[0001] Related applications

[0002] This application claims priority to the prior application filed on June 14, 2024, with the China National Intellectual Property Office, application number 202410772667.7, and incorporates it in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present application belongs to the field of fermentation, and specifically relates to Kluyveromyces marxianus strain, inoculum, fermentation broth, fermented food and preparation and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0004] Yeast plays an irreplaceable role in the fermentation of traditional dairy products. The growth and reproduction of yeast improve product flavor, increase product quality and nutritional value. Lactose, the only carbon source in milk, is completely utilized after being hydrolyzed into glucose and galactose by β-galactosidase. However, the yeast used in the prior art, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, cannot directly utilize lactose in dairy product fermentation because it does not contain β-galactosidase. However, Kluyveromyces marxianus contains abundant β-galactosidase, which can rapidly ferment lactose in milk to produce a variety of flavor substances. However, not all Kluyveromyces marxianus strains can ferment lactose in milk, and the sensory differences of dairy products obtained by different strains are large, so it is crucial to screen Kluyveromyces marxianus suitable for dairy product fermentation.

[0005] The invention patent with application publication number CN 115895920 A isolated an ester-producing Kluyveromyces marxianus from Tibetan yak milk residue. First, a tolerance test was conducted, including acid tolerance (pH 2.0-pH 4.0), salt tolerance (NaCl concentration 1%-7%), and bile salt tolerance (bovine bile salt concentration 0.1%-0.5%); second, the Kluyveromyces marxianus strain with good tolerance was mixed with lactic acid bacteria to ferment pasteurized milk, and the volatile flavor components were detected and sensory evaluation was conducted; finally, the best-performing Kluyveromyces marxianus strain was selected. The Kluyveromyces marxianus mixed with lactic acid bacteria can ferment commercially available pasteurized milk to produce alcohol-containing fermented milk and a variety of ester flavor substances, but the lactose not utilized during the fermentation of dairy products and the galactose accumulated by lactic acid bacteria fermentation affect the quality of the products and cause health burden to patients with lactose intolerance and galactosemia.

[0098] Source and identification of the strain of example 1

[0099] 1 mL of the fermented milk collected from the herdsmen's home in the sixth team of the Luobei Town of the Zhalute Banner of the Tongliao City of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was mixed with 9 mL of sterile water, and then diluted by 10 times in a serial gradient to obtain 10 -5 -6 mL of bacterial suspensions. 200 μL of the bacterial suspensions of different gradients were taken and spread on the lactase screening medium plates, which were cultured at 30°C for 48 h. As shown in FIG. 1, the lactase-producing strain had a blue hydrolysis circle phenotype in the lactase screening medium. Then, the single colonies with the blue hydrolysis circle were picked from the lactase screening medium, and then streaked and purified on the YPD medium plates after culture for 2 d. The streaking and purification was repeated for 3 times, and then inoculated on the YPD slant medium and stored at 4°C.

[0100] In addition, the purified strain was inoculated on the YPD solid medium, and the colony morphology was observed after being cultured at 30°C for 2 d. In addition, the single colony was inoculated in 200 μL of YPD liquid medium, and the bacterial suspension was obtained by culturing at 180 rpm and 30°C for 16 h. 20 μL of the bacterial suspension was taken and placed on a glass slide, and the bacterial morphology was observed under an optical microscope at 400 times magnification.

[0101] ​A strain was obtained, the colony texture of which was cheese-like, the color of which was milk white, the surface of which was smooth, the edge of which was neat, the microscopic morphology of which was oval, and the budding reproduction of which was observed. The genome of the strain was extracted, and the ITS1 (5'-TCCGTAGGTGAACCTGCGG-3', referred to as SEQ ID No. 1) and ITS4 (5'-TCCTCCGCTTATTGATATGC-3', referred to as SEQ ID No. 2) primers were used for PCR amplification, and the PCR program was as follows: 94°C pre-denaturation for 5 min, 94°C denaturation for 30 s, 55°C annealing for 45 s, 72°C extension for 90 s, 30 cycles, and finally 72°C extension for 10 min. The ITS gene sequence of the yeast was amplified, and after 1% gel electrophoresis detection and sequencing, the sequence was analyzed and compared with the sequences in GenBank. The sequence similarity of more than 99% was the same species. The ITS sequence of the strain was SEQ ID No. 3, as shown below:

[0102] In combination with morphological analysis and molecular identification, the strain was Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 (Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586), which was preserved in the China Center for Type Culture Collection on September 25, 2023, and the preservation number was CCTCC NO: M 20231793. Figure 2 shows the microscopic morphology of the Kluyveromyces marxianus strain AMCC 31586; and Figure 3 shows the colony morphology of the Kluyveromyces marxianus strain AMCC 31586.

