餐厨垃圾乳酸发酵过程中的微生物多样性分析

采用PCR-DGGE等分析手段,研究了餐厨垃圾乳酸发酵过程中的微生物种群动态变化.结果表明,餐厨垃圾不灭菌而接种的开放式发酵体系中微生物的多样性高于灭菌后接种的非开放式发酵体系,而乳酸产量也是前者高于后者.说明发酵体系中的微生物多样性与乳酸产量有很大的相关性.通过对部分条带的测序可知,餐厨垃圾开放式发酵体系中除含有接种用的嗜淀粉乳杆菌外,还含有很多土著乳酸菌,如Lactobacillus sp.、Lactobacillus casei和Lactobacillus plantarum,以及土著水解菌,如假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas sp.)等,这些土著菌的存在是促进乳酸发酵的重要因素.PCR-DGGE结合技术对于成分复杂的餐厨垃圾中的细菌种群结构的动态变化分析是可行的.     

硫酸盐还原过程中乙酸型代谢方式的形成及其稳定性

通过产酸脱硫反应器处理高浓度硫酸盐废水的连续流试验,考察了不同试验阶段硫酸盐去除率和产气量稳定期,液相末端产物中挥发酸组成的变化、乙酸的分布特征、微生物种群组成和种群间关系.试验结果表明,各试验阶段液相末端产物中乙酸的分布比例高达50%～82%,微生物群体呈现特定的乙酸型代谢方式.乙酸型代谢方式本质上是产酸相反应器处理硫酸盐废水过程中,硫酸盐还原菌(SRB)与产酸菌(AB)建立起生物链式协同代谢关系,并通过非完全氧化型方式分解有机物,从而在末端产物中积累大量乙酸.乙酸型代谢方式的形成取决于利用乙酸的硫酸盐还原菌(ASRB)的竞争能力和它对乙酸的利用能力.乙酸型代谢方式可以为后续产甲烷相反应器提供适宜的底物,对提高硫酸盐废水处理系统的效率和运行稳定性具有重要意义.     

天然水体基于分子生物学的微生物生态学研究

我国天然水体富营养化严重,水体生态系统已失去平衡。作为水生态系统中分解者的微生物,对于水体自净和修复发挥着极其重要的作用,因而了解微生物群落的组成和其动态变化、以及与水环境之间的相互关系对开展水环境生物修复研究是非常必要的。随着生物技术的发展,分子生物学技术被广泛应用于微生物生态学研究。文章主要介绍了分子生物学技术在天然水体微生物生态学中的应用以及天然水体中环境因子与微生物群落的关系。DGGE和TRFLP技术由于具有操作方便、可同时处理大量样品、系统性和有效性强等优点,因而被较多地应用于天然水体中微生物群落结构研究。微生物群落结构及其变化与许多因素有关,包括温度、光照、DO、pH、氮、磷、有机物等,对于不同种类的微生物,各因素的影响效果也有所不同。     

阴极极化对金属电极表面微生物膜的影响

阴极极化对不锈钢表面微生物膜的附着有一定的影响,通过 荧光显微镜记数和细菌双染色方法(AO+PI),对在不同电位下极 化过的不锈钢表面进行了观察,同时做了对比实验。实验证明在一 定的范围内(-800mV~-1000mV),阴极极化对微生物向洁净金属 表面的附着有一定的抑制作用,但是对已经附着的微生物膜不能 够起到脱除或完全杀灭作用,只能杀死靠近金属表面的微生物。通 过模拟膜实验,从侧面证明了只有微生物膜附着而无生物活性时, 钝性金属的开路电位不会发生正移。

基于Illumina高通量测序技术分析了株洲清水塘工业区周边土壤的微生物群落特征,研究重金属污染对土壤微生物群落的影响.结果表明,土壤微生物群落的相对丰度和多样性变化趋势一致,均随着重金属污染程度增加而减小;稻田土壤平均相对丰度最高的门是变形菌门(49. 56%),其次为绿弯菌门(13. 07%)和酸杆菌门(8. 77%);较高重金属污染程度下伴随着更高丰度的变形菌门、绿弯菌门与更低丰度的硝化螺旋菌门、酸杆菌门; 4组样品的微生物群落结构相似性较高,OTU重叠度达52. 64%,丰度较高的OTU其微生物群落更趋向于相似;结合Spearman相关性分析,Cr与变形菌门显著负相关,与绿弯菌门显著正相关,Cd、Cu、Pb和Zn与硝化螺旋菌门显著负相关.以上结果表明,重金属污染是影响清水塘工业区周边土壤微生物群落结构的重要因素.     

