葡萄糖补料对白腐真菌P.chrysosporium产木质素降解酶的影响

为了提高木质素降解酶的产量,采用氮限制培养基(C/N=56.0/8.8),研究了葡萄糖补料对P.chrysosporium产木质素降解酶的影响.结果表明,在培养第1d即接种24h后进行葡萄糖补料,可以刺激菌丝体的生长和产酶,补料浓度达到2g·L-1时,补料体系中的MnP酶活可提高至空白对照样(不进行补料)的2.5倍.同时,对葡萄糖分批补料方式进行的试验结果显示,培养过程中每24h进行1次补料,葡萄糖补料终浓度为1.5g·L-1的补料方式,与每48h的补料方式相比,产酶效果更好.MnP酶活峰值和达到峰值时酶的总产量可提高至空白对照样(不进行补料)的2.7倍和3.0倍,且酶活能够在200U·L-1以上稳定4d.实验结果说明,葡萄糖补料可以有效刺激白腐真菌产酶,且连续低浓度葡萄糖补料可获得较优的产酶效果.     

白腐真菌批式发酵动力学模型研究

为了进一步认识白腐真菌发酵产酶机理并指导相关发酵工艺设计,在一系列试验研究的基础上,建立了描述黄孢原毛平革菌批式发酵过程的动力学模型,并采用自由悬浮和固定化2种培养条件下的试验数据分别回归了模型各参数.模拟计算结果表明,生物量、葡萄糖、氨氮、木质素酶浓度的的计算值与实测值的偏差在15%以内.对比2种培养条件下的模型参数发现,二者得到的最大生物量浓度均为1.78 g/L;固定化培养菌体的比增长速率值(0.668 3 d-1)大于自由悬浮培养值(0.514 4d-1);自由悬浮培养中绝大部分葡萄糖消耗于非生长菌体代谢,固定化培养中则部分葡萄糖用于菌体生长,且氨氮消耗更快;菌体的产酶过程与生长无关;自由悬浮培养条件下,菌丝小球可合成MnP(231 U/L),其MnP合成能力为115.8 U·(g·d)-1,且高峰后依然可以保持26.1 U·(g·d)-1,适合采用补料-分批发酵的模式提高MnP的产量及其发酵效率;固定化培养条件下,菌体可同时合成MnP(410 U/L)和LiP(721 U/L),但其LiP和MnP合成能力在酶活高峰之后明显下降,分别由248.9 U·(g·d)-1和80.1 U·(g·d)-1下降到0 U·(g·d)-1和6.04 U·(g·d)-1,故而在考虑补料-分批发酵模式时,补料时机应选择在培养中期的LiP与MnP峰值之前.     

Hg~(2+)对剩余污泥厌氧消化过程中物质释放的影响

以某采用A/O生物除磷工艺的污水处理厂排出的富磷剩余污泥为研究对象,设计两组厌氧消化比较试验,考察了Hg2+的毒性对剩余污泥厌氧消化过程中SCOD、VSS、SOP等相关指标的影响,藉此讨论相关物质的释放机制。结果发现,Hg2+的投加可以促进剩余污泥的水解,造成了短期内VSS的快速下降以及SOP的快速释放。当HgCl2投加量为0.25 g/L时,这个短期的时间尺度持续4 d左右;4 d以后,由于HgCl2对产甲烷菌、产酸菌以及聚磷菌均会产生不利影响,HgCl2开始抑制消化过程的进行,导致SCOD积累,VSS、SOP等释放速度减缓。这表明HgCl2可以促进水解释磷,抑制生物释磷。总体而言,投加HgCl2对剩余污泥中磷的释放是不利的。     

白腐真菌培养条件对其分泌木质素降解酶的影响

应用摇瓶试验研究了不同白腐真菌培养条件对其产酶的影响.通过控制不同转速、投加载体等方式考察了白腐真菌的产酶情况.结果表明,在悬浮培养方式下,转速为160r/min时获得的锰过氧化物酶最高(481.6U/L),其酶活是静置、120r/min条件下培养的65倍和43倍;投加载体后,载体固定化培养获得的木质素过氧化物酶酶活是悬浮培养的71倍,载体投加量对其产酶影响很大,只有当载体处于非浸没状态时才有利于酶活产生,否则酶活极低.因此,选择载体固定化—非浸没—振荡培养方式培养白腐真菌可获得更高的产酶量和酶活.     

