Description

Technical Field

[0002] Biocatalysis is widely used in industrial production due to its mild reaction conditions, high specificity, high catalytic efficiency, and avoidance of problems such as heavy metal residues and environmental pollution. Currently, whole-cell catalysts are commonly used in biocatalysis. However, in actual industrial production, whole-cell catalysts suffer from poor storage stability, leading to cell autolysis and reduced catalytic performance over long periods. Furthermore, most cell catalysts have poor organic tolerance, failing to meet the demands of industrial production.

[0098] Example

[0099] This application provides a general and / or specific description of the materials and test methods used in the experiments. In the following examples, unless otherwise specified, % represents wt%, i.e., weight percentage. Reagents or instruments used, unless otherwise specified, are all commercially available conventional reagent products.

[0100] Example 1

[0101] The strain was prepared and fermented using the method described in the embodiment of CN 110499274 A1 to obtain the fermentation stock solution.

[0102] A composite catalyst was prepared by combining glycerol (5%, 10%, 25%, 30%, and 50% in the composite catalyst), glutaraldehyde (0.01%, 0.03%, 0.05%, 0.07%, and 1% in the composite catalyst), gelatin (2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10% in the composite catalyst), PVA (5%, 10%, 30%, and 50% in the composite catalyst), and polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) (2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, and 10% in the composite catalyst) with the prepared erythroid cell fermentation stock solution. After storage at different temperatures (4℃, 25℃, and 37℃) for 7 days, the catalytic reaction was carried out using the composite catalyst and the fermentation stock solution as a control. The enzyme activity of the reacted samples was measured by gas chromatography. The percentage of enzyme activity loss after 7 days was calculated with the enzyme activity at 0 days of storage as 100%. The results are shown below. Figures 1 to 6 As shown.

[0103] The catalyst activity determination involved dissolving 20-100 μL of the composite catalyst stored for 7 days in water and incubating it in a constant temperature water bath shaker for 10 minutes. After incubation, 200 μL of acrylonitrile was added to the activation system and shaken rapidly several times to ensure uniform dispersion of acrylonitrile. The activation system was then placed in a water bath shaker and reacted for 5 minutes. Finally, acid was added to terminate the reaction and obtain the reaction solution.

[0104] Sample preparation: Take 500 μL of the above reaction solution and filter it through a 0.22 μm filter membrane to obtain the filtrate. Take 300 μL of the filtrate and mix it with an equal volume of internal standard acetamide to obtain the treated sample. Perform gas chromatography to detect enzyme activity in the treated sample.

[0105] The gas chromatography detection conditions were as follows: column temperature, injection port temperature, and detector temperature were 190℃, 240℃, and 280℃, respectively; the carrier gas was nitrogen; constant pressure mode was used with a partial pressure of 110.3 kPa; the injection volume was 0.5-2 μl, and the split ratio was 20:1. After the detection was completed, the acrylonitrile and acrylamide contents in the reaction solution were calculated using a pre-prepared standard curve.

[0106] Enzyme activity calculation:

[0107] Where t refers to time, and the unit is min;

[0108] v 总 This refers to the total volume of the reaction system, which is the total volume of acrylonitrile, Rhodococcus ferment broth, and water.

[0109] v 菌 This refers to the volume of the Rhodococcus fermentation broth.

[0110] from Figures 1 to 6 It can be seen that after storing the fermentation broth and the composite catalyst for 7 days, the enzyme activity loss of the composite catalyst was significantly reduced, indicating that adding component A to the Rhodococcus fermentation broth can significantly improve the storage stability of the Rhodococcus fermentation broth. Among them, the enzyme activity loss was lowest when the content of glycerol in the composite catalyst was 30%, glutaraldehyde was 0.07%, gelatin was 6%, methylparaben (PVA) was 10%, and polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) was 8%. This indicates that the enzyme activity loss was relatively low when the content of glycerol in the composite catalyst was 10-30%, glutaraldehyde was 0.03-0.07%, gelatin was 2-8%, methylparaben (PVA) was 5-30%, and polyethylene glycol (PEG 4000) was 2-8%.

After storage at 25°C for 7 days, the catalytic reaction was carried out using the composite catalyst and the fermentation stock broth as a control. The enzyme activity of the reacted samples was detected by gas chromatography. The percentage of enzyme activity loss after 7 days was calculated with the enzyme activity after 0 days of storage as 100%. The results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown.

After storage at 25°C for 7 days, the catalytic reaction was carried out using the composite catalyst and the fermentation stock solution as a control. The enzyme activity of the reacted samples was detected by gas chromatography. The percentage of enzyme activity loss after 7 days was calculated with the enzyme activity after 0 days of storage as 100%. The results are as follows: Figure 7 As shown.

