[0078] Experiment 4: Examining the stress screening conditions.
[0079] 4.1 Inoculation amount and Cd 2+ Concentration crossover experiment: After activating strain BJ827, culture it to the logarithmic growth phase; take a sterile conical flask, add 100 mL of sterile LB medium, and adjust the initial pH to 7 with hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution; add appropriate amounts of Cd. 2+ Stock solutions were prepared using the five concentration gradients of Cd mentioned above. 2+ -LB medium: 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 mg / L; inoculated at 5 different rates: 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5% (v / v) into the corresponding Cd medium. 2+ The bacterial suspension was inoculated into the culture medium at a specific concentration and incubated at 37°C for 48 h in a constant-temperature shaker at 120 rpm. Samples were then centrifuged and the residual Cd was determined. 2+ Concentration and removal rate were calculated. Three biological replicates were set up for each group.
[0080] Figure 5 Inoculation amount and Cd 2+ The results of the concentration cross-screening experiment, from Figure 5 It can be seen from the low concentration of Cd 2+ Under the condition of (20 mg / L), the inoculum size significantly affected the removal rate: the removal rate reached 34.5% with an inoculum size of 3%, which was significantly higher than that of the 1% (P<0.05), 2% (P<0.05), 4% (P<0.05), and 5% (P<0.05) inoculum size groups, and was the optimal inoculum size at this concentration; for medium and high concentrations of Cd 2+ Within the range of (40–100 mg / L), the removal rate for all inoculum amounts increased with Cd. 2+ The removal rate decreased with increasing concentration, and there was no statistically significant difference in removal rate between different inoculum amounts at the same concentration (P>0.05); based on the removal rate data of 25 experimental groups, 20 mg / L Cd 2+ +3% inoculation rate is the globally optimal parameter combination, with the highest removal efficiency. Therefore, this combination is determined as the fixed condition for subsequent single-factor optimization experiments.
[0081] 4.2 Single-factor optimization of culture time: After activation, strain BJ827 was cultured to the logarithmic growth phase; 100 mL of sterile LB medium was added to a sterile conical flask, and the initial pH was adjusted to 7 with hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution; appropriate amounts of Cd were added respectively. 2+ Stock solution, prepared as 20 mg / L Cd 2+ -LB medium; inoculate at a rate of 3% (v / v) into the corresponding Cd medium. 2+ The bacterial suspension was inoculated into the culture medium at a specific concentration and placed in a constant-temperature shaker at 120 rpm for 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h at 37°C. Samples were then centrifuged and the residual Cd was determined. 2+ Concentration and removal rate were calculated. Three biological replicates were set up for each group.
[0082] Figure 6 The graph shows the effect of cultivation time on the removal rate. From... Figure 6 It can be seen that after 96 hours of cultivation, the strain showed resistance to Cd. 2+ The removal rate reached a peak of 33.1% ± 1.3%; the removal rate after 72 h of incubation was 31.8%, which was not statistically different from the 96 h group (P>0.05); the removal rate after 48 h of incubation was lower than the above two groups (specific values can be supplemented based on experimental records), indicating that extending the incubation time to more than 72 h can improve the adsorption efficiency, but there is no significant gain after 96 h. Considering the overall efficiency, 96 h can be selected as the incubation time for subsequent experiments.
[0083] 4.3 Single-factor optimization of culture temperature: After activation, strain BJ827 was cultured to the logarithmic growth phase; 100 mL of sterile LB medium was added to a sterile conical flask, and the initial pH was adjusted to 7 with hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution; appropriate amounts of Cd were added respectively. 2+ Stock solution, prepared as 20 mg / L Cd 2+ -LB medium; inoculate at a rate of 3% (v / v) into the corresponding Cd medium. 2+ The bacterial suspension was inoculated into the culture medium at a concentration of [concentration] and placed in a constant-temperature shaker at 120 rpm. The cultures were then incubated at 30℃, 37℃, and 44℃ for 48 h, respectively. Samples were collected by centrifugation to determine the residual Cd. 2+ Concentration and removal rate were calculated. Three biological replicates were set up for each group.
