Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microbial fermentation, and in particular to a fermentation medium and a Pseudomonas fermentation method and application. Background Art

[0002] Biological treatment technology is the leading and core technology in the current wastewater treatment field. It is safe, efficient and low-cost, and plays an important role in the field of industrial wastewater treatment. However, chemical wastewater is the focus and difficulty of wastewater biological treatment. For example, wastewater from industries such as petrochemicals, coking, and pharmaceuticals contains a large amount of highly toxic organic substances such as phenols, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and antibiotics, which seriously inhibit the growth and activity of microorganisms and reduce the efficiency of wastewater biological treatment.

[0003] At present, physical and chemical processes are usually used for pretreatment of difficult-to-degrade organic wastewater. The treatment cost is high, the operation is difficult, and secondary pollution is easy to occur. The conventional biological treatment process has low microbial abundance, poor tolerance, and low degradation efficiency for treating highly toxic organic matter, resulting in low efficiency, long cycle, and poor effect in the biological treatment of such wastewater. Refractory pollutants require the coordinated metabolism of different degrading bacteria to degrade quickly, but in the process of degradation, with the succession of colony types, the degradation efficiency of pollutants may be greatly reduced, which is not conducive to large-scale treatment. Recombining the degradation genes of different pollutants, combining the metabolic pathways of pollutants of different strains, and constructing efficient bacteria with special degradation functions can effectively improve the degradation ability of microorganisms. There is a lot of application space and development potential for constructing efficient bacteria for pollutant treatment.

[0004] After reasonable transformation, genetically engineered bacteria can simultaneously realize the advantages of multiple environmental microorganisms for pollutant treatment, among which chassis microorganisms are particularly important. Chassis microorganisms are the host for metabolic reactions, and their good biological properties and performance characteristics are conducive to the effective expression of exogenous genes. By splicing the excavated gene elements into chassis microorganisms, the purpose of rationally constructing efficient and stress-resistant bacteria can be achieved. This study uses Pseudomonas, which is of the same genus in taxonomy, as a target for high-density fermentation culture, and constructs an efficient fermentation method to meet the needs of high-throughput strain performance verification and fermentation process development capabilities, thereby providing necessary guarantees for the industrialization of synthetic biology chassis microorganisms. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a fermentation medium and a fermentation method and use to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned object and other related objects, the present invention first provides a fermentation medium, based on the total volume of the fermentation medium, the fermentation medium comprises:

[0007] 4-5 g / L of carbon source, wherein the carbon source comprises maltose syrup and sodium acetate;

[0008] 35-39 g / L of nitrogen source, wherein the nitrogen source comprises corn steep liquor and yeast powder;

[0009] 1-3 g / L of inorganic nutrient salts, 5-9 g / L of trace elements and 0.05-0.2% of the volume mass fraction of nutrient additives.

[0010] The present invention also provides use of the fermentation medium in fermenting and culturing Pseudomonas.

[0011] The present invention also provides a fermentation method of Pseudomonas, which comprises the following steps:

[0012] I) First stage culture: inoculating the seed liquid into the fermentation medium to carry out the first stage fermentation culture;

[0013] II) Second stage culture: feeding by feeding method and continuing culture until the end of fermentation.

[0014] As described above, a fermentation medium, a fermentation method and uses of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1) The raw materials are widely available: the present invention uses industrial-grade glucose, maltose syrup, sodium acetate, crude glycerol, corn steep liquor, ammonium sulfate, yeast powder, humic acid and the like as the main fermentation raw materials for fermentation culture, and obtains good fermentation effect. The carbon source used by the strain is widely available, the price is relatively cheap, and it is relatively stable, which can maintain the stability of fermentation culture and save costs; the optimal carbon-nitrogen ratio of the strain fermentation culture is determined, and the fermentation yield is improved;

