Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a tetracycline-resistant short-stem Pseudomonas aeruginosa denitrifying bacterium, belonging to the field of wastewater treatment technology. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of environmental science today, nitrogen pollution has become one of the most serious challenges facing global ecosystems. With the acceleration of industrialization, the intensive development of agricultural activities, and the continuous growth of urban populations, large amounts of nitrogenous pollutants are discharged into natural water bodies through industrial wastewater, agricultural runoff, and domestic sewage. These nitrogenous pollutants, such as ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen, accumulate in water bodies, causing a series of serious environmental problems, including eutrophication, excessive algal blooms, and imbalances in aquatic ecosystems, posing a significant threat to the sustainable use of water resources and ecological security. In wastewater treatment, denitrification technology is widely used to control nitrogen pollution. Denitrification is a biochemical process in which microorganisms reduce nitrates and nitrites to nitrogen gas, thereby achieving nitrogen removal. Anaerobic denitrifying bacteria play a crucial role in this process. In wastewater treatment plants responsible for nitrogen removal, the denitrification process undertaken by anaerobic denitrifying bacteria is a vital link in wastewater treatment, and the cultivation and utilization of bacteria with high denitrification rates are of great significance in the operation of wastewater treatment plants.

[0003] Antibiotics are a class of proteins or polypeptides produced by microorganisms that have therapeutic or preventative effects against diseases. There are many types of antibiotics, with common types including macrolides, tetracyclines, sulfonamides, quinolones, aminoglycosides, chloramphenicol, and β-lactams. The inhibitory effects of antibiotics on microorganisms are mainly manifested in their ability to inhibit the synthesis of microbial cell walls, leading to bacterial cell rupture and death; their interaction with the cell membrane, thereby affecting membrane permeability and causing leakage of essential substances such as salt ions, proteins, and nucleic acids; their interference with protein synthesis; their inhibition of nucleic acid replication and transcription; and their impact on bacterial metabolic processes. With the widespread use and improper disposal of antibiotics, such as the indiscriminate discharge of pharmaceutical wastewater, aquaculture wastewater, and agricultural wastewater, antibiotic resistance has spread rapidly among pathogens. This resistance has entered the environment and induced the production of large numbers of resistant bacteria (ARBs) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), becoming a major challenge in global public health and seriously threatening human health. The long-term presence of antibiotics not only harms the ecological environment, but may also selectively promote the growth of drug-resistant strains, further exacerbating the risk of the spread of resistance genes in environmental microbial communities. Therefore, drug-resistant strains that can survive in high antibiotic environments and maintain efficient denitrification capabilities have become a research hotspot for solving the dual problems of antibiotic pollution and nitrogen pollution.

[0004] Antibiotic resistance has exceeded 100 species in anaerobic denitrification systems of wastewater treatment plants, with tetracyclines dominating. Tetracyclines are widely used antibiotics and, due to their difficulty in environmental degradation, have become a typical persistent pollutant. Tetracycline pollution inhibits the activity of some microorganisms, thereby affecting the stability of the microbial community and denitrification efficiency in wastewater treatment. Therefore, screening and cultivating antibiotic-resistant strains that can maintain stable denitrification capacity in the presence of tetracyclines has significant theoretical and practical value for the simultaneous treatment of nitrogen and antibiotic pollution.

[0005] While some studies have reported the application of drug-resistant strains in wastewater treatment, most strains have limited resistance ranges and low denitrification efficiency. Furthermore, the adaptability and stability of existing strains in high-concentration antibiotic environments remain unresolved challenges. Therefore, developing an anaerobic strain with high denitrification capacity and tetracycline resistance is of significant practical importance for improving wastewater treatment technology.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0024] A tetracycline-resistant short-rod Pseudomonas aeruginosa denitrifying bacterium, including an anaerobic denitrifying resistant strain, is disclosed. The strain is named Pseudomonas aeruginosa YF2024, with the accession number CGMCC NO.34912. The morphology of the anaerobic denitrifying resistant strain is short rod-shaped, 1.0-1.5 μm long and 0.6-0.7 μm in diameter. It is Gram-negative, VP-positive, and tetracycline-sensitive.

