Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the fields of bioenzyme engineering and biomanufacturing technology, and in particular to a high-activity dextranase preparation system and preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Dextranase, a key industrial enzyme, is widely used in food processing (such as sucrose refining) to remove dextran impurities, in the pharmaceutical field (such as preventing and treating dextran-induced thrombosis), in the bio-fermentation industry (such as reducing the interference of dextran in fermentation systems on product extraction), and in oral care. For example, the application of dextranase in oral care products stems primarily from its highly efficient and specific ability to degrade dextran. The main matrix component of dental plaque biofilm is dextran (especially α-1,6-glycosidic linked dextran), which is synthesized by cariogenic bacteria (such as Streptococcus mutans) using sucrose and promotes bacterial adhesion and plaque aggregation. Dextranase can hydrolyze the α-1,6-glycosidic bonds of dextran, disrupting the plaque matrix structure and preventing its formation and accumulation. It is also environmentally friendly. This technology is often combined with fluoride, other enzymes (such as lysozyme), or low-concentration antibacterial agents to achieve sustained release and synergistic effects through toothpaste, mouthwash, and other dosage forms.
[0003] Traditional dextranase production mainly relies on microbial fermentation, with commonly used strains including molds and bacteria. However, existing strains suffer from drawbacks such as low enzyme activity expression and limited product conversion efficiency. Traditional fermentation processes often employ a batch-feed model, where the supply of nutrients (carbon and nitrogen sources) is not synchronized with the metabolic demands of microbial growth and enzyme synthesis. This leads to disordered energy metabolism, long fermentation cycles, and low product yields, thus limiting enzyme synthesis efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0269] Example 2
[0270] This embodiment provides a customized high-activity dextranase and its preparation method.
[0271] The preparation method of the high-activity dextranase in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Example 1, the difference being the directional addition concentration of metal ions:
[0272] 12h~24h: Add MgSO4•7H2O solution to control the Mg content in the fermentation broth. 2+ The concentration increased linearly to 10 mmol / L;

[0276] Enzyme activity expression level: 28900 U / mL, an increase of 3.2% compared to Example 1.
[0277] Enzyme activity loss rate: 15.1%, higher than in Example 1, due to the high concentration of ions slightly increasing the difficulty of membrane separation.
[0278] Applicable scenarios: More suitable for the pharmaceutical field where enzyme stability is extremely important.
[0279] Example 3
[0280] This embodiment provides a customized high-activity dextranase and its preparation method.
[0281] The preparation method of high-activity dextranase in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Example 1, except that the triggering conditions of the adaptive pulse feeding algorithm are adjusted in this embodiment:
[0282] When the attenuation of the 1.2kHz component of the microfluidic impedance spectrum exceeds 12%, a 0.5-second nitrogen source pulse injection is triggered.
[0283] When the 3.8kHz component increases by more than 18%, the circulation flow rate is adjusted downward in a stepwise manner.
[0284] Results and Analysis
[0285] Enzyme activity expression level: 27000 U / mL, slightly lower than in Example 1, but still 35% higher than the traditional technique;
[0286] Fermentation cycle: 40 hours, which is 4.8% shorter than that of Example 1.
[0287] Enzyme activity loss rate: 12.9%, slightly lower than in Example 1.
[0288] Advantages: Shorter fermentation cycle, further reduced production costs, suitable for large-scale industrial mass production scenarios.
[0289] Example 4
[0290] This embodiment provides an application of dextranase in toothpaste.
[0291] The typical values of the added amounts of each component of the toothpaste are shown in Table 1.
[0292] Table 1
[0293]
[0294] The dextran prepared in Example 1 was applied to toothpaste, and the required amount of each component is shown in Table 2.
[0295] Table 2
[0296]
[0297] As shown in Tables 1 and 2, this application broadens formulation compatibility. Enzymes with greater stability exhibit higher tolerance to acidic and alkaline environments, active additives (such as fluoride and plant extracts), fragrances, preservatives, and surfactants in toothpaste formulations, eliminating the need for excessive stabilizers. This simplifies the formulation system, reduces costs, and allows for compounding with various active ingredients to develop multi-functional high-end oral care products. Dextranase is more effective at breaking down plaque and tartar. Active ingredients in the formulation (such as whitening ingredients like phosphates, HAP, and sodium fluoride) are better able to contact the tooth surface. Whitening ingredients like phosphates can break down pigments on the tooth surface and continuously combine with pigment-causing factors to achieve stain removal and prevention. Active ingredients like HAP and sodium fluoride can effectively adhere to the enamel surface, increasing tooth hardness. Under the same enzyme activity conditions, the required dosage is lower, while broadening the compatibility of toothpaste formulations and reducing formulation costs.
[0298] In summary, in at least one embodiment of this application, the high-activity dextranase preparation system has the following beneficial effects:
[0299] (1) By combining refined feeding strategy with continuous flow energy metabolism, the problems of microbial energy metabolism imbalance and low KLa (volume oxygen mass transfer coefficient) mass transfer efficiency are solved. The fermentation cycle is shortened from 72 hours to 42 hours, a reduction of 41.7%, and the enzyme activity expression level is increased to about 27,000 U / mL, which is 35% higher than the traditional 20,000 U / mL.
[0300] (2) The extraction process adopts a multi-stage membrane separation combined with a -30℃ gradient freeze drying process, which makes the enzyme activity loss rate ≤15%, compared with the traditional purification process loss >20%, making it easier to produce a finished powder with high enzyme activity, with an enzyme activity ≥1000000U / g.
[0301] (3) The compatibility of dextranase in toothpaste formulation is broadened and the enzyme activity is maintained for a long time: Under the same amount of enzyme activity, the activity period is extended, and it can stably play a catalytic role during the storage, transportation and use of toothpaste. It avoids enzyme inactivation due to environmental factors (such as temperature and humidity) or formulation ingredients (such as surfactants, fragrances and preservatives), and ensures that the product has consistent efficacy throughout the three-year shelf life from the time it leaves the factory to the time it is used by consumers.