[0016] 2) The fermentation culture method is stable: the shake flask seed liquid culture cycle is about 14-18h, OD: 3.0-5.0, fermentation culture inoculation amount: 3%-5%, and the batch fermentation culture cycle is about 24h. Many repeated tests have achieved good results. At the same time, after the strains fermented before and after optimization were stored in a 4°C refrigerator for 30 days, the retention rate of live bacteria obtained by the new fermentation method was about 13% higher than the same period last year;

[0017] 3) Improvement of strain fermentation efficiency: The Pseudomonas was batch fermented with the original fermentation medium, and the culture cycle was about 25 to 28 hours. After the fermentation culture entered the stable period, the colony count of the fermentation liquid (stock solution) was about 0.8 to 1.2*10 10 CFU / ml. The optimized culture medium and fermentation control parameters of the Pseudomonas fermentation culture were improved, and the strain was fermented and cultured using the optimized new fermentation method. First, the fermentation time for the microorganism to reach the stable period was effectively shortened; second, the effective colony count of the fermentation liquid was nearly doubled, reaching a maximum of 2.3*10 10CFU / ml.

[0145] serial number Carbon-nitrogen ratio OD Remark 1# 1 12.1 2# 2 16.3 3# 2.6~2.8 24.0 Control group 4# 4 28.9 5# 5 30.5 6# 6 30.1 7# 7 29.2 8# 8 27.5

[0146] It can be seen from the above table that when the carbon-nitrogen ratio in the fermentation medium is 5, the OD value of Pseudomonas fermentation culture to the stable period is the highest; when the carbon-nitrogen ratio is in the range of 4 to 8, the OD value of the fermentation liquid of this strain is higher than that of the control group. Considering the cost factor, a carbon-nitrogen ratio of 4 to 5 is more economical and reasonable. The number of colonies in the fermentation liquid of the 3# test group is 1.0*10 10 cfu / ml; the number of colonies in the fermentation liquid of the 5# test group was 1.3*10 10 cfu / ml.

[0147] 5.5 Study on the effect of different nitrogen source combinations in culture medium on fermentation

[0148] Ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, corn steep liquor, urea, soybean cake powder, and yeast powder were selected as the main nitrogen source raw materials for the fermentation medium, replacing the trypsin and yeast powder of the basic fermentation medium described in the original 1.2③, and a 5L fermenter was used for testing. The nitrogen content of the fermentation medium was replaced with an equal amount of nitrogen based on the nitrogen content of trypsin and yeast powder in the basic fermentation medium, and the effects of different nitrogen source types and combinations on the fermentation culture of the Pseudomonas were verified. The fermentation medium was prepared according to the optimized carbon source composition and the optimal carbon-nitrogen ratio, and the Pseudomonas was cultured with the optimized fermentation control parameters. The relevant detection indicators are shown in Table 5.

[0149] Table 5 Related indicators of fermentation culture with different nitrogen source compositions and ratios

[0150]

[0151]

[0152] It can be seen from the above table that in the fermentation culture test with inorganic nitrogen sources ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfate as the only nitrogen source, ammonium sulfate has a slightly better effect and a shorter fermentation cycle; yeast powder, corn slurry, urea and soybean cake powder are used as the only nitrogen sources for fermentation culture, and yeast powder and corn slurry have better fermentation effects; the fermentation effect is ideal when ammonium sulfate + yeast powder (≤3:1), ammonium sulfate + corn slurry (≤3:1) and corn slurry + yeast powder (≥3:1) are used as nitrogen source combinations.

[0153] 5.6 Research on fermentation micronutrient additives

[0154] Humic acid was added as a trace nutrient to the basic fermentation medium described in the original 1.2③, and different addition concentrations were set. A small-scale fermentation test was carried out with the optimized medium and control parameters to verify the effect of adding humic acid on the fermentation effect of the strain. The test results are shown in Table 6.

[0155] Table 6 Effects of different humic acid contents on bacterial fermentation

[0156]

[0157] It can be seen from the table above that adding a certain amount of humic acid can effectively promote the fermentation culture effect of this strain. The optimal addition amount is 0.05% to 0.1%.

