摘要:
A process for production of unsaturated fatty acid-containing oils which is characterized by culturing a microorganism belonging to the genus Mortierella subgenus Mortierella in a medium containing a nitrogen source derived from soybean, and collecting the unsaturated fatty acid-containing oil from the cultured product. The oils are obtained with a low 24,25-methylenecholest-5-en-3β-ol content.
摘要:
A process for producing lipids containing arachidonic acid comprising culturing a microorganism in which ω3 desaturase activity has been decreased or is lacking at a temperature lower than the optimum growth temperature from the start of culturing or after culturing at the optimum growth temperature, said microorganism being obtained by the mutation treatment of a microorganism capable of producing arachidonic acid and belonging to the genus Mortierella and the like; and then recovering lipids containing arachidonic acid from the culture.

摘要:
A process for controlling the mycelial morphology of a microorganism belonging to the genus Mortierella during culturing and a process for producing unsaturated fatty acids and a lipid containing them by using a culture medium for culturing a microorganism in which phosphate ions, potassium ions, sodium ions, magnesium ions, and calcium ions in the culture medium are in the range of 5 to 60 mM, 5 to 60 mM, 2 to 50 mM, 0.5 to 9 mM, and 0.5 to 12 mM, respectively, characterized in that the microorganism belonging to the genus Mortierella is cultured in a culture medium containing phosphate ions in the range of 5 to 60 mM, potassium ions in the range of 5 to 60 mM, sodium ions in the range of 2 to 50 mM, magnesium ions in the range of 0.5 to 9 mM, and calcium ions in the range of 0.5 to 12 mM, respectively, to produce unsaturated fatty acids and the lipid containing them, and the culture medium for culturing a microorganism having phosphate ions, potassium ions, sodium ions, magnesium ions, and calcium ions in the range of 5 to 60 mM, 5 to 60 mM, 2 to 50 mM, 0.5 to 9 mM, and 0.5 to 12 mM, respectively.
摘要:
Edible oil containing arachidonic acid obtained from microorganisms belonging to the subgenus Mortierella of the genus Mortierella and being capable of producing arachidonic acid are provided. The oil contain little unsaponifiable matters and, above all, the smallest possible amount of sterol with cyclopropane structure which have not been recognized as food components, and are suitable for the production of foods, in particular, infant formula.Arachidonic acid-containing edible oil originating in microorganisms containing not more than 0.8% by weight, preferably not more than 0.6% by weight of unsaponifiable matters and 20% by weight or more of arachidonic acid. Further, these edible oil contain not more than 0.3% by weight, preferably not more than 0.15% by weight of 24,25-methylenecholest-5-en-3 .beta.-ol. The microorganisms are those belonging to the subgenus Mortierella of the genus Mortierella and being capable of producing arachidonic acid. These microorganisms belong to the species alpine of the genus Mortierella. Foods including the arachidonic acid-containing edible oil. Formula for premature infants, formula for infants, foods for infants, and foods for pregnant women and nursing mothers, including the arachidonic acid-containing edible oil.
