Microalgae have received much attention for the inorganic nutrient removal in tertiary treatment of domestic wastewater. Effect of different kinds of nitrogen sources on the growth and nitrogen/phosphorus removal properties of a newly isolated freshwater microalga, Scenedesmus sp. LX1, from a low-nutrient environment condition was studied and reported in this paper. The order of specific growth rate of the microalga with different nitrogen sources was NH4-N > urea-N > NO3-N. With nitrate or urea as nitrogen source, the microalga could grow well and remove both nitrogen and phosphorus efficiently (90% nitrogen and nearly 100% phosphorus were removed). However, with ammonium as the nitrogen source, the maximum algal density was relatively low, and the nitrogen and phosphorus removal efficiencies were as low as 31.1% and 76.4%, respectively. This was caused by the inhibitory effect of algal culture's acid pH due to H+ releasing from NH4+ during algal cultivation process. 相似文献

Phosphorus limitation was found in the fermentation production of lincomycin based on the phosphorus elemental analysis. Phosphorus was thus fed into the fermentation system to improve the lincomycin production, and 16 kg fed-phosphorus increased the lincomycin yield by 14.4% compared to that without the phosphorus feeding. As low concentration of dissolved oxygen limited the growth of mycelia, the phosphorus in the base medium and fed-batch were adjusted to give a more reasonable phosphorus distribution. When the phosphorus in the base medium was decreased to 29.4 kg from 33.4 kg and the fed phosphorus was increased from 16.0 kg to 20.0 kg in a 100 m3 fermenter, the final lincomycin titer increased by 21.6% compared to that the un-fed process. The mycelia growth and lincomycin production rates were also increased at the production stage. The phosphorus feeding and adjustment distribution strategy might be applied to other industrial fermentation processes to improve the process efficiency and productivity. 相似文献

A cation exchange resin was added at different stages in the growth of Sorangium cellulosum cultures to remove excess ammonium, which has a negative influence on the production of the anticancer agent, epothilone. When 8 g L−1 of cation exchange resin were added at the mid-death phase, the ammonium removal reached 83% and the maximum production of epothilone was 14.3 mg L−1, which was 2.6 times greater than that of the control culture. 相似文献

The influence of nitrogen and phosphorus pulses on Chaetomorpha linum (Muller) Kutzing growth and photosynthesis was studied in laboratory experiments. Photosynthesis and growth of C. linum from Tancada lagoon seems limited by both nitrogen and phosphorus, as indicated by the high rate (4.7–11.6 mg O2 g−1 dry weight h−1) of light-saturated photosynthesis (Pm) and growth rates observed under nitrogen plus phosphorus enrichment in relation to enrichment by nitrogen alone (2.9–7.6 mg O2 g−1 dry weight h−1). Significant increase in nitrogen and phosphorus content as percentage of dry weight was observed in C. linum fertilized with a single nutrient or with nitrogen plus phosphorus. In Tancada lagoon, when availability of nitrogen to primary producers is by pulses, an increase of nitrate concentration in the water column (from 6 to 100 μM) has a greater effect on growth of C. linum (growth rate: 0.13 day−1) than an increase in ammonium concentration (from 20 to 100 μM and growth rate: 0.11 day−1). For a given thallus nitrogen content (0.6–1.4% N), both Pm and the photosynthetic efficiency (α) normalized to dry weight were correlated (r2 = 0.73, p < 0.005) indicating that variations in electron transport were coupled to variations in C-fixation capacity. Optimizing both α and Pm may be a general characteristic of thin-structured opportunistic algae in more variable estuarine environments. 相似文献

A free-water surface wetland covering an area of 2800 m2 was operated from March 2002 to June 2004 for agricultural runoff treatment in the Dianchi Valley in China. In the wetland were grown Zizania Caduciflora Turez Hand-mazt and Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin.ex Steud. The instantaneous inflow rate was measured and the integrated flux was recorded by an ultrasonic flow instrument all year round. The average inflow rate, hydraulic loading rate (HLR) and hydraulic retention time (HRT) were kept at 242 m3 d?1, 12.7 cm d?1 and 2.0 d, respectively. The annual average total phosphorus (TP) in the inflow was 0.87 mg L?1, and the corresponding removal efficiency was calculated to be 59.0%. Biannual plant uptake and removal by harvesting and seed transport was the main pathway for TP removal, while the influent TP load was 12.9 g m?2 year?1. Hydraulic retention time had a significant positive correlation with the removal of P (r2 = 0.88). Water temperature, inflow phosphorus load, inflow and hydraulic load rates were positively correlated with the removal of P. Inflow phosphorus concentrations were negatively correlated with the removal of P. It is shown that the free-water surface wetland was an effective and economical system for agricultural runoff treatment in lake regions. 相似文献

