The
screening method comprises the following steps: S1, taking a high-temperature
yeast sample, adding sterile normal
saline, soaking and oscillating, taking supernate, inoculating the supernate into an
acetic acid bacteria enrichment culture medium, and culturing at constant temperature to obtain enriched liquid; s2, carrying out gradient
dilution on the enrichment liquid, taking a
diluent with a proper concentration,
coating a
calcium plate isolation culture medium with the
diluent, and selecting a single colony generating a transparent circle to carry out multi-generation streak purification; s3, inoculating the purified strain to an acidogenic qualitative culture medium, carrying out shake cultivation, centrifuging the
fermentation broth, taking the supernatant, neutralizing the supernatant with a NaOH solution until the pH value is 7, adding a FeCl3 solution, and heating in a boiling water bath to generate a rufous flocculent precipitate which is an acidogenic bacterium; and S4, preparing bacterial suspension from the bacterial strains which are qualitatively identified as acid-producing
bacteria, inoculating the bacterial suspension to a basic culture medium, and selecting the
bacterial strain with the highest acid yield as a target
bacterial strain. The strain with high acid yield and
high stress tolerance obtained by screening provides a high-quality microbial resource for improving the quality of Maotai-
flavor liquor.
