sodium hydroxide in the hydrolysis treatment is 1-4% by mass. If the final concentration of sodium hydroxide is too low, the hydrolysis effect on corn steep liquor will be poor; if the final concentration of sodium hydroxide is too high, the alkalinity will be too strong, which can easily lead to the destructive or even inactivation of proteins and peptides in the corn steep liquor hydrolysate. Specifically, the final concentration of sodium hydroxide is 1%, 2%, 3%, or 4% by mass.
[0011] In some embodiments, the pH of the hydrolysis treatment is 9-11. If the pH of the hydrolysis treatment is too low, the corn steep liquor cannot be hydrolyzed; if the pH of the hydrolysis treatment is too high, it can easily lead to the breakdown or even inactivation of proteins and peptides in the corn steep liquor hydrolysate. Specifically, the pH of the hydrolysis treatment is 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, or 11.
[0012] In some embodiments, the hydrolysis treatment lasts for 18-24 hours at a temperature of 62-70°C. If the hydrolysis time is too short, the hydrolysis will be incomplete; if the hydrolysis time is too long, it will unnecessarily extend the production time. Appropriate temperature can promote molecular motion and improve the hydrolysis effect. If the temperature is too high, water will easily evaporate, and the sodium hydroxide concentration will be too high, leading to the destructive or even inactivation of proteins and peptides in the corn steep liquor hydrolysate. Specifically, the hydrolysis treatment time is 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, or 24 hours.
[0013] In some embodiments, the culture medium further comprises at least one of anhydrous glucose, yeast extract, casein peptone, magnesium sulfate, thiamine hydrochloride, betaine, ammonium sulfate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and disodium hydrogen phosphate.
[0014] In some embodiments, the culture medium is a primary seed culture medium containing 50-80 g / L of the corn steep liquor hydrolysate, 1-2% by mass of anhydrous glucose, 0.6-1.5% by mass of yeast extract, and 1.5-3% by mass of casein peptone.
[0015] In some embodiments, the culture medium is a secondary seed culture medium containing 80-120 g / L of the corn steep liquor hydrolysate, 1-3% by mass of anhydrous glucose, 0.6-2% by mass of yeast extract, 1.5-3.2% by mass of casein peptone, 0.8-2.4% by mass of magnesium sulfate, and 0.2-0.8% by mass of thiamine hydrochloride.
[0016] In some embodiments, the culture medium is a fermentation medium comprising 100-200 g / L of the corn steep liquor hydrolysate, 1-3% by mass of anhydrous glucose, 0.6-4% by mass of yeast extract, 1.5-5% by mass of casein peptone, 0.8-3.2% by mass of magnesium sulfate, 0.6-1.4% by mass of thiamine hydrochloride, 0.5-1% by mass of betaine, 3.5-6.8% by mass of ammonium sulfate, 5-7% by mass of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and 2-4% by mass of disodium hydrogen phosphate.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, by adding the corn steep liquor hydrolysate to the primary seed culture medium and the secondary seed culture medium, the microorganisms can adapt to the composition of the corn steep liquor hydrolysate in advance, induce the microorganisms to produce enzymes that utilize the corn steep liquor hydrolysate, and enable the microorganisms to adapt more quickly in the fermenter culture.
[0018] In another aspect, the present invention provides the use of the culture medium in fermentation production.
[0019] In some implementations, the fermentation production is the fermentation production of single-cell proteins.
[0020] In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for producing single-cell protein, comprising:
[0021] Provide the bacterial strain and the culture medium provided by the present invention;
[0022] The bacterial strain was cultured using the culture medium to obtain single-cell protein.
[0023] In some implementations, the culture includes:
[0024] The strain was inoculated into a primary seed culture medium. When the cell OD value was 4.2-6.8, it was inoculated into a secondary seed culture medium at an inoculation rate of 3-7%. When the cell OD value was 12-16, it was inoculated into a fermentation culture medium at an inoculation rate of 5-10% for cultivation.
[0025] The primary seed culture medium contains 50-80 g / L of corn steep liquor hydrolysate, 1-2% by mass of anhydrous glucose, 0.6-1.5% by mass of yeast extract, and 1.5-3% by mass of casein peptone.
[0026] The secondary seed culture medium contains 80-120 g / L of corn steep liquor hydrolysate, 1-3% by mass of anhydrous glucose, 0.6-2% by mass of yeast extract, 1.5-3.2% by mass of casein peptone, 0.8-2.4% by mass of magnesium sulfate, and 0.2-0.8% by mass of thiamine hydrochloride.
