Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of microbial biotechnology and relates to a strain of Pandora's bacterium capable of aerobically degrading pyrene, a cultivation method and application thereof. Technical Background

[0002] With the rapid development of the global economy, global demand for crude oil is increasing, and fossil fuels are increasingly accounting for a higher proportion of global energy use. However, the exploration, transportation, and refining of oil can lead to serious environmental pollution, resulting in the release of large quantities of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Pyrene, a typical PAH, is difficult to degrade and highly toxic, posing a potential threat to both the environment and human health.

[0003] Bioremediation is a promising green technology for treating PAH-contaminated sites. Unlike physical and chemical processes, bioremediation methods are relatively low-cost, energy-efficient, and offer significant potential for improving environmental safety. Currently, numerous researchers at home and abroad have identified numerous strains capable of degrading pyrene, including bacteria such as Enterobacter, Bacillus, Mycobacterium, and Novosphingobium, as well as fungi such as Ganoderma lucidum, Penicillium, and Serratia. These strains can grow using pyrene as their sole carbon source. However, their pyrene-degrading abilities are limited, with only a few strains demonstrating significant pyrene degradation performance. Therefore, identifying new pyrene-degrading bacterial strains is crucial to advancing pyrene biodegradation research.

[0004] The genus Pandoraea has garnered widespread attention in recent years. Studies have shown that Pandoraea has broad applications in environmental remediation and pollutant degradation, including its ability to degrade organic pollutants such as lignin and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). However, there are few reports on Pandoraea's ability to degrade pyrene. The Pandoraea sp. ZHL-3 employed in this study can grow using pyrene as its sole carbon and energy source and exhibits a strong pyrene-degrading ability. This bacterium has potential applications in the remediation of pyrene-containing wastewater, soil, and other contaminated sites. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a Pandora bacteria strain that can aerobically degrade pyrene, a cultivation method, and its application. The strain can grow using a variety of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as the sole carbon source, has a high ability to degrade pyrene, and has good pH and salinity tolerance, showing its application prospects in the remediation and treatment of contaminated sites such as pyrene-containing wastewater and soil.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A strain of Pandoraea that aerobically degrades pyrene has been deposited with the China General Microbiological Culture Collection under the registration number CGMCC No. 30434. The depositor's address is the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, No. 3, Yard 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing. The deposit date is April 24, 2024. The strain belongs to Pandoraea, and its 16S rRNA gene sequence shows high similarity to that of the genus Pandoraea. The strain has been designated Pandoraea sp. ZHL-3.

[0041] The strain ZHL-3 was isolated by the inventor from the rhizosphere soil of Suaeda salsa in the Liaohe Estuary Wetland in Panjin, Liaoning Province in 2023. The strain was cultured with pyrene as the only carbon source, and a pure culture was obtained through repeated plate coating, separation and purification.

[0042] Culture medium: BH inorganic salt medium: KH2PO4 1.0g / L, K2HPO4 1.0g / L, (NH4)2SO4 1.0g / L, MgSO4 0.2g / L, each 100mL BH inorganic salt medium contains 0.1mL metal ion stock solution; the metal ion stock solution composition is: 10g / LFeSO4·7H2O, 1.32g / L CaCl2·2H2O, 3.56g / L ZnSO4·7H2O, 0.30g / L MnSO4·H2O, 0.06g / L CuSO4, 0.12g / L Na2MoO4·2H2O, 0.02g / L H3BO3; sterilize through a 0.22μm water filter membrane. LB solid medium: 10.0 g / L peptone, 5.0 g / L yeast extract powder, 10.0 g / L NaCl, 2% (W / V) agar, pH adjusted to 7.0-7.2 with NaOH / HCl.

[0043] Example 1: Obtaining Pandora bacteria ZHL-3

[0044] Rhizosphere soil samples from the Suaeda salsa plant from the Liaohe Estuary Wetland in Panjin, Liaoning Province were repeatedly diluted and plated onto LB solid medium plates and incubated at 30°C. Single colonies were selected and incubated in BH inorganic salt medium containing 20 mg / L pyrene at 30°C and 150 rpm to obtain a bacterial suspension. The cell morphology of strain ZHL-3 is slightly arcuate, with obvious wrinkles and depressions on the surface of the cell. The cell size is approximately (0.8-2) μm × (0.3-0.6) μm. Figure 1 .

