厌氧颗粒污泥合成纳米钯及强化降解双氯芬酸性能

为了提高厌氧颗粒污泥(AGS)对难降解卤代有机物的还原降解能力,本文研究了厌氧颗粒污泥原位还原制备纳米钯构建载钯型厌氧颗粒污泥(Pd-AGS)的方法与条件,以及Pd-AGS在不同电子供体及烘干方式下对双氯芬酸(DCF)的降解特性.研究表明,当Pd(II)浓度为50～200 mg·L~(-1),Pd/生物量比为1/40～1/10时,被颗粒污泥还原的Pd(II)超过90%,且Pd/生物量比越高,与污泥微生物结合的纳米钯(Pd NPs)越多;添加氧化还原介体蒽醌-2,6-二磺酸(AQDS)不能加快Pd(II)的还原速率,但可以使与胞外聚合物(EPS)结合的Pd NPs增多.Pd NPs的负载显著强化了AGS对DCF的降解性能,甲酸钠和氢气都能够作为电子供体激活Pd-AGS降解DCF,氢气更为有效.氢气存在下,初始浓度为20 mg·L~(-1) DCF在90 min降解率达到96.47%,而不载钯的AGS最终对DCF的降解率仅为16.19%.烘干处理会降低Pd-AGS对DCF的降解效率,但相比121℃和600℃的烘干方式,冷冻干燥和80℃烘干方法对Pd-AGS的降解性能影响较小.Pd-AGS将微生物降解性能与纳米钯的催化性能相结合,提高了对卤代难降解有机物的降解能力.

封装型Pd@S-1催化剂中Pd状态对低浓度甲烷催化氧化性能的影响

在甲烷催化燃烧反应中，封装型Pd@S-1催化剂表现出高活性和高稳定性，活性组分Pd的状态是影响其活性的重要因素.本文通过乙二胺辅助原位封装法合成Pd@S-1催化剂，通过调节催化剂后处理温度和气氛调控Pd状态，探究其对甲烷催化燃烧反应的影响.性能评价结果表明，相比空气焙烧后处理方式，氢气还原的Pd@S-1-H₂催化剂表现出更高的活性，其甲烷完全转换温度(T₁₀₀)为390℃.催化剂表征结果表明活性的提高主要归因于H₂还原可降低Pd颗粒尺寸、增加活性Pd物种和活性氧物种.此外，水蒸气影响实验结果表明Pd@S-1-H₂催化剂表现出优异的抗水性.因此，采用氢气还原处理不仅能够提高Pd@S-1催化剂的甲烷催化氧化活性，同时能够有效抑制其发生水中毒.

氧化铜纳米颗粒对水稻幼苗根系代谢毒性的研究

为阐明氧化铜纳米颗粒(CuO NPs)暴露对植物生长的影响,分别用CuO NPs悬浮液、氧化铜大颗粒(CuO BPs)悬浮液和硫酸铜(CuSO4·5H2O)溶液进行处理,以蒸馏水(d H2O)作为对照,水培水稻幼苗,研究了CuO NPs对水稻幼苗根系相关生理生化行为的影响.结果表明,不同处理对水稻幼苗根系的影响有很大差异,经CuO NPs悬浮液处理后,水稻幼根受损较严重,根系活力明显降低,根内丙二醛(MDA)含量和过氧化氢(H2O2)含量显著升高,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和过氧化物酶(POD)活性明显增强.不同处理对水稻幼苗根的影响依次为:CuO NPs>CuSO4·5H2O>CuO BPs>d H2O.说明氧化铜纳米颗粒对水稻根的毒害作用不仅是由于释放离子引起的,纳米颗粒本身也起着重要作用,氧化损伤可能是CuO NPs的主要致毒机制之一.     

Non-specific association between filamentous bacteria and fungus-growing ants

Fungus-growing ants and their fungal cultivar form a highly evolved mutualism that is negatively affected by the specialized parasitic fungus Escovopsis. Filamentous Pseudonocardia bacteria occurring on the cuticle of attine ants have been proposed to form a mutualistic interaction with these ants in which they are vertically transmitted (i.e. from parent to offspring colonies). Given a strictly vertical transmission of Pseudonocardia, the evolutionary theory predicts a reduced genetic variability of symbionts among ant lineages. The aim of this study was to verify whether actinomycetes, which occur on Acromyrmex octospinosus leaf-cutting ants, meet this expectation by comparing their genotypic variability with restriction fragment length polymorphisms. Multiple actinomycete strains could be isolated from both individual ant workers and colonies (one to seven strains per colony). The colony specificity of actinomycete communities was high: Only 15% of all strains were isolated from more than one colony, and just 5% were present in both populations investigated. Partial sequencing of 16S ribosomal deoxyribonucleic acid of two of the isolated strains assigned both of them to the genus Streptomyces. Actinomycetes could also be isolated from workers of the two non-attine ant species Myrmica rugulosa and Lasius flavus. Sixty-two percent of the strains derived from attine ants and 80% of the strains isolated from non-attine ants inhibited the growth of Escovopsis. Our data suggest that the association between attine ants and their actinomycete symbionts is less specific then previously thought. Soil-dwelling actinomycetes may have been dynamically recruited from the environment (horizontal transmission), probably reflecting an adaptation to a diverse community of microbial pathogens.