中药渣与城市污泥好氧共堆肥的效能

以中药渣与城市污泥为原料进行共堆肥实验,考察了不同物料质量配比与中药渣不同时间投加条件下,堆体在堆肥过程中温度、有机质、挥发氨、蛋白酶活性等理化指标的变化情况,确定了最佳的物料质量配比与中药渣投加时间;同时探讨了中药渣投加对堆肥过程中溶解性有机质(DOM)及微生物群落结构的影响.结果表明,中药渣作为外加碳源投加后(60 g中药渣+300 g污泥),提高了堆体的温度,减少了氨的挥发,且提高了堆体中蛋白酶的活性,氨的挥发量减少了35.9%,蛋白酶的含量提高了80.5%.同时中药渣可作为调理剂,在堆肥前期投加,促进了有机质的降解,从而加快了堆肥的进程.而通过对DOM的紫外-可见和荧光光谱特征分析表明,投加中药渣有利于提高堆肥的腐殖化程度;同时通过磷脂脂肪酸(PLFA)分析可以发现,投加中药渣后使得堆体中革兰氏阴性菌与真菌的数量有所提高.     

嗜碱细菌复合碳源条件下对麦草木质素的降解

在碱性液体培养条件下(pH≈10.5), 研究复合碳源共代谢最佳综合条件下嗜碱性木质素降解细菌6号菌株产酶、降解能力及菌株的生长状况.结果显示,虫漆酶(Laccase)在培养的第4天酶活达到最高值2915.37U/L、锰依赖过氧化物酶(MnP)在培养的第8天酶活达到最高值1152.88U/L,培养10d麦草中木质素降解49.84%.同时通过扫描电镜分析探讨了6号菌株降解木质素的微观过程,证明了6号菌株优先降解木质素的特性和降解方式.     

白腐真菌木质素降解酶的反应器发酵

为了获得更高的白腐真菌木质素降解酶的产量和相应的控制策略,应用5L搅拌罐生物反应器对氮限制下(C/N=56/2.2)P.chrysosporium产木质素降解酶进行了放大研究.结果表明,在分批发酵试验中,锰过氧化物酶(MnP)和漆酶(Lac)分别在培养第6d和第7d达到峰值,其酶活随时间的变化规律与摇瓶试验基本相同;而采用氮限制液体培养基进行补料没有获得更高的酶活,因此,可以得出采用发酵液体培养基作为补料液不利于白腐真菌持续产酶.另外,在分批发酵和分批补料发酵过程中,均发现体系pH值变化与白腐真菌生长和次生代谢产酶具有较好的相关性,当白腐真菌进入次生代谢阶段开始产酶时,体系pH值开始下降,随着发酵后期酶活的降低,pH值下降的幅度也逐渐变小,当体系酶活接近为0.0U/L时,pH值基本不再变化.因此,在实际发酵过程中,可以依据体系pH的变化间接了解白腐真菌的生长和产酶情况,而分批补料策略还有待于进一步研究.     

锰过氧化物酶的固态发酵及其对染料的脱色作用

采用稻壳作为基质,利用裂褶菌F17固态发酵产锰过氧化物酶(MnP),通过正交实验对发酵条件进行优化,并对5种不同结构类型的染料进行脱色.结果显示,含水率、温度、Mn2 、Cu2 对裂褶菌F17产MnP有显著影响;MnP发酵的最优化条件为稻壳27g、黄豆粉3g、MnSO40.4mg·g-1、含水率150%、接种量50%、培养温度22℃,pH不调节,优化后酶活达到16.39 U·g-1,比优化前的酶活9.20 U·g-1提高了78.2%.优化后的发酵体系对染料刚果红、茜素红、Poly R-478、中性红和结晶紫的24h脱色率分别达到92.6%、90.3%、93.1%、87.3%和95.6%.     

