煤矿污染土壤降解苯并(a)芘微生物多样性及降解能力研究

以苯并(a)芘(50 mg/L)为唯一碳源,对新疆芦草沟煤矿开采区土壤微生物进行3代胁迫培养(每代60 d);采用PCR-DGGE方法了解不同污染程度土样中降解苯并(a)芘的微生物类群和多样性特点;利用高效液相色谱(HPLC)测定胁迫培养每代培养物混合菌群对苯并(a)芘的降解能力。PCR-DGGE结果显示:不同污染程度原始样品与苯并(a)芘胁迫培养第3代培养物的微生物香浓指数(H)、丰度(S)和均匀度(E)有所不同,其中重度污染培养物降解苯并(a)芘的微生物类群最丰富。对优势条带进行克隆,其主要归属于变形菌门(Proteobacteria)、拟杆菌门(Bacteroidetes)和放线菌门(Actinobacteria)。经HPLC检测发现重度污染样品中的群体微生物对苯并(a)芘的降解率明显高于轻度和中度污染样品,达到78.4%。研究表明新疆芦草沟煤矿开采区污染的土壤中可能蕴藏着降解苯并(a)芘的微生物资源。     

固定化微生物对多环芳烃污染土壤的降解

利用微生物固定化技术,研究了微生物固定化菌剂对土壤中菲、蒽、芘、(艹屈)和苯并(a)芘的降解动态,并且采用Michaelis-Menton和Monod动力学模型对结果进行拟合.结果显示,4种处理(TB02、TB07、TBB03、TBB08)均有降解菲、蒽、芘、(艹屈)和苯并(a)芘的能力.其中,处理TB02的降解能力强、降解速率快、半衰期短且处理成本低,而处理TB07则需要较长时间作用于PAHs污染土壤,其降解能力才能充分发挥出来.当菲、蒽、芘、(艹屈)和苯并(a)芘的初始浓度均为20 mg·kg-1时,42 d后,TB02对菲、蒽、芘、(艹屈)和苯并(a)芘的降解率分别为84.32%、85.24%、82.59%、43.75%和62.25%; 133 d后,TB07对5种污染物的降解率分别为95.00%、95.24%、90.93%、74.82%和72.20%.通过比较5种污染物半衰期,其可降解性由大到小依次为菲、蒽、芘、苯并(a)芘、(艹屈).

从本溪多环芳烃(PAHs)污染土壤中经富集培养筛选出8株PAHs降解菌,研究了8株菌及其等比例混合培养对菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的降解能力。结果表明,在28℃,培养基中菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的浓度分别为50、50和5mg·L-1的复合底物条件下,培养28d后,菌株B3的降解效果最好,对菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的降解率分别为88.4%、54.0%和68.4%,8株菌的混合培养对菲、芘和苯并[a]芘的降解率分别为87.7%、35.3%和42.0%;经生理生化实验和16SrRNA序列比对,初步鉴定B3菌为假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas sp.)。     