[0158] 5.7 Study on the effects of feed supplement and total carbon and nitrogen addition on fermentation

[0159] On the basis of the above improvements, the effect of the total amount of carbon source + nitrogen source (carbon-nitrogen ratio of 5:1) added to the culture medium on fermentation was verified. While ensuring that the total volume of the fermentation liquid in each test group was consistent, the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the control group was calculated according to the following steps:

[0160] 1) The seed fermentation medium described in 1.2② is used as the base material, wherein the carbon source in the seed culture medium, i.e., glucose, is replaced by an equal amount of carbon with maltose syrup + sodium acetate (carbon ratio of 3:1), and the nitrogen source in the seed culture medium, i.e., tryptone + yeast powder, is replaced by an equal amount of nitrogen with corn steep liquor + yeast powder (nitrogen ratio of 4:1), and the first carbon and nitrogen amount is calculated;

[0161] The specific calculation steps are as follows:

[0162] The concentration of glucose in the original 1.2② seed culture medium is 3.6g / L, and the carbon content in glucose is 40%. Therefore, the carbon content in 3.6g / L glucose is 1.44g / L.

[0163] Original 1.2② In the seed culture medium, tryptone is 20g / L, yeast powder is 5g / L, the nitrogen content in tryptone is 13%, the nitrogen content in yeast powder is 8%, then the nitrogen concentration in the seed culture medium is 3g / L;

[0164] Then the carbon content provided by maltose syrup + sodium acetate (carbon ratio of 3:1) is guaranteed to be 1.44g / L, and the nitrogen content provided by corn syrup + yeast powder (nitrogen ratio of 4:1) is guaranteed to be 3g / L for equal carbon and nitrogen replacement;

[0165] The carbon content in maltose syrup is 28.5%, and the carbon content in sodium acetate is 29.3%;

[0166] Assume that in a 1L system, the mass of maltose syrup is xg and the mass of sodium acetate is yg, then

[0167] 0.285x+0.293y=1.44 (1)

[0168] 0.285x÷0.293y=3 (2)

[0169] Combining equations (1) and (2), we can obtain: x = 3.79gy = 1.23g

[0170] The concentration of the maltose syrup + sodium acetate mixture is 5.02 g / L.

[0171] The nitrogen content in corn steep liquor is 7% to 8%, and the nitrogen content in yeast powder is 7% to 8%;

[0172] Assuming that the nitrogen content of corn syrup is 8% and the nitrogen content of yeast powder is 8%, and in a 1L system, the mass of corn syrup is ag and the mass of yeast powder is bg, then

[0173] 0.08a+0.08b=3 (3)

[0174] 0.08a÷0.08b=4 (4)

[0175] Combining equations (3) and (4), we can obtain: a = 30g b = 7.5g

[0176] The concentration of the corn steep liquor + yeast powder mixture is 37.5 g / L.

[0177] 2) Then only the carbon source is added until the ratio of carbon to nitrogen in the culture medium is 5:1. The amount of carbon and nitrogen when the ratio of carbon to nitrogen is 5:1 is recorded as the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the control group and recorded as M. The specific calculation steps are as follows:

[0178] Assume that in a 1L system, the carbon amount in the base material is 1.44g and the nitrogen amount is 3g, then the first total carbon and nitrogen amount is 4.44g, recorded as A; only increase the carbon source to a carbon-nitrogen ratio of 5:1. When the carbon-nitrogen ratio is 5:1, the carbon amount is 15g, and the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the control group is 18g.

[0179] Taking the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the control group as the benchmark, the effects of the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the experimental group on the fermentation of the strain were calculated. The total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the experimental group was 1.25 times (1.25M), 1.5 times (1.5M), 1.75 times (1.75M), 2 times (2M) and 2.5 times (2.5M) of the control group respectively.

[0180] Based on the seed culture medium after equal replacement of carbon and nitrogen, the remaining carbon and nitrogen were supplemented by feeding. The remaining carbon and nitrogen amount was the total carbon and nitrogen amount calculated in each group minus the first carbon and nitrogen amount, and then the OD was measured. 600 The relevant test indicators are shown in Table 7. Feeding by feeding is beneficial to the stable control of dissolved oxygen during fermentation and also reduces the inhibitory effect of the osmotic pressure of the fermentation liquid on the strains to a certain extent.

