The invention belongs to the technical field of microorganisms, and discloses a high-yield EPA
schizochytrium limacinum strain based on normal-pressure and room-temperature
plasma mutagenesis and a preparation method and application thereof.The preparation method comprises the following steps that 1, wild
schizochytrium limacinum HX308 growing in an exponential period is selected, and a NaCl
salt solution with the
mass concentration of 2% is used for preparing a bacterial suspension; (2) carrying out
mutagenesis on the bacterial suspension in an ARTP
mutagenesis instrument; (3) uniformly
coating a screened
solid culture medium with the mutagenized strain, and culturing in an
incubator at 28 DEG C; (4) selecting strains with the fatality rate of 85% on the screening plate for subsequent
fermentation culture, and detecting the yield of EPA (
Eicosapentaenoic Acid); and (5) determining the EPA content of the
mutant strain through a gas chromatographic method, and screening out the
schizochytrium limacinum strain with high yield of EPA. The EPA high-yield strain is finally obtained, the yield reaches 5.72 g / L and is 6.09 times that of a
wild type with the yield being 0.94 g / L, and the economic effect is remarkable.
