Description

Method for producing pullulan with low nitrogen content
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological fermentation, in particular to a method for producing pullulan with low nitrogen content.
Background
Pullulan (Pullulan), also known as aureobasidium pullulans, pullulan, is a class of water-soluble extracellular neutral polysaccharides secreted by aureobasidium pullulans. The polysaccharide is polymaltritose (containing a small amount of maltotetraose) connected by alpha-1, 6-glycosidic bond, generally has no branch structure and is linear polysaccharide. The unique glycosidic bond connection mode of the pullulan enables the pullulan to have high structural flexibility and good water solubility, so that the pullulan has unique and excellent physical properties which are not available for other polysaccharides, including good adhesive property, fiber forming property, film forming property and plasticity, and a film made of the pullulan has excellent oxygen blocking property. In addition, pullulan is susceptible to chemical modification to alter its water solubility or to provide reactive groups. Therefore, the pullulan and the derivatives thereof are widely used in various fields of food, medicine, chemical industry, electronics and the like, and are multifunctional novel biological products with great development value and prospect.
The pullulan production process comprises the following steps: (1) Pullulan is produced by using Aureobasidium pullulans in batch or fed-batch fermentation; (2) removing thalli in the fermentation liquor; (3) extracting pullulan by post-treatment of supernatant; (4) drying, crushing and packaging. However, after the fermentation production of the pullulan is finished, the fermentation thalli still have good pullulan synthesis capability, and the direct removal of the waste causes not only the resource waste, but also the environmental pollution treatment pressure in the production process of the pullulan.
In addition, nitrogen sources must be added to the fermentation substrate during the pullulan production process, otherwise Aureobasidium pullulans cannot grow. In the process of extracting pullulan by alcohol precipitation, a nitrogen source in fermentation liquor is brought into polysaccharide precipitation. And the pullulan is affected by amylase, pullulanase and the like in the fermentation process, and the molecular weight of the pullulan cannot be further increased due to the existence of the amylase, the pullulanase and the like.
Therefore, the method for producing the pullulan with low nitrogen content and high molecular weight by recycling the Aureobasidium pullulans fermentation thalli is a problem which needs to be solved by the technicians in the field.

All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
Example 1:
pullulan fermentation production process
1. Activating Aureobasidium pullulans (Aureobasidium pullulans) CGMCC No.11602 with PDA culture medium (potato 200g/L, glucose 20g/L, agar 20g/L; initial pH is natural, sterilization is performed at 121deg.C for 20 min), and activating temperature is 28deg.C for 4 days;

3. inoculating the prepared seed solution into a 250mL shaking flask containing 50mL of fermentation culture solution (sucrose 50g/L, ammonium sulfate 0.9g/L, yeast powder 1.7g/L, magnesium sulfate 0.2g/L, sodium chloride 1.0g/L, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate 5.0g/L, initial pH6.5, 121 ℃ for 20 min) according to the amount of 5% (V/V), and fermenting and culturing for 72h at 28 ℃ with the aeration rate of 1vvm and the rotating speed of 300 rpm;
4. after fermentation, centrifugal solid-liquid separation (3000 rpm,15 min) is carried out, supernatant is desalted and decolorized, alcohol precipitation, drying and crushing are carried out to obtain pullulan, and thallus precipitation is used for converting pullulan (fermentation stage).
The pullulan is produced by fermenting Aureobasidium pullulans for 48 hours, the yield is 32.68g/L, the conversion rate is 65.36 percent, and the nitrogen content is 4.7521g/kg. GPC measurement revealed that the weight average molecular weight of the prepared pullulan was 317kDa (FIG. 1); the infrared chromatographic assay shows that the prepared pullulan is consistent with the infrared spectrum of the pullulan of a Sigma standard (figure 2).
Pullulan conversion production process
Collecting Aureobasidium pullulans in a fermentation stage, suspending in 3.5L of pullulan conversion liquid (sucrose 50g/L, magnesium sulfate 0.2g/L, sodium chloride 1.0g/L, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate 5.0g/L, initial pH6.5, sterilizing at 121+/-5 ℃ for 20 min), 28 ℃, ventilating at 0.5vvm, stirring at 200rpm, converting for 96 hours, centrifuging to remove thalli, desalting and decolorizing supernatant, precipitating with alcohol, drying and pulverizing to obtain pullulan.
The pullulan is produced by transformation of Aureobasidium pullulans for 96 hours, the yield is 27.71g/L, the transformation rate is 55.42 percent, and the nitrogen content is 0.5137g/kg. GPC measurement revealed that the obtained pullulan had a weight average molecular weight of 2312kDa (FIG. 3); the infrared chromatographic assay showed that the prepared pullulan was consistent with the infrared spectrum of the Sigma standard pullulan (fig. 4). The nitrogen content of pullulan produced in the comparative fermentation stage is obviously reduced (figure 5), the molecular weight is obviously increased, the yield is not obviously reduced, and the results are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1 pullulan yield and product index
Pullulan is affected by amylase, pullulanase, etc. during fermentation, the presence of which negatively affects molecular weight. The nitrogen source is lacking in the transformation culture medium prepared by the application, so that the synthesis of biological enzymes in thalli is limited to a certain extent, and therefore, the influence of amylase and pullulanase on the molecular weight of pullulan is weakened, and the molecular weight of pullulan is obviously increased. In addition, in the fermentation medium, the nitrogen source in the fermentation liquid can be brought into polysaccharide precipitation in the alcohol precipitation process, and because the nitrogen source is lack in the conversion medium, when the pullulan alcohol is precipitated, the nitrogen source is not contained in the fermentation liquid wrapped in the polysaccharide precipitation process, so that the nitrogen source content of the pullulan obtained by conversion is lower.
The previous description of the disclosed embodiments is provided to enable any person skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein may be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
