根瘤菌N613胞外多糖发酵条件及抗肿瘤作用研究

Studies on the Fermentation Conditions and Anti-tumor Effect of Exopolysaccharide from Rhizobium sp. N613

摘要:

用摇瓶正交试验研究了根瘤菌Rhizobium sp. N613合成根瘤菌胞外多糖(rhizobium exopolysaccharide，REPS)的最佳培养基配方和最适培养条件。采用10L自动控制罐进行了分批发酵试验，获得了合成REPS的发酵动力学参数。经40h的补料分批发酵与代谢调控，REPS产量达到11.31g/L。此外，抗肿瘤实验表明，当REPS剂量为5mg/kg时，其抑瘤率可达53.40%。结果表明，REPS的发酵周期短，产量高，成本低，且具有良好的免疫活性与增稠性，有着极高的开发应用价值。

Abstract:

The potential of Rhizobium sp. N613 to produce the exopolysaccharide (REPS) was studied in this paper. Using an orthogonal design in a flask-shaker culture system, the fermentation medium and conditions of synthesizing REPS were optimized. Based on these results, the fermentation kinetic parameters were obtained in the batch fermentation with a 10L fermentor. The REPS yield of 11.31g/L was achieved by metabolic regulation during 40 h fed-batch fermentation. Transplanted tumor models of sarcoma 180 in mice were used to evaluate the anti-tumor effect. The result of anti-tumor activities showed that inhibition rate was 53.40%, when dose of REPS was 5mg/kg. These results indicate that REPS has the following properties: the short duration of fermentation, the high yield, the low cost, the effective immunocompetence and thickening. Thus, REPS has the value of development and application.
