Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a microorganism having cellulose degrading activity, and more specifically, to a novel strain of Bacillus subtilis having excellent cellulose degrading activity that can be used in food waste processing equipment, having excellent growth even at high temperatures and excellent cellulose degrading ability. Bacillus subtilis This invention relates to a DJ-11 strain and a food waste treatment composition containing the same. Background Technology
[0002] Food waste disposal methods can be classified into landfill, incineration, elimination through dehydration, drying, and fermentation, composting, and animal feed production. However, landfilling generates large amounts of leachate, contaminating groundwater and soil. Furthermore, it not only causes foul odors due to decay but also shortens the lifespan of landfill sites. In the case of incineration, the low calorific value and high moisture content lead to incomplete combustion, posing serious problems such as air pollution.
[0003] In the case of composting, it has failed due to crop damage because it has not been effective in the technical aspects of removing the stimulating properties of Korean food, particularly salt; similar problems exist in the field of animal feed production. Since simple drying methods and drying after fermentation have the disadvantages of requiring daily collection of leftover food from the dryer and consuming a large amount of energy during the drying process, the method of complete fermentation and decomposition using microorganisms can be considered the most ideal and efficient.
[0004] Meanwhile, vegetables, fruits, and grains containing cellulose account for 70–80% of food waste, posing a challenge to rapid composting through eco-friendly microbial decomposition. This is because cellulose has a complex structure, making its decomposition difficult. Cellulose decomposition is carried out by cellulose-degrading enzymes, which have been identified in nature, particularly in a broad spectrum of cellulose-degrading microorganisms (mainly fungi and bacteria), and exhibit high activity in wood-rotting bacteria and fungi.
[0005] Therefore, the development of strains with excellent cellulose-degrading capabilities is urgently required for the efficient processing of food waste containing large amounts of cellulose. Prior art literature

[0053] Culture time(hr) 24 48 72 DJ-11 23 29.5 40 KACC14549 (standard strain) 8 10 15
[0054] From Tables 1 and 2, as well as Figure 3, it can be seen that when cultured at 37°C and 45°C, the cellulase activity of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain was higher than that of the standard strain (KACC 14549), and in particular, when cultured at 45°C, the cellulase activity was more than 2.5 times higher than that of the standard strain (KACC 14549). In addition, although not presented as a specific experimental example, when the growth and enzyme activity of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain were confirmed after 24 hours of culture at higher temperatures, namely 50°C and 55°C, the cellulase activity was 16 mm at 50°C and 14.5 mm at 55°C.
[0055] From these results, it can be seen that the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain of the present invention can exhibit excellent cellulase activity at a temperature of 45 to 55°C suitable for food processing.
[0056] Experimental Example 3. Confirmation of growth rate and enzyme activity of Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain according to pH

At pH 4, Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strains hardly grew, so it was not indicated.
[0058] Specifically, the pH of the liquid medium was adjusted to 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 using a pH meter, and then the absorbance was measured at 600 nm after shaking incubation at 180 rpm at 45°C, which exhibits optimal enzyme activity. The experiment was repeated three times, and the average values of the results were plotted on a graph. The liquid medium used was LB broth containing Tryptone, Yeast extract, and Sodium chloride, which was sterilized at 121°C, 1.2 atm, and 15 minutes.
[0059] As shown in Figure 4, the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain showed the best bacterial growth at pH 8.
[0060] In addition, to investigate the enzyme activity of Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain and the standard strain (KACC 14549) according to pH, media were prepared with the respective substrates added as follows, inoculated, and cultured in a 45°C incubator for 24 and 48 hours, and the results are shown in Tables 3 and 4, respectively. Specifically, the pH of the solid media suitable for investigating each enzyme activity was adjusted to 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 using a pH meter, the strains were inoculated using a loop, and then cultured in a 45°C incubator for 24 and 48 hours.
[0061] Cellulase activity was measured using (CM-Cellulose 1%, Tryptone, Yeast extract, Sodium chloride, Agar 2%, Trypan blue 0.02%), and the diameter (unit: mm) was measured after confirming the clear zone. The medium was sterilized at 121°C, 1.2 atm, for 15 minutes, and then solidified in a petri dish for use.
[0062] pH 5 6 7 8 DJ-11 38.5 40 52 53.5 KACC14549 (standard strain) 24 27 38 32
[0063] pH 5 6 7 8 DJ-11 43 47.5 56.5 57.5 KACC14549 (standard strain) 29 32 43 38
[0064] As shown in Figure 4, the optimal pH for the proliferation of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain of the present invention is 8, which is relatively high. However, it can be confirmed from the results in Tables 3 and 4 that the cellulose degradation activity of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain of the present invention exhibits an enzyme activity at least 1.3 times higher than that of the standard strain when cultured for 24 and 48 hours at a pH lower than 8, i.e., at pH 5 to 8.