[0103] Example 2: Multi-carbon source utilization ability of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586

[0104] (1) The steps for determining the carbon source substrate utilization ability are as follows:

[0105] (1.1) Determination of growth curve:

[0106] Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 was inoculated into YPD liquid medium at an inoculation amount of 2% by volume, and cultured at 30°C and 180 rpm for 24 h to obtain a viable cell count of 10 8The bacterial suspension was centrifuged and washed, and the centrifugation and washing were performed as follows: 1 mL of the culture solution was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 2 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the bacterial pellet was reserved. The bacterial pellet was resuspended with 1 mL of sterile water, and the bacterial pellet was centrifuged and washed twice. Then, the bacterial pellet was resuspended with 1 mL of sterile water, and was inoculated into a 100-hole culture plate containing 300 μL of liquid medium containing a carbon source substrate at an inoculation amount of 1% (v / v), and a growth curve was determined and plotted by using a Bioscreen C instrument. The carbon source substrate was 10% (w / v) sucrose, 4% (w / v) lactose, 4% (w / v) galactose, 4% (w / v) glucose, 0.7% (w / v) lactic acid, 1.1% (w / v) lactic acid, or 2% (w / v) lactic acid. The Bioscreen C instrument was set as follows: temperature, 30°C; time, 24 h; wavelength, 600 nm; and absorbance was measured every 30 min. The results are shown in Table 3 and FIG. 4.

[0107] The growth information calculation formula is as follows:

[0108] OD 600nm The growth rate calculation formula is as follows:

[0109] OD1—initial OD 600nm value;

[0110] OD2—final OD 600nm value;

[0111] The maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) calculation formula is as follows:

[0112] The doubling time is the time required for the bacterial amount to double in the exponential growth phase.

[0113] As shown in Table 3 and FIG. 4, FIG. 4 is a growth curve of the K. marxianus strain AMCC 31586 in the presence of a carbon source substrate of 10% (w / v) sucrose, 4% (w / v) lactose, 4% (w / v) galactose, 4% (w / v) glucose, 0.7% (w / v) lactic acid, 1.1% (w / v) lactic acid, or 2% (w / v) lactic acid. The results show that the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) of the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 in the 10% (w / v) sucrose substrate is 0.4, and the bacterial growth is much better than that in other carbon source substrates. Sucrose is the main component in molasses, and 10% (w / v) sucrose is the carbon source content in high-density fermentation. Higher biomass is the basis for fermentation production, and on this basis, μ maxThe greater the biomass of the bacteria, the shorter the time to reach the biomass, the faster the growth rate, and thus the fermentation time can be shortened, energy consumption can be reduced, and a higher input-output ratio can be obtained, which is of guiding significance for production.

[0114] Further, since the lactose content in each 100 mL of conventional commercially available milk is about 4 g, the present application cultured the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 in a liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) lactose, and the results are shown in Table 3 and FIG. 4. The results showed that the highest OD value (OD max ) of the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 cultured in the liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) lactose within 24 h was 1.561, the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) was 0.333, and the OD 600nm growth rate was 1063.11%.

[0115] Further, since galactose and glucose are hydrolysis products of lactose, one molecule of lactose is hydrolyzed to generate one molecule of galactose and one molecule of glucose. Therefore, the present application cultured the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 in a liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) galactose, and cultured the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 in a liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) glucose, and the results are shown in Table 3 and FIG. 4. The results showed that the highest OD value (OD max ) of the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 cultured in the liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) galactose within 24 h was 1.215, the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) was 0.163, and the OD 600nm growth rate was 511.18%; the highest OD value (OD max ) of the K. marxianus AMCC 31586 cultured in the liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) glucose within 24 h was 1.775, the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) was 0.234, and the OD 600nm growth rate was 557.47%.