烷基多苷促进污泥水解产酸的研究

采用向污泥中投加生物表面活性剂烷基多苷(APG)的方法,研究了APG投加量和水解时间对剩余污泥水解产酸过程的影响.结果表明,APG显著降低污泥表面张力,强化污泥水解,在最适投加量(以TSS计,下同)0.2 g·g-1下,SCOD、蛋白质和可溶性糖的浓度均在12h内达到最大,分别由初始的4 280.2、1 122.9和246.5 mg·L-1上升到6 481.1、1 639.3和1 205.8mg·L-1,同时短链脂肪酸(SCFAs)浓度由1 309.9 mg·L-1增加为2 221.6 mg·L-1,且SCFA的组分分布随之改变,APG投加量越大,SCFAs达到最大浓度所需时间也随之延长.随着APG投加量的增大,α-葡萄糖苷酶相对活力由1.5升至2.5,而蛋白酶相对活力在低投加量下由1.4升至1.9,高投加量下降至1.5.不论APG是否存在,α-葡萄糖苷酶和蛋白酶的活力在达最高后都随着水解时间的延长而逐渐降低.整个过程中pH均呈现先减小后增大的趋势.     

儿茶酚抑制藻细胞活性过程中IOM的三维荧光特性

以天然水体中藻类为研究对象,研究了儿茶酚对藻类的抑制效应,并采用三维荧光法分析了抑藻过程中胞内有机物的释放及降解情况。水样A和水样B分别采自某护城河和一景观水体。结果显示,儿茶酚能够有效抑制实际水体中藻细胞活性,当儿茶酚终浓度为10 mg/L培养6 d后,水样A和水样B的抑藻率分别达90%和94%,且抑藻率随着投加浓度的增加、培养时间的延长相应增加。在投加儿茶酚后,水样类蛋白荧光峰强度显著增加,但随着培养时间的延长,峰强均有所降低,细胞释放的类蛋白物质发生降解。当投加儿茶酚浓度低于1 mg/L时,藻细胞活性受轻度抑制,会释放类富里酸物质,当儿茶酚投加浓度高于5 mg/L,藻细胞活性受到强烈抑制,不会释放类富里酸物质。投加儿茶酚会增大水样COD浓度,但对水样TN浓度没有影响。     

Toxic effects of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination on nifH gene in soil

Toxic effects of two agrochemicals on nifH gene in agricultural black soil were investigated using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis （DGGE） and sequencing approaches in a microcosm experiment. Changes of soil nifH gene diversity and composition were examined following the application of acetochlor, methamidophos and their combination. Acetochlor reduced the nifH gene diversity （both in gene richness and diversity index values） and caused changes in the nifH gene composition. The effects of acetochlor on nifH gene were strengthened as the concentration of acetochlor increased. Cluster analysis of DGGE banding patterns showed that nifH gene composition which had been affected by low concentration of acetochlor （50 mg/kg） recovered firstly. Methamidophos reduced nifH gene richness that except at 4 weeks. The medium concentration of methamidophos （150 mg/kg） caused the most apparent changes in nifH gene diversity at the first week while the high concentration of methamidophos （250 mg/kg） produced prominent effects on nifH gene diversity in the following weeks. Cluster analysis showed that minimal changes of nifH gene composition were found at 1 week and maximal changes at 4 weeks. Toxic effects of acetochlor and methamidophos combination on nifH gene were also apparent. Different nifH genes （bands） responded differently to the impact of agrochemicals： four individual bands were eliminated by the application of the agrochemicals, five bands became predominant by the stimulation of the agrochemicals, and four bands showed strong resistance to the influence of the agrochemicals. Fifteen prominent bands were partially sequenced, yielding 15 different nifH sequences, which were used for phylogenetic reconstructions. All sequences were affiliated with the alpha- and beta-proteobacteria, showing higher similarity to eight different diazotrophic genera.     