[0181] Table 7: Effects of different feed amounts on Pseudomonas fermentation culture

[0182]

[0183] It can be seen from the above table that when the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added is 1.75 times that of the control group, the fermentation culture effect of Pseudomonas is the best.

[0184] 5.8 Fermentation method to optimize overall effect

[0185] The optimized fermentation method was used to carry out a comparative test of fermentation culture of Pseudomonas. The volume of the fermentation medium was 3L, and the fermentation medium included: 5g / L of a mixture of maltose syrup and sodium acetate (carbon ratio of 3:1), 37.5g / L of a mixture of corn steep liquor and yeast powder (nitrogen ratio of 4:1), 0.05% humic acid by volume mass fraction, 0.5g / L of NaCl, 0.19g / L of KCl, 0.95g / L of MgCl2, 6g / L of FeCl3·6H2O, 0.58g / L of ZnSO4·7H2O, 0.2g / L of CaCl2, 0.2g / L of CuCl2·2H2O, 0.3g / L of MnSO4·H2O, and 0.5g / L of EDTA.

[0186] Combined with the calculation method in 5.7, calculate the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added in the 3L system. The specific calculation steps are as follows:

[0187] The amount of carbon contained in the fermentation medium is 1.44×3=4.32g;

[0188] The amount of nitrogen contained in the fermentation medium is 3×3=9g;

[0189] The first carbon and nitrogen total amount is 4.32+9=13.32g;

[0190] Only the amount of carbon is increased, and the total amount of the second carbon and nitrogen when the carbon-nitrogen ratio is 5:1 is calculated to be 9×5+9=54g;

[0191] From 5.7, we can know that the fermentation culture effect is best when the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added is 1.75 times the total amount of carbon and nitrogen in the second batch, and the total amount of carbon and nitrogen added is 94.5g.

[0192] The total added carbon and nitrogen amount minus the first carbon and nitrogen amount in the fermentation medium, the remaining carbon and nitrogen amount was fed by feeding, and the remaining carbon and nitrogen amount was 81.18g.

[0193] When the dissolved oxygen concentration is higher than 50% to 60%, the first stage of fermentation culture is ended and the feeding is started. The concentration of the mixture of maltose syrup and sodium acetate in the carbon source of the feeding is 40 g / L, and the concentration of the mixture of corn slurry and yeast powder in the nitrogen source is 32 g / L. When the dissolved oxygen concentration of the fermenter is lower than 50% to 60%, the feeding is stopped. Starting the feeding and stopping the feeding are one feeding cycle. In this embodiment, multiple feeding cycles are included until the remaining carbon and nitrogen are used up and the carbon and nitrogen ratio in the final fermenter is ensured to meet 5:1.

[0194] The remaining parameters are as follows: inoculation volume 3% to 5%; pH: 7.0 to 7.5; temperature 37°C. The growth characteristics of different culture times during the fermentation culture process were clarified, and the microbial concentrations before and after the method optimization were compared. The relevant growth indicators are shown in Table 8.

[0195] Table 8 Growth of strains during the culture period before and after optimization of the fermentation method

[0196]

[0197] As can be seen from the table above, in the process of fermentation culture of Pseudomonas by the basic fermentation method in the literature, the culture enters the stable period after about 22 hours, the OD value of the fermentation liquid is the highest at 24 hours, and the ideal fermentation culture cycle is about 22 to 24 hours. The fermentation culture of Pseudomonas was carried out with the optimized fermentation medium and fermentation control parameters, and the culture entered the stable period after about 20 hours, the OD value of the fermentation liquid is the highest at 22 hours, and the ideal fermentation culture cycle is about 20 to 24 hours. After the fermentation method is optimized, compared with the best fermentation result before optimization, the microbial concentration in the same fermentation cycle increased by about 66.7% to 91.7%, and the effect was significant.