Comparative study of microbial community structure in di erent filter media of constructed wetland

Comparisons of microbial community structure, in eight filter media of zeolites, anthracite, shale, vermiculite, ceramic filter media, gravel, steel slag and bio-ceramic, were undertaken by analyzing the phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) composition. A total of 20 fatty acids in the range of C11 to C20 were determined but only 13 PLFAs were detected in steel slag. They consist of saturated fatty acids, branched fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The variation of fatty acids was revealed in the relative proportions of these fatty acids in di erent media. The aerobic prokaryotes were the predominant group in all media. The PLFA composition showed significant di erences among the eight di erent media by Tukey’s honestly test. It was found that steel slag was significantly di erent in the microbial community as compared to other filter media, probably due to its alkaline e uent. Steel slag alone is probably not a good choice of substratum in constructed wetlands. The principle components analysis (PCA) showed that zeolites, bio-ceramic, shale and vermiculite had a similar microbial community structure while steel slag and ceramic filter media were distinct from other media.     

Phosphorus utilization and microbial community in response to lead/iron addition to a waterlogged soil

Constructed wetlands have emerged as a viable option for helping to solve a wide range of water quality problems. However, heavy metals adsorbed by substrates would decrease the growth of plants, impair the functions of wetlands and eventually result in a failure of contaminant removal. Typha latifolia L., tolerant to heavy metals, has been widely used for phytoremediation of Pb/Zn mine tailings under waterlogged conditions. This study examined e ects of iron as ferrous sulfate (100 and 500 mg/kg) and lead as lead nitrate (0, 100, 500 and 1000 mg/kg) on phosphorus utilization and microbial community structure in a constructed wetland. Wetland plants (T. latifolia) were grown for 8 weeks in rhizobags filled with a paddy soil under waterlogged conditions. The results showed that both the amount of iron plaque on the roots and phosphorus adsorbed on the plaque decreased with the amount of lead addition. When the ratio of added iron to lead was 1:1, phosphorus utilized by plants was the maximum. Total amount of phospholipids fatty acids (PLFAs) was 23%–59% higher in the rhizosphere soil than in bulk soil. The relative abundance of Gram-negative bacteria, aerobic bacteria, and methane oxidizing bacteria was also higher in the rhizosphere soil than in bulk soil, but opposite was observed for other bacteria and fungi. Based on cluster analysis, microbial communities were mostly controlled by the addition of ferrous sulfate and lead nitrate in rhizosphere and bulk soil, respectively.

零价铁预厌氧协同MFC强化降解吲哚性能与功能菌群分析

通过零价铁(ZVI)预厌氧与微生物燃料电池(MFC)的协同作用,研究其对单一基质碳源吲哚的降解特性、MFC产电性能及群落分析.结果表明:ZVI(4 g·L^-1)的预厌氧可明显促进吲哚(250 mg·L^-1)在MFC体系中的降解;其中吲哚与TOC在96 h内的降解率分别为97.17%和89.50%,且吲哚的降解符合一级反应动力学模型;体系中MFC最大输出电压和功率密度可达600 mV和439.55 mW·m^-2;通过LC-MS分析,吲哚在协同体系中的主要中间代谢产物为靛红和水杨酸.高通量测序结果表明,ZVI预厌氧体系的引入有利于MFC体系中梭菌(Clostridium sensu stricto)、链霉菌(Streptomyces sp.)、热单胞菌(Thermomonas)的富集与吲哚的厌氧降解;同时促进假单胞菌(Pseudomonas)和梭菌等在代谢过程中的电子转移,提高了MFC的产电性能.     

曝气强度对膜生物反应器污泥混合液可滤性的影响

主要研究了曝气强度对膜生物反应器(MBR)膜污染的影响.2套MBR采用恒流出水模式连续运行60 d,曝气强度分别为500及100 L/h,应用死端过滤装置来检测不同阶段污泥混合液的可滤性.实验中对不同曝气强度下的溶解性微生物代谢产物(SMP)分子质量分布、颗粒粒径分布、胞外聚合物(EPS)含量进行了测定.结果表明,过高的曝气强度将恶化污泥混合液的可滤性,增加了膜污染速率.进一步研究表明,曝气强度的增加导致了污泥混合液上清液中相对分子质量>10000的SMP浓度的增加,此部分大分子有机物浓度直接影响了污泥混合液的可滤性.过高的曝气强度也导致了污泥絮体中1～10μm细小颗粒和EPS含量的增加.