[0025] Anaerobic denitrifying resistant strains still maintain a high denitrification rate under high nitrogen source conditions, and are anaerobic denitrifying bacteria with high denitrification capacity, with a nitrate nitrogen degradation rate of up to 98%. High nitrogen source refers to a C / N ratio of 5.

[0026] Anaerobic denitrification resistant strains are highly resistant anaerobic denitrifying bacteria that can still carry out anaerobic denitrification processes even under high concentrations of antibiotics, especially tetracycline. Specifically, these anaerobic denitrification resistant strains were tested at gradients of tetracycline concentrations: 0.5 mg / L, 1 mg / L, 2 mg / L, 4 mg / L, 8 mg / L, 16 mg / L, 32 mg / L, 64 mg / L, 128 mg / L, 256 mg / L, and 512 mg / L. Even at a high concentration of 512 mg / L, they still maintained high denitrification efficiency.

[0027] A tetracycline-resistant, short-stem Pseudomonas aeruginosa denitrifying bacterium was developed using conventional microbial isolation and selective culture techniques, specifically including the following steps:

[0028] 1. Sampling

[0029] Sludge samples were taken from the Yangjiabao Wastewater Treatment Plant in Xiaodian District, Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province.

[0030] 2. Pretreatment

[0031] (1) Aerate the sludge for 1.5 hours to remove residual organic and inorganic matter in the sludge.

[0032] (2) Rinse with ultrapure water at least five times to remove unnecessary impurities from the sludge.

[0033] (3) Finally, nitrogen gas is used for aeration to remove trace amounts of oxygen in the sludge and reduce its ORP to below -120 mV.

[0034] 3. Limiting dilution

[0035] (1) Prepare a series of sterile test tubes.

[0036] (2) Take the initial diluted sample from the sample and transfer it to the first test tube.

[0037] (3) Transfer a certain amount of diluted sample to the next test tube and repeat the dilution process.

[0038] (4) Each dilution increases the sequence by an order of magnitude.

[0039] 4. Enrichment culture

[0040] (1) Experimental design: Six anaerobic bottles were set up for the experiment, of which A, B, C, and D were the experimental groups, and E and F were the blank groups, i.e., no antibiotic TC was added. The TC concentration in the enrichment medium was prepared in sequence at the ratios of 1 mg / L, 5 mg / L, and 10 mg / L, and each concentration was cultured for three cycles, for a total of nine cycles. The one with the highest denitrification capacity was selected for subculturing.

[0041] (2) Steps: Take a 1:30 volume from the final dilution and put it onto the anaerobic denitrifying bacteria enrichment medium. Purge the medium with nitrogen for 2-3 minutes to remove oxygen from the water. Incubate in a 35 ℃ constant temperature incubator for 3-4 days with a shaking speed of 150 r / min for a period of three weeks.

[0042] 5. Marking lines on a flat surface

[0043] Using a smooth, flat inoculation loop, aseptically pick up a small amount of a series of enriched cultures and streak them onto plates. After streaking, invert the plates and place them in an anaerobic bag, then incubate at 35°C for 24 hours. Select colonies with distinct blue circles and different morphologies and streak them six times for purification.

[0044] 6. Preliminary screening of bacterial strains

[0045] Single colonies from the final streak plate were transferred to 10 mL LB broth tubes for sealed anaerobic culture. The Durbin tubes were inverted, and two replicates were made for each colony. The tubes were incubated at 35°C for 3 days. Bacterial growth and gas production in the Durbin tubes were observed. The nitrogen content of strains with significant gas production was measured and inoculated onto BTB plates for verification. Finally, strains with strong denitrification ability were selected as experimental strains.

