Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of environmental microorganisms, and in particular relates to a new strain of Klebsiella aeruginosa and its application in degrading VOCs in livestock and poultry farms. Background Art

[0002] Intensive and large-scale livestock and poultry farming is conducive to reducing breeding costs and improving production efficiency, which is the only way for livestock and poultry farming in my country. However, with the continuous improvement of the scale of livestock and poultry farming, environmental problems in the breeding process are becoming increasingly serious. In particular, the odor from livestock and poultry farms has not been properly handled due to complex components and difficulty in treatment, which seriously affects the surrounding environment and residents. The main components of odor from livestock and poultry farms are: ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Ammonia and hydrogen sulfide are the odor components that have been studied more, while research on VOCs is relatively less, and the emission of VOCs poses a serious threat to human health and the environment. VOCs can damage the central nervous system and cause symptoms such as headaches, nausea, and vomiting; VOCs are fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ), PM 2.5 It can harm the human respiratory system and is also the main cause of haze; VOCs will produce ozone through repeated photochemical reactions in the atmosphere, forming photochemical smog that harms human health and the environment. Therefore, it is urgent to strengthen research on VOCs control.

[0003] Polluted gas treatment technologies are divided into two categories: recovery and decomposition. Recovery is mainly physical, while decomposition is mainly chemical and biological. Recovery technology is suitable for gaseous pollutants with high concentrations and recovery value; decomposition technology decomposes gaseous pollutants into basically harmless small molecules. VOCs in livestock and poultry farms have complex components, high dust content and continuous emissions. Considering the construction cost and operation cost of the treatment equipment, biological methods are the most suitable treatment method for VOCs in livestock and poultry farms. Therefore, there is an urgent need to screen microorganisms that can effectively degrade VOCs in livestock and poultry farms.

[0029] The following examples further illustrate the content of the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Without violating the spirit and essence of the present invention, the modification or replacement of the method, steps or conditions of the present invention belongs to the scope of the present invention.

[0030] The technical solution of the present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with exemplary embodiments.

[0031] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods used in the following examples are conventional methods.

[0032] Unless otherwise specified, the materials and reagents used in the following examples can be obtained from commercial sources.

[0033] Example 1 Isolation and screening of Klebsiella aerogenes N1

[0034] (1) Preparation of strains and culture medium:

[0035] The strain originated from a filter element sample of a biotrickling filter in a pig farm in Chongqing.

[0036] Select NB medium, YPD medium, and MRS medium to isolate strains from samples. The components of each medium are as follows:

[0037] NB medium (g / L): peptone 10.0, beef extract powder 3.0, sodium chloride 5.0, the balance is water, the pH value of the prepared medium at 25°C is 7.2±0.2;

[0038] YPD medium (g / L): peptone 20.0, glucose 20.0, yeast extract powder 10.0, the balance is water, the pH value of the medium prepared at 25°C is 6.5±0.2;

[0039] MRS medium (g / L): peptone 10.0, beef extract powder 8.0, yeast extract powder 4.0, glucose 20.0, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate 2.0, diammonium hydrogen citrate 2.0, sodium acetate 5.0, magnesium sulfate 0.2, manganese sulfate 0.04, Tween 80 1.0, the balance is water, the pH value of the prepared medium at 25°C is 5.7±0.2;

[0040] The solid culture medium corresponding to the above three liquid culture media was prepared by adding 16 g / L agar to the above formula.

[0041] (2) Separation and purification:

[0042] The strains in the sample obtained in step (1) are separated and purified. Under a sterile operating environment, 10 g of the sample is added to 90 mL of physiological saline and mixed, and gradient dilution is performed with sterile distilled water to obtain a bacterial suspension. 100 μL of the bacterial suspension is spread on solid culture media (NB culture media, YPD culture media, and MRS culture media, respectively), inverted in an incubator, and cultured at 37°C for 24 hours. In an ultra-clean workbench, a sterile inoculation loop is used to pick single colonies of different morphologies and streak them on the solid culture media. After repeating the streaking on the plate 3 times or more, the purified strains are obtained, and the strains are stored in -20°C glycerol for later use. A total of 50 strains are isolated and preserved, numbered N1-N50.

[0043] (3) Screening of strain degradation performance of VOCs:

[0044] The above strains were inoculated into the corresponding liquid culture medium described in step (1) respectively, and cultured at 37°C, 150rpm, and shaking for 12 hours to obtain a bacterial solution. Pig feces and pig sewage were mixed in a mass ratio of 1:1 to obtain water-foamed feces. 50g of water-foamed feces was taken in a 120mm culture dish. 10mL of bacterial solution was added to the experimental group and 10mL of sterile water was added to the control group. Three parallels were made for each strain. After being placed in a 3L air bag and sealed to exhaust the gas, the air bag was sealed after being inflated uniformly with a pump for 30s. It was cultured at a constant temperature of 30°C for 24 hours, and the VOCs concentration was directly detected by an odor concentration detector (the manufacturer and model is AIRSENSE OlfoSense ModuleV1.02). Calculate the VOCs removal rate after 24 hours, and select strains with a VOCs removal rate of more than 50% for plotting, such as Figure 1 As shown. Figure 1 It can be seen that strain N1 (isolated and purified from NB culture medium) had the highest average VOCs removal rate after 24 hours, which was 72.36%. Therefore, strain N1 was identified.

