چکیده مقاله :
سابقه و هدف: روغن حاصل از میکروارگانیسم ها(SCO) نسبت به روغن های گیاهی ارجحیت دارد زیرا حاوی مقادیر بیشتری گامالینولئیک اسید است، پایداری بیشتری در برابر اکسیداسیون و محتوای کمتری از باقیمانده آفت کش ها دارد. این روغن ها به عنوان مکمل های غذایی قابل استفاده هستند. هدف از مطالعه حاضر شناسایی مولکولی مخمر ها و کپک های مولد چربی موجود در خاک و بهینه سازی تولید چربی توسط کاندیدا گلابراتا با طراحی تاگوچی است.مواد و روش ها: از خاک باغات و مناطق نزدیک به مغازه های تعویض روغن و رستوران، نمونه گیری و شناسایی مخمر ها و کپک های تولید کننده ی چربی با روش واکنش زنجیره ای پلیمراز انجام شد. سپس جدایه قارچ با بیشترین میزان تولید لیپید انتخاب و با استفاده از طراحی تاگوچی، بهترین شرایط از نظر میزان منبع کربن و نیتروژن وpH برای تولید حداکثری تعیین گردید. چربی حاصل توسط کروماتوگرافی گازی با آشکارساز طیفسنج جرمی(GC-MS) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت.یافته ها: در بین گونه های شناسایی شده،Candida glabrata strain DHP14-2 بیشترین مقدار چربی را تولید کرد. تولید پالمیتولئیک، پالمیتیک، لینولئیک، لینولنیک و استئاریک اسید در این بررسی ثابت شد. تولید لیپید در کاندیدا گلابراتا معادل 9/6 گرم در لیتر و در مورتیرلا آلپینا معادل 10/8 گرم در لیتر به دست آمد.نتیجه گیری: با توجه به سرعت تکثیر مخمر ها و توانایی تولید اسید های چرب توسط آن ها، کاندیدا گلابراتا گزینه مناسبی برای تولید چربی می باشد.
چکیده انگلیسی:
Background & Objectives: Oils extracted from microorganisms (SCO) are preferable to vegetable oils due to containing more gamma-linolenic acid, more stability against oxidation, and less content of residual pesticides. The oils can be used as dietary supplements. The aim of this study was molecular identification of lipid-producing yeasts and molds in soil and optimization of fat production by Candida glabrata using the Taguchi design.Materials & Methods: Several yeasts and molds were isolated from the soil samples of groves and near oil change shops and restaurants. Molecular identification was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Among them, the highest lipid producers were selected and using the Taguchi design. The best conditions in terms of carbon and nitrogen sources as well as pH for maximum lipid production were determined. The fat obtained was examined by gas chromatography with a mass spectrometer detector (GC-MS).Results: Among the identified species, C. glabrata had the highest lipid production. Production of palmitoleic, palmitic, linoleic, linolenic, and stearic acid was proven in this study. Lipid production in C. glabrata and Mortierella alpina was 6.9 and10.8 grams per litre, respectively.Conclusion: Due to the rapid reproduction in yeasts and their ability to produce fatty acids, C. glabrata is a suitable option for fat production.
