Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of phytoplankton primary productivity detection, and particularly relates to an in-situ fluorescence detection device and method for phytoplankton primary productivity. Background Art
[0002] The traditional methods for sampling and culturing phytoplankton primary productivity have a long cycle, cumbersome procedures, and poor timeliness, making it difficult to meet the current rapid monitoring requirements for phytoplankton primary productivity. As a tool for real-time and rapid analysis of the photosynthesis process of phytoplankton, the chlorophyll fluorescence method has shown broad application prospects in the field of primary productivity detection. However, the current primary productivity monitoring equipment on the market mainly faces the following technical problems: 1. Some commercial fluorometers (such as WATER-PAM) require manual operation and cannot be monitored in-situ for a long time; 2. Existing in-situ sensors (such as YSI chlorophyll sensors) only measure chlorophyll concentration and cannot directly calculate primary productivity; 3. There is a lack of an integrated device for simultaneously measuring chlorophyll concentration and primary productivity; 4. The equipment is large in volume, high in power consumption, low in sensitivity, and weak in pressure resistance, making it difficult to meet the in-situ monitoring requirements for phytoplankton primary productivity on mobile platforms such as Argo and underwater gliders. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides an in-situ fluorescence detection device and method for phytoplankton primary productivity.
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] The first aspect of the present invention is to propose an in-situ fluorescence detection device for phytoplankton primary productivity, comprising:
[0006] A light window base as the main structure, with an excitation end window and a receiving end window concentrically assembled inside it. The excitation end window is made of quartz glass and is buffered from water pressure by a soft glue layer between it and the light window base;
[0007] A light source module, including multi-band LED lamp beads, white light LED lamp beads, and laser diodes distributed on the bevel of the light window base, which are respectively used for exciting fluorescence spectra, adjusting the light adaptation environment, and exciting fluorescence kinetics;
[0008] An optical receiving module, including a receiving end collimating mirror, a filter set, and a photomultiplier tube, for receiving and processing fluorescence signals;
[0009] A circuit module, which elastically fixes multi-layer detection circuit boards through support springs and connecting screws to achieve anti-vibration interference;
[0010] A sealed cabin body and a light shield, for realizing optical isolation and pressure protection for in-situ underwater detection.
[0011] In the above technical solution, the assembly gap between the excitation end window pane and the optical window base is +0.05 mm to +0.10 mm, a soft glue layer with a thickness of 0.05 mm to 0.1 mm is evenly coated on the contact surface between the two, and the thickness of the excitation end window pane is 0.1 mm to 0.15 mm shallower than that of the optical window base.
[0012] In the above technical solution, the light source module includes:

[0017] In the above technical solution, the overall diameter of the device is ≤ 67 mm, and a threaded connection structure using a non-adhesive process is adopted. The cabin body and the watertight joint meet the underwater 1000 m pressure resistance requirement.
[0018] In the above technical solution, in the circuit module: the support spring is made of 304 stainless steel; the detection circuit boards are isolated by plastic cushion posts; the arc-shaped support frame connects the optical window base and the circuit board fixing ring.
[0019] The second aspect of the present invention is to propose an in-situ fluorescence detection method for phytoplankton primary productivity, which is characterized by including the following steps:
[0020] a) Construct a standard spectral library S = [S a S c S t , where S a is a 9×N order spectral matrix of dominant algal species, S c is the yellow substance spectrum, and S t is the turbidity spectrum;
[0021] b) Measure the in-situ water sample excitation fluorescence spectrum F e , and solve R = (S T · S) -1 · (S T · F e ) through the iterative least squares method. After eliminating negative concentrations, obtain the chlorophyll distribution and the algal fluorescence spectrum F a ;
[0022] c) Under dark / light adaptation conditions, the fluorescence kinetic curve F of laser-induced fluorescence is used d , and based on the model F = F0 + F V (1 - e -EσT ), the photosynthetic activity parameters F V / F M and F’ V / F’ M are calculated by fitting;
[0023] d) Combining the normalized spectrum S w of the white light source, the photosynthetic activity parameters and F a , the gross primary productivity is calculated by GPP = E·Σ(s wi ·f ai ·F’ V / F’ M / F V / F M ).
