Thick film oxygen electrodes manufactured by screen print method have been used as a transducer for a biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor. The kinetics of the immobilized yeast, Arxula adeninivorans (Arxula) has been studied. The apparent KM of immobilized Arxula (> 100 microM) is higher than free cells of Arxula (70 microM). The increase in KM caused by the effect of immobilization extends the linear range of the sensor. End-point measurement and quasi-kinetic measurement have been studied comparatively as measurement procedures with a good correlation. The Vmax for end-point measurement is 790.7 microM/s and that for quasi-kinetic measurement is 537.3 microM/s. The limit of detection is calculated 1.24 mg/l BOD. Using the quasi-kinetic measurement, instead of end-point measurements, the measuring time can be reduced from 5-30 min to 100 s. The sensor layer thickness or increase in the layer of covering gel can increase the KM that is accompanied with the extension of the linear range of the sensor. Nevertheless, increase in the layer of covering gel will not increase the saturation signal. Domestic wastewater was checked by the thick film BOD sensor and the results are satisfactory. 相似文献

A microbial sensor for rapid measurement of the amount of biodegradable substances based on the salt-tolerant yeast Arxula adeninivorans LS3 has been developed especially for coastal and island regions. Our parameter, the so-called sensorBOD, that is available after only a few minutes, agrees with the 5-day value for the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) very well. We have employed the Arxula sensor in the short-time estimation and supervision of the BOD of both domestic and industrial wastewater with high salinity. The novel sensor makes it possible to monitor the different types of wastewater rapidly without pretreatment, and it can be used for an active process control of sewage treatment works. Compared to a commercially available sensor, the novel sensor achieves better agreement between sensorBOD and BOD5 measurements with salt containing samples. 相似文献

The yeast Arxula adeninivorans LS3 is a suitable organism for use as part of a microbial sensor. In combination with an amperometric oxygen electrode the sensor offered a possibility for the physiological characterization of this yeast. About 300-400 measurements could be carried out with a single Arxula sensor. The microbial sensor was remarkably stable for over 35 days, when kept at 37 °C during the operation time and at room temperature overnight. The physiological characteristics of Arxula adeninivorans LS3 obtained with the sensor technique were identical to the data obtained with the conventional techniques. However, the sensor technique makes it additionally possible to quantify the physiological data. So the substrates ribose, citric acid, glycerol, oil and benzoate produced signals lower than 10% in comparison to the glucose signal. Fructose, xylose, sucrose, maltose, gentianose, glucosamine, glutamic acid, tryptophan, butyric acid, lauryl acid and propionic acid reached 10-70%, galactose, alanine, glycine, lysine and methionine signals were similar to the glucose signal whereas acetic acid, ethyl alcohol, capron acid, capryl acid and caproic acid reached the highest signals up to 434%. 相似文献

Mediated microbial biosensor using a novel yeast strain for wastewater BOD measurement 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Two new yeast strains (SPT1 and SPT2) were isolated and immobilized on glassy carbon electrodes to form microbial biosensors for estimation of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). Ferricyanide was proven to be the most efficient mediator to shuttle electrons from the redox center of reduced microbial enzymes to the electrode in the presence of excess glucose/glutamic acid (GGA). With a 3-fold greater metabolic assimilation capability and greater responses to various effluent samples, SPT1 was selected for sensor-BOD measurements. BOD estimations for the GGA standard resulted in an extended linear range: 2-100 mg/l. Response reproducibility was +/-10% for a GGA standard containing 10 mg BOD/l. For analysis of pulp mill effluents, the BOD detection limit was 2 mg/l with a response time of 5 min. 相似文献

Summary Microbial amperometric sensors for biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) determination using Bacillus subtilis or Trichosporon cutaneum cells immobilized in polyvinylalcohol have been developed. These sensors allow BOD measurements with very short response times (15–30s), a level of precision of ±5% and an operation stability of 30 days. A linear range was obtained for a B. subtilis-based sensor up to 20 mg/l BOD and for a T. cutaneum-based sensor up to 100 mg/l BOD using a glucose/glutamic acid standard. 相似文献

Novel BOD (biological oxygen demand) sensor using mediator-less microbial fuel cell 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
A microbial fuel cell type of biosensor was used to determine the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) of wastewater. The biosensor gave a good correlation between the BOD value and the coulomb produced. The BOD sensor has been operated for over 5 years in a stable manner without any servicing. This is much longer that that of previously reported BOD biosensors. 相似文献