[0116] Table 3. Growth information table of K. marxianus AMCC 31586

[0117] It should be noted that according to different processes, the yeast bacteria will also be compounded with lactic acid bacteria in the fermentation of dairy products, and through the mixed fermentation effect, the excessive lactic acid produced by the lactic acid bacteria is consumed, the growth inhibition of lactic acid bacteria caused by lactic acid accumulation is relieved, the growth of lactic acid bacteria is promoted, and the number of probiotics in fermented milk is increased. The lactic acid bacteria fermented dairy product is mainly yogurt, and the main organic acid in yogurt is lactic acid. The national standard (GB2746-1999) of yogurt stipulates that the acidity of the product should be ≥70 °T (1 °T: indicates that 100 mL of yogurt contains 0.01 g of lactic acid), and when the acidity range is 80-110 °T, the flavor of yogurt is the best, and the customer satisfaction is the highest. However, with the extension of storage time, the accumulation of lactic acid produced by lactic acid bacteria, the acidity rises, the pH value decreases, and the taste is greatly affected. Therefore, the present application will culture the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 in the liquid medium containing 0.7% (w / v) lactic acid, the liquid medium containing 1.1% (w / v) lactic acid and the liquid medium containing 2% (w / v) lactic acid. The results are shown in Table 3 and Figure 4, and the results show that the highest OD value (OD max ) of the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 cultured in the liquid medium containing 0.7% (w / v) lactic acid within 24h is 0.959, the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) is 0.205, and the OD 600nm growth rate is 313.36%; the highest OD value (OD max ) of the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 cultured in the liquid medium containing 1.1% (w / v) lactic acid within 24h is 1.107, the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) is 0.202, and the OD 600nm growth rate is 473.58%.

[0118] The highest OD value (OD max ) of the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 cultured in the liquid medium containing 2% (w / v) lactic acid within 24h is 0.841, the maximum specific growth rate (μ max ) is 0.123, and the OD 600nm growth rate is 246.09%. It can be seen that the growth of the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 in the liquid medium containing 1.1% (w / v) lactic acid is the best, which shows that the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 can fully utilize lactic acid as a single carbon source for growth, and can effectively consume the excess lactic acid produced by lactic acid bacteria.

[0119] (1.2) Lactose degradation rate detection

[0120] Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 was inoculated into liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) lactose at an inoculum of 2% (v / v) and incubated at 30°C at 180 rpm. At 4h, 8h, 12h and 24h of fermentation, 20 mL of culture was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 2 min, and the supernatant was retained. The residual lactose content in the supernatant was determined by HPLC according to GB 5009.8-2023, and the results are shown in Table 4. The lactose degradation rate was calculated according to the residual lactose content in the supernatant, and the results are shown in Table 5. The test was repeated 3 times.

[0121] As shown in Table 4, the lactose content in the fermentation supernatant after 24h of fermentation ranged from 0 to 0.45g / 100g, and the lactose content in lactose-free milk was required to be less than 0.5g / 100g. This indicates that Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 has the potential to fully consume lactose in milk and can be used to produce lactose-free milk.

[0122] Table 4 Residual lactose content of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 in lactose fermentation broth

[0123] As shown in Table 5, the results show that the lactose degradation rate of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 in liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) lactose was 22.5% at 12h of fermentation, and the lactose degradation rate of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 in liquid medium containing 4% (w / v) lactose was 88.8%-100% at 24h of fermentation. This again demonstrates that Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 can fully utilize lactose substrate.

[0125] Example 3 Effect analysis of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 fermentation of milk

[0126] (1) The steps for Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 to make fermented milk are as follows:

[0127] (1.1) Seed preparation: inoculate AMCC 31586 into a test tube containing 5 mL of YPD liquid medium at an inoculum of 2% by volume, and incubate at 30°C at 180 rpm for 24h to obtain a viable cell count of 10 8CFU / mL, 1 mL of the bacterial suspension was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 2 min, the supernatant was discarded and the bacterial pellet was retained. The bacterial pellet was resuspended with 1 mL of sterile water and the bacterial pellet was centrifuged for washing twice. Then the bacterial pellet was resuspended with 1 mL of sterile water, and the viable cell count was ensured to reach 2 x 10 8 CFU / mL, to obtain the seed liquid.

[0128] (1.2) Preparation of sterilized milk: commercially available sterilized pure milk of Mongolian cow was taken and divided into 250 mL conical flasks, and the liquid volume in each conical flask was 100 mL.