[0027] The fermentation medium comprises 100-200 g / L of corn steep liquor hydrolysate, 1-3% by mass of anhydrous glucose, 0.6-4% by mass of yeast extract, 1.5-5% by mass of casein peptone, 0.8-3.2% by mass of magnesium sulfate, 0.6-1.4% by mass of thiamine hydrochloride, 0.5-1% by mass of betaine, 3.5-6.8% by mass of ammonium sulfate, 5-7% by mass of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and 2-4% by mass of disodium hydrogen phosphate.
[0028] In some implementations, during the culturing step in the fermentation medium, when the cell OD value is ≥80, 200 g / L of the corn steep liquor hydrolysate is added to the fermenter to provide sufficient nutrition for the cells to grow further.
[0029] In some implementations, during the culturing step in the fermentation medium, when the cell OD value is ≥200, carbon and nitrogen sources are added to the fermenter to provide sufficient carbon and nitrogen sources for cell growth.
[0030] In some preferred embodiments, the added carbon source is selected from at least one of acetic acid, formic acid, and glucose, and the added nitrogen source is selected from at least one of sterilized 30% by mass ammonium sulfate solution, 20% by mass ammonium acetate solution, and 40% by mass urea solution.
[0031] In some implementation schemes, when the bacterial cell OD value is ≥200, carbon and nitrogen sources are added to the fermenter, with a carbon-to-nitrogen ratio of (6-10):1. This carbon-to-nitrogen ratio is more suitable for nutrient utilization and absorption by the bacteria. If the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio is less than 6, there is less carbon and more nitrogen, leading to slow bacterial growth. If the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio is greater than 10, there is more carbon and less nitrogen, resulting in rapid bacterial growth but lower nitrogen utilization and lower synthesis of single-cell protein. Specifically, the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio is controlled at 6:1, 7:1, 8:1, 9:1, or 10:1.
[0032] In some implementations, during the culturing step in the fermentation medium, the carbon source concentration of the fermentation broth is controlled at 4-15 g / L, and the nitrogen source concentration is controlled at 2-7 g / L. When the carbon / nitrogen source concentration is too low, the cells exhibit slow growth; when the carbon / nitrogen source concentration is too high, cell growth is inhibited. Specifically, the carbon source concentration is controlled at 4 g / L, 5 g / L, 6 g / L, 7 g / L, 8 g / L, 9 g / L, 10 g / L, 11 g / L, 12 g / L, 13 g / L, 14 g / L, or 15 g / L; and the nitrogen source concentration is controlled at 2 g / L, 3 g / L, 4 g / L, 5 g / L, 6 g / L, or 7 g / L.
[0033] In some embodiments, the strain is selected from at least one of Yarrowia lipolytica, Schizochytrium, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
[0034] In one specific implementation scheme, the *Yarrowia lipolytica* strain was purchased from the China Industrial Microbial Culture Collection Center (CICC 32291); the *Schizochytrium* strain was purchased from the U.S. Type Culture Collection Center (ATCC 20888); and the *Pseudomonas aeruginosa* strain was purchased from the China Industrial Microbial Culture Collection Center (CICC 10351).
[0035] In one specific implementation, the method for producing the single-cell protein includes the following steps:
[0036] (1) Inoculate the strain into sterilized primary seed culture medium and culture it in a shaker at 32°C and 180 rpm for 16-18 hours. When the OD value is 4.2-6.8, primary seeds are obtained.
[0037] (2) Inoculate the primary seeds into the sterilized secondary seed culture medium at an inoculation rate of 5% and culture for 8-12 hours. When the OD value is 12-16, the secondary seeds are obtained.
[0038] (3) Add the secondary seed to the fermentation medium at an inoculation rate of 5%-10%. Take samples every hour to measure the OD, acetic acid and nitrogen source concentrations. Control the acetic acid concentration to 4-15 g / L and the nitrogen source concentration to 2-7 g / L. After 2 consecutive hours, when the OD value increases by less than 10 per hour, harvest the fermentation broth, centrifuge, wash with water and dry to obtain single-cell protein (bacterial cells).
[0039] In step (3), a feed medium, carbon source, and nitrogen source are added according to the required acetic acid concentration and nitrogen source concentration. The feed medium contains 200 g / L of the corn steep liquor hydrolysate. The added carbon source is acetic acid, and the added nitrogen source is a sterilized 30% by mass ammonium sulfate solution. The carbon-nitrogen ratio of the added carbon source and the added nitrogen source is controlled to be (6-10):1.
