Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial fermentation technology, and relates to a Kudriazwiipichii yeast that is resistant to ethanol, produces high levels of ethanol and fatty acid ethyl esters, and produces low levels of isoamyl alcohol, and its application in the production of golden prickly pear fruit wine. Background Technology

[0002] Ethanol plays a crucial role in the brewing industry. The ethanol content in alcoholic beverages determines their alcohol content and strength. It also influences the overall aroma and flavor of the beverage. While not a flavor or aroma compound itself, ethanol is not only a precursor to esters and other aroma compounds in alcoholic beverages but also affects the release of their aromas. In alcohol production, yeast is both the dominant microbial genus and a key producer of ethanol, making significant contributions to the fermentation rate and flavor quality of alcoholic beverages. However, ethanol, a byproduct of fermentation, affects the stability of yeast membranes and metabolic pathways. Its gradual accumulation can hinder yeast growth and metabolism, causing inhibitory and toxic effects. Therefore, the ethanol tolerance of a yeast strain is closely related to its ethanol yield. In light of this, screening for ethanol-tolerant and high-yielding yeast strains and applying them to fruit wine production can shorten the production cycle and reduce production costs, which has profound implications for the fruit wine industry.

[0003] The aroma of fruit wine primarily originates from esters, which impart fruity and floral notes. Most esters are synthesized by yeast or produced through esterification reactions of acids and alcohols in the wine, catalyzed by esterifying enzymes. Among these, ethyl fatty acid esters contribute significantly to the flavor of fruit wine. During anaerobic fermentation, yeast releases large amounts of fatty acids and their related ethyl esters, which are crucial for the aroma and quality of fermented fruit wine. Most ethyl fatty acid esters have low threshold values ​​and primarily contribute fruity or floral aromas, thus enhancing the pleasant and aromatic qualities of the wine. Therefore, increasing the content of ethyl fatty acid esters in fruit wine is a critical issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the fruit wine industry, and it has profound implications for improving the quality of fruit wine.

[0004] Isoamyl alcohol in fruit wine mainly comes from yeast metabolism. It's a double-edged sword in fruit wine; while it imparts sweetness and fruitiness, and in appropriate amounts can improve flavor, making the wine fuller-bodied and more harmonious, excessive isoamyl alcohol can not only cause bitterness and harshness but also potentially damage the drinker's nervous system, causing headaches and a feeling of "headache." Therefore, how to rationally control the isoamyl alcohol content in fruit wine is a crucial issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the fruit wine industry, and it has profound significance for improving the quality of fruit wine.

[0116] Example 1: Screening of yeast strains in Daqu (a type of starter culture) that are resistant to ethanol, produce high levels of ethanol and fatty acid ethyl esters, and produce low levels of isoamyl alcohol.

[0117] Weigh 10g of pulverized high-temperature Daqu (a type of starter culture) and place it in 90mL of sterile physiological saline. Shake well for 30min to obtain an extract. Dilute the extract appropriately and spread it on the lower layer of triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) medium. Incubate at 28℃ for 2 days until visible colonies appear. Cover the colonies with the upper layer of TTC medium that has been melted and cooled to 50℃. Incubate at 28℃ for 3 hours. Select strains that are bright red and have typical yeast characteristics.

[0118] Selected colonies were inoculated into YPD liquid medium using an inoculation loop and cultured at 28°C with shaking at 120 rpm for 1 day. The selected bacterial cultures were then transferred at a 2% inoculation rate to ethanol-tolerant media with ethanol concentrations of 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%, and 15% (v / v), and cultured for 72 hours using a growth curve analyzer preheated to 28°C with rapid shaking.

