The fermentation culture comprises transferring 6% seed solution to 200L volume fermentation tank, and filling 100L sterilized preferred fermentation medium (glucose 25g/L, peptone 21.5g/L, yeast extract 11g/L, ammonium sulfate 6g/L, sodium aspartate 100mM, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 7g/L, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate 14g/L, magnesium sulfate 1g/L, citric acid monohydrate 1.1g/L, vitamin B complex 0.1g/L, trace elements 2mL/L (manganese sulfate 1.5g/L, ferrous sulfate 7g/L, cobalt chloride 0.8g/L, zinc chloride 4g/L, sodium molybdate 0.1g/L, calcium chloride 1.1g/L, dissolved in 5mol/L HCI solution), and initial pH 7.2. The fermentation culture condition is that the temperature is controlled at 37 ℃, the initial rotating speed is 200rpm, and the initial air quantity is 100L/min. The pH value of the whole fermentation system is controlled at 7.2 by automatically feeding ammonia water, dissolved oxygen is maintained to be not lower than 20% by stirring and changing ventilation, the related rotating speed is 200rpm-800rpm, the fermentation is carried out for 52 hours, OD 600 is detected by sampling per hour, the wet weight of thalli is detected, the residual sugar amount is calculated, when the dissolved oxygen is lower than 70%, glucose with the concentration of 40% (mass percent) is fed, peptone is not fed, and the whole fermentation is controlled by adopting control feedback to adjust the feeding speed.

The OD 600, the Ikeduopin yield, and the wet cell weight of the fermentation broths of each experimental group are shown in Table 18.
Table 18 comparison of OD 600, ectoin yield, and cell wet weight of each experimental group
The comparative analysis of the experimental group 1, the experimental group 2 and the experimental group 3 can obtain that the growth performance and the production performance of the engineering strain of the ectoin have a great relationship with the glucose content, when the glucose content is low, the lack of a carbon source leads to the reduction of the activity of the thallus, and conversely, the excessive residual sugar content leads to high osmotic pressure so as to influence the growth and the production performance of the thallus. In the experimental group 1, when the dissolved oxygen is lower than 70%, the whole process of feeding glucose with the concentration of 40% is started to control the residual sugar in the fermentation liquid to be 2g/L, the fermentation OD 600 value of the engineering strain reaches 119, the yield of the ectoin is 136.68g/L, and the fermentation performance is optimal.
Analysis of the comparison of experimental group 1, experimental group 4, experimental group 5 and experimental group 6 resulted in a dual stream addition of supplemental carbon source and nitrogen source with a positive effect of carbon to nitrogen ratio on the yields of ectoin. In the experimental group 6, too much nitrogen source can lead the thallus to grow too vigorously, the pH is too high, the accumulation of metabolic products is not facilitated, and the insufficient nitrogen source can lead the thallus to have little propagation quantity and influence the yield of the ectoin. In experiment group 4, too much carbon source tends to form a low pH, and if insufficient carbon source tends to cause cell senescence and autolysis. In the experimental group 5, when the dissolved oxygen is lower than 70%, the whole process of feeding glucose with the concentration of 40% is started to control the residual sugar to be 2g/L, and the constant-speed feeding of 20% peptone to be 160mL/h is started, the yield of the ectoin is 176.32g/L, and the fermentation performance is optimal. In addition, the yields of ectoin are improved by 32.89% in experimental group 5 compared with experimental group 1.
The invention does not need to use inducers such as IPTG to induce the strains to express the synthesis of the ectoine in the fermentation process, thereby avoiding the problems of high IPTG cost and toxicity which are not suitable for industrial fermentation production of the ectoine. The fermentation process of the invention greatly reduces the cost of each liter of culture medium, shortens the fermentation time effectively and provides technical support for realizing industrial production.