Indigenous bacteria may interfere with the biocontrol of plant diseases

Prodigiosin is a reddish antibiotic pigment that plays an important role in the biocontrol of plant diseases by the bacterium Serratia marcescens. However, its activity is unstable under agricultural conditions; further, it can be degraded by various environmental factors. To examine the effect of epiphytic microbes on the stability of prodigiosin used for biological control processes, we collected a total of 1,280 bacterial isolates from the phylloplane of cyclamen and tomato plants. Approximately 72% of the bacterial strains isolated from the cyclamen plants and 66% of those isolated from the tomato plants grew on minimal agar medium containing 100 μg ml⁻¹ prodigiosin. Certain isolates obtained from both plant species exhibited prodigiosin-degrading activity. We compared the 16S rRNA gene sequences derived from the isolates with sequences in a database. The comparison revealed that the sequences determined for the prodigiosin-degrading isolates were homologous to those of the genera Pseudomonas, Caulobacter, Rhizobium, Sphingomonas, Janthinobacterium, Novosphingobium, and Rathayibacter. These results indicate that indigenous epiphytic microorganisms may interfere with the interaction between plant pathogens and biocontrol agents by degrading the antibiotics produced by the agents.     

Nitric oxide removal by wastewater bacteria in a biotrickling filter

Nitric oxide(NO) is one of the most important air pollutants in atmosphere mainly emitted from combustion source. A biotrickling filter was designed and operated to remove NO from an air stream using bacteria extracted from the sewage sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant. To obtain the best operation conditions for the biotrickling filter, orthogonal experiments(L9(34)) were designed. Inlet oxygen concentration was found to be the most significant factor of the biotrickling filter and has a significant negative effect on the system. The optimal conditions of the biotrickling filter occurred at a temperature of 40℃, a pH of 8.0 and a chemical oxygen demand of 165 mg/L in the recycled water with no oxygen in the system. The bacteria sample was detected by DNA sequencing technology and showed 93%–98% similarity to Pseudomonas mendocina. Moreover, a full gene sequencing results indicated the bacterium was a brand new strain and named as P. mendocina DLHK. This strain can transfer nitrate to organic nitrogen. The result suggested the assimilation nitrogen process in this system. Through the isotope experimental analysis, two intermediate products(15NO and 15N2O) were found. The results indicated the denitrification function and capability of the biotrickling filter in removing NO.     

Quantification of viable bacteria in wastewater treatment plants by using propidium monoazide combined with quantitative PCR (PMA-qPCR)

The detection of viable bacteria in wastewater treatment plants(WWTPs) is very important for public health, as WWTPs are a medium with a high potential for waterborne disease transmission. The aim of this study was to use propidium monoazide(PMA) combined with the quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PMA-qPCR) to selectively detect and quantify viable bacteria cells in full-scale WWTPs in China. PMA was added to the concentrated WWTP samples at a final concentration of 100 μmol/L and the samples were incubated in the dark for 5 min, and then lighted for 4 min prior to DNA extraction and qPCR with specific primers for Escherichia coli and Enterococci, respectively. The results showed that PMA treatment removed more than 99% of DNA from non-viable cells in all the WWTP samples, while matrices in sludge samples markedly reduced the effectiveness of PMA treatment. Compared to qPCR, PMA-qPCR results were similar and highly linearly correlated to those obtained by culture assay, indicating that DNA from non-viable cells present in WWTP samples can be eliminated by PMA treatment, and that PMA-qPCR is a reliable method for detection of viable bacteria in environmental samples. This study demonstrated that PMA-qPCR is a rapid and selective detection method for viable bacteria in WWTP samples, and that WWTPs have an obvious function in removing both viable and non-viable bacteria. The results proved that PMA-qPCR is a promising detection method that has a high potential for application as a complementary method to the standard culture-based method in the future.
