为科学治理工业领域中微生物对杀菌剂的抗药性,从工业产品、原料及水样中采集腐败微生物,细菌按照《常见细菌系统鉴定手册》、API鉴定系统及16SrDNA序列分析,真菌按《真菌鉴定手册》及18SrDNA序列分析分别进行鉴定;通过测定杀菌剂的最小抑制浓度(MIC)来评估微生物抗药性水平。结果显示,腐败微生物中革兰氏阴性细菌约占46.91%,主要包括假单胞菌属、肠杆菌属、气单胞菌属、克雷伯氏菌属等;革兰氏阳性菌约占32.71%,主要种属为芽孢杆菌属、微杆菌属、李斯特氏菌属及球菌等;真菌约占12%,主要包括青霉属、木霉属和曲霉属。MIC测试结果显示,主要抗药性微生物为假单胞菌属,约占33.78%,平均抗性水平达到36mg/L,且传代不稳定。结论认为,工业上微生物污染主要由细菌耐药性引起,细胞膜结构及细菌生物膜的形成在该类杀菌剂抗药性产生的过程中起重要作用。     

水性涂料腐败微生物的细菌群落及耐药性分析

为设计更合理的防腐方案,首先通过菌落总数检测方法检测统计某涂料生产企业三年来的产品及原材料送样的微生物情况,了解变质产品微生物污染状况;通过高通量测序技术分析典型变质样微生物的群落组成和丰度;使用高效液相色谱法分析产品的防腐剂残留情况;再采用最低抑菌浓度实验检测变质菌的耐药性,最后通过防腐功效测试检测环境风险菌对正常生产样的威胁。该企业三年送样总量682个,有菌样87个,其中三年的染菌率分别为11. 71%、12. 7%和13. 28%,腐败变质产品微生物菌落总数数量级已达到10~6CFU/g以上,以变形菌、厚壁菌和拟杆菌为优势菌群,其他细菌为非优势菌群。变质样防腐剂已被降解,分离的变质菌对卡松类防腐剂产生较明显耐药性,对BIT,布罗波尔类防腐剂没有产生耐药性,正常生产的样品能通过防腐功效测试。对于变质菌的耐药性应采用复防腐配体系如BIT、BP类等更有效的防腐剂。至于对卡松类防腐剂产生耐药性的部分变质菌,应筛选更有效的防腐体系。此外要加强原材料和生产环境和工艺流程的清洁控制,以抵御环境污染风险。

为了解斑头雁(Anser indicus)粪便中携带细菌多样性及其耐药情况,对青海湖斑头雁粪便细菌进行分离培养、生化鉴定、16S r RNA基因PCR扩增和序列分析,并进行细菌耐药性试验。结果显示:从30份斑头雁粪便中共分离到123株细菌,可分为10类细菌,分别从每类细菌中挑出一株代表性菌株进行鉴定,鉴定结果显示这10株细菌分别为大肠埃希菌(Escherichia coli)、水生拉恩氏菌(Rahnella aquatilis)、蒙氏肠球菌(Enterococcus mundtii)、枯草芽孢杆菌(Bacillus sublitis)、柠檬节杆菌(Arthrobacter citreus)、腐败希瓦氏菌(Shewanella pulrefaciens)、河生肠杆菌(Enterobacter amnigenus)、成团泛菌(Pantoea agglomerans)、杀鲑气单胞菌(Aeromonas salmonicida)和产酸克雷伯菌(Klebsiella oxytoca)。选取氨苄西林、哌拉西林、阿莫西林/克拉维酸、头孢唑林、头孢他啶、氨曲南、庆大霉素、卡那霉素、阿米卡星、四环素、氯霉素、环丙沙星、诺氟沙星药敏纸片,对分离菌株进行耐药性分析,发现水生拉恩菌、杀鲑气单胞菌和成团泛菌表现为多重耐药性;其他细菌对氨苄西林和四环素有一定的耐药性,对其余受试药物都有不同程度的敏感性。野鸟携带耐药性的条件致病菌,可能会对野生动物健康造成威胁,本研究对斑头雁粪便中携带的条件致病菌及其耐药性进行探究,以期为野鸟携带细菌的耐药机制提供研究理论依据,同时也对野生动物疫病的监测与防控有重要意义。     