Arsenic uptake by arbuscular mycorrhizal maize （Zea mays L.） grown in an arsenic-contaminated soil with added phosphorus

The effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus (Glomus mosseae) and phosphorus (P) addition (100 mg/kg soil) on arsenic (As) uptake by maize plants (Zea mays L.) from an As-contaminated soil were examined in a glasshouse experiment.Non-mycorrhizal and zero-P addition controls were included.Plant biomass and concentrations and uptake of As,P,and other nutrients,AM colonization,root lengths,and hyphal length densities were determined.The results indicated that addition of P significantly inhibited root colonization and development of extraradical mycelium.Root length and dry weight both increased markedly with mycorrhizal colonization under the zero-P treatments,but shoot and root biomass of AM plants was depressed by P application.AM fungal inoculation decreased shoot As concentrations when no P was added,and shoot and root As concentrations of AM plants increased 2.6 and 1.4 times with P addition,respectively.Shoot and root uptake of P,Mn,Cu,and Zn increased,but shoot Fe uptake decreased by 44.6%,with inoculation, when P was added.P addition reduced shoot P,Fe,Mn,Cu,and Zn uptake of AM plants,but increased root Fe and Mn uptake of the nonmycorrhizal ones.AM colonization therefore appeared to enhance plant tolerance to As in low P soil,and have some potential for the phytostabilization of As-contaminated soil,however,P application may introduce additional environmental risk by increasing soil As mobility.     

Distribution and ecological effect of mercury in Laogang landfill, Shanghai, China

Laogang landfill near Shanghai is the largest landfill in China, and receives about 10000 t of daily garbage per day, Samples of topsoil and plants were analyzed to evaluate mercury pollution from the landfill. For topsoil samples, there were significant correlations among total mercury （HgT）, combinative mercury （Hgc） and gaseous mercury （HgG）, and content of total organic carbon （TOC）, but, no significantly relationship was found between Hg content and filling time. Hg content changes in vertical profiles with time showed that the average Hgv of profiles 1992, 1996, and 2000 was similar, but their average HgG was quite different. HgT was significantly correlated with Hgc in profile 1992 and 2000, and Hgv was significantly correlated with Hg6 in profile 1996. HgG/Hgv ratio in profile samples decreased in the order of （HgG,/HgT）1992〉（HgG/HgT）1996〉〉（HgG/HgT）2000. A simple outline of Hg release in landfill could be drawn： with increasing of filling time, degradation undergoes different biodegradation, accordingly, gaseous mercury goes through small, more, and small proportion to total mercury. Distribution of Hg in plants was inhomogeneous, following the order of leaf〉root〉stem. The highest value of leaf may be associated with higher atmospheric Hg from landfill. Ligneous plants （e.g. Phyllostachys glanca, Prunus salicina and Ligustrum lucidum） are capable of enriching more Hg than herbaceous plants.     

EDTA-enhanced phytoremediation of lead contaminated soil by Bidens maximowicziana

Phytoremediation is a potential cleanup technology for the removal of heavy metals from contaminated soils.Bidens maximowicziana is a new Pb hyperaccumulator,which not only has remarkable tolerance to Pb but also extraordinary accumulation capacity for Pb.The maximum Pb concentration was 1509.3 mg/kg in roots and 2164.7 mg/kg in overground tissues.The Pb distribution order in the B. maximowicziana was:leaf>stem>root.The effect of amendments on phytoremediation was also studied.The mobility of soil Pb and the Pb concentrations in plants were both increased by EDTA application.Compared with CK(control check),EDTA application promoted translocation of Pb to overground parts of the plant.The Pb concentrations in overground parts of plants was increased from 24.23-680.56 mg/kg to 29.07-1905.57 mg/kg.This research demonstrated that B.maximowicziana appeared to be suitable for phytoremediation of Pb contaminated soil,especially,combination with EDTA.     

Potential of plant polyphenol oxidases in the decolorization and removal of textile and non-textile dyes

In this study an effort has been made to use plant polyphenol oxidases; potato （Solanum tuberosum） and brinjal （Solanum melongena）, for the treatment of various important dyes used in textile and other industries. The ammonium sulphate fractionated enzyme preparations were used to treat a number of dyes under various experimental conditions. Majority of the treated dyes were maximally decolorized at pH 3.0. Some of the dyes were quickly decolorized whereas others were marginally decolorized. The initial first hour was sufficient for the maximum decolorization of dyes. The rate of decolorization was quite slow on long treatment of dyes. Enhancement in the dye decolorization was noticed on increasing the concentration of enzymes. The complex mixtures of dyes were treated with both preparations of polyphenol oxidases in the buffers of varying pH values. Potato polyphenol oxidase was significantly more effective in decolorizing the dyes to higher extent as compared to the enzyme obtained from brinjal polyphenol oxidase. Decolorization of dyes and their mixtures, followed by the formation of an insoluble precipitate, which could be easily removed simply by centrifugation.     