This research was performed based on a comparative study on fungal lipid production by a locally isolated strain Cunninghamella bainieri 2A1 in batch culture and repeated-batch culture using a nitrogen-limited medium. Lipid production in the batch culture was conducted to study the effect of different agitation rates on the simultaneous consumption of ammonium tartrate and glucose sources. Lipid production in the repeated-batch culture was studied by considering the effect of harvesting time and harvesting volume of the culture broth on the lipid accumulation. The batch cultivation was carried out in a 500 ml Erlenmeyer flask containing 200 ml of the fresh nitrogen-limited medium. Microbial culture was incubated at 30 °C under different agitation rates of 120, 180 and 250 rpm for 120 h. The repeated-batch culture was performed at three harvesting times of 12, 24 and 48 h using four harvesting cultures of 60%, 70%, 80% and 90%. Experimental results revealed that nitrogen source (ammonium tartrate) was fully utilized by C. bainieri 2A1 within 24 h in all agitation rates tested. It was also observed that a high amount of glucose in culture medium was consumed by C. bainieri 2A1 at 250 rpm agitation speed during the batch fermentation. Similar results showed that the highest lipid concentration of 2.96 g/L was obtained at an agitation rate of 250 rpm at 120 h cultivation time with the maximum lipid productivity of 7.0 × 10−2 mg/ml/h. On the other hand, experimental results showed that the highest lipid concentration produced in the repeated-batch culture was 3.30 g/L at the first cycle of 48 h harvesting time using 70% harvesting volume, while 0.23 g/L gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) was produced at the last cycle of 48 h harvesting time using 80% harvesting volume. 相似文献

Four treatment peatlands were studied in Northern Finland in order to determine peat P, Al and Fe concentration distributions and to find removal parameters for nutrient modelling. The sites had been under loading for 10–16 years. About 20 peat samples for analyses of oxalate-extractable and total P, Al and Fe were collected from the depth 0–10 cm in each peatland. The peat P concentration ranged from 0.097 mg g?1 to 14 mg g?1 being 1.7 mg g?1on average. P accumulated in preferential flow path areas. Although P concentrations were locally high, DSSP (the index of potential soil P release from peat to water) was very low in all studied peatlands, indicating that peat was not saturated by phosphorus. The results indicate that Al-based precipitation chemicals increase substantially P retention capacity of peatland and maintain a stabile P reduction in spite of varying P loads. The results also show long-term phosphorus accumulation in peatlands polishing municipal wastewater from activated sludge treatment. The regression analyses showed that k-value for N removal depends on N loading and hydraulic loading. The first-order area model together with regression analysis of the rate constant result in a good agreement between observed and calculated nitrogen concentration. The NH4-N loading to the peatland should be below 0.10 mg m2 d?1 in order to achieve a high reduction of 70%. 相似文献

The effect of nutrient addition on the growth of E. najas was evaluated in a dose response experiment using sand amended with phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N), and in enrichment trials with N and P amendments to natural sediments. Plants, water and sediment came from lagoons of the Upper Paraná River Floodplain and from Itaipu Reservoir (Brazil). Relative growth rates (RGRs) of E. najas shoots, based on dry mass (DM), varied from 0.03 to 0.060 d−1 for both nutrients. Root:shoot biomass ratios were related to sediment exchangeable P (r = −0.419; P = 0.03) and N (r = −0.54; P = 0.006), however root RGR was not related to sediment nutrient concentrations. When natural sediments were amended with N and P, neither shoot nor root RGRs differed among treatments for substrata from either the reservoir or the floodplain lagoons (P > 0.05). Comparison of nutrient concentrations measured in natural sediments collected from several sites in both the Upper Paraná River Floodplain (range 49–213 μg P g−1 DM; 36–373 μg N g−1 DM) and Itaipu Reservoir (range 43–402 μg P g−1 DM; 7.9–238 μg N g−1 DM) showed that sediment N and P from these systems usually exceeded minimum requirements necessary for E. najas growth, as measured in the dose response experiment. Together, these results indicate that E. najas, at least in early stages of development, responds to sediment nutrient amendments and relies upon bottom sediments to meet its N and P requirements and that for at least two Brazilian ecosystems, growth of this species is not limited by insufficient sediment N or P. Thus, reducing N and P in water is not enough to control E. najas growth in short time periods in these ecosystems. 相似文献