象山港网箱养殖区水体和沉积物的细菌生态分布

2006年1月和10月对象山港网箱养殖区细菌数量分布及群落结构进行研究,并与周边非养殖海域进行了比较。结果显示水体和沉积物细菌数量均呈现10月份1月份、网箱养殖区网箱外侧对照区近湾顶对照区近湾口对照区的分布特点,其中网箱养殖区水体异养细菌、弧菌数量分别在1.0×106—7.2×107CFU/L和1.6×105—1.3×106CFU/L之间,沉积物异养细菌、弧菌数量分别在5.9×102—6.1×105CFU/g和8.0×101—7.4×104CFU/g之间。网箱养殖区水体分离细菌89株,归属于12个属,其中不动杆菌属(Acinetobacter)、假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas)、弧菌属(Vibrio)等为优势菌属;沉积物分离细菌136株,归属于10个属,其中假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas)、弧菌属(Vibrio)、芽孢杆菌属(Bacillus)、不动杆菌属(Acinetobacter)等为优势菌属。由于长期受到高营养盐、高有机质等外界条件的选择作用,网箱区及网箱外侧对照区海域的细菌群落多样性较低,某些特定的细菌类群富集。研究表明网箱养殖区的细菌分布和菌属组成特征与养殖自身污染密切相关,并且养殖过程对细菌群落产生的影响已扩展至网箱外侧的邻近海域。     

滩涂贝类养殖环境的细菌分布

Multidrug resistance in hydrocarbon-tolerant Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria

New Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria were isolated from Poeni oily sludge, using enrichment procedures. The six Gram-positive strains belong to Bacillus, Lysinibacillus and Rhodococcus genera. The eight Gram-negative strains belong to Shewanella, Aeromonas, Pseudomonas and Klebsiella genera. Isolated bacterial strains were tolerant to saturated (i.e., n-hexane, n-heptane, n-decane, n-pentadecane, n-hexadecane, cyclohexane), monoaromatic (i.e., benzene, toluene, styrene, xylene isomers, ethylbenzene, propylbenzene) and polyaromatic (i.e., naphthalene, 2-methylnaphthalene, fluorene) hydrocarbons, and also resistant to different antimicrobial agents (i.e., ampicillin, kanamycin, rhodamine 6G, crystal violet, malachite green, sodium dodecyl sulfate). The presence of hydrophilic antibiotics like ampicillin or kanamycin in liquid LB-Mg medium has no effects on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria resistance to toxic compounds. The results indicated that Gram-negative bacteria are less sensitive to toxic compounds than Gram-positive bacteria, except one bacteria belonging to Lysinibacillus genus. There were observed cellular and molecular modifications induced by ampicillin or kanamycin to isolated bacterial strains. Gram-negative bacteria possessed between two and four catabolic genes (alkB, alkM, alkB/alkB1, todC1, xylM, PAH dioxygenase, catechol 2,3-dioxygenase), compared with Gram-positive bacteria (except one bacteria belonging to Bacillus genus) which possessed one catabolic gene (alkB/alkB1). Transporter genes (HAE1, acrAB) were detected only in Gram-negative bacteria.     

Numerical taxonomy of heavy metal-tolerant nonhalophilic bacteria isolated from hypersaline environments.

A total of 232 metal-tolerant bacterial strains were isolated from water and sediment samples collected in different hypersaline environments located in Cádiz, Huelva and Morón de la Frontera (Spain). They were isolated on a medium containing mercury, chromium, cadmium, copper or zinc. These halotolerant isolates were analyzed by numerical taxonomy techniques by using the simple matching (SSM) and Jaccard (SJ) coefficients; clustering was achieved using the unweighted pair group method with averages (UPGMA) algorithm. At the 81% and 83% similarity level, different numbers of phenons were obtained for Gram-negative and Gram-positive halotolerant microorganisms. Most of the 48 Gram-negative metal-tolerant strains studied were grouped into nine phenons, representing the genera Pseudoalteromonas, Alteromonas, Xanthomonas, Pseudomonas, Alcaligenes and Enterobacteria. The 72 Gram-positive metal-tolerant strains grouped into eight phenons, with only 15 strains left unassigned. Most of the isolates were assigned to the genus Bacillus (seven phenons), and one phenon comprised microorganisms with phenotypic characteristics similar to those of the genus Celullomonas.     