[0119] Finally, the bacterial culture of the selected strains capable of growing under high-concentration ethanol conditions (i.e., the bacterial culture obtained by shaking and culturing in YPD liquid medium at 28°C and 120 rpm for 1 day) was inoculated at a 2% inoculation rate into high-sugar YPD liquid fermentation medium for liquid fermentation. After culturing at 28°C and 120 rpm for 3 days, the contents of ethanol, fatty acid ethyl esters, and isoamyl alcohol in the fermentation broth of each strain were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography, respectively. A yeast strain that produces high levels of ethanol and fatty acid ethyl esters but low levels of isoamyl alcohol (hereinafter referred to as the "target strain") was screened. The growth curves of the target strain in media with different ethanol volume percentages were automatically generated by a growth curve measuring instrument, such as... Figure 1 As shown in Table 1, the detection data of the target strain are as follows.

[0120] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that the target strain grew well under ethanol volume percentages of 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%, and could still grow under ethanol volume percentage of 15%, but with a lag phase. Meanwhile, the cell viability during the stationary phase of the target strain was almost consistent under ethanol volume percentages of 0%, 3%, 6%, and 9% (viability (%) = OD600 value after culture in medium containing different ethanol concentrations / OD600 value after culture in medium without ethanol), but decreased slightly under ethanol volume percentages of 12% and 15%.

[0121] The liquid fermentation culture conditions were as follows: inoculum size of 2%; high-sugar YPD liquid fermentation medium was used; cultured at 28℃, 120 rpm, and on a shaker for 3 days.

After sterilization, ethanol and sterilized distilled water were added according to the final ethanol concentration of the prepared culture media to dilute the yeast extract to 10 g / L, the peptone to 20 g / L, and the glucose to 20 g / L, with ethanol volume percentages of 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, 12%, and 15%, respectively.

[0126] High-sugar YPD liquid fermentation medium: 10 g / L yeast extract, 20 g / L peptone, and 100 g / L glucose were dissolved in distilled water and sterilized at 115°C for 15 min.

[0167] Comparative Example: Angel Yeast SY applied to the fermentation of golden prickly pear wine

[0168] The sugar content of the golden prickly pear juice (same as in Example 4) was measured using a handheld saccharimeter. Based on the measured results, sucrose was added to adjust the sugar content to 22°Bx. The adjusted golden prickly pear juice was then dispensed into three fruit wine fermentation tanks equipped with one-way exhaust valves, with 300 mL dispensed into each tank. Additionally, 0.45 mL of pectinase and 30 mg of potassium metabisulfite were added to each fermentation tank. During the fermentation process, Angel Yeast SY was inoculated, with the total inoculum size of Angel Yeast SY approximately controlled at 9.60 × 10⁻⁶. 9 CFU. After inoculation with the strain, the fermenters were placed in an incubator at 28°C for fermentation. Each fermenter was weighed daily to monitor the weight loss during the fermentation process. Fermentation was stopped when the daily weight loss of each fermenter was less than 0.2 g / 300 mL.

[0169] The results of the detection of ethanol, fatty acid ethyl esters and isoamyl alcohol content in Angel Yeast SY fermented golden prickly pear fruit wine are shown in Table 4.

The quantitative analysis of fatty acid ethyl esters and isoamyl alcohol was performed using the internal standard method.

[0176] Calculations showed that in the fermentation experiment of golden prickly pear fruit wine, the ethanol yield of the experimental group with added Kudria zweipichia yeast XJ-YPPKU067-1 was 0.7% higher than that of the control group with added Angel yeast SY. The content of fatty acid ethyl esters in the experimental group was generally higher than that in the control group: ethyl acetate, ethyl hexanoate, and ethyl isovalerate increased from none to present; ethyl butyrate increased by about 87.2%; ethyl heptanoate increased by about 52.2%; ethyl octanoate increased by about 49.0%; ethyl nonanoate increased by about 67.1%; ethyl decanoate increased by about 102.8%; ethyl laurate increased by about 733.5%; ethyl palmitate increased by about 38.5%; ethyl 3-octenoate increased by about 83.3%; ethyl trans-cinnamate increased by about 4.0%; ethyl trans-3-hexenoate increased by about 71.7%; and ethyl phenylacetate decreased slightly by 32.3%.
