The experimental method for the measurement Chemotaxis of Bacteria that the specific embodiment of the invention provides, mainly includes the following steps:
S1: the bacterium with locomitivity is resuspended in the first centrifuge tube 1 after rinsing;
When specific operation, the inoculum of certain volume can be first taken from Micro-Organism Culture Dish, and utilizes PBS buffer solution (i.e. phosphate buffered saline solution) centrifugal rinsing twice, then recycles the PSF buffer containing 0.3% methylcellulose by bacterium It is resuspended in the first centrifuge tube 1.
In experimental method provided by the invention, it is preferable to use the bacterium that logarithmic growth phase is arrived in culture, the groups of logarithmic phase for bacterium Body cell has many advantages, such as that physiological property ingredient balance more each than more consistent, cell increases and growth rate is constant, is metabolism, physiology The good material of research, and the optimal material as strain.
In addition, the application is not specifically limited the type of bacterium, it can select spiral shell substance etc. is any there is movement energy The bacterium of power.
S2: being drawn in the agar containing preset concentration attractant to its pipette tips 2 using liquid-transfering gun, and pipette tips 2 are inserted into first In centrifuge tube 1, and it is immersed in the tip of the pipette tips in bacterial suspension.
It should be noted that the top of pipette tips 2 is higher than bacterial suspension liquid when pipette tips 2 are inserted into the first centrifuge tube 1 The tip in face, only pipette tips 2 is immersed in bacterial suspension.
In addition, the application is not specifically limited the type of attractant, used in different bacterium there are many types of attractant Attractant is not exactly the same, specifically can select attractant according to bacterial species;The concentration of attractant specifically may be used in agar To need sets itself according to experiment, the application is not specifically limited this.
S3: after standing preset time, pipette tips 2 are taken out out of first centrifuge tube 1;
S4: the agar in pipette tips 2 is got to the second centrifuge tube using liquid-transfering gun.
When specific operation, after drawing in agar to its pipette tips 2 using liquid-transfering gun, directly liquid-transfering gun can be utilized pipette tips 2 squeeze into the first centrifuge tube 1, and pipette tips 2 is made to be immersed in the bacterial suspension in the first centrifuge tube 1 filled with the tip of attractant In;After standing preset time and taking out pipette tips 2 out of first centrifuge tube 1, first pipette tips 2 are mounted on liquid-transfering gun, cotton ball soaked in alcohol After the bacterium for wiping 2 surface of pipette tips, liquid-transfering gun is recycled to get the agar in pipette tips 2.
During standing, the chemical substance in 2 tip of pipette tips is spread around, and the bacterium for experiencing chemical substance then can court To 2 tip motion of pipette tips and enter in the agar inside pipette tips 2.
Pollution of the agar by external environment, operating process carry out in Biohazard Safety Equipment when wherein, to avoid standing, In It, can be in the nozzle upper cover upper tube cap 3 of the first centrifuge tube 1, when reaching standing after the first centrifuge tube 1 is inserted at the tip of pipette tips 2 Between after, then open pipe lid 3 take out pipette tips 2.
In addition, can be with the taxis of Accurate Determining bacterium for guarantee, time of repose is unsuitable too short also unsuitable too long, preferably Ground, time of repose can be located at 30min or so.
S5: measuring and calculating enters the cell relative number in agar, and then determines bacterium to the chemotaxis of corresponding chemical attractant Ability.
Wherein it should be noted that bacterium is unicellular microorganism, therefore the cell relative number in entrance pipette tips 2, that is, thin Bacterium relative number.
It preferably, can be opposite into the cell in pipette tips 2 to calculate by the concentration of ATP in kit measurement agar Number, and then determine bacterium to the ability of the chemotaxis of corresponding chemical attractant.
Wherein, ATP refers to adenosine triphyosphate (abbreviation atriphos), is most direct energy in organism Source according to ATP content and then can be calculated since ATP content is roughly the same and relatively stable in each bacterial cell Bacterial number.And ATP concentration is generally measured using fluorescein-luciferase biloluminescence method at present.
The experimental method of measurement Chemotaxis of Bacteria provided by the invention contains attractant using the absorption of pipette tips 2 of liquid-transfering gun Agar, after making bacterium enter pipette tips 2 using attractant, recycle liquid-transfering gun the agar in pipette tips 2 is got, it is easy to operate It is convenient, security risk is not present, and liquid-transfering gun is reusable;And it is evaluated by the concentration of measurement ATP into pipette tips 2 Cell relative number, compared with the mode for directly counting number under the microscope, operation is more simple and convenient, and experimental result is more acurrate.
