Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to Acinetobacter sp. B2-4, its cultivation method and application in degrading polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, belonging to the technical field of environmental remediation microorganisms (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria). Background Art

[0002] Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a class of persistent organic pollutants widely distributed in the environment. They not only have "carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic" effects, but also have neurotoxicity, posing great hazards to the ecological environment and public health. Their main sources are the combustion of fossil fuels and industrial production processes, such as coke making from coal, oil extraction and refining, incomplete combustion of motor vehicle fuels, and forest fires. Due to the good stability and inertness of the structure of multiple benzene rings, and their natural attenuation rate is much lower than the input rate, PAHs cause persistent harm in the environment. PAHs can widely and persistently exist in various environments, such as the atmosphere, soil, water bodies and sediments. First, it can enter the atmosphere and exist in the atmospheric environment in the form of gas or combined with particulate matter, and then enter the ground and water bodies through sedimentation, and finally migrate and accumulate in the deep anaerobic environment, and the proportions of phenanthrene, fluoranthene and pyrene are the highest.

[0003] Although PAHs can be removed through physicochemical processes, biodegradation is still considered the main mechanism for detoxification. At present, the aerobic degradation of PAHs and related mechanisms have been widely studied. Although the aerobic degradation speed is fast and the efficiency is high, most of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the actual environment will eventually accumulate in the anoxic environment due to their difficult-to-degrade characteristics. Due to the lack of oxygen as an electron acceptor, microorganisms can only use alternative electron acceptors such as nitrate, iron and sulfate. In addition, due to the high toxicity and low bioavailability of PAHs, their degradation usually requires the cooperative metabolism of multiple microorganisms to complete. Although the degradation of PAHs in the nitrate reduction system, iron reduction, sulfate reduction, and methanogenesis systems has been successively discovered since 1988, there is a severe lack of well-studied pure strains of anaerobic degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons under these systems; moreover, the research on the anaerobic degradation pathways and mechanisms of PAHs still needs further study.

[0004] In view of this, it is still of great significance to isolate and screen strains that can efficiently degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons under anaerobic conditions, providing strain resources for the pollution remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the environment.

[0034] Example 1, Screening and Isolation of Acinetobacter sp. B2-4

[0035] 1. Sample Source

[0036] Samples were collected from the oil-containing soil of Shengli Oilfield in Dongying City, Shandong Province, and long-term acclimation was carried out using high-concentration phenanthrene or pyrene as the carbon source to obtain sludge with long-term acclimation to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

[0037] 2. Screening and Isolation of Strains

[0038] (1) Take 80 mL of the sludge sample with long-term acclimation to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and place it in a 250 mL serum bottle, and add PBS buffer solution to ultrasonic clean it 3 times;

[0039] (2) Dilute the sludge sample after cleaning in step (1) with the inorganic salt medium to an OD 600 value of 0.5 - 1;

[0040] (3) Add acetone solutions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at gradient concentrations (0 mg / L, 50 mg / L, 100 mg / L, 200 mg / L) to a sterile 3 mL anaerobic bottle. After the acetone has evaporated, add it to the sterilized inorganic salt medium;

[0041] (4) Inoculate the suspension in step (2) into the inorganic salt medium prepared in step (3) with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as the sole carbon source at an inoculation amount of 10%. Incubate with constant shaking, and take samples at fixed intervals to test the microbial growth status of the culture solution;

[0042] (5) Gradient dilute the culture solution in the anaerobic vial with the best microbial growth with sterile normal saline. Take 100 μL of the bacterial suspensions of 10 -4 、10 -5 、10 -6 and 10 -7 respectively and spread them on the inorganic salt medium with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as the sole carbon source. Incubate statically under anaerobic conditions at 30 °C;

[0043] (6) When colonies appear, pick single colonies with an inoculation loop and streak them on the plate, and streak twice; pick single colonies with an inoculation loop and transfer them to a serum bottle containing 50 ml of liquid medium. Incubate with shaking at 30 °C and 130 rpm for 24 h. Add glycerol and the bacterial solution in a ratio of 1:1 to the cryopreservation tube respectively. After mixing evenly, store it in a -80 °C ultra-low temperature refrigerator, and the strain number is B2-4.

