Abstract  

To screen strains which could selectively producing elevated molecular weight and pigment-free pullulan for the production of pullulan industry, a new strain was separated and then the culture condition was optimized. The improved YPD solid culture medium (addition of 1mg/L chloramphenicol and 0.5 g/L Trypen Blue) was used as selection medium. A new culture, strain A5, was screened and identified based on the morphology, colony and ITS interval sequence analysis. Single factor test was performed to optimize the fermentation conditions. The separation and purified production was identified and determined with Thin-layer chromatography (TLC), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) and Gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The new strain was identified to be Aureobasidium pullulans, and named as A. pullulans A5, which could selectively produce pullulan. The fermentation conditions were optimized to be 8% (w/v) maltose, 1% (w/v) yeast extract, 2% (w/v) peptone, 0.5% (w/v) K2HPO4, 0.06% (w/v) (NH4)2SO4, 0.03% (w/v) CaCl2, initial pH6, 7% (v/v) inoculation amount. TLC and FT-IR spectroscopy of this production were consistent with those of the standard, and the molecular weight was 63.84 kDa. A yeast-like fungal strain A5 was successfully obtained and identified with its high molecular weight and pigment-free production. At the optimized conditions, the pullulan yield was 22.9 g/L. So a candidate strain for the production of pullulan industry was provided.