Regulation of extracellular laccase production of Agaricus bisporus by nitrogen sources in the medium

Abstract The substrate specificity of cystathionine γ-synthase (EC 4.2.99.9) in various bacteria was examined. O-Succinyl- l -homoserine was used preferably as a substrate by facultative anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria belonging to such genera as Escherichia, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Citrobacter, Erwinia, Serratia, Proteus and Salmonella . Among Gram-negative aerobic bacteria, bacteria belonging to the genera Pseudomonas, Xanthomonas and Alcaligenes also used O -succinyl- l -homoserine in preference to O -acetyl- l -homoserine. On the other hand, bacteria belonging to the genera Agrobacterium and Flavobacterium used O -acetyl- l -homoserine preferably. As to Gram-positive aerobic bacteria, bacteria of the genus Bacillus used O -acetyl- l -homoserine exclusively. Bacteria belonging to the genera Micrococcus, Corynebacterium, Brevibacterium and Arthrobacter used both O -acetyl- and O -succinyl- l -homoserine to similar extents.     

Diversity analysis of diazotrophic bacteria associated with the roots of tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze)

The diversity elucidation by amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis and 16S rDNA sequencing of 96 associative diazotrophs, isolated from the feeder roots of tea on enriched nitrogen-free semisolid media, revealed the predominance of Gram-positive over Gram-negative bacteria within the Kangra valley in Himachal Pradesh, India. The Gram-positive bacteria observed belong to two taxonomic groupings; Firmicutes, including the genera Bacillus and Paenibacillus; and Actinobacteria, represented by the genus Microbacterium. The Gram-negative bacteria included alpha-Proteobacteria genera Brevundimonas, Rhizobium, and Mesorhizobium; gamma-Proteobacteria genera Pseudomonas and Stenotrophomonas; and beta-Proteobacteria genera Azospira, Burkholderia, Delftia, Herbaspirillum and Ralstonia. The low level of similarity of two isolates, with the type strains Paenibacillus xinjiangensis and Mesorhizobium albiziae, suggests the possibility of raising species novum. The bacterial strains of different phylogenetic groups exhibited distinct carbon-source utilization patterns and fatty acid methyl ester profiles. The strains differed in their nitrogenase activities with relatively high activity seen in the Gramnegative strains exhibiting the highest similarity to Azospira oryzae, Delftia lacustris and Herbaspirillum huttiense.     

Native and heterologous production of bacteriocins from gram-positive microorganisms

In nature, microorganisms can present several mechanisms for setting intercommunication and defense. One of these mechanisms is related to the production of bacteriocins, which are peptides with antimicrobial activity. Bacteriocins can be found in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Nevertheless, bacteriocins produced by Gram-positive bacteria are of particular interest due to the industrial use of several strains that belong to this group, especially lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which have the status of generally recognized as safe (GRAS) microorganisms. In this work, we will review recent tendencies in the field of invention and state of art related to bacteriocin production by Gram-positive microorganism. Hundred-eight patents related to Gram-positive bacteriocin producers have been disclosed since 1965, from which 57% are related bacteriocins derived from Lactococcus, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, and Pediococcus strains. Surprisingly, patents regarding heterologous bacteriocins production were mainly presented just in the last decade. Although the major application of bacteriocins is concerned to food industry to control spoilage and foodborne bacteria, during the last years bacteriocin applications have been displacing to the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and plant disease resistance and growth promotion.     