The inhibitory effect of ammonium sulfate on a commercial mixed culture, used in biological waste-water treatment was studied under aerobic batch conditions. Several mathematical models of enzyme and growth kinetics including a death factor were analyzed through nonlinear regression to find the best fit to corresponding data of inhibition. The best fit model was found to be the generalized Monod type with a death factor having the biokinetic parameters; μmax 0.681 h−1, Ks 0.224 g dm−3, Ki 56240 g dm−3, K 0.055 g dm−3 and kd 0.052 h−1 to represent the experimental data accurately. The low saturation coefficient value along with high maximum specific growth rate and inhibition coefficient denotes the competitive characteristics of commercial mixed cultures in the biological treatment of high ammonium polluted waste waters. 相似文献

Studies were conducted with crossbred weanling pigs to determine the level of phosphorus needed to be fed when a maize–soyabean meal–whey diet was supplemented with exogenous phytase (Natuphos™). In Trial 1, phytase was added at 1200 phytase units (PTU) kg−1 as phosphorus decreased. The control diet in Phase I (0–14 days) contained 7.3 g kg−1 phosphorus and in Phase II (14–28 days) contained 6.5 g kg−1 phosphorus. Dietary phosphorus was calculated to decrease by 0.8, 1.6 or 2.4 g kg−1 when phytase was supplemented. Chromic oxide was added for estimation of apparent absorption of phosphorus. Performance was optimum when 5.7 and 4.8 g kg−1 phosphorus (analysed levels) were fed with 1200 PTU kg−1 phytase in Phases I and II, respectively. The lowest dietary phosphorus levels did not reduce performance for the overall 28-day period. Apparent phosphorus digestibility was increased by phytase in Phase I when 5.7 g kg−1 phosphorus was fed compared to the control diet and in Phase II when 6.0 g kg−1 phosphorus was fed with phytase. Faecal phosphorus excretion decreased in both phases as dietary phosphorus decreased. Faecal phosphorus excretion was minimized at the lowest phosphorus level with no decrease in performance. The estimated requirement for dietary phosphorus, as determined by the NLIN procedure, is 5.0 g kg−1 in Phase I and 4.3 g kg−1 in Phase II when 1200 PTU kg−1 is used. In Trial 2, phytase was supplemented at 500 PTU kg−1 when phosphorus was decreased in the diet. The control diet contained 6.6 and 6.0 g kg−1 phosphorus in Phases I and II, respectively, and phosphorus was calculated to decrease by 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0 g kg−1 when phytase was added. Daily gain decreased when 5.0 g kg−1 phosphorus was fed in Phase I and when 4.6 or 4.2 g kg−1 (analysed levels) phosphorus was fed in Phase II with 500 PTU kg−1. Faecal phosphorus excretion decreased as dietary phosphorus decreased, but there were no treatment effects on apparent phosphorus digestibility. The dietary phosphorus requirement was estimated to be 5.7 and 5.0 g kg−1 in Phases I and II, respectively, when phytase is fed at 500 PTU kg−1. At the present recommendation of 500 PTU kg−1 in starter feed, phosphorus can be decreased by 0.10 g kg−1. However, higher levels of phytase are needed to actually increase apparent phosphorus digestibility. 相似文献

