Title: **Shinichi Sugimoto: Innovator in Microbial Oil Production**

Introduction

Shinichi Sugimoto is a prominent inventor based in Tokyo, Japan, known for his groundbreaking work in the field of microbial oil production. With an impressive portfolio of 22 patents, Sugimoto has made significant contributions to biotechnology and sustainable resources.

Latest Patents

Among his latest patents is the innovative method for producing microbial oil containing fatty acids derived from stramenopiles. This microbial oil is obtained from Labyrinthulomycetes, where a gene responsible for fatty acid biosynthesis has been disrupted or inhibited, leading to a high accumulation of fatty acids. The composition of this microbial oil includes vital fatty acids such as:

- 1.5% or more of arachidonic acid (AA)

- 0.2% or more of dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA)

- 0.04% or more of eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA)

- 3.8% or more of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)

- 13.7% or less of n-6 docosapentaenoic acid (n-6DPA)

- 43.9% or less of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)

Additionally, he has developed a method to extract microbial oil from stramenopiles that have been transformed with a gene linked to fatty acid synthesis. The resulting oil must satisfy several requirements regarding the composition of essential fatty acids.

Career Highlights

Sugimoto's career is marked by significant positions at notable institutions, including Takata Corporation and the Kyushu University National University Corporation. His dedication to innovation in microbial oil production has positioned him as a key player in the biotechnology field.