[0044] Example 2. Identification of Acinetobacter sp. B2-4

[0045] 1. Stain the strain B2-4 obtained in Example 1 by Gram staining method, and observe the morphology of strain B2-4 using a field emission scanning electron microscope. The results are as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 .

[0046] It can be seen from Figure 1 and Figure 2 that the biological characteristics of this strain are: Gram-negative bacteria, cells are short rod-shaped, single, with a size of (0.6 μm - 0.8 μm) × (1.2 μm - 3 μm) (see Figure 1 ). And the colony surface is smooth, convex, moist, with a diameter of 2 - 3 mm (see Figure 2 ).

[0047] 2. Use the T5 Direct PCR Kit (Plant) bacterial genome extraction kit to extract the DNA of the strain B2-4 obtained in Example 1. The specific extraction method refers to the instruction manual of this kit. Use the primers 27F and 1492R to perform PCR amplification on the 16S rDNA gene of the strain B2-4, and sequence the amplified specific fragment.

[0048] The PCR primers use universal primers:

[0049] 27F: 5'-AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3' (SEQ ID NO.2),

[0050] 1492R: 5'-GGTTACCTTGTTACGACTTC-3' (SEQ ID NO.3).

[0051] The sequencing result is: the length of the 16S rDNA sequence of B2-4 is 1451 bp (shown in the specific SEQ ID NO.1). Compare this result on NCBI. After BLAST comparison, it is found that the strain B2-4 has the closest genetic relationship with Acinetobacter sp. Use the neighbor-joining method of MEGA7 to establish a phylogenetic tree, and the result is as Figure 3 shown.

[0052] According to the 16S rDNA sequence comparison result and combined with the biological characteristics of this strain, this strain is identified as Acinetobacter sp., named Acinetobacter sp. B2-4.

[0053] Example 3. Degradation of phenanthrene and pyrene by Acinetobacter sp. B2-4

[0054] 1. The preparation method of the Acinetobacter sp. B2-4 bacterial solution includes the following steps:

[0055] (1) Inoculate Acinetobacter sp. B2-4 into the LB liquid medium, activate and culture it at 30 °C and 150 rpm for 24 h, centrifuge, and collect the bacterial cells;

[0056] (2) After resuspending the bacterial cells in step (1), inoculate them into the inorganic salt medium, and continue to culture at 30 °C and 150 rpm for 24 h to obtain the Acinetobacter sp. B2-4 bacterial solution with OD600 = 1.

[0057] 2. Preparation of the degradation medium

[0058] Method for preparing phenanthrene degradation medium: Add 50 mL of inorganic salt medium into a 100 mL serum bottle, and then add an acetone solution of phenanthrene to make the concentration of phenanthrene in the inorganic salt medium 100 mg / L. Place it in a sterile operation box for 24 hours to volatilize acetone, and obtain the phenanthrene degradation medium.

[0059] Prepare a pyrene degradation medium according to the same method.

[0060] 3. Detection of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon degradation rate

[0061] According to the mass percentage of 5%, inoculate the Acinetobacter sp. B2-4 bacterial solution into the phenanthrene degradation medium, seal it with a butyl rubber stopper, and transfer it to a constant temperature shaking incubator. Cultivate it for 45 days under the conditions of 30 °C, 150 rpm, and a dark anaerobic environment. In addition, set three groups of parallel and sterile media as blank controls. Every week during cultivation, ultrasonically extract the culture vial with an equal volume of cyclohexane, and measure the content of phenanthrene in it by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and calculate the degradation rate of phenanthrene. Detect the degradation rate of pyrene according to the same method. The results of the degradation rates of both phenanthrene and pyrene are as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown.

[0062] It can be seen from Figure 4 and Figure 5 that under anaerobic conditions, the strain has a degradation effect on both phenanthrene and pyrene. After 45 days of cultivation, the degradation rate of phenanthrene by Acinetobacter sp. B2-4 is 74.9%; after 45 days of cultivation, the degradation rate of pyrene by Acinetobacter sp. B2-4 is 56.2%.