The trophic transfer of nutrients through the microbial food web is a key top-down control in aquatic ecosystems which is notoriously difficult to evaluate, particularly for planktonic protists. In this study, a sensitive dual-radioactive tracer technique was developed to simultaneously assess the ingestion rate, and carbon- and phosphorus-specific assimilation efficiencies, of the marine planktonic ciliate Strobilidium neptuni feeding on the autotrophic dinoflagellate Heterocapsa triquetra. Dinoflagellate prey were simultaneously 16 h pulse labelled with NaH14CO3 and H333PO4 before being fed to the ciliate, and radioactive labels were traced into ciliate biomass and the experimental medium, as well as being monitored in the prey cells. Rates measured in short-term (10 min) incubations, as commonly used to estimate protist uptake of fluorescently labelled prey, were approximately 6 times higher and 3–6 times more variable than rates measured in longer 3–5 h incubations. The efficiency of accumulation of prey carbon (54±9%) by ciliates was lower than that of prey phosphorus (68±3%) suggesting that the phosphorus to carbon ratio in the ciliates was 1.3 times higher than in the labelled dinoflagellate biomass. Rates of phosphorus accumulation and release were combined to reveal that ciliates consumed 3.2±0.6 dinoflagellates cell?1 h?1. The assessment of carbon tracer release by ciliates was less reliable due to 14CO2 exchange between the experimental media and air. The study concludes that the dual phosphorus–carbon radioactive tracer labelling of algal prey allowed the quantification of protist herbivory and nutrient remineralisation in laboratory experiments, thereby providing a potential technique for studying planktonic microbial trophic interactions in situ. 相似文献

Successful antral formation in vitro from bovine preantral follicles (145–170 μm) has been described previously, but antrum formation from the primary follicle (50–70 μm) has not yet been achieved in vitro. The aim of the study was to establish an optimal culture system supporting the growth and maturation of bovine primary follicles (50–70 μm) in vitro. Bovine primary follicles were cultured in a three-dimensional culture system for 13 or 21 days in alpha-minimum essential medium. Various treatments including follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), 17β-estradiol (E2), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) were tested. The follicular diameter and antrum formation rate were recorded, and follicular maturation markers (P450 aromatase, CYP19A1; anti-Mullerian hormone, AMH; growth differentiation factor-9, GDF9; bone morphogenetic protein-15, BMP15; and type III transforming growth factor β receptor, TGFβR3) were analyzed by real-time RT-PCR. After 21 days of culture under each treatment condition, the follicular diameter was significantly enlarged in the presence of FSH + LH + E2 + bFGF or FSH + LH + E2 + bFGF + EGF (p < 0.05). An addition of 50 ng/ml bFGF or bFGF + 25 ng/ml EGF initiated antrum formation by day 19 and day 17 of culture, and the antral cavity formation rate was 16.7% and 33.3% by 21 days of culture, respectively. The expression of follicular maturation markers (CYP19A1, AMH, GDF9, BMP15 and TGFβR3) was significantly altered. We conclude that addition of 50 ng/ml bFGF + 25 ng/ml EGF to media containing FSH + LH + E2 turned out to be the most effective optimized culture conditions to support the growth and maturation of bovine primary follicles in vitro. 相似文献

Crude glycerol is the primary by-product in the biodiesel industry, which is too costly to be purified into to higher quality products used in the health and cosmetics industries. This work investigated the potential of using the crude glycerol to produce docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6 n-3) through fermentation of the microalga Schizochytrium limacinum. The results showed that crude glycerol supported alga growth and DHA production, with 75–100 g/L concentration being the optimal range. Among other medium and environmental factors influencing DHA production, temperature, trace metal (PI) solution concentration, ammonium acetate, and NH4Cl had significant effects (P < 0.1). Their optimal values were determined 30 mL/L of PI, 0.04 g/L of NH4Cl, 1.0 g/L of ammonium acetate, and 19.2 °C. A highest DHA yield of 4.91 g/L with 22.1 g/L cell dry weight was obtained. The results suggested that biodiesel-derived crude glycerol is a promising feedstock for production of DHA from heterotrophic algal culture. 相似文献