[0065] Experimental Example 4. Confirmation of growth rate and enzyme activity of Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain according to NaCl concentration
[0066] First, to confirm the growth of Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strains according to NaCl concentration, Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strains were inoculated and cultured in liquid media with NaCl concentrations set to 3wt%, 5wt%, 7wt%, 8wt%, 10wt%, and 12wt% as follows, and the absorbance was measured, with the results shown in Figure 5. Specifically, the NaCl (wt%) of the liquid media was set to 3wt%, 5wt%, 7wt%, 8wt%, 10wt%, and 12wt%, and then the absorbance was measured at 600nm after shaking culture at 180rpm at 37℃ for 24 hours. The experiment was repeated three times, and the average values of the results were plotted on a graph. The liquid media used was LB broth containing Tryptone, Yeast extract, and Sodium chloride. It was used after sterilization at 121℃, 1.2 atm, for 15 minutes, and the wt% was adjusted after excluding the sodium chloride previously included.
[0067] As shown in Figure 5, the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain exhibited the greatest bacterial growth at 10 wt% and hardly grew at 12 wt%.
[0068] In addition, to investigate the enzyme activity of Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain and standard strain (KACC 14549) according to NaCl concentration, the samples were inoculated onto agar plates containing NaCl as follows and cultured in a 45°C incubator for 24 and 48 hours, and the results are shown in Figures 6 and 7, respectively. Specifically, the NaCl (w%) of the solid medium suitable for investigating each enzyme activity was adjusted to 3 wt%, 5 wt%, 8 wt%, 10 wt%, 12 wt%, and 15 wt%, and then the strains were inoculated using a loop and cultured in a 45°C incubator for 24 and 48 hours.
[0069] Cellulase activity was measured using (CM-Cellulose 1%, Tryptone, Yeast extract, Sodium chloride, Agar 2%, Trypan blue 0.02%), and the diameter (unit: mm) was measured after confirming the clear zone. All media were sterilized at 121°C, 1.2 atm, for 15 minutes, and then solidified in petri dishes for use.
[0070] From Figures 6 and 7, Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain exhibited cellulase activity up to concentrations of 8 wt%, 10 wt%, and 12 wt%, and broad clear zones were observed for each NaCl (wt%) compared to the standard strain. In particular, it was confirmed that enzyme activity was exhibited at a concentration of 12 wt% even though the bacteria did not grow.
[0071] Experimental Example 5. Confirmation of Enzyme Activity of Freeze-Dried Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 Culture Solution
[0072] To confirm whether the cellulose-degrading enzyme (cellulase) produced by the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain of the present invention is an extracellularly secreted enzyme, the 48-hour culture of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain was centrifuged at 3,500 rpm for 20 minutes, the supernatant was filtered through a 0.25 µm membrane filter, and then freeze-dried. The freeze-dried enzyme powder, i.e., the freeze-dried material, was diluted 20-fold in a buffer solution and used. 20 µl was applied to a paper disc, placed on a solid medium to confirm enzyme activity, and incubated in a 45°C incubator for 24 and 48 hours. The diameter (unit: mm) was then measured to confirm enzyme activity, and the results are shown in Fig. 8a. In addition, to investigate enzyme activity according to temperature, freeze-dried samples were diluted 20-fold and treated in water baths at 60°C and 70°C for 30 minutes, respectively. Afterward, they were placed on solid media where enzyme activity could be verified via paper discs, incubated in a 37°C incubator for 24 and 48 hours, and the diameter (unit: mm) was measured to confirm the enzyme activity. The results are shown in Fig. 8b.
[0073] As shown in Fig. 8a, it was confirmed that the freeze-dried product of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain culture had enzymatic activity, but the cellulose degradation ability was weak compared to the activity of the isolated strain being proliferated.
[0074] As shown in Fig. 8b, it can be seen that the enzyme activity of the freeze-dried product of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain culture is maintained even at 70°C.
[0075] Experimental Example 6. Confirmation of weight loss rate of fiber-rich lettuce and cabbage upon treatment with Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain
[0076] To confirm the cellulose degradation ability of the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain on fiber-rich lettuce and cabbage, lettuce and cabbage were cut mainly into leaf portions as shown in Figures 9a and 9b and fed into a food waste processor. Then, Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 (single strain application) and a control group (complex strain of the used strain) were inoculated and treated for 24 hours, after which the residue amount was checked. The reduction rate was calculated by comparing the residue amount with the input amount, and the results are shown in Table 5.
[0077] Materials / Strains Input amount (g) Residual amount (g / 24 hours) Weight loss rate (%) control group DJ-11 control group DJ-11 control group DJ-11 lettuce 1000 1000 360 100 64 90 napa cabbage 1000 1000 380 300 62 70
[0078] As shown in Table 5, when Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 (isolated strain) and existing food waste processing strains were applied to a food waste processor as a control group, the control group showed a reduction rate of 64% and 62%, respectively, after 24 hours of processing, whereas Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 of the present invention showed a reduction rate of 90% and 70%, confirming that Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 of the present invention exhibited a superior reduction in fiber, as seen in laboratory media.
[0079] From the above experimental results, it can be seen that the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain of the present invention exhibits excellent cellulose decomposition ability not only at high temperatures but also in acidic environments with a salt concentration of 12 wt%. Therefore, it can be predicted that the food waste treatment composition containing the Bacillus subtilis DJ-11 strain of the present invention can rapidly process fiber-rich food by-products within a short period of time, thereby showing effectiveness in improving the rapid composting of fiber-rich food.
