喹啉降解菌Rhodococcus sp.QL2的分离鉴定及降解特性

从某焦化厂生物处理系统的活性污泥中驯化、分离出1株能以喹啉为唯一碳、氮、能源生长代谢的菌株QL2.经过对其形态特征、生理生化特征和16S rRNA序列分析鉴定该菌株为红球菌属 (Rhodococcus sp.).研究表明,菌株QL2利用喹啉生长的适宜温度为35～42℃,培养基初始pH为8～9,摇床转速为150　r/min.外加氮源能促进菌株的生长,其中无机氮比有机氮、铵态氮比硝态氮更利于细菌的生长.在喹啉初始浓度为60～680　mg/L范围内菌株QL2降解喹啉符合零级动力学方程.喹啉初始浓度为150　mg/L时在8　h内完全降解,TOC去除率14 h内可达到70%.降解过程中产生有颜色的物质,且杂环上的氮原子以氨氮的形式被释放.通过HPLC及GC/MS分析出喹啉降解过程中的主要中间产物为2-羟基喹啉.该菌底物利用范围广,能降解苯酚、萘、吡啶等多种芳香族化合物.

Isolation,Identification and Degradation Characteristics of a Quinoline-Degrading Bacterium Rhodococcus sp.QL2

A quinoline-degrading bacterium QL2, which utilizes quinoline as sole source of carbon, nitrogen and energy, was isolated from activated sludge in a coke-plant wastewater biological treatment system. According to the morphological characteristics, physiological and biochemical characteristics, and sequence analysis of 16S rRNA, the strain was identified as Rhodococcus sp.. The optimal temperature, initial pH, and shaker rotary speed for strain QL2 utilizing quinoline are 35-42 degrees C, pH 8-9, and 150 r/min, respectively. Extra nitrogen sources stimulate the isolate growth on quinoline, and inorganic nitrogen better than organic nitrogen, NH4+ -N better than NO3(-) -N. The degradation reaction of quinoline by strain QL2 can be described with zero order kinetic equation within the initial quinoline concentrations of 60-680 mg/L. When the initial concentration was 150 mg/L, quinoline was degraded completely in 8 hours and TOC removal efficiency was 70% in 14 hours. This bacterium produced pigmented compounds, and ring nitrogen was released into the growth medium as ammonium. The main intermediate in the degradation pathway was 2-hydroxyquinoline by the analysis of HPLC and GC/MS. With a broad range of substrate utilization, the strain can degrade phenol, naphthalene, pyridine, and some other kinds of aromatic compounds.
