Enzymatic hydrolysis and detection of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol esters

There are more and more studies on the detection method of 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol fatty acid esters (3-MCPD esters) at present, by comparing these methods for the determination of 3-MCPD esters. Indirect methods, which determine total amount of 3-MCPD after hydrolysis of the esters, have an advantage over direct methods. The existing indirect methods, however, may yield unreliable results or require long hours of alkaline methanolysis. In contrast, the indirect enzymatic hydrolysis method has mild conditions and more accurate results. In this study, we developed a reliable and rapid indirect method for determination of 3-MCPD esters. 3-MCPD esters were enzymolysis to 3-MCPD by indirect enzymatic hydrolysis method, and the conditions of enzymatic hydrolysis were optimized, the content of 3-MCPD after enzymatic hydrolysis was detected by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and the yield was calculated. Finally, the optimum conditions for enzymatic hydrolysis of 3-MCPD esters were determined. According to the optimal enzymatic hydrolysis condition, the contents of 3-MCPD esters in four food oils were determined. The method is simple and sensitive and can meet the requirement of 3-MCPD esters detection in general oils.     

高产DHA裂壶藻突变株发酵条件的优化

为了进一步提高裂壶藻突变株的DHA产量，以经过⁶⁰Co-γ射线辐照诱变后所得高产DHA裂壶藻突变株1.6-7-1为研究对象，通过Plackett-Burman实验、最陡爬坡实验和响应面实验对其发酵培养基进行优化，同时通过发酵罐发酵培养研究不同溶氧水平对突变株代谢的影响。结果表明：葡萄糖、C₅H₈NNaO₄和NaCl添加量对该突变株产DHA具有显著影响，其最佳添加量分别为葡萄糖125.46 g/L、C₅H₈NNaO₄ 12.44 g/L、NaCl 4 g/L,在此条件下该突变株DHA产量达6.01 g/L,相较于原始菌株提升了49.88%;在高溶氧水平下，突变株生物量高但油脂产量和DHA产量较低，可能是因为细胞优先用营养物质进行自身的生长繁殖，而过低的溶氧水平会抑制能量代谢，减慢细胞繁殖速度。综上，优化发酵条件可以提高突变株DHA产量。
