In this study, plate transparent circle by Davis method was introduce firstly screening ?-Rhamnosidase high-yield strain. The spore-sprouted Aspergillus niger 8-hour were mutagenized by ethyl methane sulphonate and pre-screened via transparent circle. 11% mutants yield 40% higher of ?-rhamnosidase than the original strain. A high-yield strain, T-226 with the highest ?-rhamnosidase activity of 373.4 U/mL was finally selected from these potential high-yield mutants after rescreened by shake flask fermentation twice. When the T-226 strain was fermented in 5 L bioreactor, the enzyme activity could reach to 631.9 U/mL after 84 h. Thus, the established screening method is highly efficient to isolate ?-rhamnosidase high-yield mutant of A. niger.

Objective To study the change of the contractile response of human umbilical artery smooth muscle cells (HUASMCs) during the heat stress, and explore the effect of the antioxidant on the changes. Methods HUASMCs were randomly divided into control group, heat stress group, antioxidant preprocessing group. Cells were stimulated by norepinephrine (NE) at a low concentration (0.05mg/L) and at a normal concentration (1.0mg/L) and cultured in the thermostatic water bath (41℃) for 0.5, 1, 1.5 or 2h, respectively. After stimulated by NE, proportion of the cell surface area contraction was measured to reflect the contractile response of each group. Results Compared with control group, regardless of the NE concentration: in heat stress group, contractile response at 1h increased significantly (P<0.05), while at 2h, it was reduced significantly (P<0.05 or 0.01). In the antioxidant preprocessing group, the contractile response was reduced significantly from heat stress to 2h after heat stress (P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in contractile response between different NE concentrations in the control group and heat stress group (P>0.05), but in the antioxidant preprocessing group, the contractile response was more significant to the normal NE concentration than to the low NE concentration (P<0.05 or 0.01). Regardless of the NE concentration, the contractile response was lower in the antioxidant preprocessing group than in the heat stress group. Conclusions In the course of heat stress, the contractile response of HUASMCs presents as time-related change. The usage of antioxidant may correct the over-response of HUASMCs to NE in the early heat stress stage, but cannot correct the reduction of the contractile response in the middle and advanced stage.