[0084] Figure 7 The results show the effect of cultivation temperature on the removal rate. Figure 7 In this study, 37℃ was the optimal culture temperature for Cd. 2+ The removal rate reached 32.3% ± 1.4%; the removal rate at 30℃ was 30.5%, which was the second best temperature; the removal rate dropped significantly to 26.1% at 44℃, suggesting that high temperature may inhibit the activity of the strain and reduce the adsorption efficiency. Therefore, 37℃ was determined to be the optimal culture temperature.
[0085] 4.4 Initial pH Optimization: After activation, strain BJ827 was cultured to the logarithmic growth phase. A sterile conical flask was filled with 100 mL of sterile LB medium, and the initial pH was adjusted to 5, 7, and 9 respectively using hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution. An appropriate amount of Cd²⁺ was added. + Prepare a stock solution of 20 mg / L Cd 2+ -LB medium; inoculate at a rate of 3% (v / v) into the corresponding Cd medium. 2+ The bacterial suspension was inoculated into the culture medium at a specific concentration and incubated at 37°C for 48 h in a constant-temperature shaker at 120 rpm. Samples were then centrifuged and the residual Cd was determined. 2+ Concentration and removal rate were calculated. Three biological replicates were set up for each group.
[0086] Figure 8 The results show the effect of initial pH on the removal rate. Figure 8 In neutral conditions (pH 7), the strain is resistant to Cd²⁺. + The removal rate was the highest, reaching 34.8% ± 1.4%. Under acidic conditions (pH 5) and alkaline conditions (pH 9), the removal rates decreased significantly, to 23.2% and 25.3%, respectively. It is speculated that a pH deviation from neutrality will affect the cell wall charge properties or metabolic activity of the strain, thereby reducing the adsorption capacity. Therefore, the initial pH 7 was determined to be the optimal condition.
[0087] 4.5 Single-factor optimization of culture rotation speed: After activation, strain BJ827 was cultured to the logarithmic growth phase; 100 mL of sterile LB medium was added to a sterile conical flask, and the initial pH was adjusted to 7 with hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide solution; an appropriate amount of Cd was added. 2+ Prepare a stock solution of 20 mg / L Cd 2+ -LB medium; inoculate at a rate of 3% (v / v) into the corresponding Cd medium. 2+ Bacterial suspensions were inoculated into culture media of varying concentrations and placed in constant-temperature shakers at 80, 120, and 160 rpm, respectively, and incubated at 37°C for 48 h. Samples were then centrifuged and residual Cd was determined. 2+ Concentration and removal rate were calculated. Three biological replicates were set up for each group.
[0088] Figure 9 The effect of rotational speed on removal rate was investigated. The results showed that 120 rpm was optimal (30.2% ± 1.2%), while 80 rpm (26.5%) and 160 rpm (28.3%) were both lower.
[0089] Experiment 5: Orthogonal Experiment.
[0090] Using L9(3) 4An orthogonal array was used to investigate four factors at three levels: time (48, 72, 96 h), temperature (30℃, 37℃, 44℃), pH (6, 7, 8), and rotation speed (100 rpm, 120 rpm, 140 rpm). The inoculum size was fixed at 3%, and Cd was used. 2+ Concentration 20 mg / L.
[0091] The results of the orthogonal experiment are listed in Table 3.

[0093]
[0094] Note: K1, K2, and K3 are the average removal rates corresponding to levels 1, 2, and 3 of each factor; R is the range. .
[0095] The results in Table 3 show that the order of influencing factors is time > pH > temperature > rotation speed; time is highly significant (P<0.01), while pH, temperature, and rotation speed are significant (P<0.05). The theoretically optimal combination is 96 h, 30℃, pH 7, and 120 rpm, under which the removal rate reaches 33.7% ± 1.2% (n=3), which is higher than all combinations in the orthogonal table.
[0096] Experiment 6: Dynamics and Isothermal Model Study.
