A method to determine the spectrophotometric biochemical oxygen demand (BOD(sp)) was studied with high sensitivity and reproducibility by employing 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol (DCIP) as a redox color indicator, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and a temperature-controlling system providing a three-consecutive-stir unit. The absorbance of DCIP decreased due to the metabolism of organic substances in aqueous samples by S. cerevisiae. Under optimum conditions, a calibration curve for glucose glutamic acid concentration between 1.1 and 22mg O(2) L(-1) (r=0.988, six points, n=3) was obtained when the incubation mixture was incubated for 10min at 30 degrees C. The reproducibility of the optical responses in the calibration curve was 1.77% (average of relative standard deviations; RSD(av)). Subsequently, the characterization of this method was studied. The optical responses to pure organic substances and the influence of chloride ions, artificial seawater, and heavy metal ions on the sensor response were investigated before use with real samples. Measurements of real samples using river water were performed and compared with those obtained using the BOD(5) method. Finally, stable responses were obtained for 36 days when the yeast cell suspension was stored at 4 degrees C (response reduction, 89%; RSD(av) value for 9 testing days, 8.4%). 相似文献

A novel design of a biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) biosensor has been developed for on-line monitoring of easily biodegradable organic compounds in aqueous samples. The biological recognition element of the sensor could be easily renewed by injecting new bacterial paste without disassembling the sensor system. The sensor measurements were carried out in the initial-rate mode using a flow injection (FI) system, resulting in 60 s for one sample analysis followed by a recovery time less than 10 min. The sensor performance achieved showed a wide detection linearity over the range of 5-700 mg BOD5.l(-1) and a generally good agreement between the BOD values estimated by the biosensor and the conventional 5-day test. Furthermore, the precision test was in the control range (i.e. repeatability < or = /+/-7.5%/, reproducibility < or = /+/-7.3%/). The sensor could be used over 1 week in continuous test, however, the best performance was found within the first 24 h where standard deviation of the sensor response was +/-2.4%. The design of the sensor allows easy and fast renewal of the cells used as sensing elements. Replacement of biological recognition element and calibration of the sensor responses can be performed in a rather simple procedure on a daily regular basis. By using a mixed culture as the bio-receptor, one gets a sensor that reacts to a wide range of substrates. The new sensor construction will thus allow fast and convenient replacement of the bio-receptor and on-line assay of a broad range of substrates. This makes the sensor being an interesting and promising candidate for on-line monitoring of biological treatment process. 相似文献

To improve the practicability of rapid biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) method, we proposed a stable BOD sensor based on immobilizing multi-species BODseed for wastewater monitoring in the flow system. The activation time of the biofilm was greatly shortened for the biofilm prepared by BODseed in the organic-inorganic hybrid material. Some influence factors such as temperature, pH, and concentration of phosphate buffer solution (PBS) were investigated in detail in which high tolerance to environment was validated for the BOD sensor permitted a wide pH and PBS concentration ranges. The minimum detectable BOD was around 0.5 mg/l BOD under the optimized 1.0 mg/ml BODseed immobilized concentration. The as-prepared BOD sensor exhibited excellent stability and reproducibility for different samples. Furthermore, the as-prepared BOD biosensor displayed a notable advantage in indiscriminate biodegradation to different organic compounds and their mixture, similar to the character of conventional BOD(5) results. The results of the BOD sensor method are well agreed with those obtained from conventional BOD(5) method for wastewater samples. The proposed rapid BOD sensor method should be promising in practical application of wastewater monitoring. 相似文献

Immobilised activated sludge based biosensor for biochemical oxygen demand measurement 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) sensor, based on an immobilised mixed culture of microorganisms in combination with a dissolved oxygen electrode, has been developed for the purpose of on-line monitoring of the biological treatment process for waste and wastewater. The sensor was designed for easy replacement of the biomembrane, thereby making it suitable for short-term use. The drawbacks of activated sludge based sensor, such as short sensor lifetime, were thereby circumvented. The sensor BOD measurements were carried out in the kinetic mode using a flow injection system, resulting in 25 s for one measurement followed by 4–8 min recovery time. Based on the results of normalised sensor responses, the OECD synthetic wastewater was considered to be a more suitable calibration solution in comparison with the GGA solution. Good agreement was achieved between the results of the sensor BOD measurement and those obtained from BOD5 analysis of a wastewater sample from a food-processing factory. Reproducibility of responses using one sensor was below ±5.6% standard deviation. Reproducibility of responses using different sensors was within acceptable bias limits, viz. ±15% standard deviation. 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

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 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

A microbial biosensor based on the yeast Arxula adeninivorans LS3 has been developed for measurement of biodegradable substances. Arxula is immobilized in the hydrogel poly(carbamoyl) sulfonate (PCS). The immobilized yeast membrane is placed in front of an oxygen electrode with -600 mV versus Ag/AgCl. Arxula is salt tolerant; it can give a stable signal up to 2.5 M NaCl in sample (120 mM in measuring cell). The sensor's measurements are highly correlated to BOD5 measurements. It has a very high stability which can last for 40 day without any decrease in signal. The linear range of the sensor is up to a corresponding BOD value of 550 mg/l. 相似文献