Azadinium spinosum, a small dinoflagellate isolated from the North Sea, is a producer of azaspiracids (AZAs), a group of biotoxins associated with human illness following ingestion of contaminated shellfish. Using batch and continuous cultures of A. spinosum, the present study investigated the effects of different environmental and nutritional factors (salinity, temperature, photon flux density, aeration, culture media, nitrogen sources, phosphate source, and N/P ratios) on growth, maximum cell concentration, and AZA cell quota.Azadinium spinosum grew in a wide range of conditions; from 10 ̊C to 26 ̊C and salinities from 30 to 40, under irradiances ranging from 50 μmol m−2 s−1 to 250 μmol m−2 s−1, with or without aeration. Growth and maximum cell concentration were highest at a salinity of 35, at temperatures between 18 ̊C and 22 ̊C, and with aeration. Concerning AZA cell quota, the most significant effect was observed at low temperature; the AZA cell quota was more than 20 times higher at 10 ̊C (220 fg cell−1) than at temperatures between 18 ̊C and 26 ̊C. A. spinosum grew on all media tested with only slight differences in growth rate and AZA cell quota. In continuous culture, lowering the concentration of nutrients (0.5 strength of a modified K-medium) in the inflow improved AZA cell quota whereas higher concentration (doubling the normal strength of K-medium) improved maximal cell concentration. A. spinosum grew on different sources of nitrogen tested (nitrate, urea, ammonium) with almost no effect on toxin cell quota and growth, except that adding ammonium caused a decrease in growth.These first experiments on Azadinium spinosum increased our knowledge on factors affecting its growth and toxin production; furthermore, these results allowed and improved particularly A. spinosum production in pilot scale photobioreactors for AZA isolation. 相似文献

Cr(VI) removal by Scenedesmus incrassatulus was characterized in a continuous culture system using a split-cylinder internal-loop airlift photobioreactor fed continuously with a synthetic effluent containing 1.0 mg Cr(VI) l?1 at dilution rate (D) of 0.3 d?1. At steady state, there was a small increase (6%) on the dry biomass (DB) concentration of Cr(VI)-treated cultures compared with the control culture. 1.0 mg Cr(VI) l?1 reduced the photosynthetic pigments content and altered the cellular morphology, the gain in dry weight was not affected. At steady state, Cr(VI) removal efficiency was 43.5 ± 1.0% and Cr(VI) uptake was 1.7 ± 0.1 mg Cr(VI) g?1 DB. The system reached a specific metal removal rate of 458 μg Cr(VI) g?1 DB d?1, and a volumetric removal rate of 132 μg Cr(VI) l?1 d?1. 相似文献

A high cell density cultivation protocol was developed for the secretory production of potato carboxypeptidase inhibitor (PCI) in Escherichia coli. The strain BW25113 (pIMAM3) was cultured in fed-batch mode employing minimal media and an exponential feed profile where the specific growth rate was fixed by limitation of the fed carbon source (glycerol). Plasmid loss rates were found to be proportional to the specific growth rate. Distribution of PCI along the cell compartments and the culture media was also dependent on the fixed growth rate. When specific growth rate was kept at μ = 0.10 h−1, 1.4 g PCI L−1 were obtained when adding the product present in periplasmic extracts and supernatant fractions, with a 50% of the total expressed protein recovered from the extracellular medium. This constituted a 1.2-fold increase compared to growth at μ = 0.15 h−1, and 2.0-fold compared to μ = 0.25 h−1. Last, a cell permeabilization treatment with Triton X-100 and glycine was employed to direct most of the product to the culture media, achieving over 81% of extracellular PCI. Overall, our results point out that production yields of secretory proteins in fed-batch cultures of E. coli can be improved by means of process variables, with applications to the production of small disulfide-bridged proteins. Overall, our results point out that control of the specific growth rate is a successful strategy to improve the production yields of secretory expression in fed-batch cultures of E. coli, with applications to the production of small disulfide-bridged proteins. 相似文献