Disposable sensor for biochemical oxygen demand 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Disposable-type microbial sensors were prepared for the determination of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). The yeast, Trichosporon cutaneum, was directly immobilized on the surface of miniature oxygen electrodes using an ultraviolet crosslinking resin (ENT-3400).
The oxygen electrodes (15 mm× 2 mm×0.4 mm) were made on silicon substrates using micromachining techniques. They were Clark-type
two-electrode systems with−1021 mV applied to the working electrode. Typical response times of the BOD sensors were in the
range of 7–20 min. At 20°C, the sensors’ dynamic range was from 0 to 18 mg/l BOD when a glucose/glutamate BOD standard solution
was used. The lower limit of detection was 0.2 mg/l BOD. This value was one order of magnitude lower than that of sensors
previously reported. The sensors’ operational lifetime of 3 days was satisfactory for a disposable type. The sensors’ responses
were reproducible to within 8% relative standard deviation. The BOD sensors’ were applied to untreated and treated waste waters
from industrial effluents and municipal sewage. BOD values determined using these sensors correlated well with those determined
by the conventional 5-day BOD determination method.

Artificial microbial co-cultures were formed to develop the receptor element of a biosensor for assessment of biological oxygen demand (BOD). The co-cultures possessed broad substrate specificities and enabled assays of water and fermentation products within a broad BOD range (2.4–80 mg/dm3) with a high correlation to the standard method (R = 0.9988). The use of the co-cultures of the yeasts Pichia angusta, Arxula adeninivorans and Debaryomyces hansenii immobilized in N-vinylpyrrolidone-modified poly(vinyl alcohol) enabled developing a BOD biosensor possessing the characteristics not inferior to those in the known biosensors. The results are indicative of a potential of using these co-cultures as the receptor element base in prototype models of instruments for broad application. 相似文献

Improvement of a microbial fuel cell performance as a BOD sensor using respiratory inhibitors 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Studies were made to improve the performance of a microbial fuel cell (MFC) as a biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor. The signal from MFCs decreased in the presence of electron acceptors of higher redox potential such as nitrate and oxygen. The addition of azide and cyanide did not change the signal in the absence of the electron acceptors. The respiratory inhibitors eliminated the inhibitory effects of the electron acceptors on the current generation from MFCs. Similar results were obtained using oligotrophic MFCs fed with an environmental sample that contained nitrate. The use of the respiratory inhibitors is therefore recommended for the accurate BOD measurement of environmental samples containing nitrate and/or oxygen with an MFC-type BOD sensor. 相似文献

The rapid determination of waste-water quality of waste-water treatment plants in terms of pollutional strength, i.e. biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is difficult or even impossible using the chemical determination method. The present study reports the determination of BOD within minutes using microbial BOD sensors, as compared to the 5-day determination using the conventional method. Multiple criteria establish the basis for the development of a BOD biosensor useful for rapid and reliable BOD estimation in industrial waste-waters. Of these, preparation of a suitable novel immobilized microbial membrane used in conjunction with an apt transducer is discussed. As a result, a microbial biosensor based on a formulated, synergistic, pre-tested microbial consortium has been developed for the measurement of BOD load of various industrial waste-waters. The sensor showed maximum response in terms of current difference, when a cell concentration of 2.25 x 10(10) CFU, harvested in their log phase of growth were utilized for microbial membrane construction. The sensor showed a stability of 180 days when the prepared membranes were stored at a temperature of 4 degrees C in 50 mM phosphate buffer of pH 6.8. The reusability of the immobilized membranes was up to 200 cycles without appreciable loss of their response characteristics. A linear relationship between the current change and a glucose-glutamic acid (GAA) concentration up to 60 mg l(-1) was observed (r=0.999). The lower detection limit was 1.0 mg l(-1) BOD. The sensor response was reproducible within +/-5% of the mean in a series of ten samples having 44 mg l(-1) BOD using standard a GGA solution. When used for the BOD estimation of industrial waste-waters, a relatively good agreement was found between the two methods, i.e. 5-day BOD and that measured by the developed microbial sensor. 相似文献

Summary A bacterial mixed culture was immobilized in Millipore filters to construct microbial-membranes for BOD determination using
an oxygen electrode. The biosensor response was best when 0.5 mg cells were immobilized per cm2 of membrane, at 30°C, pH 7 and 0.05 M phosphate buffer. Reproducible microbial-membranes can be constructed and they can
be stored for up to 20 days without appreciable loss of their response characteristics. 相似文献

