Selection of a Mutant Strain Streptococcus equi SH-109 and Optimization of Culture Conditions for the Production of High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid

Article Preview

Abstract:

A high molecular weight hyaluronic acid-producing mutant, designated as Streptococcus equi SH-109 that did not produce streptolysin or hyaluronidase was selected from wild-type Streptococcus equi SH-0 by NTG treatment. The selected mutant could produce high molecular weight HA and had perfect genetic stability after reproduction. Several culture conditions were optimized in a 5-l fermentor for the production of hyaluronic acid. It was found that the optimal pH and agitation speed were 7.6 and 550rpm, respectively. Under the optimized culture condition, hyaluronic acid with a molecular weight of 4.0 x 106 was accumulated in the culture broth.
