Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of algae, and in particular to a high-temperature resistant Heterococcus algae and its application. Background Art

[0002] my country is a country facing major challenges in water resources and water environment protection. The huge amount of nitrogen and phosphorus emissions in aquaculture wastewater puts pressure on water pollution. Microalgae have the ability to efficiently remove pollutants such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and heavy metals in water treatment, and at the same time improve the ecological environment of water bodies by increasing oxygen through photosynthesis. Microalgae are highly adaptable and easy to apply on a large scale. They are a water purification method that conforms to sustainable development and are widely used in agricultural, industrial and domestic sewage treatment. In addition, as an efficient photosynthetic carbon-fixing organism, microalgae have a photosynthetic carbon-fixing efficiency that is 10 to 50 times that of plants, a fast growth rate, and an acreage yield that is more than 10 times that of traditional grain crops. Moreover, microalgae protein has a balanced amino acid content and is easily digestible by cells. It is an excellent feed protein raw material and is suitable for resource utilization purposes such as feed and fertilizer.

[0003] Microalgae treatment of wastewater under high temperature has a significant effect on the removal of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), total organic carbon (TOC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD). High temperature promotes the growth of microalgae, enhances its ability to absorb nitrogen and phosphorus, converts nitrogen into amino acids and proteins through photosynthesis and metabolism, and converts phosphorus into intracellular inorganic phosphorus. In addition, high temperature enhances the microalgae's ability to degrade organic matter, effectively reduces TOC and COD values, and significantly reduces organic carbon and biodegradable organic matter in wastewater.

[0004] High temperature environment significantly improves the removal effect of microalgae on major pollutants in wastewater treatment, showing good application potential. However, the suitable growth temperature range for normal microalgae is about 25℃-35℃. Growth will be affected or even impossible at higher temperatures and salt concentrations. Excessively high temperatures will affect the enzyme activity in algae cells, destroy the cell membrane structure, and reduce photosynthesis efficiency, thereby affecting their normal growth and metabolic activities. Conventional microalgae are obviously not suitable for growth in a high temperature environment. It is a reasonable strategy to develop and screen a strain of high temperature resistant microalgae for its high temperature environment.

[0005] The water temperature of Tengchong hot springs in Yunnan is generally between 40℃ and 50℃. A strain of algae with high protein content was screened from its water samples and identified as Xenococcus sp. As a member of cyanobacteria, Xenococcus sp. is famous for its ability to adapt to extreme environments. They can survive in various extreme conditions, including high temperature, high salt, high ultraviolet radiation and drought. This adaptability makes them occupy an important position in environmental changes and extreme ecosystems. Therefore, the high temperature resistance of Xenococcus sp. can be used to cultivate it in aquaculture wastewater under high temperature environment to absorb nitrogen and phosphorus and reduce the nitrogen and phosphorus content in the water body. When cultivating Xenococcus sp. under high temperature environment, in addition to being able to effectively absorb nitrogen and phosphorus in wastewater, its protein content can also be increased by optimizing culture conditions and technical means. The protein structure in high temperature resistant algae is usually more stable than that of ordinary algae, and this stability helps to improve the utilization rate and thermal stability of phycocyanin. Because the high temperature resistant algae have been naturally selected, the hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions of proteins are stronger, making it less likely to denature under high temperature environment. This property enhances the thermal stability of phycocyanin, thereby improving its application value as a feed additive. Overall, Heterococcus has significant potential in the field of feed additives and water treatment. It provides new ideas and efficient solutions for the ecological treatment of aquaculture wastewater and has good market application prospects. With the continuous excavation and in-depth exploration of Heterococcus, it is expected to be more widely used in the global agricultural and industrial fields in the future.

It appears dark green in culture medium, tends to be black, and can aggregate into sheets. Through optical microscope observation, Xenococcus presents spherical or ellipsoidal cells, the cells are large, irregular in shape, and the cell walls are usually thicker and appear to be more solid. The cells contain multiple green chloroplasts, which appear yellow-green. In addition, Xenococcus often forms aggregates, and single cells are wrapped by a layer of sticky substances to form characteristic gelatinous masses. The 16S rRNA gene sequence obtained by sequencing is shown in SEQ ID NO:1. The sequence is compared in the NCBI database and has a high similarity with the group of the genus Xenococcus.

[0105] 3. Growth curve of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 at different temperatures

[0106] Comparison of the growth status of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 at 40℃ and 50℃, such as Figure 3As shown in the figure, the algae strain showed good growth adaptability under both temperature conditions. The results showed that Xenococcus sp.LBV11 still maintained stable growth ability in high temperature environment, reflecting its significant tolerance to high temperature environment. In particular, during the culture period of 0 to 14 days, the cell density of the algae strain accumulated rapidly and the growth rate was relatively stable. This stable proliferation trend shows that Xenococcus sp.LBV11 can still maintain a relatively consistent growth rate under temperature fluctuations. Further analysis found that under the culture condition of 40℃, the cell density of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 was higher than that at 50℃ at each time point, indicating that the growth effect of the algae strain at 40℃ was more significant. 40℃ may provide a more ideal metabolic environment for the algae strain, promoting the proliferation and vitality of cells. At 50℃, although the growth was still good, its cell density was lower than that at 40℃, indicating that higher temperature may have a certain inhibitory effect on growth. These results indicate that 40°C is more suitable as the culture temperature for Xenococcus sp.LBV11, which can ensure its rapid proliferation and provide support for subsequent applications.