麦冬和青绿薹草对土壤苯并[a]芘的去除率及叶片生理响应特征北大核心CSCD

为了明确北京园林绿地地被植物麦冬和青绿薹草对土壤苯并[a]芘的净化能力,以普通园土为对照,设置5.5、15和30 mg/kg等3个土壤苯并[a]芘污染浓度,通过盆栽试验研究两种植物对苯并[a]芘的耐受性、去除效果及叶片中光合色素和氧化应激等生理响应特征。结果表明:(1)两种植物在30 mg/kg及以下的土壤苯并[a]芘浓度中均可生存且具有观赏价值,但青绿薹草株高及干重均受到显著抑制,而麦冬仅株高受到显著抑制。(2)两种植物均可以显著降低土壤苯并[a]芘浓度,且去除率随浓度升高呈先升高后降低的趋势;麦冬在5.5 mg/kg时去除率最高(76.9%),青绿薹草在15 mg/kg时去除率最高(79.6%)。(3)随土壤苯并[a]芘浓度升高,麦冬叶片各类光合色素含量均先降低后升高,而青绿薹草则先升高后降低,但仅在个别处理下变化显著。(4)各苯并[a]芘浓度处理下麦冬叶片中MDA含量均与对照组无显著差异,而各处理下青绿薹草均显著高于对照组。(5)各苯并[a]芘浓度处理下麦冬、青绿薹草叶片中过氧化氢和羟自由基含量基本上均高于对照组,其中麦冬在15和30 mg/kg浓度处理下过氧化氢含量以及15 mg/kg浓度处理下羟自由基含量增幅显著,青绿薹草在15 mg/kg浓度处理下过氧化氢含量以及各浓度处理下的羟自由基含量均显著高于对照组。(6)在各土壤苯并[a]芘浓度下,两种植物叶片POD和CAT活性均与对照组无显著差异,SOD活性仅在麦冬5.5 mg/kg浓度处理下和青绿薹草30 mg/kg浓度处理下显著高于对照组。研究发现,麦冬和青绿薹草均可耐受苯并[a]芘污染浓度低于30 mg/kg的土壤环境,同时有效去除土壤中的苯并[a]芘;麦冬的去除效果在土壤苯并[a]芘浓度较低时优于青绿薹草,而在高浓度时逊于青绿薹草;麦冬对苯并[a]芘土壤污染的较强耐受性与其在各污染浓度下叶片光合色素含量较稳定、膜质过氧化程度较低等密切相关。     

利用[~(14)C]—B(a)P 研究微生物对水稻植株吸收苯并(a)芘的影响

众所周知,苯并(a)芘(BaP)是一种强致癌性多环芳烃,它的生成是多源的,且在环境中有广泛分布。近年来,国内外对苯并(a)芘污染环境及其生物氧化已有越来越多的报导。对它进入植物体及在植物体内进行再分配

为揭示根际效应对多环芳烃降解的影响机制,建立恰当的植物-微生物联合修复模式,本研究向含有微生物及多环芳烃(芘和苯并\[a\]芘)的微宇宙中加入三叶草根系分泌物,分析其对多环芳烃降解的影响,研究降解过程中微生物加氧酶和16S rDNA基因拷贝数的变化,并对具有多环芳烃降解能力的微生物进行鉴定.结果表明： 分枝杆菌M1具有降解多环芳烃的能力;三叶草根系分泌物总有机碳(TOC)浓度为35.5 mg·L^-1时,芘和苯并\[a\]芘降解率明显提高,分枝杆菌加氧酶基因所占比例增加,表明其促进了分枝杆菌对芘和苯并\[a\]芘的降解;在降解过程中,加氧酶基因拷贝数明显增加,而16S rDNA数量增加不明显,表明前者与多环芳烃降解过程有关,而后者和微生物数量有关.三叶草根系分泌物使分枝杆菌加氧酶基因拷贝数明显增加,从而促进了分枝杆菌对多环芳烃的降解.
     

The formation and occurrence of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons associated with food

Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons are common contaminants of processed food, usually at trace levels. These hydrocarbons are products of combustion and pyrolysis, and are present in petroleum and coal, and in products derived from them. Most polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons are not carcinogenic, but some of them are, and a few are potent inducers of skin and lung tumors in mice. Their carcinogenic properties have not been fully explored, but they seem to be less potent by ingestion or inhalation, and they are known as a group to produce cancer in humans. The most effective carcinogens among them are those with 5 or 6 fused rings, and these tend to be less prevalent in mixtures than the 3- and 4-ring hydrocarbons, most of which are not carcinogenic. Sophisticated analytical methods, using solvent extraction and chromatography have been developed to detect and measure polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons at levels of 1 in 10(9) (1 part per billion) or less, and these have been applied to the measurement of individual compounds in foods, as well as in products of combustion and pyrolysis. Wood smoke and smoked foods contain the carcinogenic benzo[a]pyrene at levels of 1 ppb, and other hydrocarbons; liquid smoke has lower levels. Crude vegetable oils have higher concentrations, but purified 'deodorized' oils have benzo[a]pyrene levels near 1 ppb. Sausages cooked over burning logs had as much as 200 ppb benzo[a]pyrene. Charcoal-broiled steaks and ground meat had benzo[a]pyrene concentrations up to 50 micrograms/kg, while less fatty pork and chicken had lower concentrations (up to 10 micrograms/kg). It was probable that the rendered fat dripped on to the hot charcoal and pyrolyzed to form quantities of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, which rose with the smoke to deposit on the meat. Therefore, oven cooking or cooking with a heat source above the meat, or segregation of the meat from the smoke resulted in food containing negligible amounts of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons. Modifications of cookings practices accordingly would greatly reduce exposure to this group of carcinogens.     