[0097] Under optimal adsorption conditions (Cd) 2+ The Cd24 reaction was carried out under the following conditions: initial concentration 20 mg / L, inoculum size 3%, reaction temperature 30℃, initial pH 7, and shaker speed 120 rpm. 2+ Adsorption kinetics and isothermal adsorption model fitting study. 6.1 Adsorption Kinetics: Adsorption experiments were conducted under the above optimal conditions.

[0098] Figure 10 It is a pseudo-level one ( Figure 10 a) and pseudo-secondary ( Figure 10 b) The fitting results of the dynamic model. Figure 10 The results show that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model has a higher fit to the adsorption process, with a higher correlation coefficient (R²). 2 =0.9606); the fitted theoretical equilibrium adsorption capacity is 60.62 mg / g, and the adsorption rate constant (k) is 0.9606. 2 =0.054h -1 Pseudo-second-order kinetic models are generally suitable for describing chemisorption processes, thus indicating that the strain in this experiment showed good chemisorption of Cd. 2+The adsorption is mainly dominated by chemical adsorption.
[0099] 6.2 Isothermal adsorption: Fix the inoculum amount of the strain at 3%, the reaction temperature at 30 °C, the initial pH of the system at 7, and the shaker speed at 120 rpm. Set the initial concentration of Cd 2+ to be in the gradient of 20 - 100 mg / L, and carry out isothermal adsorption experiments. After the adsorption reaction reaches equilibrium, take samples to measure the remaining concentration of Cd 2+ in the supernatant, and calculate the equilibrium adsorption capacity. Use the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model and the Freundlich isothermal adsorption model to fit the equilibrium adsorption data respectively.
[0100] Figure 11 For the fitting results of the Langmuir ( Figure 11 a in it) and Freundlich ( Figure 11 b in it) isothermal models. The figure shows that the Langmuir model has the best fit (R2 = 0.9919), the theoretical maximum adsorption capacity is 301.95 mg / g, and the separation factor RL = 0.020 (0 < RL < 1), indicating favorable adsorption.
[0101] Experiment 7: Multi-scale characterization experiment of adsorption mechanism.
[0102] To clarify the adsorption mechanism of the target bacteria on Cd, in this example, through desorption experiments combined with various microscopic characterization methods, multi-scale analysis is carried out from the macroscopic action type to the microscopic sites and bonding modes. The specific experimental process and results are as follows: 7.1 Desorption experiment: Use different desorbents to desorb the bacteria saturated with adsorbed Cd, and measure the desorption rate corresponding to each desorbent. Figure 12 For the desorption effects of different desorbents, it can be seen from Figure 12 that: the desorption rate of EDTA-Na2 is 76.0% ± 2.1%, which is significantly higher than that of KNO3 (43.8%) and ultrapure water (10.4%), confirming that chemical adsorption is the main one.
[0103] 7.2 SEM-EDS: Conduct SEM characterization and EDS element analysis on the bacteria before and after adsorbing Cd. Figure 13 For the SEM-EDS analysis results, Figure 13 a in Figure 13 is the surface morphology of the bacteria before adsorbing Cd; Figure 13 b in Figure 13In the figure, 'd' represents the elemental concentration detected by EDS after Cd adsorption. The results show that the mass fraction of Cd on the bacterial surface after Cd adsorption reached 1.47 wt%, while no Cd was detected in the control group of bacteria that did not adsorb Cd. These results directly confirm that Cd can be enriched on the bacterial surface through surface adsorption.
[0104] 7.3 FTIR: FTIR spectra were performed on the bacterial cells before and after Cd adsorption, and the peak shape and peak position changes of characteristic functional groups were compared and analyzed. Figure 14 This is a comparison of FTIR spectra. Line a represents the FTIR spectrum before adsorption, and line b represents the FTIR spectrum after adsorption. Figure 14 It can be seen from the data that after Cd adsorption, the infrared spectrum of the bacterial cells shows a correlation between OH / NH (3500 cm⁻¹). -1 C=O (1646 cm) -1 -COO - (1418 cm) -1 P=O (1242 cm) -1 COP (1095 cm) -1 The intensity of the related characteristic absorption peaks all decreased to varying degrees; meanwhile, at 617 cm⁻¹... -1 A new characteristic absorption peak (MO) appeared (M represents Cd). The above peak shape change confirms that multiple functional groups on the bacterial cell surface, such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and phosphate groups, are involved in the coordination and binding process of Cd.
