Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine resource microbial strains and fermentation engineering, and in particular to a purple monascus strain with high yield of monascus pigment and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Monascus is an important resource microorganism for both medicinal and edible purposes. Monascus pigment is a natural pigment produced by Monascus, mainly used for food coloring, winemaking, etc. Long-term use practice has shown that Monascus pigment is a natural and safe pigment. In addition to food coloring, Monascus pigment also has the following functions: (1) Antioxidant effect: Monascus pigment can scavenge free radicals in the body, reduce oxidative stress, reduce oxidative damage, and help prevent aging and oxidation-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease and cancer; (2) Regulating blood lipids: Certain components in Monascus pigment may have a certain effect on regulating blood lipids and is beneficial to cardiovascular health; (3) Antibacterial effect: Monascus pigment has a certain inhibitory effect on certain bacteria, molds and yeasts. It can inhibit the growth and reproduction of microorganisms by affecting the cell membrane permeability and metabolic process of microorganisms, and has certain application potential in food preservation and antiseptic treatment; (4) Improving intestinal flora: Monascus pigment has a certain regulatory effect on intestinal flora, helps maintain the balance of intestinal microecology, promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria, and inhibits the reproduction of harmful bacteria, thereby having a positive impact on intestinal health. In addition, Monascus can also produce functional substances such as lovastatin, which helps lower blood lipids.
[0003] Functional substances related to red yeast rice have the ability to lower blood lipids. As an important source of effective substances, red yeast rice and its related industries will also usher in new development opportunities in this process.
[0004] The "Opinions on Improving the Quality of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Promoting the High-Quality Development of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Industry" emphasizes the need to maintain the security of industrial development and vigorously strengthen the protection of traditional Chinese medicine resources and core technologies and processes through various means, such as the protection of traditional knowledge. Red yeast rice is an important edible and medicinal microbial product, and the red yeast rice strain is the key to its efficacy.
[0005] Given the significant value of red yeast rice products in Traditional Chinese Medicine and food and drug applications, and given the diverse metabolite types and yields of different red yeast rice strains, highly active, superior strains are prioritized for protection. These differences in properties determine the quality and efficacy of red yeast rice products, profoundly impacting the development of related industries. Protecting superior strains will help ensure the stable quality of red yeast rice products, promote industry innovation and upgrading, and enable red yeast rice to continue to play a greater role in maintaining health and promoting economic development.