A sensor, based on a submersible microbial fuel cell (SUMFC), was developed for in situ monitoring of microbial activity and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in groundwater. Presence or absence of a biofilm on the anode was a decisive factor for the applicability of the sensor. Fresh anode was required for application of the sensor for microbial activity measurement, while biofilm‐colonized anode was needed for utilizing the sensor for BOD content measurement. The current density of SUMFC sensor equipped with a biofilm‐colonized anode showed linear relationship with BOD content, to up to 250 mg/L (~233 ± 1 mA/m2), with a response time of <0.67 h. This sensor could, however, not measure microbial activity, as indicated by the indifferent current produced at varying active microorganisms concentration, which was expressed as microbial adenosine‐triphosphate (ATP) concentration. On the contrary, the current density (0.6 ± 0.1 to 12.4 ± 0.1 mA/m2) of the SUMFC sensor equipped with a fresh anode showed linear relationship, with active microorganism concentrations from 0 to 6.52 nmol‐ATP/L, while no correlation between the current and BOD was observed. It was found that temperature, pH, conductivity, and inorganic solid content were significantly affecting the sensitivity of the sensor. Lastly, the sensor was tested with real contaminated groundwater, where the microbial activity and BOD content could be detected in <3.1 h. The microbial activity and BOD concentration measured by SUMFC sensor fitted well with the one measured by the standard methods, with deviations ranging from 15% to 22% and 6% to 16%, respectively. The SUMFC sensor provides a new way for in situ and quantitative monitoring contaminants content and biological activity during bioremediation process in variety of anoxic aquifers. Biotechnol.

We characterized a mediator-type biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor with a three-electrode system using potassium ferricyanide (FC) and Pseudomonas fluorescens in our previous study. In the present study, we have utilized the advantages of a mediator-type biosensor, which does not require air-supply equipment for on-site measurements, and made a fully disposable sensor tip for a portable device. The tip consists of a two-electrode system with P. fluorescens immobilized on a cellulose acetate membrane and is packaged in polyester film to prevent it from drying out. By aeration with a 0.1 M NaCl solution of P. fluorescens (after growth), the sensor responses as well as their reproducibility and stability have been successfully improved. The responses increased more than seven times, and the calibration curve from 15 to 260 mg l(-1) also remained linear although the response decreased approximately half the original after at least 35 days in storage. The reproducibility of the sensor responses improved to 12.7% (average of relative standard deviations (RSDs)) in the calibration curve obtained by using the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development synthetic sewage. Examination of real samples from three different sources showed that the BOD as determined by the sensor correlates well with the conventional 5-day BOD method (r(2)=0.982, 0.823, and 0.809). Consequently, the aeration process makes it possible to realize rapid, and in situ measurements without the long conditioning process that is generally required to activate the microorganisms immobilized on bio-films before use. Finally, we have designed a portable device that utilizes our disposable sensor tip. 相似文献

A biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor has been developed, which is based on an immobilized mixed culture of microorganisms combined with a dissolved oxygen (DO) optical fiber. The sensing film for BOD measurement consists of an organically-modified silicate (ORMOSIL) film embedded with tri(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) ruthenium(II) perchlorate and three kinds of seawater microorganisms immobilized on a polyvinyl alcohol sol-gel matrix. The BOD measurements were carried out in the kinetic mode inside a light-proof cell and with constant temperature. Measurements were taken for 3 min followed by 10 min recovery time in 10 mg/L glucose/glutamate (GGA) BOD standard solution, and the range of determination was from 0.2 to 40 mg/L GGA. The effects of temperature, pH and sodium chloride concentration on the BOD sensing films were studied. BOD values estimated by this optical BOD sensing film correlate well with those determined by the conventional BOD5 method for seawater samples. 相似文献

Removal of organic material from poultry slaughter wastewater as determined by changes in biological oxygen demand (BOD5) was investigated by adding three different types of inoculum combining cow manure, yeast extract or hydraulic residence time as variables with response vector of reduction of BOD5. In a 3-l reactors, a 95% removal of BOD5 from poultry slaughter wastewater was obtained with organic loading rates up to 31 kg BOD5 m(-3) d(-1) without loss of stability. This 95% removal was obtained between 25 and 39 degrees C with a hydraulic residence time between 3.5 and 4.5 h. The growth of the consortium of micro-organisms in the reactor followed a first-order kinetic with a constant specific growth rate of 0.054 h(-1). It was concluded that an inoculum from cow manure added with nutrients and yeast extract allowed a 95% removal of BOD5 from poultry slaughter wastewater at ambient temperatures within a hydraulic residence time of 4 h, sharply reducing possible environmental hazards. 相似文献

Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in some culture media was determined by means of flow-through microbial electrodes, based on Hansenula anomala, Escherichia coli K-12, and activated sludge obtained from the All-Union Scientific-Research Institute of Applied Enzymology (Vilnius). The sensitivity of the electrodes was 112.1, 65.5 and 32.8% O2, respectively, in the presence of 1 mM glucose as substrate. A maximum sensitivity of the electrodes, based on E. coli and activated sludge, was observed on pyruvate oxidation--120 and 82.3% O2 in the presence of 1 mM pyruvate. The yeast electrode exhibited a minimum sensitivity for sucrose--9.3% O2/mM. The time of the electrode response varies from 8 to 35 min, depending on the substrate used. BOD depends on pH of the solution. The microbial electrodes retained the initial sensitivity for 33--38 days. The were used for estimation of BOD in the Rider's and Shopfer's media. 相似文献

The microorganisms Trichosporon cutaneum and Bacillus licheniformis were used to develop a microbial biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor. It was found that T. cutaneum gave a greater response to glucose, whereas B. licheniformis gave a better response to glutamic acid. Hence, co-immobilized T. cutaneum and B. licheniformis were used to construct a glucose and glutamic acid sensor with improved sensitivity and dynamic range. A membrane loading of T. cutaneum at 1.1x10(8 )cells ml(-1) cm(-2) and B. licheniformis at 2.2x10(8) cells ml(-1) cm(-2) gave the optimum result: a linear range up to 40 mg BOD l(-1) with a sensitivity of 5.84 nA mg(-1) BOD l. The optimized BOD sensor showed operation stability for 58 intermittent batch measurements, with a standard deviation of 0.0362 and a variance of 0.131 nA. The response time of the co-immobilized microbial BOD sensor was within 5-10 min by steady-state measurement and the detection limit was 0.5 mg BOD l(-1). The BOD sensor was insensitive to pH in the range of pH 6.8-7.2. 相似文献

A novel yeast cell-based assay was developed for the detection of estrogenic activity in wastewater. Recombinant Arxula adeninivorans strains were engineered to co-express the human estrogen receptor alpha (hERalpha) and a Klebsiella-derived phytase (phyK) reporter gene under the control of an A. adeninivorans-derived glucoamylase (GAA) promoter which had been modified by the insertion of estrogen-responsive elements (EREs). In the presence of estrogenic compounds, hERalpha dimerizes and binds to the estrogen. Reporter gene expression is induced by subsequent binding of the hERalpha-dimer/estrogen complex to estrogen responsive elements (ERE) in the promoter. The insertion of different numbers of EREs in three alternative promoter positions and its effect on reporter gene expression were assessed. In one of the constructs, a detection limit of 5 ng l(-1) and a determination limit of 10 ng l(-1) for 17beta-estradiol-like activity was achieved. The photometric assay used enabled estrogen determination in sewage samples within 30 h. 相似文献

Summary Whole cells of Saccharomyces bayanus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zymomonas mobilis were immobilized by chelation/metal-link processes onto porous inorganic carriers. The immobilized yeast cells displayed much higher sucrose hydrolyzing activities (90–517 U/g) than the bacterial, Z. mobilis, cells (0.76–1.65 U/g). The yeast cells chelated on hydrous metal oxide derivative of pumice stone presented higher initial -d-fructofuranosidase (invertase, EC 3.2.1.26) activity (161–517 U/g) than on other derivatives (90–201 U/g). The introduction of an organic bridge between the cells and the metal activator led to a decrease of the initial activity of the immobilized cells, however S. cerevisiae cells immobilized on the carbonyl derivative of titanium (IV) activated pumice stone, by covalent linkage, displayed a very stable behaviour, which in continuous operation at 30° C show only a slightly decrease on invertase activity for a two month period (half-life=470 days). The continuous hydrolysis of a 2% w/v sucrose solution at 30° C in an immobilized S. cerevisiae packed bed reactor was described by a simple kinetic model developed by the authors (Cabral et al., 1984a), which can also be used to predict the enzyme activity of the immobilized cells from conversion degree data. 相似文献
