Problems solved by technology

(2) The research is based on the plasmid as a fluorescent expression carrier. During the passage of the plasmid, there may be defects such as inconsistency in copy number, loss, and high background, resulting in unstable detection results
The detection of lead ions in Aparna needs to be cultivated in LB medium at 37°C for 12 hours. The cycle is too long and the timeliness is poor, which is not conducive to on-site detection.

Abstract

Escherichia coli for detecting lead is disclosed. Escherichia coli for detecting lead is disclosed. The invention provides a construction method of an escherichia coli engineered strain for detecting heavy metal lead and establishment of a method for detecting lead in a water body. The gene engineering strain is PpbrA-pbrR-PpbrA::DsRed-express2 / E.coli delta zntR delta zntA, named as E.coli WMC-008p CGMCC No.9748, wherein zntA and zntR genes undergo deletion mutation so as to be inactivated, and a pbr operon originated from a Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 strain is knocked-in to express the red fluorescence protein DsRed-express2. In comparison with a reporter plasmid-containing E. coli reporter strain, the engineering strain provided by the invention has advantages of simple operation, low fluorescence background value, stable signal and the like. The engineering strain can reflect bio-availability of lead in a water body and provides a basis for objective evaluation of bio-toxicity effects of lead in a water body.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microbiological method for detecting heavy metal lead, in particular to a construction method of Escherichia coli transformed by genetic engineering technology and establishment of a method for detecting lead in water environment. Background technique [0002] With the development of industry and agriculture, many pollutants containing lead ions are discharged into rivers and lakes, polluting soil, water sources and even daily food and vegetables. Lead in the environment mainly comes from various paints, coatings, batteries, smelting, hardware, machinery, electroplating, cosmetics, hair dyes, glazed dishes, tableware, coal, puffed food, water pipes, etc. Studies have found that excessive heavy metal lead is toxic to all living organisms. After the human body absorbs excessive lead, it can accumulate in the vital organs of the human body such as the liver, kidney, and brain. It enters the body through the skin, digestive trac...
