Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of microbiology and bio-nano selenium preparation technology, specifically to a strain of Sphingopyxis sp. R3-92 and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Selenium is a naturally occurring element with primary valence states of -2, 0, tetra, and hexavalent. Since the advent of the industrial age, the glass manufacturing industry has utilized selenium for coloring and decolorization, the metallurgical industry has used selenium dioxide to electrolyze manganese, and mining processes generate selenium dust and selenium-containing waste. Furthermore, selenium, as an essential trace element for humans and animals, has important applications in health products, feed, and fertilizers. The high-selenium wastewater generated by these industrial activities mainly contains selenate [Se(VI)] and selenite [Se(IV)], two highly toxic inorganic selenium compounds. Ingestion of high concentrations of selenium can cause selenium poisoning, leading to nail and hair loss, loss of appetite, reduced reproductive function, and weakened immunity. In contrast, nano-selenium is a low-toxicity, highly bioactive antibacterial agent with enormous application potential in the biomedical field and in food and feed additives. Therefore, using microorganisms to reduce selenate or selenite to nano-selenium is a low-cost, green, and efficient method for remediating selenium-polluted wastewater.
[0003] *Sphingopyxis*, belonging to the family Sphingomonadaceae, is widely distributed in soil, water, and plant rhizosphere. Currently, 22 species in this genus have been officially published. *Sphingopyxis* possesses significant potential for degrading various environmental pollutants, such as microcystins, cyhalofop-butyl, and chlorpyrifos, and also has the ability to adsorb cadmium and manganese from water, making it an important microbial resource for bioremediation. [1] There are currently no reports of sphingosine box bacteria biotransforming selenium compounds. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sphingopyxis sp. R3-92 strain capable of efficiently converting selenite and / or selenate into nano-selenium and its applications.

[0024] Five g of rhizosphere soil was collected from selenium-rich soil and added to 95 mL of sterile physiological saline. The mixture was cultured at 25°C and 150 rpm for 30 min with shaking. After a 10-fold serial dilution, 100 μL of the diluted solution was spread onto NA plates containing 50 mM selenite (NA medium: peptone 10.0 g / L, beef extract 3.0 g / L, sodium chloride 5.0 g / L, agar 15.0 g / L, pH 7.3±0.1, sterilized at 121°C for 15 min). The plates were cultured at 28°C for 2 days to obtain selenite-tolerant and reducing strains. From these strains, a strain R3-92 capable of reducing selenite to generate nano-selenium was isolated and purified.
[0025] 2. Analysis of colony and cell morphology characteristics
[0026] After incubating for 2 days on TSA agar plates (TSA medium: tryptone 15.0 g / L, soybean peptone 5.0 g / L, sodium chloride 5.0 g / L, agar 18.0 g / L, pH 7.3±0.1, sterilized at 121℃ for 15 min), R3-92 colonies were round with neat edges, light yellow in color, moist on the surface, and did not produce pigment.

[0027] 3. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene of strain R3-92
[0028] Genomic DNA was extracted from strain R3-92 using a bacterial DNA extraction kit (DL111-01, BMamp). The 16S rRNA gene was amplified using primers 27F (5'-AGAGTTTGATCCTGGCTCAG-3') and 1492R (5'-GGTTACCTTGTTACGACTT-3'). The PCR system (25 μL) consisted of: 12.5 μL of mixed enzyme; 1.0 μL each of primers (10 μM); 1.0 μL of DNA template (100 ng / μL); and 9.5 μL of ddH2O. The PCR reaction program was as follows: 94℃ -10 min; 94℃ 40 s, 56℃ 40 s, 72℃ 40 s, 30 cycles; 72℃ 10 min. The molecular size of the amplified products was identified by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis. The PCR products were purified and sequenced, and the sequencing results were assembled using DNAMAN software. The 16S rRNA sequence of R3-92 was compared with bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences in the NCBI database (https: / / blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / Blast.cgi) using the BLAST program. The results showed that the 16S rRNA gene sequence of R3-92 had the highest similarity with *Sphingopyxis panaciterrae* strains, with R3-92 showing the highest similarity with *Sphingopyxis panaciterrae* Gsoil 124.

[0029] 4. Genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis
[0030] Whole-genome sequencing of strain R3-92 was performed using the Illumina NovaSeq PE150 platform. The results showed that the genome size of R3-92 was 4.8 Mb, with a GC content of 63.3 mol%. Both the genome size and GC content of strain R3-92 were within the range of the *Sphingopyxis* genus (Table 1). A phylogenetic tree of 92 core genes from R3-92 and related taxa of the *Sphingopyxis* genus was constructed using the Universal Bacterial Core Genes (UBCG). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that R3-92 belongs to the *Sphingopyxis* genus and is related to *Sphingopyxis witflariensis* DSM 14551. TClosest kinship ( Figure 3 ).

