Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of microbial fermentation engineering, in particular to a Bifidobacterium culture medium and a high-density culture method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Bifidobacterium is (0.5-1.3) μm x (1.5-8.0) μm in size, has a high G+C content (about 55%-67%), and is of a non-typical lactic acid fermentation mode, and its metabolic end products mainly include acetic acid and lactic acid. On different species levels, the cell configurations of Bifidobacterium differ, and even the morphology of the same species is affected by the culture conditions and growth stages. Common morphologies include short rod, curved, stick rod, Y-shaped bifurcation, V-shaped bifurcation, etc. On solid culture medium, Bifidobacterium is of a smooth surface, has protrusions, a neat edge, and a milky white or white colony, and has a soft and easy-to-pick texture. As a strict anaerobe, the growth of Bifidobacterium is affected by the oxygen regulation mechanism, but different species of Bifidobacterium differ in oxygen tolerance. In a high-oxygen environment, the cell will have metabolic disorder to produce excessive hydrogen peroxide, thereby inhibiting the catalytic activity of fructose-6-phosphate-phosphoketolase and hindering proliferation. In terms of physiological adaptability, the optimal growth pH of Bifidobacterium is 6.0-7.0, and the growth is limited when the pH is lower than 4.5 or higher than 8.5. The optimal growth temperature of Bifidobacterium is 37℃-41℃, and the growth cannot be achieved when the temperature is lower than 20℃ or higher than 46℃.

[0003] As a key member of the human intestinal microbial community, Bifidobacterium exhibits its probiotic properties in multiple dimensions such as anti-aging intervention, tumor inhibition, and lipid metabolism regulation through mechanisms such as community homeostasis regulation, metabolic product synthesis, and immune barrier enhancement, and the number level and strain diversity of Bifidobacterium are positively correlated with the health status of the host. At present, Bifidobacterium live bacterial preparations are widely used in many industries such as medicine, food, and feed, but due to the limitations of the anaerobic culture characteristics of the strain itself and the complexity of the production process, the content of Bifidobacterium in some domestic products is low, which makes it difficult for the product to achieve the expected health improvement effect, and to some extent, restricts the development of related industries.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to provide a Bifidobacterium high-density culture process and culture medium to solve the problems of limited cell density improvement and long fermentation period of Bifidobacterium. SUMMARY

[0040] 1.2 Isolation and Screening of Strains

[0041] Collect sufficient fecal samples from healthy infants (without gastrointestinal symptoms and who have not taken any medications affecting the gut microbiota prior to sampling). Quickly transfer the collected fecal samples to sterile containers, add sterile saline for dilution and mixing to reduce impurities and microbial concentration variations. Perform serial dilutions of the pretreated fecal suspension to obtain different concentrations of bacterial suspension. Select an appropriate dilution of 10-1. -4 -10 -5 The bacterial culture was evenly spread onto MRS medium. Multiple parallel plates were prepared for each dilution to increase the reliability of the screening. The spread plates were placed in a constant temperature biochemical incubator and anaerobically cultured at 37°C for 48 h.

[0042] 1.3 Isolation and purification of strains

[0043] After incubation, observe the colony morphology on the plates and select colonies that resemble Bifidobacterium. Bifidobacterium colonies are characterized by a smooth, raised surface, neat edges, and are milky white or white in color; they are also soft and easily picked. The selected colonies are then inoculated onto fresh MRS agar plates using the four-zone streak method for further purification. This step is repeated until a pure culture is obtained.

[0044] 1.4 Identification and Verification of Strains

[0045] DNA was extracted from the pure culture and amplified by PCR using primers specific to Bifidobacterium. The amplified products were then detected by gel electrophoresis. Simultaneously, 16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed, and the sequencing results were compared with those of known strains to identify it as *Bifidobacterium lactis* subspecies, named *Bifidobacterium lactis* subspecies BB-12.

[0046] The strain of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. BB-12 has been deposited at the China Center for Type Culture Collection (CCTCC) with accession number CCTCC NO: M 20251070, deposited on May 15, 2025, at Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