[0040] This invention utilizes sodium hydroxide to hydrolyze corn steep liquor, which disrupts the macromolecular structure of the liquor, breaks down large polymer bonds, and transforms it into smaller organic molecules. These smaller molecules are more readily absorbed by microorganisms through cell walls, while simultaneously increasing the content of free amino acids and soluble proteins, resulting in a nutrient-rich corn steep liquor hydrolysate. The inventors discovered that many basic amino acids in corn steep liquor with an isoelectric point (pH greater than 7) (such as lysine and arginine) are more soluble in a sodium hydroxide environment. Sodium hydroxide hydrolysis allows more organic matter, soluble proteins, and amino acids to precipitate rather than dissolve in acidic environments or enzymatic environments. Therefore, using sodium hydroxide to hydrolyze corn steep liquor is significantly superior to traditional acid or enzymatic hydrolysis methods.
[0041] The corn steep liquor hydrolysate provided by this invention is low in cost and high in organic nitrogen, making it a superior nitrogen source. When this corn steep liquor hydrolysate is used as a component of the culture medium to cultivate bacterial strains, the problem of poor stability of corn steep liquor is avoided, allowing the nutrients in the corn steep liquor to be fully utilized by the strains, promoting rapid fermentation of the cells and efficient synthesis of single-cell proteins.
[0042] The method for producing single-cell protein provided by this invention, through a specific culture medium composition, facilitates rapid fermentation of the cells and efficient synthesis of single-cell protein. Furthermore, by employing specific feeding methods and controlling the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio during fermentation, rapid fermentation of the cells can be achieved in a short time, further improving the production efficiency and yield of single-cell protein. Detailed Implementation
[0043] The present invention will be further illustrated below with specific embodiments. These embodiments are merely illustrative and do not limit the scope of the invention. Unless otherwise specified, the raw materials and ingredients used in the following embodiments are commercially available products, and the methods and conditions used are known and conventional in the art.
[0044] The term "inoculum volume" refers to the ratio of the volume of seed culture transferred to the volume of the culture system after inoculation. For example, an inoculum volume of 5-10% means that the volume fraction of the seed culture is 5-10%. In this document, when "inoculum volume" is mentioned, it refers to the volume fraction. For the sake of brevity, it will not be elaborated on in detail.
[0045] In this invention, the term "OD value" refers to the OD value of the fermentation broth, which is obtained by ultraviolet spectrophotometry. Specifically, the OD value of the fermentation broth at 600 nm is detected using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer (Alpha-1106, Shanghai Spectrum Instruments Co., Ltd.).
[0046] In the following specific embodiments of the present invention, the methods for testing dry weight, yield, and crude protein content are as follows:
[0047] (1) Dry weight of single-cell protein: in g / L
[0048] Weigh 1.00L of fermentation broth, centrifuge at 8000 rpm for 10 min to obtain bacterial cells, add 1L of water to resuspend evenly, and centrifuge again at 8000 rpm for 10 min to obtain wet bacterial cells, and weigh their mass as m1; take 5.000g from m1 and dry it at 103±2℃ according to the method of national standard GB / T6435-2014 "Determination of Moisture in Feed" to obtain dry bacterial cells, and weigh their mass as m2 (accurate to 4 decimal places).
[0049] Dry weight of bacteria (DCW) = m² / 5.000 × m¹ / 1.00
[0050] (2) Yield: Unit is g / (L·h)
[0051] Yield = Dry weight of single-cell protein ÷ High-density fermentation time (fermentation cycle).
[0052] (3) Crude protein content
[0053] According to the national standard GB / T 6432-2018 "Determination of Crude Protein in Feed - Kjeldahl Method", the crude protein content (mass fraction) was obtained by digestion, ammonia distillation, and titration.
[0054] In the following specific embodiments of the present invention, Yersinia lipolytica was purchased from the China Industrial Microbial Culture Collection Center, accession number: CICC 32291; all components of the culture medium were commercially available chemicals.
[0055] In the following specific embodiments of the present invention, the method for determining the endpoint of high-density fermentation is as follows: if the increase in OD value per hour is less than 10 for two consecutive hours, it indicates that the cell growth is very slow, and it is determined that no further growth will occur, the fermentation endpoint is reached, and the fermentation liquid is obtained by transferring the fermentation liquid to the tank.