[0024] In the above technical solution, the iterative process in step b) includes: if there are negative values in the concentration matrix R, locate the spectral column corresponding to the negative value and generate a new matrix S’; recalculate (S’ T ·S’) -1 and R’ = (S’ T ·S’) -1 ·(S’ T ·F e ); iterate until all values in R’ are non-negative, and assign a value of 0 to the concentration corresponding to the missing spectrum.
[0025] In the above technical solution, in step c): the fluorescence kinetic curve F d is determined by the gradient search method to obtain the best fitting value; the fitting variance is calculated using the weighted sum of squared residuals, and the weight is inversely proportional to the fluorescence intensity.
[0026] In the above technical solution, the light intensity E of the white light source is calibrated through the following steps: measuring the actual light intensity inside the light-shielding cover using an irradiance meter; establishing a linear calibration model between the LED drive current and the light intensity; multiplying the normalized spectrum S w by E to obtain the effective light radiation energy of each band.

[0029] 2. The design of the short optical path optical excitation and receiving lens can better ensure the excitation efficiency and receiving efficiency. At the same time, with the cooperation of the light shield, it can avoid the interference of scattered light and bring better measurement results.

Specific implementation mode
[0045] The present invention will be introduced in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. However, the following embodiments are only for explaining the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention should include all the contents of the claims. Moreover, through the description of the following embodiments, those skilled in the art can fully implement all the contents of the claims of the present invention.
[0046] Embodiment
[0047] Such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses an in-situ fluorescence detection device for primary productivity of phytoplankton, including: receiving end window pane 1, excitation end window pane 2, optical window base 3, white light LED focusing lens 4, laser focusing lens 5, white light LED fixing seat 6, laser focusing fixing ring 7, laser LED fixing seat 8, laser diode 9, receiving end focusing lens screw fixing 10, receiving end focusing lens 11, receiving end focusing lens fixing ring 12, filter set 13, multi-band LED lamp beads 14, collimating lens filter fixing ring 15, receiving end collimating lens 16, receiving end collimating lens isolation ring 17, white light LED lamp beads 18, light source connection circuit board 19, photomultiplier tube fixing seat 20, photomultiplier tube 21, bow-shaped support frame 22, circuit board connection screw 23, circuit board bottom fixing ring 24, support spring 25, detection circuit board 26, plastic cushion column 27, nut 28, plastic gasket 29, top anti-vibration ring 30, light-shielding cover 31, cabin body 32, top end cover 33, watertight joint 34.
[0048] The optical window base 3 is the installation main body. The excitation end window pane 2 and the optical window base 3 are concentrically assembled. The outer diameter of the optical window base 3 and the inner diameter of the excitation end window pane 2 ensure a gap of +0.05mm - +0.10mm, ensuring sufficient strength of the whole after being put in and fixed with glue. The material of the excitation end window pane 2 is quartz glass, and the material of the optical window base 3 is TC4. To avoid hard contact between the excitation end window pane 2 and the optical window base caused by water pressure at deep water depths and resulting in breakage, a layer of soft glue is evenly applied on the front plane of the excitation end window pane 2 and the bottom plane of the optical window base. The thickness of the glue layer is about 0.05mm - 0.1mm. Therefore, the thickness of the excitation end window pane 2 is 0.1mm - 0.15mm shallower than the depth of the optical window base 3.
[0049] The fixing glue is evenly applied on the outer cylindrical surface and the inner cylindrical surface of the excitation end window pane 2. Similarly, the fixing glue is evenly applied on the inner and outer cylindrical surfaces of the inner groove of the optical window base 3. After concentric installation, wait for the glue to cure.
[0050] The receiving end window pane 1 and the optical window base 3 are concentrically assembled. At the same time, the height of the receiving end window pane should be 0.5mm lower than the inner cylindrical step groove of the concentrically installed optical window base 3 to prevent the excitation light from scattering into the receiving end from the side. The fixing glue is evenly applied on the outer stepped cylindrical surface of the receiving end window pane 1. Similarly, the fixing glue is evenly applied on the inner and outer cylindrical surfaces of the inner groove of the optical window base 3. After concentric installation, wait for the glue to cure.
