Problems solved by technology

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) from jellyfish produces fluorescence without adding any exogenous matrix, but due to the long response time and high background signal of fluorescent protein expression, it is necessary to use a UV spectrophotometer to determine the concentration, which is expensive and cumbersome to operate , whose utility has been hampered in bacterial biosensors

Abstract

The invention discloses a semi-quantitative detection method for heavy metal ions in a water-soluble sample based on a whole-cell biosensor, and belongs to the technical field of environmental biology. The method is convenient to operate, short in time consumption, low in cost, good in visibility and easy to quantify. The SRRz cracking gene is used as a report element, the response is quick, and the optical density of the bacterial liquid is obviously reduced within 2 hours when the bacterial liquid is in contact with heavy metal. According to the present invention, the SRRz splitting gene is adopted as the report element so as to cause the splitting of the microbial thalli, the correlation between the obtained result and the Cd (II) ion concentration is high, and the detection result can be determined by using naked eyes, and can be detected through a visible light spectrophotometer; x-gal is used for detecting the beta-galactosidase released outside the cells, and the operation is simple and convenient. The method is good in safety, free of reagent addition, free of pigment interference, short in time consumption, low in cost, specific, easy to realize high-throughput screening and convenient to popularize; and technical support can be provided for daily detection and high-throughput screening of heavy metal pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of environmental biology, and particularly relates to a semi-quantitative detection method for heavy metal ions (divalent cadmium ions) in water-soluble samples based on a whole-cell biosensor. Background technique [0002] With the continuous enhancement of people's awareness of environmental protection, more and more attention is paid to water pollution, especially the pollution of water bodies by heavy metal elements. They are not biodegradable, but have a tendency to accumulate in living organisms, causing chronic poisoning. Therefore, its determination is of great significance for both human health and environmental protection. There are two main development directions for the detection of heavy metal ions. One is instrument-based analytical chemistry methods, such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS), atomic absorption spe...