Photosynthetic response of Microcystis aeruginosa PCC7806 to different concentrations of phosphorus supply was studied so as to elucidate if the declining process of Microcystis bloom under freshwater ecosystem is related to soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) decrease in water volume. Growth rate of M. aeruginosa PCC7806 was significantly reduced under P-deficient conditions, and its photosynthetic activity in terms of rETRmax (maximum electron transport rate) decreased significantly after 48 h growth, while it kept elevating and reached to a relative stable value when supplied with rich phosphorus of 0.6 mg/L. With the increasing actinic irradiance along the rapid light curves of M. aeruginosa PCC7806 cultured under low-phosphorus level, qP (photochemical quenching) and rETR (relative electron transport rate) decreased greatly, and the increase in qN (non-photochemical quenching) and ΦPS (actual photochemical efficiency of PSII) was obviously inhibited. The affinity of M. aeruginosa PCC7806 to inorganic carbon was reduced evidently in 0.02 mg/L P compared with in 0.6 mg/L P. When P was reduced from 0.6 to 0.02 mg/L, the decreasing rate of rETRmax (77%) was significantly greater than that of photosynthetic carbon assimilation (22%), which indicated that down-regulation of CO2 affinity caused by P-deficiency was, but not the only reason that resulted in the decline of photosynthetic efficiency. Instantaneous low-temperature significantly limited rETRmax under rich-P condition but had no effect on it when P was insufficient, and 1% ethanol could enhance rETRmax at low-P level but did not influence it at rich-P level. These two results proved that the decrease in thylakoid membrane fluidity caused by P-deficiency was another important reason that results in the decline of photosynthetic efficiency of M. aruginosa PCC7806. 相似文献

The behavior of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb 12 under batch cultivation, after continuous culturing for up to 12 d, was monitored in skim milk-based media. Previous continuous culture for longer than 6 d affected the physiology of said microorganism. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of lactic and acetic acids increased from 18 to 26 g/l, whereas the molar ratio of acetic to lactic acid increased from 0.8 to 1.55, when the previous continuous culture increased its duration from 1 to 12 d. The specific lactose consumption rate decreased from 0.94 to 0.77 glactose/gcell dry mass/h within the batch culture timeframe; this was concomitant with greater amounts of acetic and formic acids, and lower amounts of lactic acid produced. The β-galactosidase activity increased as continuous culturing time increased, and reached 446 units/ml by 12 d; however, the rate of enzyme synthesis decreased concomitantly. Succinic acid was produced during the exponential growth and stationary phases of the batch culture, but the former at exponential growth phase was higher as the continuous culturing time was longer. For comparison purposes, batch cultivation of samples taken from continuous cultures by 1 and 12 d was done using a semi-synthetic medium with glucose as carbon source; a pattern similar to that observed when using skim milk-based media was observed. 相似文献

Twenty-five aerobic phenol-degrading bacteria, isolated from different environmental samples on phenol agar after several subcultures in phenol broth, utilized phenol (0.2 g l−1) within 24 h, but removal of phenol was more rapid when other carbon sources were also present. A microtitre plate method was developed to determine growth rate, biofilm formation and respiratory activity of the strains isolated. Pseudomonas putida strains C5 and D6 showed maximum growth (as O.D. at 600 nm), P. putida D6 and unidentified bacterial strain M1 were more stable at high concentrations of phenol (0.8 g l−1), and P. putida C5 formed the greatest amount of biofilm in 0.5 g phenol l−1 medium. Measurement of dehydrogenase activity as reduction of triphenyl tetrazolium chloride supported data on growth rate and biofilm formation. The microtitre plate method provided a selective method for detection of the best phenol degrading and biofilm-forming microorganisms, and was also a rapid, convenient means of studying the effect of phenol concentration on growth rate and biofilm formation. 相似文献

Fermentation kinetics of growth and β-carotene production by Rhodotorula glutinis DM28 in batch and continuous cultures using fermented radish brine, a waste generated from fermented vegetable industry, as a cultivation medium were investigated. The suitable brine concentration for β-carotene production by R. glutinis DM28 was 30 g l?1. Its growth and β-carotene production obtained by batch culture in shake flasks were 2.2 g l?1 and 87 μg l?1, respectively, while, in a bioreactor were 2.6 g l?1 and 186 μg l?1, respectively. Furthermore, its maximum growth rate and β-carotene productivity in continuous culture obtained at the dilution rate of 0.24 h?1 were 0.3 g l?1 h?1 and 19 μg l?1 h?1, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the batch. Therefore, improved growth rate and β-carotene productivity of R. glutinis in fermented radish brine could be accomplished by continuous cultivation. 相似文献
