（超）高压对微生物的影响及其诱变效应探讨

(超)高压对微生物有多方面的影响,它不仅可使微生物细胞体积形态、细胞组分发生变化,还可使微生物的基因表达和核酸结构及其生物学功能发生改变。(超)高压的这些生物学效应,使其不仅可以应用到食品杀菌、保藏及某些加工过程,而且在微生物菌种诱变方面具有很大的应用潜力。这是因为(超)高压既然可以使核酸发生变化,那么它诱导微生物发生突变就很有可能。现从(超)高压对微生物的影响出发,并结合国内外有关实例及作者的研究工作,初步探讨其诱变育种的可行性。

Mutation effect of ultra high pressure on microbe

(Ultra) high pressure had many influences on microbe. It could regulate the expression of gene and protein, influence DNA's structure and function as well as change cell morphology and cell component. These effects not only make (ultra) high pressure to be applied into food sterilization, conserving and some processing, but also indicate it would play an important role in mutagenic breeding of microbe. Pressure can change the structure and function of microbe, yet it is possible that (ultra) high pressure could induce mutation of microbe. Now the feasibility of (ultra) high pressure's mutation effect was discussed according to the effects of it on microbe, some examples and author's studying.