[0051] There are 9 multi - band LED bead mounting holes, 3 white - light LED mounting holes, and 2 laser diode mounting holes distributed at the upper end of the hypotenuse of the optical window base 3. (The light sources are divided into three parts according to their functions: 1. Laser diodes, which consist of 454 - nm blue and 624 - nm red laser diodes and a converging lens group, and are mainly used to stimulate and induce algae to generate a fluorescence kinetic rise curve; 2. White - light light sources, which consist of 3 natural white - light LEDs and a converging lens group, and are mainly used to generate a light - adapted environment during photosynthetic activity measurement, so as to analyze and obtain the photosynthetic activity under light - adapted conditions; 3. Multi - band LEDs, which consist of 9 LEDs in the range of 380 - 750 nm, and are mainly used to measure the excitation fluorescence spectrum of algae, analyze the community distribution, and the absorption of algal pigments).
[0052] The multi - band LED beads 14 are evenly distributed in the multi - band LED bead mounting holes at the upper end of the hypotenuse of the optical window base 3 through concentric assembly. The white - light LED focusing lens 4 is installed into the white - light LED mounting hole of the optical window base 3 through concentric assembly. The white - light LED fixing seat 6 is installed into the white - light LED mounting hole of the optical window base 3 through concentric assembly, and the fixation of the white - light LED focusing lens 4 and the white - light LED fixing seat 6 is completed by screw - rotation extrusion. The white - light LED bead 18 is installed into the inner through - hole of the white - light LED fixing seat 6 through concentric assembly. The bottom of the white - light LED fixing seat 6 is chamfered (to avoid blocking the white - light output light); The laser focusing lens 5 and the laser focusing fixing ring 7 are installed into the laser diode mounting hole of the optical window base 3 through concentric assembly. The laser focusing fixing ring 7 presses the end face of the laser focusing lens 5. The laser diode 9 is installed into the inner groove of the laser LED fixing seat 8 through concentric assembly and is fixed by using a set - screw through the threaded hole on the cylindrical surface of the laser LED fixing seat 8.
[0053] The laser LED fixing seat 8 is screwed into the laser diode mounting hole of the optical window base 3 through its own thread to squeeze the laser focusing fixing ring 7 to complete the overall fixation; The receiving - end focusing lens 11, the receiving - end focusing lens fixing ring 12, the filter set 13, the collimating - lens filter fixing ring 15, the receiving - end collimating lens 16, and the receiving - end collimating - lens isolation ring 17 are concentrically installed into the optical window base 3 in their respective installation sequences. The receiving - end threaded focusing - lens fixing 10 is screwed into the optical window base 3 through concentric assembly and thread to squeeze the receiving - end focusing lens 11 to complete the overall fixation; The height of the receiving - end threaded focusing - lens fixing 10 has a negative tolerance of - 0.05 mm - 0.1 mm (to ensure that there is no protrusion when installed into the optical window base 3).
[0054] The photomultiplier tube 21 is connected to the photomultiplier tube fixing base 20 by threads. The lamp source connection circuit board 19 passes through the square hole of the photomultiplier tube 21. The two circular holes of the lamp source connection circuit board 19 are concentrically corresponding to the two circular holes on the photomultiplier tube fixing base 20 and the optical window base 3. The positive and negative electrodes of the lamp beads at the inclined end of the optical window base 3 are soldered into the corresponding slots of the lamp source connection circuit board by electric soldering to complete the fixing of the lamp beads.
[0055] The circuit board connection screw 23 is screwed into the corresponding threaded hole of the circuit board bottom fixing ring 24 through concentric assembly threads and passes through. The nut 28 is concentrically assembled and tightened with the protruding circuit board connection screw 23. The support spring 25 passes through the bottom of the circuit board connection screw 23 concentrically and contacts the circuit board bottom fixing ring 24. The plastic gasket 29 passes through the circuit board connection screw 23 concentrically and contacts the support spring 25. The detection circuit board 26 passes through the circuit board connection screw 23 and contacts the plastic gasket 29. The plastic pad column 27 passes through the circuit board connection screw 23 and contacts the detection circuit board 26 (ensuring that the support spring 25 does not contact the detection circuit board 26). Similarly, the subsequent installation is assembled in the order described in the figure; it should be noted that: when the nut 28 at the upper end of the third circuit board is turned, the support spring 25 is compressed, ensuring that there is a certain redundant space for the components at the bottom of the bottom detection circuit board 26 and enabling the support spring 25 to have a certain compression pre-tightening force. The height of the support spring is 20 mm, and the length of the bottom detection circuit board 26 after compressing the lower support spring 25 is 13 mm.
