Abstract
Lipase catalyzes the hydrolysis of glycerides into fatty acids and glycerol. The study of microbial lipases has been stimulated in resent years. It is due to the potential uses of lipases in esterification of oils to glycerol, alcohols and carbohydrates. Development of lipase producing yeast has been focused concerning to the utilization of yeast culture for animal feed. In this study, yeast like cells was isolated from a waste oil and sludge. A strain having higher lipase activity was selected by random mutagenesis using UV-radiation. The optimal cultivation conditions in submerged culture were examined in terms of lipase production. 2.0％ of high fructose syrup, 1,0％ of CSL, and 1.0％ of olive oil were selected as the nutritional media for the production of lipase. The maximum lipase activity of 1.12 U/ml and viable cell number of 8.8${\times}$10$\^$7/ cells/mL were obtained at 27$^{\circ}C$ with an initial pH of 5.0.
활성 효모의 동물사료 첨가제로의 이용성을 증진시키기 위하여 lipase 생산성이 높은 효모를 (주)강남유지로부터 채취한 폐유와 슬러지로부터 분리하였다. 분리된 균주를 이용, 자외선 돌연변이를 통해 lipase 생산성이 높은 균주를 개발하였으며 산업용 배양배지의 선별, 배양공정의 개선에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 산업용 배지의 탄소원으로는 고과당, 질소원으로는 CSL이 각각 선정되었으며, 2%의 고과당, 1%의 CSL에서 배양조건을 최적화시키고자 하였다. 1%의 올리브유 첨가, 접종량 4%, 초기 pH 5, 그리고 배양온도 27$^{\circ}C$에서 lipase의 생산성이 최대가 됨을 확인할 수 있었으며 이 때 lipase 역가는 1.12 U/mL를 얻을 수 있었다.
