AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies for isolating Poria cocos strains suffer from problems such as high strain inactivation rate, high transportation costs, and the inability to obtain effective strains outside the harvest season. In particular, excessively high temperatures during drying and preservation lead to strain inactivation, and there is a lack of optimized soaking parameters.
A four-pronged control method was adopted, including a 35℃ low-temperature drying temperature, a 1.5cm³ size, 30-60s sterilization, and 30-60min soaking. This method encompassed fresh Poria cocos treatment, culture medium preparation, pre-inoculation preparation, and Poria cocos diced inoculation steps. By strictly controlling the temperature and time, the metabolic activity of the dried strain was activated.
It has enabled the dried strains to be stored at room temperature for six months, increasing the isolation success rate to 95% and reducing the contamination rate to below 5%. It has replaced the cold chain system for fresh Poria cocos and improved the preservation and transportation efficiency of the strains.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bacterial strain isolation technology, and more specifically, to a method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of edible and medicinal fungi, the isolation of *Wolfiporia cocos* strains has long relied on direct inoculation of fresh *Wolfiporia* tissue blocks. This method requires inoculation to be completed within a short period after harvesting; otherwise, the internal tissues of the sclerotia will become inactive. Furthermore, the entire process requires refrigerated transport at 4°C, and the cost accounts for more than 30% of the total production input. In addition, the concentrated production areas of *Wolfiporia* mean that effective strains cannot be obtained outside the harvest season. Existing technologies attempt to preserve the strains by drying; however, drying also has fatal technical drawbacks, such as drying temperatures exceeding 50°C leading to strain inactivation, and the lack of optimized soaking parameters reducing the strain recovery rate. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos, which can be achieved by drying at a low temperature of 35°C with a temperature of +1.5cm. 3 The four-fold control of specifications, 30-60s sterilization, and 30-60min soaking can activate the metabolic activity of dried microorganisms.
[0004] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: a method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos, comprising the following steps:
[0005] S1. Fresh Poria cocos processing and drying;
[0006] S2. Prepare the culture medium;
[0007] S3. Preparations before vaccination;
[0008] S4. Poria cocos inoculation.
[0009] The present invention is further configured as follows: the specific operation steps of processing and drying fresh Poria cocos in S1 are as follows: the surface of the collected fresh Poria cocos sclerotia is rinsed clean with pure water, the surface of the sclerotia is wiped with a cotton ball soaked in 75% alcohol, the surface of the Poria cocos sclerotia is rinsed twice again with sterile pure water, the surface moisture is absorbed with sterile paper towels, the outer skin of the sclerotia is cut open with pre-sterilized scissors and knife, and several Poria cocos cubes with a specification of 1.5cm×1.5cm are cut from the center of the inside. The Poria cocos cubes are then placed in an envelope bag and dried at a low temperature of 35°C. The temperature is strictly controlled during the process until the Poria cocos cubes are completely dry.
[0010] The present invention is further configured as follows: the specific steps for preparing the culture medium in S2 are as follows: Prepare a PDA culture medium with 200g potato, 20g glucose, 18g agar, 2g KH2PO4, 0.5g MgSO4, and 1000mL water, pH 6.5–7.0. Place the well-mixed culture medium in an Erlenmeyer flask and sterilize at 121℃ for 20 minutes. After sterilization, pour the mixture into 9cm diameter plates for inoculation.
[0011] The present invention is further configured as follows: the specific operation steps for the preparation before inoculation in S3 are as follows: the tools to be placed in the ultra-clean workbench include an alcohol lamp, a lighter, a small blue bottle filled with alcohol, a marker, PDA culture medium, and sealing film (to minimize contamination after inoculation). After the tools are placed, the ultraviolet lamp is turned on for sterilization.
[0012] After sterilizing the tweezers, absorbent paper, pure water, and beaker at 121℃ for 20 minutes, place them in a clean bench with UV light pre-activated until the pure water cools to room temperature. Finally, turn off the UV light and place the poria cocos pieces to be inoculated into the workbench.
