Test example 1
The concentrations (i.e., acidity) of the citric acid fermentation broths in examples 1-3 and comparative examples 1-5 were examined according to GB/T1987-2007 standard, and the conversion of citric acid was calculated, and the fermentation periods and yields of citric acid in examples 1-3 and comparative examples 1-5 were counted, and the results are shown in Table 1.
Wherein conversion (%) = [ (concentration of citric acid broth×volume of broth)/weight of total sugar in citric acid broth ] ×100%;
the fermentation period of the citric acid is the time from the start of fermentation to the stop of fermentation;
the yield of citric acid is the ratio of the mass of citric acid after concentration and crystallization to the volume of citric acid fermentation broth.
Examples 1-3 are identical to the citric acid purification conditions employed in comparative examples 1-5.
TABLE 1 acidity, conversion, fermentation cycle, yield values of citric acid
As can be seen from Table 1, comparative examples 1 to 3 are citric acid prepared by fermentation using single Aspergillus niger, aspergillus oryzae and Neurospora crassa, respectively, the conversion rate of citric acid is 15.8 to 95.2%, the fermentation period is 61 to 142 hours, and the yield is 12 to 168g/L, and thus, when fermentation is performed using a single strain, the yield, conversion rate and fermentation period of citric acid are not ideal.
In the prior art, aspergillus niger is mainly used as a fermentation strain to prepare citric acid, and two strains are used for fermentation in comparison examples 4-5, wherein one of the strains is aspergillus niger, and as can be seen from comparison examples 4-5, aspergillus oryzae or Neurospora crassa are respectively added on the basis of the aspergillus niger, and compared with single strain fermentation, the fermentation period can be shortened, and the conversion rate, the yield and the acidity of the citric acid are improved, but the effect of the citric acid is a certain difference compared with the mixed fermentation of three strains of aspergillus niger, aspergillus oryzae and Neurospora crassa. Therefore, the invention adopts Aspergillus niger, aspergillus oryzae and Neurospora good to ferment cooperatively, can effectively improve the yield and conversion rate of citric acid and shorten the fermentation period.
The foregoing description is only of the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the same, but rather, various modifications and variations may be made by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