[0033] 5. Genome similarity analysis
[0034] The average nucleotide similarity (ANI) between its genome and other type strains of *Sphingosine Box* was calculated using JSpeciesWS (https: / / jspecies.ribohost.com / jspeciesws / #analyse). The digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) value was calculated using GGDC Calculator 3.0 (http: / / ggdc.dsmz.de). Figure 4 The results showed that R3-92 had the highest genomic similarity to *Sphingopyxis witflariensis*, particularly to *Sphingopyxis witflariensis* DSM 14551. T The highest ANI and dDDH values were observed, at 87.0% and 35.4%, respectively; followed by *Sphingopyxis panaciterrae* DSM 27164. T The percentages were 80.8% and 25.4%, respectively. However, the ANI and dDDH values of R3-92 and the type strain of the genus Sphingopyxis were both lower than the species threshold (ANI < 95%, dDDH < 70%), indicating that strain R3-92 is a new species of the genus Sphingopyxis, and it is proposed to be named Sphingopyxis selenitireducens.
[0035] 6. Tolerance test of strain R3-92
[0036] Fresh single colonies of strain R3-92 were inoculated onto TSA agar plates and incubated for 4 days at 4, 10, 20, 28, 30, 32, 34, 37, 40, and 42°C, respectively, to observe the growth of the strain. Single colonies of R3-92 were then inoculated into TSB agar tubes (TSB medium: 15.0 g / L tryptone, 5.0 g / L soybean peptone, 5.0 g / L sodium chloride, pH 7.3±0.1, sterilized at 121°C for 15 min) and activated by shaking at 28°C and 150 rpm for 12 h. OD was then adjusted. 600The pH was set at 0.8 as the seed culture. 1% R3-92 seed culture was inoculated into TSA medium containing 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, and 8% (w / v) NaCl, respectively, and incubated at 28℃ and 150 rpm for 4 days. Growth was observed. The pH of TSB medium was adjusted to 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11 with citric acid (0.1 M) and NaOH (0.1 M), respectively. 1% R3-92 seed culture was then inoculated into the medium, and incubated at 28℃ and 150 rpm for 4 days. Growth was observed. The results showed that strain R3-92 had higher tolerance to temperature and salinity than its closely related relatives, with a growth temperature range of 4-37℃ and a growth pH range of 7-10. It could tolerate 4% NaCl (Table 2).
[0037] 7. Measurement of physiological and biochemical indicators
[0038] According to the "Handbook for Identifying Common Bacteria" [2] The physiological and biochemical characteristics of strain R3-92 were determined using conventional microbial identification methods.

[0042] Based on the phylogenetic analysis, genome sequence similarity comparison, and the aforementioned microbiological characteristics and physiological and biochemical properties, strain R3-92 was identified as a new species of the genus *Sphingosine Box*. This strain has been deposited at the Guangdong Provincial Center for Microbial Culture Collection on August 11, 2023, with accession number GDMCC No. 63729.
[0043] Example 2: Tolerance of strain R3-92 to selenate and selenite
[0044] Single colonies of R3-92 were picked and inoculated into LB tubes (yeast extract 5 g / L, tryptone 10 g / L, sodium chloride 10 g / L, solid medium supplemented with agar 18 g / L, pH 7.0-7.2, sterilized at 121℃ for 20 min), and activated by shaking at 28℃ and 150 rpm for 12 h. OD was then adjusted. 600 The concentration was 0.8, which was used as the seed culture. The R3-92 seed culture was serially diluted with sterile physiological saline in a 10-fold gradient, and 2.5 μL of each solution was added to a selenium-containing plate. After being dried with sterile air, the plate was incubated at 28°C for 48 h.
[0045] The growth of strain R3-92 on selenium-containing plates is shown in the figure. Figure 5 The results showed that R3-92 could tolerate 100 mM selenate (sodium selenate) and 80 mM selenite (sodium selenite). Colonies grown on selenite plates were bright red, indicating that R3-92 could reduce selenite to red selenium nanoparticles. On plates with high concentrations of selenate, R3-92 colonies showed a lighter red color, indicating that it could generate small amounts of selenium nanoparticles under high-concentration selenate conditions.
[0046] Example 3: The reducing ability of strain R3-92 to selenite

The physicochemical characteristics of the nano-selenium synthesized by strain R3-92, such as shape, particle size and element type, were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS).
[0051] The results showed that the selenium nanoparticles synthesized by strain R3-92 through the reduction of Se(IV) were spherical with a particle size between 100 and 300 nm, and mainly attached to the extracellular matrix of bacteria. Figure 7 EDS analysis of the nanoparticles showed characteristic peaks of selenium at 1.37 keV, 11.22 keV, and 12.50 keV, with a selenium mass ratio of 97.0%, indicating that the nanoparticles synthesized by the strain were nano-selenium.

The temperature was 28 ± 0.5℃, the rotation speed was 150 rpm, and the aeration rate was 0.5 vvm throughout the fermentation process. After 24 h of fermentation, the content of nano-selenium in the fermentation broth was determined by sodium sulfide spectrophotometry. The results showed that after 24 h of fermentation, strain R3-92 could reduce and generate 0.83 mM nano-selenium, with an 84% increase in yield and a 50% reduction in fermentation time.
[0054] Example 6: Isolation and purification of nano-selenium synthesized by strain R3-92
[0055] 1. Separation and Purification: The fermentation broth prepared in Example 5 was centrifuged at 8000 rpm for 10 min. The resulting red precipitate was washed three times with sterile physiological saline and resuspended in purified water to obtain a nano-selenium suspension.

[0059] Example 7: Application of bio-nano selenium in selenium-enriched fertilizers, feeds, functional foods, health products, and pharmaceuticals
[0060] Example 1: Bio-nano selenium powders A and B were suspended in purified water to prepare selenium-enriched fertilizers A and B at concentrations of 1-5 g / L. Fertilizers A and B were then used in the cultivation of grain crops such as wheat, rice, and corn; miscellaneous grains such as soybeans, peanuts, millet, and sweet potatoes; edible fungi such as enoki mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and wood ear mushrooms; vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplants, and cucumbers; and fruits such as apples and kiwis, as well as tea cultivation, to obtain reprocessable selenium-enriched crops, selenium-enriched edible fungi, selenium-enriched fruits, and selenium-enriched tea.