A package-free transparent disposable biosensor chip was developed by a screen-printing technique. The biosensor chip was fabricated by stacking a substrate with two carbon electrodes on its surface, a spacer consisting of a resist layer and an adhesive layer, and a cover. The structure of the chip keeps the interior of the reaction-detecting section airtight until use. The chip is equipped with double electrochemical measuring elements for the simultaneous measurement of multiple items, and the reagent layer was developed in sample-feeding path. The sample-inlet port and air-discharge port are simultaneously opened by longitudinally folding in two biosensor units with a notch as a boundary. Then the shape of the chip is changed to a V-shape. The reaction-detecting section of the chip has a 1.0 microl sample volume for one biosensor unit. Excellent results were obtained with the chip in initial simultaneous chronoamperometric measurements of both glucose (r=1.00) and lactate (r=0.998) in the same samples. The stability of the enzyme sensor signals of the chip was estimated at ambient atmosphere on 8 testing days during a 6-month period. The results were compared with those obtained for an unpackaged chip used as a control. The package-free chip proved to be twice as good as the control chip in terms of the reproducibility of slopes from 16 calibration curves (one calibration curve: 0, 100, 300, 500 mg dl(-1) glucose; n=3) and 4.6 times better in terms of the reproducibility of correlation coefficients from the 16 calibration curves. 相似文献

The application of a quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase modified thick-film sensor as label detector in a capillary immunoassay (CIA) for xenoestrogens is presented. The detection of the alkylphenols and their ethoxylates is based on the competition between the analyte and tracer molecules for the binding sites of anti-alkylphenol ethoxylate antibodies. This assay is performed off-line in small disposable PVC capillaries coated with immobilized antibodies. This format allows the combination of the assay with a small portable device potentially useful for on-site environmental monitoring. Beside high amplification the utilization of beta-galactosidase as enzyme label allows the direct combination with a GDH biosensor at optimal pH conditions. The bioelectrocatalytic properties of this biosensor offer an additional amplification and thus allow a very sensitive quantification of 4-aminophenol, generated by the beta-galactosidase. Detection limits of the analytes in the microg/l range were obtained, while other phenolics and surfactants showed no or very little cross reactivity. 相似文献

An optical microbial biosensor was described for the detection of methyl parathion pesticide. Whole cells of Flavobacterium sp. were immobilized by trapping in glass fiber filter and were used as biocomponent along with optic fiber system. Flavobacterium sp. has the organophosphorus hydrolase enzyme, which hydrolyzes the methyl parathion into detectable product p-nitrophenol. The immobilized microbial biocomponent was disposable, cost-effective and showed high reproducibility and uniformity. The detection of methyl parathion by the use of disposable microbial biocomponent with optical biosensor was simple, single step and direct measurement of very low quantity of the sample. The home made reaction vessel was small and needed only 75 microl of sample. A lower detection limit 0.3 microM methyl parathion was estimated from the linear range (4-80 microM) of calibration plot of organophosphorus hydrolase enzymatic assay. The applicability to synthetic methyl parathion spiked samples was demonstrated. 相似文献

We investigated the influence of root border cells on the colonisation of seedling Zea mays roots by Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 in sandy loam soil packed at two dry bulk densities. Numbers of colony forming units (CFU) were counted on sequential sections of root for intact and decapped inoculated roots grown in loose (1.0 mg m(-3)) and compacted (1.3 mg m(-3)) soil. After two days of root growth, the numbers of P. fluorescens (CFU cm(-1)) were highest on the section of root just below the seed with progressively fewer bacteria near the tip, irrespective of density. The decapped roots had significantly more colonies of P. fluorescens at the tip compared with the intact roots: approximately 100-fold more in the loose and 30-fold more in the compact soil. In addition, confocal images of the root tips grown in agar showed that P. fluorescens could only be detected on the tips of the decapped roots. These results indicated that border cells, and their associated mucilage, prevented complete colonization of the root tip by the biocontrol agent P. fluorescens, possibly by acting as a disposable surface or sheath around the cap. 相似文献

A new disposable amperometric bi-enzyme sensor system for detecting phenols has been developed. The phenol sensor developed uses horseradish peroxidase modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (HRP-SPCEs) coupled with immobilized tyrosinase prepared using poly(carbamoylsulfonate) (PCS) hydrogels or a poly(vinyl alcohol) bearing styrylpyridinium groups (PVA-SbQ) matrix. Optimization of the experimental parameters has been performed with regard to buffer composition, pH, operating potential and storage stability. A co-operative reaction involving tyrosinase and HRP occurs at a potential of -50 mV versus Ag/AgCl without the requirement for addition of extraneous H(2)O(2), thus, resulting in a very simple and efficient system. Comparison of the electrode responses with the 4-aminoantipyrine standard method for phenol sample analysis indicated the feasibility of the disposable sensor system for sensitive "in-field" determination of phenols. The most sensitive system was the tyrosinase immobilized HRP-SPCE using PCS, which displayed detection limits for phenolic compounds in the lower nanomolar range e.g. 2.5 nM phenol, 10 nM catechol and 5 nM p-cresol. 相似文献