[0107] 4. Analysis of the main nutrients in Xenococcus sp.LBV11

[0108] The contents of various nutrients (protein, carbohydrates, and lipids) of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 after cultivation at 40°C and 50°C are as follows Figure 4 As shown in the results, the protein content of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 reached the highest level of 46.0% under the culture condition of 40℃. In contrast, the protein content under 50℃ decreased to 39.9%, indicating that higher temperature may be unfavorable for protein accumulation. In addition, the total sugar content of the strain was also high at 40℃, reaching 22.59%, while it decreased to 19.44% at 50℃. The difference in lipid content was also obvious, with the lipid content at 40℃ being 16.3% and decreasing to 12.6% at 50℃. These data together indicate that the culture condition of 40℃ is more suitable for the accumulation of nutrients of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 strain, especially in the synthesis of proteins and lipids. It is speculated that 40℃ may be a more ideal culture temperature for the strain, which helps to optimize its nutritional value and achieve a higher level of accumulation of key components such as proteins and lipids, which has important reference value for subsequent application research.

[0109] 5. Analysis of amino acid content of Xenococcus sp.LBV11

[0110] As one of the important nutritional factors for animal growth, the richness and content of amino acids play a very important role in the growth process of animals. The amino acid content of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 is shown in Table 4 below. The content of lysine in the essential amino acids is relatively high among the essential amino acids, which is 7.83 mg / g. This is of great significance to human protein synthesis, immune function and calcium absorption. Leucine and isoleucine are 4.57 mg / g and 1.28 mg / g respectively, which are important amino acids for promoting muscle growth and tissue repair. The contents of phenylalanine and valine are 14.13 mg / g and 1.64 mg / g respectively, which are helpful for the production of neurotransmitters and energy metabolism. The content of threonine is low, at 1.72 mg / g, but it also plays a role in maintaining the health of the immune system and protein balance. The content of methionine is 5.62 mg / g, which is a medium level among the essential amino acids. Methionine plays a variety of roles in the body, such as anti-oxidation, supporting liver health and promoting protein synthesis. In addition, Xenococcus sp. LBV11 is also rich in non-essential amino acids, especially aspartic acid, glutamic acid and arginine, which play an important role in protein metabolism, immune support and antioxidant function. The amino acid composition of this algae strain is balanced, with both essential and non-essential amino acids, which has significant nutritional value and broad health potential, and can be used as a supplementary source of high-quality protein in the diet.

[0113] 6. Phycocyanin content of Xenococcus sp.LBV11

[0114] Phycocyanin is an important pigment protein in cyanobacteria. In this study, the results of the assay were as follows Figure 5 The results showed that the phycocyanin content in Xenococcus sp.LBV11 was 56.65 mg / g, indicating that it is highly abundant in cyanobacteria. In addition, the content of allophycocyanin was also determined, with a result of 32.71 mg / g. Under 40°C culture conditions, Xenococcus sp.LBV11 may exhibit higher thermal stability of phycocyanin. After being cultured in a high temperature environment, the structure of its phycocyanin has been optimized so that it can remain stable at high temperatures. This adaptability helps it survive in extreme environments. The molecular structure of phycocyanin may contain more hydrophobic amino acids, which enhances its stability at high temperatures. The experimental results may show that the extraction amount and activity of phycocyanin in Xenococcus sp.LBV11 cultured at 40°C remain high, which further confirms its stronger thermal stability.

[0115] 7. Cultivation of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 in wastewater and its removal effect on total nitrogen (TN) and ammonia nitrogen in wastewater

[0116] The results show that Xenococcus sp.LBV11 has a significant effect on the removal of TN and ammonia nitrogen in wastewater. Figure 6 As shown in the results, after 14 days of cultivation in aquaculture wastewater at a temperature of 40°C and a concentration of 30%, the algae strain showed excellent nitrogen removal ability. On the 4th day of cultivation, the removal rates of TN and ammonia nitrogen reached more than 82.12% and 91.26%, respectively, indicating that it had a strong nitrogen removal effect at an early stage. As the cultivation time increased, the removal rate further increased. On the 14th day, the removal rates of TN and ammonia nitrogen reached 89.22% and 92.37%, respectively. These data show that Xenococcus sp.LBV11 has excellent nitrogen removal effects under high temperature and a certain concentration of aquaculture wastewater, especially in the early stage. It can efficiently reduce the nitrogen content in the wastewater, which provides a potential bioremediation method for the removal of TN and ammonia nitrogen in wastewater treatment.

[0117] 8. Removal effect of Xenococcus sp.LBV11 on total phosphorus (TP) in wastewater

[0118] According to the test results, Xenococcus sp.LBV11 has a significant effect on the removal of total phosphorus (TP) in wastewater treatment. Figure 7 As shown in the figure, after 14 days of cultivation in aquaculture wastewater at a temperature of 40°C and a concentration of 30%, the algae strain showed a strong ability to remove phosphorus. On the second day of cultivation, the TP removal rate reached more than 79.89%, showing its good effect in removing phosphorus in a short time. On the 14th day of cultivation, the total phosphorus removal rate reached 91.69%, indicating that the algae strain has excellent ability in phosphorus treatment, thus playing a positive role in improving water quality.

[0119] 9. Removal of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) from Wastewater by Xenococcus sp.LBV11

[0120] In the process of wastewater treatment, Xenococcus sp.LBV11 showed significant TOC removal ability. Figure 8 As shown in the results, after 14 days of cultivation, the algae strain achieved a removal rate of 93.56% for total organic carbon (TOC). This result shows that Xenococcus sp.LBV11 not only effectively removes TOC components in wastewater, but also maintains a high removal capacity during long-term cultivation, demonstrating its potential in the field of wastewater treatment.