[0068] The present invention is further described in detail below through examples.
[0069] In the following examples, unless otherwise specified, all raw materials are commercially available products.
[0070] Example 1: Screening of Monascus purpurogenum M23067Z4Fd12
[0071] The strain of the present invention was obtained by screening from the Monascus library of Shenyang Agricultural University. The strains in the library were all isolated from naturally fermented red yeast rice. The purple Monascus M23067Z4Fd12 of the present invention was obtained through primary screening and secondary screening. The specific steps are as follows:
[0072] 1. Preliminary screening of bacterial strains:
[0073] The seed liquid culture method was used to preliminarily screen the red yeast rice strains with high pigment content in the fermentation broth.
[0074] The specific screening steps are as follows: take out the Monascus cake stored in the -80℃ refrigerator, dissolve it under natural conditions, and then put it into PDA culture medium and culture it at 30℃ for 7 days; pick the spores on the surface of the PDA culture medium into sterile water and beat them with sterilized glass beads to make the spore concentration reach 1×10 6 4 mL of spore suspension was added to the seed liquid culture medium and cultured at 30°C and 180 r / min for 7 days, and then the pigment content was determined.
[0075] Determination of Monascus pigment content: Take 5 mL of the fermentation broth after the above culture, add 10 mL of 70% ethanol, and place in a 60°C water bath for 30 min. After cooling to room temperature, 410nm ,OD 470nm ,OD 510nm The content of red yeast rice pigment was determined.
[0076] The results showed that 15 strains of red yeast rice had strong pigment production ability, while other strains had less pigment content or were even unable to metabolize and synthesize red yeast rice pigment.
[0077] 2. Strain rescreening:
[0078] Liquid fermentation was used to screen high-pigment red yeast rice strains.
[0079] The specific screening steps are as follows: the 15 red yeast rice strains obtained from the initial screening were fermented with seed liquid, and after constant temperature shaking at 30°C for 4 days, 4 mL of seed liquid was taken for liquid fermentation culture for 7 days to obtain fermentation liquid.
[0080] Method for determining the pigment content of Monascus: The fermentation broth was filtered and the pigment content of the obtained supernatant fermentation broth was determined (the determination method refers to the initial screening of strains).
[0081] Determination of mycelium dry weight: The precipitate obtained after filtration was rinsed with distilled water, dried, and the mycelium dry weight was determined.
[0082] Determination of citrinin content: Take 1.5 mL of fermentation broth for determination of citrinin. The specific determination method refers to GB5009.222-2016 "Determination of citrinin in foods".
[0083] The results are shown in Table 1.
[0084] Table 1 Monascus pigment content, citrinin content, and mycelial biomass of the rescreened strains
[0085]
[0086]
[0087] Table 1 shows that the fermentation broth of strain M23067Z4Fd12 has the highest content of red yeast rice pigment, which is 181.150 U / mL, and its mycelial growth is also the highest, which is 38.5 g / L, and it does not contain citrinin. In contrast, the fermentation broths of the four strains M230525Z6Ia1, M230606Z3Dc15, M230601Z3Dc16, and M230628Z3Gc23 all contain citrinin, and the red yeast rice pigment production is average; while the red yeast rice pigment production of other strains is very low.
[0088] In summary, the M23067Z4Fd12 strain grew well and had a strong pigment metabolism ability. Therefore, through primary and secondary screening, the M23067Z4Fd12 strain was finally determined to be a high-quality strain that produces high pigment and no citrinin, namely the purple Monascus of the present invention.
[0089] Example 2: Morphological identification of Monascus purpurogenum M23067Z4Fd12
[0090] 1. Observation by plate culture method: The activated M23067Z4Fd12 bacterial cake was inoculated into PDA medium and cultured at 30℃ for 7 days, 15 days and 30 days, and the colony morphology, color and growth were observed.

[0092] 2. Observation under an optical microscope: Add an appropriate amount of distilled water to the plate and gently scrape off the hyphae and spores on the bacterial cake; aspirate 10 μL and drop it onto a glass slide, and use an optical microscope to observe the morphological characteristics of ascospores, ascocarps, etc.
[0093] The results are as follows Figure 2 As shown; Figure 2Display: The hyphae of M23067Z4Fd12 are irregularly branched, transparent, with obvious oil droplets, transverse septa, and warty crystals on the wall; the ascocarp type is cleistocarp, which is spherical or elliptical and has a stalk; there are many spherical asci scattered in the ascocarp, each containing spherical or ovoid ascospores, which disintegrate after maturity and release ascospores.

Weigh approximately 0.1g of the powder, add 5mL of 70% ethanol, incubate in a water bath for 1 hour, and centrifuge at 8000r / min for 5 minutes. Collect the supernatant. Measure 0.5mL of the test solution, add 1mL of 5% NaNO₂, shake well, and let stand for 6 minutes. Add 1mL of 10% Al(NO₃)₃, shake well, and let stand for 6 minutes. Finally, add 5mL of 4% NaOH, make up to volume with 70% ethanol, shake well, and let stand for 15 minutes. Measure the absorbance at 510nm and calculate the total flavonoid content in mg / g.
[0183] 2. Determination of DPPH free radical scavenging ability: After centrifugation of the fermentation broth, the supernatant was taken and diluted 10 times with distilled water. 0.3 mL was added to 3.7 mL of 1.0×10 -4 mol / L DPPH solution, after thorough mixing, react at room temperature in the dark for 20 minutes, centrifuge at 8000r / min for 5 minutes, take the supernatant and measure its absorbance at a wavelength of 517nm, record it as A1, replace the supernatant with distilled water and measure its absorbance at a wavelength of 517nm, record it as A0, replace the DPPH solution with anhydrous ethanol and measure its absorbance at a wavelength of 517nm, record it as A2, and calculate the DPPH free radical scavenging rate to reflect its antioxidant activity.