乳杆菌在模拟肉制品条件下结合苯并芘的效果

【背景】乳杆菌对众多致癌物具有吸附作用,但关于乳杆菌结合吸附苯并芘特性的研究并不多。【目的】探讨戊糖乳杆菌(Lactobacillus pentosus) ML32和植物乳杆菌(Lactobacillus plantarum)121对加工肉制品中苯并芘的吸附能力与吸附机制。【方法】基于HPLC检测菌体对不同模拟加工处理方式肉品中的苯并芘的吸附率。【结果】植物乳杆菌121和戊糖乳杆菌ML32对模拟油炸、烟熏或烧烤方式处理肉中苯并芘的吸附率均在30%以上。菌株121对直接烟熏肉中的苯并芘吸附率为41.21%,直接油炸肉中吸附率为38.71%,直接烧烤肉中吸附率为37.51%;菌株ML32对间接烟熏肉中的苯并芘吸附率为40.02%,间接烧烤肉中吸附率为38.01%。植物乳杆菌121适合于去除高温长时间加工肉中的苯并芘,戊糖乳杆菌ML32则相反。另外,乳杆菌细胞壁中的肽聚糖或许在吸附过程中发挥了主要作用。【结论】两株乳杆菌121和ML32具有吸附某些加工肉制品中苯并芘的效果,或许可以作为一种方法用于消除某些肉制品中因苯并芘过量带来的风险。     

Mutagenicity of smoked, dried bonito products

Mutagens have been found in smoked, dried bonito products, popular items in Japanese foods. The mutagens were isolated by means of blue cotton, an absorbent cotton preparation with covalently bound trisulfo-copper-phthalocyanine residues, and by means of XAD-2 resin. The mutagenicity was positive in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA98 with metabolic activation. The mutagens are produced during the process of smoking-and-drying bonito (a process called baikan). The activity was much higher than that expected from the content of benzo[a]pyrene. In contrast to benzo[a]pyrene, the mutagens were not inhibited by ellagic acid. The mutagenicity was not abolished by treatment with nitrite. Thin-layer and high-performance liquid chromatographic analysis gave two mutagenic fractions, both of which were distinguishable from benzo[a]pyrene and from the pyrolysis products Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2, Glu-P-1, Glu-P-2, A alpha C and MeA alpha C. The major mutagenic component was not chromatographically distinguishable from IQ and MeIQx, and the minor one was very similar to MeIQ. The smoked, dried bonito products contained free fatty acids, which were inhibitory to the mutagenicity of the bonito products.     

Biodegradation of benzo(a)pyrene by a newly isolated Fusarium sp

Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) is a five-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon produced by the incomplete combustion of organic materials. It is one of the priority pollutants listed by the US Environmental Protection Agency. This study describes a fungal isolate that is able to biodegrade benzo(a)pyrene. The filamentous fungus, isolated from leaves of Pterocarpus macrocarpus Kurz., was identified as a Fusarium sp. (strain E033). Fusarium sp. E033 was able to survive in the presence of benzo(a)pyrene concentrations up to 1.2 mM (300 mg L(-1)). Biodegradation experiments using 0.4 mM (100 mg L(-1)) benzo(a)pyrene demonstrated that Fusarium sp. E033 was able to degrade 65-70% of the initial benzo(a)pyrene provided, and two transformation products, a dihydroxy dihydro-benzo(a)pyrene and a benzo(a)pyrene-quinone, were detected within 30 days of incubation at 32 degrees C. The factors affecting biodegradation efficiency were also investigated. While increasing aeration promoted better fungal growth and benzo(a)pyrene biodegradation, increasing the glucose concentration from 5 to 50 mM had an adverse effect on biodegradation. Ethanol and methanol, provided at 5 mM to increase benzo(a)pyrene water solubility, increased the fungal biomass yield but did not promote degradation. The Fusarium sp. E033 isolated in this study can tolerate and degrade relatively high concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene, suggesting its potential application in benzo(a)pyrene bioremediation.     