Culture-based and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of the bacterial community structure from the intestinal tracts of earthworms(Eisenia fetida)

The bacterial communities in the intestinal tracts of earthworm were investigated by culture-dependent and - independent approaches. In total, 72 and 55 pure cultures were isolated from the intestinal tracts of earthworms under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, respectively. Aerobic bacteria were classified as Aeromonas (40%), Bacillus (37%), Photobacterium (10%), Pseudomonas (7%), and Shewanella (6%). Anaerobic bacteria were classified as Aeromonas (52%), Bacillus (27%), Shewanella (12%), Paenibacillus (5%), Clostridium (2%), and Cellulosimicrobium (2%). The dominant microorganisms were Aeromonas and Bacillus species under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. In all, 39 DNA fragments were identified by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analysis. Aeromonas sp. was the dominant microorganism in feeds, intestinal tracts, and casts of earthworms. The DGGE band intensity of Aeromonas from feeds, intestinal tracts, and casts of earthworms was 12.8%, 14.7%, and 15.1%, respectively. The other strains identified were Bacillus, Clostridium, Enterobacter, Photobacterium, Pseudomonas, Shewanella, Streptomyces, uncultured Chloroflexi bacterium, and uncultured bacterium. These results suggest that PCR-DGGE analysis was more efficient than the culture-dependent approach for the investigation of bacterial diversity and the identification of unculturable microorganisms.     

Isolation and phylogenetic analysis of bacteria with antimicrobial activities from the Mediterranean sponges Aplysina aerophoba and Aplysina cavernicola

The aim of this study was to isolate bacteria with antimicrobial activities from the marine sponges Aplysina aerophoba and Aplysina cavernicola. The obtained 27 isolates could be subdivided into eight phylogenetically different clusters based on comparative sequence analysis of their 16S rDNA genes. The sponge isolates were affiliated with the low (Bacillus) and high G+C Gram-positive bacteria (Arthobacter, Micrococcus), as well as the alpha-Proteobacteria (unknown isolate) and gamma-Proteobacteria (Vibrio, Pseudoalteromonas). One novel Bacillus species was identified and two species were closely related to previously uncharacterized strains. Isolates with antimicrobial activity were numerically most abundant in the genera Pseudoalteromonas and the alpha-Proteobacteria. The sponge isolates show antimicrobial activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative reference strains but not against the fungus Candida albicans. A general pattern was observed in that Gram-positive bacteria inhibited Gram-positive strains while Gram-negative bacteria inhibited Gram-negative isolates. Antimicrobial activities were also found against clinical isolates, i.e. multi-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis strains isolated from hospital patients. The high recovery of strains with antimicrobial activity suggests that marine sponges represent an ecological niche which harbors a hitherto largely uncharacterized microbial diversity and, concomitantly, a yet untapped metabolic potential.     

Heterotrophic bacterial populations in the mineral waters of thermal springs in Spain

The microbiological quality and heterotrophic bacterial populations of 26 thermal mineral water springs in Spain were studied. In most of the springs the number of viable aerobes was less than 10³ cfu ml^-1 and the number of sporulated bacteria less than 10² cfu ml^-1. No significant differences were foundin the counts obtained with Plate Count Agar (PCA) and PCA diluted 1 : 10 and incubated at 22°, 37° and 45°C. Total coliforms were found in 14 springs, faecal streptococci in three, spores of sulphite-reducing Clostridium and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in seven. Neither Escherichia coli nor Staphylococcus aureus were found. A total of 665 strains were isolated and 85·4% of these identified; 329 were Gram-positive and 239 were Gram-negative. The genera most prevalent present in the springs were Pseudomonas (in 92.3%), Bacillus (65.4%), Enterobacter, Micrococcus and Staphylococcus (50%), Acinetobacter (42.3%), Arthrobacter (38.4%), Clostridium (27%) and Xanthomonas (23%). Gram-negative bacteria predominated in the mesothermal springs and Gram-positive bacteria in the hyper- and hypothermal springs. The most common Gram-negative rod species isolated were Ps. fluorescens, Ps. aeruginosa, Ps. putida, Ent. agglomerans, Ent. sakazakii, Ac. calcoaceticus and Ent. amnigenus.