[0045] Example 2 Identification and preservation of Klebsiella aerogenes N1

[0046] (1) Strain identification

[0047] Morphological identification: strain N1 was cultured on NB medium plate at 37℃ for 24h. The colony pattern is as follows: Figure 2 As shown. Figure 2 It can be seen that the colonies of the N1 strain are round or oval, milky white and opaque, with smooth edges and a bulge in the middle. The texture is sticky and easy to pick up.

[0048] Identification by molecular biology methods: The genomic DNA of strain N1 was extracted using the TSINGKE kit, and the bacterial universal primers 27F (5'-GAGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3') and 1492R (5'-TACGGCTACCTTCTTACGAC-3') were used to amplify the 16S rDNA region sequence of the N1 strain. The amplified size was about 1.5 bp, and the 16S rDNA gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The PCR amplification product was sequenced by the Chongqing Branch of Beijing Qingke Biotechnology Co., Ltd. The sequencing results were spliced ​​using ContigExpress, and the sequencing results were subjected to BLAST similarity analysis with the existing sequences in NCBI (https: / / blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / Blast.cgi). Strain N1 was identified as Klebsiella aerogenes. The phylogenetic tree was constructed using the Neighbor Joining method of MAGE6 software, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 3The 16S rDNA sequence of Klebsiella aerogenes N1 is as follows:

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] (2) Preservation of strains

[0052] The inventor named strain N1 as Klebsiella aerogenes N1 and submitted it for preservation. The preservation date is April 7, 2024, the preservation number is CGMCC NO.30271, the classification name is: Klebsiella aerogenes N1, the name of the preservation unit is: General Microbiology Center of China Microorganism Culture Collection Administration (referred to as CGMCC), the address is: No. 3, No. 1 Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, Postal Code 100101.

[0053] Example 3 Growth curve determination of Klebsiella aerogenes N1

[0054] The growth curve of the new strain Klebsiella aerogenes N1 in Example 2 was measured by photoelectric turbidimetry (reference: Fiester, SE, Arivett, BA, Beckett, AC, et al. (2018). Miltefosine Reduces the Cytolytic Activity and Virulence of Acinetobacter baumannii. Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 63 (1), e01409-18.). The culture solution was taken every 1 hour, and the absorbance of the bacterial solution was measured at a wavelength of 600 nm to obtain the growth curve of the strain Klebsiella aerogenes N1 as shown in the figure. Figure 4 shown.

[0055] from Figure 4 It can be seen that at 0-6h, Klebsiella aerogenes N1 is in the delay period of the growth stage, and its growth rate is slow; at 6-14h, Klebsiella aerogenes N1 enters the logarithmic growth phase, and its growth rate reaches the maximum; after 14h, Klebsiella aerogenes N1 enters the stable period, and the growth state basically maintains a dynamic balance.

[0056] Example 4 Performance test of Klebsiella aerogenes N1

[0057] (1) Strain non-toxicity test

[0058] Klebsiella aerogenes N1 was inoculated into NB liquid culture medium and cultured at 37°C, 150rpm, and shaken for 12 hours. The culture medium was sent to China Inspection and Quarantine Huatongwei International Inspection (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. for oral toxicity median lethal dose LD 50 Detection. Oral toxicity median lethal dose ID 50 The test showed that the acute oral LD50 of the samples in ICR mice 50 >2000mg / kg body weight, according to GB 5085.2-2007 Hazardous Waste Identification Standard Acute Toxicity Screening, oral toxicity median lethal dose LD 50 Test classification criteria for determining LD 50 >500mg / kg body weight, does not have the acute oral toxicity characteristics of hazardous waste.

[0059] (2) Testing of strain degradation performance of VOCs

[0060] The method for testing the performance of the strain in degrading VOCs was the same as in Example 1, with three parallel tests. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0061] (3) Testing of the odor degradation performance of strains

[0062] Strain N1 was inoculated into NB liquid culture medium, and cultured at 37℃, 150rpm, with shaking for 12h to obtain bacterial liquid. Pig feces and pig sewage were mixed in a mass ratio of 1:1 to obtain water-foaming feces. 50g of water-foaming feces was placed in a 120mm culture dish, and 10mL of bacterial liquid was added to the experimental group and 10mL of sterile water was added to the control group. Three parallels were placed in a 3L air bag and sealed to discharge gas.

The H2S removal rate after 24h was calculated. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0067] Table 1 Removal rate of VOCs, odor, NH3 and H2S by Klebsiella aeruginosa N1 in Example 4

[0068]

[0069] In summary, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the highest removal rates of Klebsiella aeruginosa N1 for VOCs, odor, NH3 and H2S in livestock and poultry farms are 85.37%, 68.22%, 63.95% and 53.68%, respectively, indicating that Klebsiella aeruginosa N1 in the present disclosure has different degrees of degradation effects on VOCs, odor, NH3 and H2S in livestock and poultry farms.
