Description

Molecular weight grading and purifying method of polyhydroxyalkanoate
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biomedicine, in particular to a molecular weight grading and purifying method of polyhydroxyalkanoate.
Background
Biopolymer materials obtained by biofermentation are one of the most rapidly developing biomedical friendly materials in recent years. Among the biomaterials, polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is particularly excellent in performance, and a nerve conduit made of PHA, a cartilage material and an esophagus regeneration auxiliary functional material are reported, so that good biocompatibility and excellent physicochemical and mechanical properties are proved, poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4 HB) in the PHA family is used as a patch for repairing abdominal wall defects of a human body, the patch has better biocompatibility compared with a traditional polypropylene (PP) patch, but has the defect of high cost, and related products are not provided at home, the main reason is the difficulty in preparing medical grade polyester, namely the requirement on molecular weight is relatively accurate, the requirement on purity is high, poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-4-hydroxybutyrate (P34 HB) is the most excellent product in performance in the PHA family, and the degradation product of the poly-3-hydroxybutyrate is 3-hydroxybutyrate, so that the repair of biological tissues is facilitated. And the proportion of the 3-hydroxybutyric acid to the 4-hydroxybutyric acid is changed, so that the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of the biological resin can be greatly optimized.
In recent years, the basic research on Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) in China has been completed basically from PHA obtained by biological fermentation to PHA collected and purified and to PHA processing devices, for example, two kinds of salt-tolerant bacteria have been successfully obtained by strict screening by the Chen national strong group of Qinghua university in China, the large-scale production of a series of PHA is realized by microbial fermentation, medical-grade PHA is obtained by improving the purification method, if the traditional polyolefin plastic is replaced, the white pollution caused by chemical engineering plastic can be effectively solved, however, as the biological fermentation is insufficient relative to the chemical process, the basic chemical parameters such as the product molecular weight are difficult to control, the subsequent purification process often contains residues of cell membranes and cytoplasm, and also contains certain cellular endotoxin, the obtained PHA raw material is not pure enough, and the industrialization is difficult to realize. The main problem is therefore that most PHA feedstocks are of low purity and of broad molecular weight distribution, which severely limits their refinement and functional applications and hence lacks further fine processing of the PHA feedstock.
In view of the problem of low PHA purity, the chinese patent "a purification method of polyhydroxyalkanoate" (application No. 201910001260.3, published: 2019.03.26) discloses a purification method of polyhydroxyalkanoate comprising the steps of: (1) Dissolving the PHA crude product in an organic solvent, heating, stirring and cooling simultaneously, and then carrying out centrifugal separation; the organic solvent is mutually soluble with water; (2) Adding water into the separated solution, centrifuging and collecting precipitate; (3) The purification of the polyhydroxyalkanoate is realized by cleaning the precipitate with water, and the purity of the PHA can be improved by the method, but the purified PHA has a wider molecular weight distribution, and the PHA cannot be refined and functionalized. However, there are not many patents related to the physicochemical properties of PHA, such as molecular weight and distribution control.
The technical difficulty in obtaining high-purity narrow molecular weight distribution polyester is that the chemical composition of the polyester obtained by biological fermentation is complex, the molecular weight distribution is wide, and the purification difficulty is high, and the biggest challenge is how to controllably obtain PHA molecules with different molecular weights and molecular weight distributions. Therefore, it is desirable to provide a method for molecular weight fractionation and purification of PHA simultaneously, so as to achieve integration of molecular weight regulation and purification.
