Description
Summary:The deep-sea bacterium strain FA13 was isolated from the sediment of the South Atlantic Ocean and identified as Bacillus circulans based on 16S ribosomal DNA sequence. Through liquid fermentation with five media, the cell-free supernatant fermented with ISP2 showed the highest inhibition activities against mycelial growth of Aspergillus parasiticus mutant strain NFRI-95 and accumulation of norsolorinic acid, a precursor for aflatoxin production. Based on ISP2, uniform design was used to optimize medium formula and fermentation conditions. After optimization, the inhibition efficacy of the 20-time diluted supernatant against A. parasiticus NFRI-95 mycelial growth and aflatoxin production was increased from 0–23.1% to 100%. Moreover, compared to the original protocol, medium cost and fermentation temperature were significantly reduced, and dependence on seawater was completely relieved, thus preventing the fermentor from corrosion. This is the first report of a deep-sea microorganism which can inhibit A. parasiticus NFRI-95 mycelial growth and aflatoxin production.