[0056] The nut 28 at the upper end of the fourth detection circuit board 26 compresses the support spring 25 between the third and fourth circuit boards, making its compressed length 9 mm. The nut 28 above the sixth detection circuit board 26 is tightened to complete the fixing of the entire circuit board. The third support spring passes through the circuit board connection screw 23 and contacts the nut 28. The plastic gasket passes through the circuit board connection screw 23 and contacts the support spring 25. The top anti-vibration ring 30 passes through the circuit board connection screw 23 and contacts the plastic gasket 27. The nut 28 is screwed into the circuit board connection screw 23 by threads and compresses the support spring 25. The height of the third compression spring 25 after compression is 10 mm.
[0057] After the installation of the detection circuit part is completed, the bottom of the bow-shaped support frame 22 is fixed on the optical boat base 3 by screws passing through the lamp source connection circuit board 19 and the photomultiplier tube fixing base 20 concentrically. The top of the bow-shaped support frame 22 is fixed on the circuit board bottom fixing ring 24 by screws concentrically, and the overall internal structure is assembled.
[0058] After the internal assembly is completed, a sealing ring is installed in the internal groove of the optical window base 3 for concentric assembly with the cabin body 32, and the 4 equally distributed through holes above the optical window base 3 correspond one by one to the 4 equally distributed threaded holes on the end face of the cabin body 32. The light shield 31 is concentrically assembled with the optical window base 3, and the 4 equally distributed through holes inside the light shield 3 correspond one by one to the 4 equally distributed through holes above the optical window base 3 and are fixed on the cabin body 32 by screws passing through the optical window base 3 and the light shield 31. After installing a sealing ring above the top end cover 33, it is concentrically assembled with the cabin body 32. At the same time, the 4 equally distributed through holes above the top end cover 33 correspond one by one to the 4 equally distributed threaded ports above the cabin body 32 and are fixed on the cabin body 32 by screws; the watertight joint 34 is concentrically assembled and screwed into the top end cover 33 through threaded connection.
[0059] In the instrument design, the included angle of the light source is one of the key parameters affecting the system performance. When the instrument design is limited by the miniaturization requirement, through experiments and theoretical analysis, it is determined that setting the included angle of the light source to 30° is a better choice. This angle is obtained after comprehensively considering multiple factors such as optical efficiency, spatial layout, and optical limitations brought by miniaturization, and can achieve a relatively good excitation effect in a limited space.
[0060] In the case where there is no size limit for the instrument, the included angle of the light source can be dynamically adjusted according to the change of the instrument shell size. Through research on aspects such as the optical propagation path, reflection and refraction characteristics, and the light uniformity of the target object under different shell sizes, it is found that flexibly adjusting the included angle of the light source can effectively optimize the lighting conditions, thereby achieving the best excitation effect and providing a strong guarantee for the efficient operation of the system.