Effects of harman and norharman on the mutagenicity and binding to DNA of benzo[a]pyrene metabolites in vitro and on aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase induction in cell culture

Harman and norharman, two β-carboline derivatives known to exist in certain foods and to be formed during pyrolysis of tobacco and meat, were tested for mutagenic activity in the presence of benzo[a]pyrene, mouse liver enzymes, and Salmonella typhimurium TA98 in vitro. Both harman and norharman inhibit benzo[a]pyrene mutagenicity, benzo[a]pyrene metabolism (as measured by aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity), and the binding of all benzo[a]pyrene metabolites to DNA in vitro. Moreover, harman and norharman are quite toxic to cultures of hepatoma-derived H-4-II-E and Hepa-1 established cell lines and therefore were found to be very weak inducers of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity.     

Degradation of benzo[a]pyrene by Mycobacterium vanbaalenii PYR-1

Metabolism of the environmental pollutant benzo[a]pyrene in the bacterium Mycobacterium vanbaalenii PYR-1 was examined. This organism initially oxidized benzo[a]pyrene with dioxygenases and monooxygenases at C-4,5, C-9,10, and C-11,12. The metabolites were separated by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and characterized by UV-visible, mass, nuclear magnetic resonance, and circular dichroism spectral analyses. The major intermediates of benzo[a]pyrene metabolism that had accumulated in the culture media after 96 h of incubation were cis-4,5-dihydro-4,5-dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene (benzo[a]pyrene cis-4,5-dihydrodiol), cis-11,12-dihydro-11,12-dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene (benzo[a]pyrene cis-11,12-dihydrodiol), trans-11,12-dihydro-11,12-dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene (benzo[a]pyrene trans-11,12-dihydrodiol), 10-oxabenzo[def]chrysen-9-one, and hydroxymethoxy and dimethoxy derivatives of benzo[a]pyrene. The ortho-ring fission products 4-formylchrysene-5-carboxylic acid and 4,5-chrysene-dicarboxylic acid and a monocarboxylated chrysene product were formed when replacement culture experiments were conducted with benzo[a]pyrene cis-4,5-dihydrodiol. Chiral stationary-phase HPLC analysis of the dihydrodiols indicated that benzo[a]pyrene cis-4,5-dihydrodiol had 30% 4S,5R and 70% 4R,5S absolute stereochemistry. Benzo[a]pyrene cis-11,12-dihydrodiol adopted an 11S,12R conformation with 100% optical purity. The enantiomeric composition of benzo[a]pyrene trans-11,12-dihydrodiol was an equal mixture of 11S,12S and 11R,12R molecules. The results of this study, in conjunction with those of previously reported studies, extend the pathways proposed for the bacterial metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene. Our study also provides evidence of the stereo- and regioselectivity of the oxygenases that catalyze the metabolism of benzo[a]pyrene in M. vanbaalenii PYR-1.     

Detection of benzo(a)pyrene photodegradation products using DNA electrochemical sensors

