The present invention belongs to the technical field of microbial
mutagenesis, and particularly relates to a microbial
mutagenesis breeding device and its application. The microbial
mutagenesis breeding device provided by the present invention includes a cube structure and a transmission structure. The cube structure is wrapped with light-impermeable materials around, and
ultraviolet lamps are arranged inside. The transmission structure includes a single sorting area and a mutagenesis area. The mutagenesis area is inserted into the cube structure through the
insertion opening of the cube structure and is arranged perpendicular to the
ultraviolet lamps. Microorganisms can be sorted singly through the first horizontal spiral conveyor
pipe in the single sorting area and transported to the second horizontal spiral conveyor
pipe in the mutagenesis area, so that the time and intensity of the microorganisms being irradiated by
ultraviolet light are uniform, significantly reducing the mutagenesis
lethality rate of the microorganisms and significantly increasing the positive
mutation rate. The operation is simple, the
workload is small, and the cycle is short. Moreover, by treating the microorganisms with a protective agent having a specific composition before single sorting, the
mutation uniformity and the positive
mutation rate can be further improved.