[0061] Based on the above device, this embodiment also discloses a method for in-situ fluorescence detection of phytoplankton primary productivity, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0062] Step 1: Collect water samples with different spatial distributions in the research area, use the method of microscopic examination to confirm the main dominant algal species, select the same algal species cultured in the laboratory, and establish a standard spectral library S of the main dominant algal species a ;
[0063] Step 2: Take part of the water sample and place it in an autoclave for inactivation. Filter the water sample with a 0.75μm filter membrane, calibrate the yellow substance with the filtered sample to obtain the standard spectrum S of the yellow substance c , rinse the filter membrane with deionized water to obtain a suspension, calibrate the water turbidity with the suspension to obtain the standard spectrum S of the water turbidity t ;
[0064] Step 3: Combine S a , S c and S t to obtain the standard spectral library S, and transpose the standard spectral library S to matrix S TMultiply by S to obtain S T ·S, and then use Gauss-Jordan elimination to solve the inverse matrix (S T ·S) -1 ;
[0065] Step 4: Use the device to measure the excitation fluorescence spectrum F of the original water sample in the research area from 380 nm to 750 nm e , multiply S T by F e to obtain S T ·F e ;
[0066] Step 5: Multiply (S T ·S) -1 by S T ·F e to obtain the concentration result matrix R. If there are negative values in R, record the positions of the negative values, subtract the spectra at the corresponding positions in S to reproduce S, and repeat Steps 3, 4, and 5 until there are no negative values in R. Reassign the values of R according to the positions of the negative values to obtain the chlorophyll concentration. According to R and S a obtain the algal fluorescence spectrum F a ;
[0067] Step 6: Under dark adaptation conditions, use the device to measure the fluorescence kinetics curve F of the original water sample in the research area d , calculate the average fluorescence f d of the first 10 fluorescence values and the average fluorescence f 1st of the last 10 fluorescence values of F end respectively, and obtain the saturation fluorescence parameter E σ within the value range according to the fluorescence kinetics model, and form the intermediate matrix D;;
[0068] Step 7: Transpose the matrix D to obtain D T , multiply D by D to obtain the matrix D T ·D. Similarly, use Gauss-Jordan elimination to solve the inverse matrix (D T ·D) -1 , multiply D T by F d to obtain D T ·F d , multiply (D T ·D) -1 by D T ·F d to obtain the fluorescence result matrix Y. Search for the fluorescence result matrix Y with the minimum fitting variance within the value range of E σ to obtain the dark adaptation photosynthetic activity F V / F M ;
[0069] Step 8: Turn on the white light LED bead 18. Under the condition of light adaptation, repeat Steps 6 and 7 to obtain the light-adapted photosynthetic activity F’ V / F’ M;
[0070] Step 9: Input the light intensity E of the white light LED bead 18, the normalized light intensity spectrum S w , the algal fluorescence spectrum F a , the light-adapted photosynthetic activity F’ V / F’ M and the dark-adapted photosynthetic activity F V / F M into the primary productivity model to calculate and obtain the primary productivity GPP.
[0071] In this embodiment, the standard spectral library S of the main dominant algal species a is a 9×N order matrix, where 9 is the number of spectral points and N is the number of main dominant algal species;
[0072] In this embodiment, the standard spectrum S of the yellow substance c and the standard spectrum S of the water turbidity t are both 9×1 order matrices;
[0073] In this embodiment, the standard spectral library S = [S a S c S t ] is a 9×(N + 2) order matrix;
[0074] In this embodiment, the matrix S T · S is a (N + 2)×(N + 2) positive definite matrix, its determinant |S T · S| ≠ 0, and the inverse matrix (S T · S) -1 is a (N + 2)×(N + 2) positive definite matrix;
[0075] In this embodiment, the excitation fluorescence spectrum F e is a 9×1 order matrix. The multi-band LED bead 14 is used as the excitation light source. The excitation light is focused by the excitation end window 2 to form a light spot, which irradiates the water sample in the light-shielding cover 31 to induce the chlorophyll to generate multi-band fluorescence. The fluorescence is first converged by the receiving end window 1, then collimated by the receiving end collimating mirror 16, and then the stray light is filtered by the filter group 13 to obtain the emitted fluorescence at 680 nm. Finally, it is converted into an electrical signal by the photomultiplier tube 21 and output as the excitation fluorescence spectrum F e , and the matrix S T · F e is a (N + 2)×1 matrix;
[0076] In this embodiment, the concentration result matrix R = (S T · S) -1 · (S T · Fe ) = [r1..r i …r N r N+1 r N+2 T is an (N + 2)×1 matrix, where r i is the concentration of the i-th dominant algal species, r N+1 is the concentration of yellow substances, r N+2 is the water turbidity, and the algal fluorescence spectrum F a = [f a1 …f ai …f a9 is the superposition of the concentrations of each dominant algal species multiplied by the corresponding standard spectra, where f ai is the algal fluorescence at the i-th spectral point;