[0046] 7. Strain identification

[0047] Genomic DNA was extracted from the strain using a DNA kit from the bioengineering platform, and PCR amplification was performed using 16S rRNA gene amplification primers.

[0066] 3. Sugar fermentation experiment

[0067] Prepare a fresh liquid culture medium for sugar fermentation, inoculate the target strain into the medium, and incubate at 35°C for 3 days. Observe the color change of the culture medium. If the bacterial solution turns yellow, it indicates a positive result; otherwise, it indicates a negative result.

[0068] 4. Oxygen Demand Test

[0069] Prepare a fresh anaerobic denitrification liquid culture medium, inoculate the target strain, and place them in a shaker at 30℃ for 3 days. Observe the growth of the strain. If the culture medium becomes turbid, it indicates a positive result; otherwise, it indicates a negative result.

[0070] 5. Catalase test

[0071] Prepare catalase solid culture medium in advance and put it into test tubes. Pick a single colony from the anaerobic denitrification plate containing the target strain and inoculate it onto the solid test tube. After incubating at 35°C for 3 days, observe the changes in the test tube. If black substance is produced at the bottom of the test tube, it indicates a positive result; otherwise, it indicates a negative result.

[0072] 6. Starch test

[0073] Prepare fresh starch culture medium plates in advance. Pick a single colony from the anaerobic denitrification plate containing the target strain and inoculate it onto the starch culture medium plate. Incubate overnight at 35°C.

[0076] 8. Morphological observation

[0077] Single colonies were picked from plates containing the target bacterial strain and evenly distributed, and diluted to various gradients of sterile water. A 10-10 dilution was then performed. -6 and 10 -7 Two gradients were spread separately on anaerobic denitrification plates, and the culture conditions were set at 35℃ anaerobic. Colony growth was observed during the culture process. After the colonies on the plates were of moderate size and evenly distributed, the morphology of the colonies, such as shape, size, transparency, color, and whether the edges were neat, was observed, recorded, and photographed.

Dehydrate with 50%, 70%, 80%, and 90% ethanol solutions, 10-15 min each time, then dehydrate three times with 100% ethanol, 10-15 min each time. Prepare a 1:1 mixture of 100% ethanol and isoamyl acetate and pure isoamyl acetate for displacement, once each, 15 min each time. Pick up the displacement sample with a needle, place it in a small box made of folded filter paper, and dry in a desiccator for 8 h. Use double-sided tape to attach the sample, observation side up, to the aluminum plate of a scanning electron microscope. Deposit a 1500 nm thick metal film on the sample surface using an IB-5 (Giko) ion sputtering coating instrument.

[0114] The highest concentration of drug was added to the first row of wells in a 96-well plate, followed by a two-fold serial dilution. This involved adding a certain amount of drug solution from the first row of wells to the second row, mixing thoroughly, and then adding the same amount from the second row to the third row, and so on, until the last row of wells. The drug concentration in each row of wells decreased progressively.

[0115] 3. Inoculation with bacterial culture

[0116] Add an equal amount of bacterial solution to each well containing a different concentration of drug, and set up a positive control (containing only bacterial solution, without drug) and a negative control (containing only culture medium, without bacterial solution and drug).

[0117] 4. Cultivation

[0118] Place the 96-well plate in a suitable culture environment, usually a constant temperature incubator at 37°C, and incubate for 16-24 hours.

[0119] 5. Results Observation

[0120] After incubation, observe bacterial growth in each well. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) is defined as the lowest drug concentration required to completely inhibit bacterial growth.

[0121] 6. Data Analysis

[0122] Based on the observation results, record the bacterial growth at each drug concentration, usually indicated by "+" for growth and "-" for no growth. Determine the MIC value, i.e., the minimum inhibitory concentration.

[0123] The results show that the above Pseudomonas aeruginosa Even with high concentrations (512 mg / L) of tetracycline, strain YF2024 was still able to carry out anaerobic denitrification.

[0124] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of the present invention.