[0045] Example 2: 16S rRNA molecular identification of strains

[0046] Colonies grown on LB solid medium were sent to Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. for 16S rRNA sequencing. Blast comparison of the sequencing results in Genbank revealed that the 16S rRNA sequence of ZHL-3 shared 99% similarity with that of Pandoraea , confirming that strain ZHL-3 belonged to the genus Pandoraea .

[0047] Example 3: Determination of the broad spectrum of substrates of Pandora bacteria ZHL-3

[0048] Using the bacterial solution from Example 1, BH inorganic salt medium with a 5% inoculum, the growth of strain ZHL-3 was investigated using various organic compounds as sole carbon sources, including phenanthrene, anthracene, naphthalene, benzene, toluene, benzoic acid, xylene, and p-xylene. The concentration of each compound was 50 mg / L. Table 1 shows the growth of Pandora's genus ZHL-3 using different compounds as sole carbon sources.

[0051] Example 4: Effects of different pyrene concentrations on the growth and aerobic degradation of pyrene by Pandora bacteria ZHL-3

[0052] The bacterial solution in Example 1 was transferred to 100 mL of LB liquid medium at a 5% inoculum volume, cultured at 30°C, 150 rpm for 24 h, and centrifuged at 4°C, 8000 rpm for 10 min. The supernatant was discarded, and the cells were washed 2-3 times with BH inorganic salt medium and resuspended with BH inorganic salt medium. The OD was adjusted. 600 The initial bacterial solution was obtained by adding 100 mL of BH inorganic salt medium, 5% inoculum, pyrene concentrations of 10 mg / L, 20 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 50 mg / L, 80 mg / L, and 100 mg / L, pH 7.0, and shaking culture at 30 ° C and 150 r / min. After 8 days, the growth of the strain was detected (measured by OD 600 absorbance) and the residual concentration of pyrene. Figure 2 These are experimental results showing the growth and degradation rate of Pandora's bacteria ZHL-3 at different pyrene concentrations. The results show that strain ZHL-3 can degrade pyrene at various concentrations in a culture medium containing pyrene as the sole carbon source. It can degrade pyrene at concentrations ranging from 10 to 100 mg / L, with a degradation rate exceeding 85% for concentrations between 10 and 20 mg / L.

Culture was performed at 30°C and 150 r / min, and the growth of the strain was detected after 8 days (measured by OD 600 absorbance) and the residual concentration of pyrene. Figure 3 These are experimental results showing the growth and pyrene degradation rates of Pandora's bacteria ZHL-3 at different pH levels. The results indicate that different pH levels affect the growth and aerobic pyrene degradation capabilities of strain ZHL-3. The strain grows well within a pH range of 6.0-8.0, achieving a pyrene degradation rate exceeding 60%. It also maintains good growth and high pyrene degradation rates at pH levels of 5.0 and 9.0, demonstrating excellent pH adaptability.

[0055] Example 6: Effects of different salinities on the growth of Pandora bacteria ZHL-3 and aerobic degradation of pyrene

[0056] Prepare OD as in Example 4 600 The initial bacterial liquid was 1.0. 100 mL of BH inorganic salt medium was used, with a 5% inoculum, a pyrene concentration of 20 mg / L, and a pH of 7.0. The salinity of the BH inorganic salt medium was adjusted to 0, 5‰, 10‰, 15‰, and 20‰ using NaCl. The culture was shaken at 30°C and 150 r / min. The growth of the strain was detected after 8 days (measured by OD 600 absorbance) and the residual concentration of pyrene. Figure 4 These are experimental results showing the growth and pyrene degradation rates of Pandora's bacteria ZHL-3 at different salinities. The results show that different salinities affect the growth and aerobic pyrene degradation ability of strain ZHL-3. The strain grows well in salinities ranging from 0 to 20‰, achieving a pyrene degradation rate exceeding 75% at low salinities of 0-10‰ and exceeding 60% at moderate salinities of 15‰ to 20‰, demonstrating its excellent salinity adaptability.
