The effects of both temperature and dissolved oxygen(DO) on cold active lipase production by batch culture of metagenomic library recombinant clone(CAPL3) from deep-sea sediment were investigated. First, a two-stage temperature control strategy was developed, in which the temperature was kept at 34 ℃ for the first 15 h, and then switched to30 ℃. The cold active lipase activity and productivity reached 315.2 U·ml^-1and 8.08 U·ml^-1·h^-1, respectively,increased by both 14.5% compared to the results obtained with temperature controlled at 30℃. In addition, different DO control modes were conducted, based on the data obtained from the different DO control strategies and analysis of kinetics parameters at different DO levels. A step-wise temperature and DO control strategy were developed to improve lipase production, i.e., temperature and DO level were controlled at 34℃, 30% during 0–15 h;30 ℃, 30% during 15–18 h, and 30 ℃, 20% during 18–39 h. With this strategy, the maximum lipase activity reached 354.6 U·ml^-1at 39 h, which was 28.8% higher than that achieved without temperature and DO control(275.3 U·ml^-1).展开更多
