Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of bacteria detection, and in particular relates to a culture system, application and detection method suitable for detecting sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in complex on-site environments. Background Art
[0002] Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are a group of prokaryotic microorganisms in ecosystems. SRB are widely found in soil, seawater, river water, underground pipelines, oil and gas wells, and other places. SRB is a typical corrosive bacterium that can use organic matter in the environment to reduce sulfate or other oxidized sulfides during its metabolic process. In addition to producing carbon dioxide and water, this metabolic activity also produces hydrogen sulfide. The production of hydrogen sulfide can cause serious chemical corrosion hazards to contact metals, especially carbon steel, and is one of the problems that need to be overcome in marine engineering. Under special environmental conditions, SRB can also directly use metals or polarized electrodes as electron donors to reduce sulfate, posing a research hazard to marine engineering facilities.
[0003] In the detection of sulfate-reducing bacteria, the current methods involved have their own advantages and disadvantages. The detection method based on characteristic compounds is currently the most commonly used and most effective field experimental method. However, the detection limit of the APS enzyme rapid detection method on the market can only reach 10 3 Given the widespread presence of SRB in various environments and their serious harm to engineering facilities, it is extremely important to detect and monitor their concentration in the environment. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Different testing technologies have different advantages and disadvantages. In response to the above problems and the shortcomings of current technologies, the present invention aims to provide a culture system, application and detection method suitable for detecting sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in complex field environments.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A culture system suitable for detecting sulfate-reducing bacteria in complex field environments is provided. The culture system is prepared by configuring an SRB detection culture medium, introducing an atmospheric gas into the culture medium, and sterilizing the culture medium at high temperature. The atmospheric gas is a mixture of CO2 and H2.
[0007] The culture medium is introduced with a mixed gas of CO2 and H2 until the system is completely filled with atmospheric CO2 and H2, and then sterilized at high temperature to obtain a culture system; wherein the volume ratio of CO2 to H2 is 8:2.
[0008] The SRB detection culture medium is composed of 50mM Na2SO4, 30mM NaC3H5O3, 8.0mMMgCl2, 20mM NH4Cl, 2.2mM K2HPO4 / KH2PO4 (pH7.2), 0.6mM CaCl2, 10mL vitamin solution, 12.5mL trace mineral solution, 30Mm PIPES buffer, 0.06mM resazurin, and 10mM NaOH (pH7.2) per liter of seawater.
[0009] The vitamins are prepared according to the following ratio per liter of distilled water: 2 mg biotin; 2 mg folic acid; 10 mg pyridoxine hydrochloride; 5 mg thiamine hydrochloride; 5 mg riboflavin; 5 mg niacin; 5 mg DL-calcium pantothenate; 0.1 mg vitamin B12; 5 mg p-aminobenzoic acid; 5 mg lipoic acid; and 200 mg choline chloride. The solution is stored at 4° C. under N2 in the dark.
[0010] The trace mineral solution is prepared according to the following ratio per liter of distilled water: 12.8 g aminotriacetic acid (adjusted to pH 6.5 with NaOH); 1 g Fe2Cl.4H2O; 0.5 g MnCl2.4H2O; 0.3 g CoCl2.6H2O; 0.2 g zinc chloride; 50 mg sodium molybdate dihydrate; and 20 mg H3BO3.
[0011] An application of the culture system is the application of the culture system to detect sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) in a complex field environment.
[0012] A method for detecting sulfate-reducing bacteria in complex field environments:
[0013] S1. Process samples;
[0014] S2. configuring the culture system according to claim 1;
[0015] S3, dilute the sample obtained from S1 and then culture it in the S2 culture system;
[0016] S4. Culture the sample at room temperature and detect sulfate-reducing bacteria.
[0017] The S3 is to perform a concentration gradient dilution on the bacteria in step S1, add the diluted bacteria into the S2 culture system and place the bacteria in a constant temperature incubator at 25-35°C for constant temperature culture.
[0018] The step S1 sample processing:
[0019] (1) For liquids: Take a 1 L volume of water sample to be tested and filter it through a 0.22 μm filter membrane. After removing the filter membrane, rinse it with 0.1 M PBS buffer and centrifuge it at 14000 g for 15 minutes. Finally, concentrate the water sample to 1.5 mL and collect it in a centrifuge tube. Store it at 4°C.
[0020] (2) For sediment samples, remove obvious impurities, grind with a mortar, add 978 μL sodium phosphate buffer and 122 μL MT Buffer to the sample, place the centrifuge tube in a shaker, shake at a speed of 6.0 for 40 seconds, centrifuge at 14000g for 15 minutes, and store at 4°C.
[0021] The concentration gradient dilution method is specifically as follows: fill the test bottles with 9mL PBS solution and arrange them in a group, and number them in sequence. Use a sterile syringe to take 1ml of the sample after step S1 treatment, inject it into bottle No. 1 for dilution, shake it thoroughly, and set aside. Use another sterile syringe to extract 1ml of the water sample from bottle No. 1 and shake it thoroughly, inject it into bottle No. 2 for dilution and shake it thoroughly, and set aside. Use another sterile syringe to extract 1ml of the water sample from bottle No. 2 and shake it thoroughly, inject it into bottle No. 3 for dilution and shake it thoroughly, and set aside. Repeat the dilution process until the last bottle is reached and set aside. The bacterial culture method is specifically as follows: add the diluted bacterial solution to the S2 culture system at a 2% inoculation rate. Place all the above test bottles in a constant temperature incubator (29±1°C) for culture.
[0022] The method measures sulfate consumption in a sample over a period of time and establishes a relationship curve between the consumption and bacterial concentration, thereby enabling rapid detection of sulfate-reducing bacteria concentration in complex field environments.
[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0024] The rapid detection method of SRB of the present invention has the characteristics of rapidity, low detection limit and simple operation.
[0025] (1) Compared with the traditional extinction dilution method, the present invention greatly shortens the detection time to 7 days.
[0026] (2) Compared with the traditional extinction dilution method, the detection sensitivity of the present invention is improved by 10 times.
[0027] (3) The present invention is simple to operate, convenient and feasible, and can be adapted to the rapid detection of SRB in complex field environments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