[0116] A composite catalyst was prepared by combining 10% glycerol + 0.07% glutaraldehyde + 4% gelatin + 2% PEG, 10% glycerol + 5% PVA + 2% PEG + 4% gelatin, 0.07% glutaraldehyde + 2% PEG + 5% PVA + 4% gelatin with the erythroid cell fermentation stock solution prepared in Example 1. After storage at 25°C for 7 days, the catalytic reaction was carried out using the composite catalyst and the fermentation stock solution as a control. The enzyme activity of the reacted samples was detected by gas chromatography. The percentage of enzyme activity loss after 7 days was calculated with the enzyme activity after 0 days of storage as 100%. The results are as follows: Figure 8 As shown.

[0117] Example 5

[0118] A composite catalyst was prepared by combining 10% glycerol, 0.07% glutaraldehyde, 4% gelatin, 2% PEG, and 5% PVA with the erythroid cell fermentation stock solution obtained in Example 1. After storage at 25°C for 7 days, the erythroid cell fermentation stock solution was used as a control. Catalytic reactions were carried out using the composite catalyst and the fermentation stock solution respectively. The enzyme activity of the reacted samples was detected by gas chromatography. The percentage of enzyme activity loss after 7 days was calculated with the enzyme activity after 0 days of storage as 100%. The results are as follows: Figure 9 As shown.

[0119] Example 6

[0120] This embodiment uses a composite catalyst to simulate the catalytic performance of the industrial catalytic reaction of acrylonitrile to acrylamide.

[0121] The reaction system consisted of 500 mL of a composite catalyst (stored at 20°C for 7 days) at a rate of 25 mL. 475 mL of acrylonitrile aqueous solution (30%) was added to initiate the reaction. The reactor was stirred at 200 rpm, and the temperature was maintained at 20-25°C. Reaction progress was measured at intervals. The catalytic results are as follows. Figure 7 As shown, where

[0122] When the composite catalyst A contains gelatin, the gelatin content is 6%;

[0123] When composite catalyst B contains PVA, the PVA content is 10%.

[0124] When the composite catalyst C contains glycerol, the glycerol content is 30%;

[0125] When the composite catalyst D contains PEG, the PEG content is 10%.

[0126] When composite catalyst E contains glutaraldehyde, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%.

[0127] When the composite catalyst F contains glycerol and glutaraldehyde, the content of glycerol is 10% and the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%.

[0128] When the composite catalyst G contains glycerol and PVA, the content of glycerol is 10% and the content of PVA is 5%.

[0129] When the composite catalyst H contains glutaraldehyde and PEG, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07% and the content of PEG is 2%.

[0130] When composite catalyst I contains glycerol, glutaraldehyde and gelatin, the content of glycerol is 10%, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%, and the content of gelatin is 4%.

[0131] When the composite catalyst J contains gelatin, PVA and PEG, the content of gelatin is 4%, the content of PVA is 5%, and the content of PEG is 2%.

[0132] When the composite catalyst K contains glutaraldehyde, PEG and PVA, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%, the content of PEG is 2% and the content of PVA is 5%.

[0133] When the composite catalyst L contains glycerol, glutaraldehyde, gelatin and PEG, the content of glycerol is 10%, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%, the content of gelatin is 4%, and the content of PEG is 2%.

[0134] When the composite catalyst M contains glycerol, PVA, PEG and gelatin, the content of glycerol is 10%, the content of PVA is 5%, the content of PEG is 2%, and the content of gelatin is 4%.

[0135] When the composite catalyst N contains glutaraldehyde, PEG, PVA and gelatin, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%, the content of PEG is 2%, the content of PVA is 5%, and the content of gelatin is 4%.

[0136] When the composite catalyst O contains glycerol, glutaraldehyde, gelatin, PEG and PVA, the content of glycerol is 10%, the content of glutaraldehyde is 0.07%, the content of gelatin is 5%, the content of PEG is 2%, and the content of PVA is 5%.

[0137] from Figure 10 It can be seen that different composite catalysts can all catalyze the formation of acrylonitrile into acrylamide. Compared with the original fermentation broth, the composite catalyst has a higher catalytic efficiency. This indicates that when component A is added to the composite catalyst, it can not only improve the storage stability of the Rhodococcus fermentation broth, but also greatly improve the catalytic performance of the Rhodococcus fermentation broth.

[0138] For example, when using a composite catalyst containing glutaraldehyde and Rhodococcus ferment broth, the amount of acrylamide (AM) detected in the reaction solution after 42 min of catalytic reaction was 30%, and no acrylonitrile was detected. However, when using the fermentation stock broth prepared in Example 1 for catalytic reaction, it took 51 min of catalytic reaction with the fermentation stock broth to detect 30% acrylamide. This shows that the composite catalyst has higher catalytic efficiency compared with the fermentation stock broth.