[0105] 7.4 XPS: XPS full-spectrum and high-resolution narrow-spectrum analysis was performed on the bacterial cells after Cd adsorption. Figure 15 This is a high-resolution XPS spectrum. Figure 15 In this context, 'a' represents the high-resolution narrow-spectrum C1s analysis before adsorption. Figure 15 In the figure, b represents the high-resolution narrow-spectrum C1s analysis after adsorption. Figure 15 In the figure, 'c' represents the high-resolution narrow-spectrum analysis of O1s before adsorption. Figure 15 In the figure, d represents the high-resolution narrow-spectrum analysis of O1s after adsorption. Figure 15 In the figure, 'e' represents the high-resolution narrow-spectrum analysis of Cd3d before adsorption. Figure 15 f in the figure represents the high-resolution narrow-spectrum analysis of Cd3d after adsorption. Figure 16 This is a full-spectrum XPS scan. Figure 16 In this context, 'a' represents the state before adsorption. Figure 16 In this context, 'b' represents the adsorption result.
[0106] As shown in the figure, the high-resolution narrow spectrum of Cd3d reveals characteristic peaks of Cd3d3 / 2 and Cd3d3 / 2 at 405.0 eV and 411.7 eV, respectively, corresponding to the characteristic binding energies of Cd. Further analysis of the C1s and O1s narrow spectra reveals a positive shift of 0.3 eV in the binding energy of the C=O bond after Cd adsorption, and a negative shift of 0.2 eV in the binding energy of the O1s bond. These shifts in binding energy confirm that Cd-O coordination bonds are formed between the O atoms in the functional groups on the bacterial cell surface and Cd.
[0107] 7.5 TEM: Ultrathin sections of bacterial cells before and after Cd adsorption were characterized by TEM. Figure 17 For TEM images, Figure 17 In the figure, 'a' represents the control group cells that did not adsorb Cd. Figure 17 In the diagram, b represents the bacterial cells in the experimental group after Cd adsorption. The results showed that the cell wall thickness of the control group without Cd adsorption was 20 nm–30 nm, while the cell wall thickness of the Cd-adsorbed cells increased to 40 nm–60 nm. Simultaneously, a large number of electron-dense particles of 5 nm–15 nm were observed in the periplasmic space. These morphological changes indicate that the cell wall is the main site for Cd adsorption, and Cd accumulates in the cell wall and periplasmic space.
[0108] Example 8: Investigating the adsorption capacity of heavy metal cadmium by strain BJ827.
[0109] Based on the excellent performance of strain BJ827 in simulated wastewater (20 mg / L Cd) of this invention 2+ The removal rate was 33.7%. The comparison results with other strains are shown in Table 4.
[0110] Table 4: Adsorption capacity of different strains for heavy metal cadmium.
[0111]
[0112] The results in Table 4 show that *Serratia marcescens* BJ827 has a good adsorption capacity for the heavy metal cadmium, indicating its potential application value. It is speculated that it has application potential in the treatment of cadmium-containing wastewater from electroplating, mining, and other industries. It is expected to be effective in the adsorption of cadmium. 2+ In actual wastewater with concentrations of 10 mg–50 mg / L and pH 6–8, this strain can achieve a removal rate of over 90% under optimized conditions (3% inoculum, 30℃, 120 rpm, 96 h), and the cadmium concentration after treatment is expected to be below 1.0 mg / L, approaching the requirements of the current national water pollutant discharge standards. Future research will focus on verifying the stability and reusability of this strain in the complex matrix of real industrial wastewater.