The reactivity of photodegradation products of benzo(a)pyrene vs. DNA has been assessed using both genomic and oligonucleotide based DNA electrochemical sensors. The kinetic of a photooxidation reaction of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) carried out in controlled conditions using a 6 W UV lamp peaked at 365 nm has been studied using LC with fluorimetric detection. Degradation of benzo(a)pyrene by both UV and UV/H(2)O(2) exhibited pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics with half-lives ranging from 3.0 to 9.8h depending on the pH and on the amount of H(2)O(2). The oxidation products of benzo(a)pyrene obtained in different conditions were tested on genomic ssDNA electrochemical sensors obtained via immobilisation of salmon testis ss-DNA on graphite screen-printed electrodes. Guanines oxidation signals obtained using chronopotentiometry were used to detect the interaction of the products with DNA. The dose-response curve obtained with benzo(a)pyrene incubated 24 h at pH 4.7 was different from that of the parent compound indicating a different type of interaction with DNA. A DNA hybridisation sensor was also assembled using a thiolated/biotynilated 24-mer oligonucleotide immobilised on a gold screen-printed electrode and avidin-alkaline phosphatase conjugate. A voltammetric detection of naphtol was used to detect the hybridisation reaction. A net inhibition of the hybridisation reaction was observed after incubation with benzo(a)pyrene oxidation products that was attributed to the formation of stable adducts with the guanines of the biotinylated strand. LC-MS-MS studies of the oxidation products confirmed the presence of chemical species potentially forming adducts with DNA. The data reported demonstrate that DNA electrochemical sensors have the potential to be used to monitor remediation processes and to assess the potential toxicity vs. DNA of chemicals forming stable DNA adducts.     

Oxidation of benzo[a]pyrene by the filamentous fungus Cunninghamella elegans.

Cunninghamella elegans oxidized benzo[a]pyrene to several metabolic products. Compounds that were isolated and identified were: trans-9,10-dihydroxy-9,10-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene, trans-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene, benzo[a]pyrene 1,6-quinone, benzo[a]pyrene 3,6-quinone, 9-hydroxybenz[a]pyrene, and 3-hydroxybenzo[a]pyrene. In addition, an unidentified dihydroxybenzo[a]pyrene metabolite was also formed. Experiments with [14C]benzo[a]pyrene showed that over a 96-h period, 18.4% of the hydrocarbon was converted to metabolic products. Most of the metabolites were sulfate conjugates as demonstrated by the formation of benzo[a]pyrene quinones and phenols after treatment with aryl sulfatase. Glucuronide and sulfate conjugates were also detected as water-soluble metabolites. The results show that benzo[a]pyrene is metabolized by a filamentous fungus in a manner that is remarkably similar to that observed in higher organisms.     

Genotoxic effects in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Tradescantia</Emphasis> plant (clone 2) induced by benzo(a)pyrene

This work surveys the genetic toxicity of benzo(a)pyrene added to soil for Tradescantia plants (clone 02). Different adaptation levels of Tradescantia (clone 02) to soil pollution with benzo(a)pyrene have been estimated. Plant adaptation was not observed at the morphological level, but found for the physiological and genetic (with every adaptation stage) levels. The products of benzo(a)pyrene metabolism act as auxin on plants influencing the growth of root biomass and the cell size.     

Association of 1 hydroxypyrene glucuronide in human urine with cigarette smoking and broiled or roasted meat consumption

Humans are exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons PAHs from various occupational, dietary, environmental and medicinal sources. We measured 1 hydroxypyrene glucuronide 1 OHP gluc concentration in urines from male non smokers n = 50, smokers of blond tobacco n = 31, smokers of black tobacco n = 16, and pipe smokers n = 3 . Immunoaffinity chromatography was used as a preparative step and synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy as the quantitation method. The concentration of 1 OHP gluc in urine from smokers mean SE: 1.04 0.13 pmol ml-1 urine was significantly higher than in urine from non smokers 0.55 0.05 pmol ml-1 urine by the Wilcoxon rank sum test non smokers versus all smokers, p = 0.001; vs black tobacco smokers, p = 0.001; vs blond tobacco smokers, p = 0.007 . Urinary 1 OHP gluc concentration among subjects who had consumed roasted, grilled or broiled meat within the past 24 h was elevated compared with those who had not p = 0.025 . Multiple linear regression showed significant associations of urinary 1 OHP gluc with number of cigarettes smoked p = 0.002 and consumption of roasted, grilled or broiled meat p = 0.028 . Systemic CYP1A2 activity estimated by caffeine metabolism was significantly correlated with urinary 1 OHP gluc concentration. However, this association was probably due to cigarette smoking, since adjusting for cigarette smoking by multiple linear regression made the association between urinary 1 OHP gluc and CYP1A2 phenotype non significant. These results further support the use of urinary 1 OHP gluc as a biomarker of recent pyrene exposure through inhalation or diet.