[0129] (1.3) Fermentation: the seed liquid obtained in step (1.1) was inoculated into the conical flask containing 100 mL of commercially available sterilized pure milk of Mongolian cow at a inoculation amount of 2% by volume, so that the viable cell count in 100 mL of commercially available sterilized pure milk of Mongolian cow was 10 6 CFU / mL, and the fermentation was carried out under the conditions of fermentation temperature of 30°C, shaking speed of 100 r / min, and culture time of 36 h to obtain fermented milk.

[0130] (1.4) The evaluation criteria of fermented milk are as follows: the sensory evaluation of fermented milk is taken as the first evaluation criterion, and experienced personnel are organized to conduct sensory evaluation of fermented milk. The specific sensory evaluation criteria are as follows: the comprehensive score of the aroma and sweetness of the fermented milk is taken as the screening criterion. The aroma score interval is 1-10, the sweetness score interval is 1-10, and the higher the score represents the more significant the aroma and sweetness.

[0131] Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 obtained 10 points in the aroma and sweetness evaluation.

[0132] (2) Experienced personnel were organized to conduct sensory evaluation of the fermented milk prepared by fermentation of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586, and the results are shown in Table 6.

[0133] (3) The fermented milk prepared by fermentation of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 was detected for the index content of fermented milk, and the results are shown in Table 7. Among them, the indexes of fermented milk include: lactose, ethanol, protein, acetic acid, acidity and PH. The commercially available sterilized pure milk of Mongolian cow was taken as the blank control.

[0134] Among them, the determination of lactose adopts GB 5009.8-2016;

[0135] The determination of ethanol adopts GB 5009.225-2023;

[0136] The determination of protein adopts GB 5009.5-2016;

[0137] The determination of acetic acid adopts GB 5009.157-2016;

[0138] The determination of acidity adopts GB 5009.239-2016;

[0139] The determination of pH adopts GB 5009.237-2016.

[0140] (4) The fermented milk prepared by fermenting the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 was subjected to flavor substance detection, and the results are shown in Figure 5. The flavor substance detection steps are as follows: 5 mL of milk fermentation broth was taken into a headspace bottle, 1.5 g of sodium chloride and 1 μL of internal standard solution (o-dichlorobenzene) were added, and mixed, 50°C was balanced for 30 min, and volatile component analysis was performed. Gas chromatography conditions: chromatographic column: DB-HeavyWAX, 30 m x 0.25 mm x 0.25 μm, injection port temperature 250°C, carrier gas: He; temperature program: 40°C for 3 min, 5°C / min rate to 200°C, hold for 0 min; 10°C / min rate to 250°C, hold for 3 min. The odor activity value (OVA) of the volatile substance was used to characterize the aroma contribution of the aroma substance to the fermented milk, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0141] OAVs = aroma component concentration / aroma component threshold.

[0142] OAVs value greater than or equal to 1 means reaching the threshold range that can be smelled by human olfactory, which can be smelled.

[0143] Table 6 Sensory evaluation results

[0144] As shown in Table 6, the results show that the sensory experience of the fermented milk prepared by fermenting the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 is quite different from that of pure milk. The Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 fermented milk has a pleasant aroma and a sweet and clear flavor, providing a more rich fermented flavor for dairy products.

[0145] Table 7 Index content of fermented milk

[0146] As shown in Table 7, the results show that the pH of the Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 fermented milk is reduced by 0.6, the acidity is increased by 215%, no lactose and galactose is detected, indicating that the lactose and lactose decomposition product galactose in the milk can be completely utilized, the protein content is increased by 5.8%, and the ethanol content is less than 2.5% vol, meeting the low alcohol standard (GB / T 17204-2008).

[0147] As shown in Figure 5, Figure 5 is a diagram of the aroma activity of flavor substances above the threshold concentration in milk fermented by Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586. The OAVs of flavor substances in milk fermented by Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 increased significantly, and the greater the OAVs value, the stronger the aroma. In milk fermentation, the substances with an OAV higher than 1 are the core aroma contributors. There are 12 core aroma substances in milk fermented by Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586, including eugenol, phenylacetaldehyde, anethole, isoamyl alcohol, phenylethanol, ethyl undecanoate, isoamyl acetate, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl decanoate, ethyl iso-valerate, phenyl ethyl acetate and ethyl octanoate, including 7 ester substances, 2 alcohol substances, 1 phenol substance, 1 aldehyde substance and 1 ether substance. Among them, ethyl iso-valerate is the main aroma contributor of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586, with a concentration of 2.328 ng / mL, and the odor threshold of this substance is only 0.01 ng / mL, so its OAVs value is as high as 232.80, and the aroma characteristic of this substance is sweet apple aroma.

