The present invention discloses a hypocrellin derivative substituted both in a pen-position and in a 2-position by an amino, and a preparation method and use thereof. A general structural formula of the derivative is as represented by formulas I-a to I-d: ##STR00001## The hypocrellin derivative substituted both in a peri-position and in a 2-position by an amino prepared in the present invention has a maximum absorption wavelength of 600-650 nm and a molar extinction coefficient reaching about 20000-40000 M.sup.−1cm.sup.−1. Compared with unmodified hypocrellin or hypocrellin having only a 2-position modified, an absorption spectrum of the derivative is significantly red-shifted and the molar extinction coefficient is greatly improved, and the derivative can efficiently produce reactive oxygen species such as singlet oxygen in a photosensitive condition. In the same condition, the hypocrellin derivative substituted both in a pen-position and in a 2-position by an amino involved in the present invention, when used as a photosensitizer, has a stronger ability to photo-dynamically inactivate tumor cells than the first and second generation commercial photosensitizers.

Esterquats find major applications as fabric softeners. After Tallow fatty acids and Palm oil fatty acids, fatty acids from sustainable sources like Rice bran fatty acids (RBFA) are desired. RBFA is formed as a by-product during refining of Rice bran oil and hence it is contained in the non edible portion of the oil. The production of high quality esterquats from this by-product is challenging, but the invention describes a process to produce high quality esterquats having low odour and a low acid value. This enhances easy formulation of various products and better customer acceptance. Liquid esterquats produced from RBFA enable e.g. cold processing for fabric softener formulations.

A control device performs control of a culture condition in production of an organic compound by a fermentation method. The control device executes processing a plurality of times to acquire culture data, to calculate, using the acquired culture data, a plurality of candidates for a culture condition set in advance, and a linear model set in advance that outputs a production amount of an organic compound at a future time, the production amount at the future time for each of the candidates, to determine an optimum candidate out of the candidates using the calculated production amount at the future time for each of the candidates and a target production amount of the organic compound at the future time set in advance, and to change the culture condition to the determined candidate. The linear model and the target production amount are set for each time.