Decomposition of alachlor by ozonation and its mechanism

Decomposition and corresponding mechanism of alachlor, an endocrine disruptor in water by ozonation were investigated. Results showed that alachlor could not be completely mineralized by ozone alone. Many intermediates and final products were formed during the process, including aromatic compounds, aliphatic carboxylic acids, and inorganic ions. In evoluting these products, some of them with weak polarity were qualitatively identified by GC-MS. The information of inorganic ions suggested that the dechlorination was the first and the fastest step in the ozonation of alachlor.     

Enzymatic oxidation of aqueous pentachlorophenol

The influence of the nonionic surfactant Tween 80 on pentachlorophenol （PCP） oxidation catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase was studied. The surfactant was tested at concentrations below and above its critical micelle concentration （CMC）. Enhancement of PCP removal was observed at sub-CMCs. The presence of Tween 80 in the reaction mixture reduced enzyme inactivation which occurred through a combination of free radical attack and sorption by precipitated products. A simple first-order model was able to simulate time profiles for enzyme inactivation in the presence or absence of Tween 80. At supra-CMCs, the surfactant caused noticeable reductions in PCP removal, presumably through micelle partitioning of PCP which precluded the hydrophobic PCP molecule from interacting with the enzyme.

Organochlorine pesticides in soils under different land usage in the Taihu Lake region, China

A field study was conducted in the Taihu Lake region, China in 2004 to reveal the organochlorine pesticide concentrations in soils after the ban of these substances in the year 1983. Thirteen organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) were analyzed in soils from paddy field, tree land and fallow land. Total organochlorine pesticide residues were higher in agricultural soils than in uncultivated fallow land soils. Among all the pesticides, ΣDDX (DDD, DDE and DDT) had the highest concentration for all the soil samples, ranging from 3.10 ng/g to 166.55 ng/g with a mean value of 57.04 ng/g and followed by ΣHCH, ranging from 0.73 ng/g to 60.97 ng/g with a mean value of 24.06 ng/g. Dieldrin, endrin, HCB and α-endosulfan were also found in soils with less than 15 ng/g. Ratios of p,p'-(DDD DDE)/DDT in soils under three land usages were: paddy field ＞ tree land ＞ fallow land, indicating that land usage inlfuenced the degradation of DDT in soils. Ratios of p,p'-(DDD DDE)/DDT ＞1, showing aged residues of DDTs in soils of the Taihu Lake region. The results were discussed with data from a former study that showed very low actual concentrations of HCH and DDT in soils in the Taihu Lake region, but according to the chemical half-lives and their concentrations in soils in 1980s, the concentration of DDT in soils seemed to be underestimated. In any case our data show that the ban on the use of HCH and DDT resulted in a tremendous reduction of these pesticide residues in soils, but there are still high amounts of pesticide residues in soils, which need more remediation processes.     

Single and joint effects of pesticides and mercury on soil urease

The influence of two pesticides including chlorimuron-ethyl and furadan and mercury （Hg） on urease activity in 4 soils （meadow burozem and phaeozem） was investigated. The soils were exposed to various concentrations of the two pesticides and Hg individually and simultaneously. Results showed that there was a close relationship between urease activity and organic matter content in soil. Chlorimuron-ethyl and furadan could both activate urease in the 4 soils. The maximum increment of urease activity by chlorimuronethyl was up to 14%-18%. There was almost an equal increase （up to 13%-21%） in the urease activity by furadan. On the contrary, Hg markedly inhibited soil urease activity. A logarithmic equation was used to describe the relationship （P〈0.05） between the concentration of Hg and the activity of soil urease in the 4 tested soils. Semi-effect dose （ED50） values by the stress of Hg based on the inhibition of soil urease in the 4 soils were 88, 5.5, 24 and 20 mg/kg, respectively, according to the calculation of the corresponding equations. The interactive effect of chlorimuron-ethyl or furadan with metal Hg on soil urease was mainly synergic at the highest tested concentrations.