[0013] The present invention is further configured as follows: the specific operation steps for inoculating Poria cocos in S4 are as follows: Soak the Poria cocos pieces in a beaker containing 75% alcohol for 30-60 seconds. After the required soaking time, use sterile forceps to remove them from the alcohol and rinse them in a beaker containing sterile water. After rinsing, pour out the water and rinse twice more with sterile water. After rinsing three times, place the Poria cocos pieces on absorbent paper and drain for 1 minute. Soak the Poria cocos pieces in a beaker containing sterile water for 30-60 minutes. After the required soaking time, use sterile forceps to remove them from the sterile water and drain them on absorbent paper for 1 minute. Then, use sterile forceps to inoculate them into a PDA culture medium plate and seal with a sealing film to complete the inoculation. The forceps must be soaked in alcohol after each inoculation and sterilized and cooled over an alcohol lamp before reuse.
[0014] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. Provides a method for isolating dried Poria cocos with diced bacteria, enabling storage at room temperature for 6 months, replacing the cold chain system for fresh Poria cocos.
[0016] 2. By using 35℃ low-temperature drying (avoiding protein denaturation) and 30 minutes of sterile water soaking (precise restoration of osmotic pressure), the separation success rate is increased to 95%.

The method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos diced according to claim 1, characterized in that: The specific steps for processing and drying fresh Poria cocos in S1 are as follows: Rinse the surface of the collected fresh Poria cocos sclerotia with pure water, wipe the surface of the sclerotia with a cotton ball soaked in 75% alcohol, rinse the surface of the Poria cocos sclerotia twice with sterile pure water, use sterile paper towels to absorb the surface moisture, take out pre-sterilized scissors and a knife to cut open the outer skin of the sclerotia, cut out several Poria cocos cubes with a size of 1.5cm×1.5cm from the center of the inside, then place the Poria cocos cubes in an envelope bag and dry them at a low temperature of 35℃. The temperature is strictly controlled during the process until the Poria cocos cubes are completely dry.
3. The method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos diced according to claim 1, characterized in that: The specific steps for preparing the culture medium in S2 are as follows: Prepare PDA culture medium with 200g potato, 20g glucose, 18g agar, 2g KH2PO4, 0.5g MgSO4 and 1000mL water, pH 6.5-7.0; place the well-mixed culture medium in an Erlenmeyer flask and sterilize at 121℃ for 20min. After sterilization, pour it into a 9cm diameter plate for inoculation.
4. The method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos diced according to claim 1, characterized in that: The specific steps for preparing before inoculation in S3 are as follows: Tools to be placed in the ultra-clean workbench include an alcohol lamp, a lighter, a small blue bottle filled with alcohol, a marker, PDA culture medium, and sealing film (to minimize contamination after inoculation). After the tools are placed, turn on the ultraviolet lamp for sterilization. After sterilizing the tweezers, absorbent paper, pure water, and beaker at 121℃ for 20 minutes, place them in a clean bench with UV light pre-activated until the pure water cools to room temperature. Finally, turn off the UV light and place the poria cocos pieces to be inoculated into the workbench.
5. The method for isolating bacterial strains from dried Poria cocos diced according to claim 1, characterized in that: The specific steps for inoculating Poria cocos in S4 are as follows: Soak Poria cocos pieces in a beaker containing 75% alcohol for 30-60 seconds. After the required soaking time, use sterile tweezers to remove them from the alcohol and rinse them in a beaker containing sterile water. After rinsing, pour out the water and rinse twice more with sterile water. After rinsing three times, place the Poria cocos pieces on absorbent paper and let them drain for 1 minute. Soak the Poria cocos pieces in a beaker containing sterile water for 30-60 minutes. After the required soaking time, use sterile tweezers to remove them from the sterile water and let them drain on absorbent paper for 1 minute. Then, use sterile tweezers to inoculate them into a PDA culture medium plate and seal with a sealing film to complete the inoculation. The tweezers must be soaked in alcohol after each inoculation and sterilized and cooled over an alcohol lamp before reuse.