A rapid one-step flow/stop-flow injection amperometric immunoassay for alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) using a novel home-produced electrochemical sensor was proposed. The sensor was prepared using layer-by-layer adsorption of positively charged poly(allylamine) (PAA) and negatively charged hydroxymethyl ferrocene on a screen-printed electrode (SPE). The electrochemistry of the immobilized ferrocene moieties showed a surface-controlled electrode process. Based on an electrochemical enzyme-linked immunoassay with the immobilized ferrocene moieties as an electron transfer mediator between the electrode and the horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled anti-AFP antibody, a calibration curve with two linear ranges from 5 to 20 and 20 to 150 ng ml-1 and a detection limit of 2 ng ml-1 for AFP determination was obtained under the optimized conditions of 0.891 ml min-1 flow rate, 20 microl injection volume and +25 mV applied potential. The sensor showed good repeatability and reproducibility and retained more than 95% of its original signal after 15 days of storage. The proposed method eliminated the need for washing and addition of any substrate or mediator. The complete assay could be handled in less than 25 min with a one-step injection of a 40 microl sample solution. The proposed method would be valuable for the diagnosis and monitoring of carcinoma and its metastasis. 相似文献

Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) is a measure of the amount of dissolved oxygen that is required for the biochemical oxidation
of the organic compounds in 5 days. New biosensor-based methods have been conducted for a faster determination of BOD. In
this study, a mathematical model to evaluate the feasibility of using a BOD sensor, based on disposable alginate-entrapped
bacteria, for monitoring BOD in situ was applied. The model considers the influences of alginate bead size and bacterial concentration.
The disposable biosensor can be adapted according to specific requirements depending on the organic load contained in the
wastewater. Using Klein and Washausen parameter in a Lineweaver–Burk plot, the glucose diffusivity was calculated in 6.4 × 10−10 (m2/s) for beads of 1 mm in diameter and slight diffusion restrictions were observed (n = 0.85). Experimental results showed a correlation (p < 0.05) between the respirometric peak and the standard BOD test. The biosensor response was representative of BOD. 相似文献

In order to obtain direct information of stimulus dynamics perceived by a male moth under field conditions a portable device
was constructed which enables continuous recording of responses from individual pheromone receptors. The device is suitable
for tip recording by means of micro-knives as well as for recording with tungsten electrodes making it applicable for a wide
range of insects. A micro thermistor air velocity sensor is placed within 2 mm from the preparation to record the momentary
air flow. The signal conditioning electronic circuits are battery powered, and the signals can be stored on a portable tape
recorder. Field recordings were made from individual male antennal pheromone receptors ofAegeria myopaeformis andAdoxophyes orana. In all recordings the instantaneous firing frequency of the receptor cells was strongly modulated by the air velocity. Analysis
of the data may provide information about the average pheromone concentration and the fine structure of pheromone plumes under
various conditions. 相似文献

A bench scale reactor using a sequencing batch reactor process was used to evaluate the applicability of biosensors for the process optimization of biological carbon and nitrogen removal. A commercial biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) biosensor with a novel microbial membrane was used to determine the duration of each phase by measuring samples in real time in an SBR cycle with filling/anoxic-anaerobic/aerobic/sludge wasting/settling/withdrawal periods. Possible strategies to increase the efficiency for the biological removal of carbon and nitrogen from synthetic wastewater have been developed. The results show that application of a BOD biosensor enables estimation of organic carbon, in real time, allowing the optimization or reduction the SBR cycle time. Some typical consumption patterns for organic carbon in the non-aeration phase of a typical SBR operation were identified. The rate of decrease of BOD measured using a sensor BOD, was the highest in the initial glucose breakdown period and during denitrification. It then slowed down until a 'quiescent period' was observed, which may be considered as the commencement of the aeration period. Monitoring the BOD curve with a BOD biosensor allowed the reduction of the SBR cycle time, which leads to an increase in the removal efficiency. By reducing the cycle time from 8 to 4 h cycle, the removal efficiencies of nitrate, glucose, and phosphorus in a given time interval, were increased to nearly double, while the removal of nitrogen ammonium was increased by one-third. 相似文献

This study describes the development of amperometric sensors based on poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and lutetium bisphthalocyanine (LuPc(2)) films assembled using the Layer-by-Layer (LbL) technique. The films have been used as modified electrodes for catechol quantification. Electrochemical measurements have been employed to investigate the catalytic properties of the LuPc(2) immobilized in the LbL films. By chronoamperometry, the sensors present excellent sensitivity (20 nA μM(-1)) in a wide linear range (R(2)=0.994) up to 900 μM and limit of detection (s/n=3) of 37.5 × 10(-8)M for catechol. The sensors have good reproducibility and can be used at least for ten times. The work potential is +0.3 V vs. saturated calomel electrode (SCE). In voltammetry measurements, the calibration curve shows a good linearity (R(2)=0.992) in the range of catechol up to 500 μM with a sensitivity of 90 nA μM(-1) and LD of 8 μM. 相似文献