[0148] In addition, in milk fermented by Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586, isoamyl acetate contributes to banana aroma, with an aroma activity value of 43.54; ethyl octanoate contributes to brandy aroma, with an aroma activity value of 13.46; phenyl ethyl acetate contributes to peach aroma, with an aroma activity value of 9.14; ethyl hexanoate contributes to apple-pineapple fruit aroma, with an aroma activity value of 9.26; ethyl palmitate contributes to coconut aroma, with an aroma activity value of 1.08; ethyl undecanoate also contributes to coconut aroma, with an aroma activity value of 5.68; phenylethanol contributes to rose aroma, with an aroma activity value of 6.79; isoamyl alcohol contributes to white wine aroma, with an aroma activity value of 13.44; phenylacetaldehyde contributes to elegant tulip fragrance, with an aroma activity value of 6.79.

[0150] Example 4 Flavor of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 strain fermentation broth

[0151] Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 strain was inoculated into YPD medium, and cultured at 30°C for 24h to obtain the fermentation broth of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586. The volatile substance composition in the fermentation broth was detected, and the results are shown in Figure 6 and Table 8. The specific detection steps are as follows: 5mL of fermentation supernatant was taken into a headspace bottle, 1.5g of sodium chloride and 1μL of internal standard solution (o-dichlorobenzene) were added, and the mixture was mixed, equilibrated at 50°C for 30min, and then analyzed for volatile components, wherein the gas chromatography conditions were as follows: chromatographic column: DB-HeavyWAX, 30m x 0.25mm x 0.25μm, injection port temperature 250°C, carrier gas: He; temperature program: 40°C for 3min, 5°C / min rate to 200°C, hold for 0min; 10°C / min rate to 250°C, hold for 3min.

[0152] The aroma components were qualitatively determined in scan mode, and the information of chromatographic retention time and mass spectrum was retrieved in NIST 17 standard library. The aroma components with standards were quantified by standard curve, and the aroma components without standards were quantified by similar substances with chemical structure, and the aroma activity value was calculated. The components with aroma activity value greater than 1 were analyzed for aroma characteristics, and the results are shown in Table 9, wherein the formula for calculating the aroma activity value is as follows:

[0153] Aroma activity value = aroma component concentration (μg / L) / aroma component threshold value (μg / L).

[0154] As shown in Figure 6, Figure 6 is the GC-MS chromatogram of the fermentation broth of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586. As analyzed from Figure 6, 20 ester substances, 17 alcohol substances, 8 acid substances, 4 ketone and phenol substances were produced in the fermentation broth of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586. As shown in Table 8, Table 8 is the volatile substances in the fermentation broth of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586. Among the volatile substances, the total ester accounts for as high as 51.78%, followed by the total alcohol, accounting for 28.84%.

[0156] As shown in Table 9, Table 9 is the activity value and aroma characteristics of flavor substances in the fermentation broth of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586. From the calculation results of the aroma activity value, it can be known that in the fermentation broth of Kluyveromyces marxianus AMCC 31586 strain, the components with aroma activity value higher than 1 are the core fermentation aroma, a total of 14 kinds, including 6 kinds of esters such as phenethyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, δ-dodecalactone, ethyl decanoate, ethyl octanoate and ethyl hexanoate, 6 kinds of alcohols such as geraniol, linalool, isoamyl alcohol, phenethyl alcohol, nerolidol and citronellol, and 2 kinds of aldehydes such as phenylacetaldehyde and nonanal. The dominant aroma characteristics are the banana fruit aroma of isoamyl acetate with an aroma activity value of 848.67, followed by δ-dodecalactone with an aroma activity value of 93.07, which contributes the aroma of coconut or butter to the fermentation broth, in addition, there are rose aroma contributed by geraniol with an aroma activity value of 58.07, sweet peach aroma contributed by phenethyl acetate with an aroma activity value of 55.29, sweet orange / oily aroma contributed by nonanal with an aroma activity value of 48.65, green tea wood green aroma contributed by linalool with an aroma activity value of 42.16, coconut aroma contributed by ethyl decanoate with an aroma activity value of 13.66, and the above core fermentation aroma and the fruit aroma contributed by other substances together add various pleasant flavors to the fermentation broth.
