菌株Desulfovibrio sp. CMX的DNRA性能和影响因素

微生物的硝酸盐异化还原为铵(DNRA)过程对自然界中铵根离子的存在和转化具有重要影响,然而关于SRB菌株DNRA过程影响和机制尚未探明.本文考察了实验室筛选的SRB菌株Desulfovibrio sp.CMX的DNRA能力、影响因素及其影响机制.结果表明,无外加氮源的情况下,分别以10 mmol·L-1NO_3~-和NO_2~-作为唯一电子受体,菌株Desulfovibrio sp.CMX最终NH_4~+生成率分别达到85.8%和97.3%,且无N2和N2O等副产物产生.实验探究了不同外加氮源、不同初始浓度的SO_4~(2-)、S~(2-)对菌株DNRA过程的影响.酵母浸粉作为外加氮源可促进菌株的生长和代谢从而促进菌株DNRA过程;SO_4~(2-)对于NO_3~-还原为NO_2~-阶段起促进作用,而对NO_2~-还原为NH_4~+阶段起抑制作用,综合两方面影响,最终表现出对菌株DNRA过程的抑制作用;S~(2-)对菌株生长及DNRA过程都表现出抑制作用,且S~(2-)浓度越高抑制作用越强,当S~(2-)浓度达到6 mmol·L-1后,S~(2-)对于NO_3~-还原为NO_2~-阶段的抑制作用强于NO_2~-还原为NH_4~+阶段的抑制作用,NO_3~-还原为NO_2~-速率低于NO_2~-还原为NH_4~+速率,此时体系中不再有NO_2~-的积累.

Performance and Influencing Factors of Dissimilatory Nitrate Reduction to Ammonium Process by the Strain Desulfovibrio sp. CMX

The process of dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) plays an important role in the presence and conversion of ammonium ions in nature. However, the influencing factors and mechanisms of DNRA process in sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) have not yet been identified. The ability, influencing factors and mechanisms of DNRA was investigated in Desulfovibrio sp. CMX isolated previously in our laboratory. The results showed that the production rate of ammonium reached 85.8% and 97.3% respectively with NO₃^- and NO₂^- (10 mmol·L^-1) as the sole electron donor and nitrogen source. Meanwhile, there was no by-products such as N₂ and N₂O. Then the effects of different extra nitrogen sources and initial concentrations of sulfate and sulfide on DNRA process were also investigated. As a result, extra nitrogen, yeast extract, could promote DNRA process by improving both growth and metabolism of the strain. In another study, sulfate promoted the nitrate reduction stage while inhibited the nitrite reduction. Overall, the DNRA process by Desulfovibrio sp. CMX was inhibited by sulfate. In addition, both the growth and two stages of the DNRA process were inhibited in the presence of sulfide. Dose effect of sulfide was observed. Inhibition was enhanced with the increase of sulfide concentration. It''s noticeable that the inhibition on nitrate reduction was stronger than the inhibition on nitrite reduction with 6 mmol·L^-1 of sulfide, leading to the lower reduction rate of nitrate than that of nitrite. In this condition, no accumulation of nitrite was observed in the system.