[0077] In this implementation, the fluorescence kinetics curve F d is a K×1 matrix. A laser diode 9 is used as the excitation light source. The excitation light is focused by the excitation end window 2 to form a light spot, which irradiates the water sample in the light-shielding cover 31 to induce the fluorescence kinetics rising process of chlorophyll. The fluorescence is first converged by the receiving end window 1, then collimated by the receiving end collimating mirror 16, and then the stray light is filtered by the filter group 13 to obtain the emitted fluorescence at 680 nm. Finally, it is converted into an electrical signal by the photomultiplier tube 21 and enters the signal detection circuit for processing and then outputs the fluorescence kinetics curve F d , and the fluorescence kinetics model is: F = F0 + F V (1 - e -EσT ), where F = [f1 f2…f K T is the variable fluorescence, F0 is the initial fluorescence, F V is the maximum variable fluorescence, T = [t1 t2…t K is the sampling time series, and the average value of the first 10 fluorescence f 1st = Σi = 10 i = 1f i / 10, and the average value of the last 10 fluorescence f end = Σi = K i = K - 9f i / 10. By inputting f 1st and f end into the fluorescence kinetics model, the value range of E σ can be obtained, and the intermediate matrix D = [D1…D i …D K T , where D i = [1 1 - e -Eσti ;
[0078] In this implementation, the matrix D T ·D is a 2×2 positive definite matrix, and the determinant |DT ·D|≠0, the inverse matrix (D T ·D) -1 is a 2×2 matrix, and the matrix D T ·F d is a 2×1 matrix, and the fluorescence result matrix Y = (D T ·D) -1 ·(D T ·F d ) = [F0F V ) T is a 2×1 matrix;
[0079] In this implementation, the normalized spectral S of the light intensity of the white light LED lamp bead 18 w = [s w1 …s wi …s w9 is obtained by measuring with a spectrometer and normalizing the light intensity. s wi is the white light spectral response of the i-th spectral point. The primary productivity model is GPP = E·Σi = 9 i = 1s wi ·f ai ·F’ V / F’ M / F V / F M .
[0080] When performing chlorophyll concentration detection, the multi-band LED lamp beads 14 are sequentially lit. The excitation light forms a light spot after being focused by the excitation end window 2 and irradiates the water sample in the light-shielding cover 31, inducing the chlorophyll to generate multi-band fluorescence. The fluorescence is first converged by the receiving end window 1, then collimated by the receiving end collimating mirror 16, and then the stray light is filtered by the filter group 13 to obtain the emitted 680nm fluorescence. Finally, it is converted into an electrical signal by the photomultiplier tube 21 and enters the signal detection circuit for processing to output the excitation fluorescence spectrum. The least squares method is used to perform spectral inversion on the excitation fluorescence spectrum to obtain the chlorophyll concentration information.
[0081] When performing dark adaptation photosynthetic activity detection, first turn off the white light LED lamp bead 18 to ensure that the inside of the light-shielding cover 31 is in a dark adaptation environment. Then turn on the laser diode 9 as the excitation light source. The excitation light forms a light spot after being focused by the excitation end window 2 and irradiates the water sample in the light-shielding cover 31, inducing the chlorophyll to generate the rising process of fluorescence kinetics. The fluorescence is first converged by the receiving end window 1, then collimated by the receiving end collimating mirror 16, and then the stray light is filtered by the filter group 13 to obtain the emitted 680nm fluorescence. Finally, it is converted into an electrical signal by the photomultiplier tube 21 and enters the signal detection circuit for processing to output the fluorescence kinetics curve. The least squares method is used to perform fitting inversion on the fluorescence kinetics curve to obtain the dark adaptation photosynthetic activity.

Then turn on the laser diode 9 as the excitation light source. The excitation light forms a light spot after being focused by the excitation - end window pane 2 and irradiates the water sample inside the light - shielding cover 31, inducing the fluorescence kinetic rise process of chlorophyll. The fluorescence is first converged by the receiving - end window pane 1, then collimated by the receiving - end collimating mirror 16, and then the stray light is filtered out by the filter set 13 to obtain the emitted fluorescence at 680 nm. Finally, it is converted into an electrical signal by the photomultiplier tube 21 and enters the signal detection circuit for processing, and then outputs the fluorescence kinetic curve. The least - squares method is used to fit and invert the fluorescence kinetic curve to obtain the light - adapted photosynthetic activity.

Fitting the primary productivity under different light intensities can obtain the rapid light - response curve.
