Description

Microorganism with polystyrene plastic degradation activity and method for degrading plastic by using microorganism
Technical Field
The invention discloses a microorganism with polystyrene plastic particle degradation activity and application thereof. More particularly, the present invention discloses a microorganism which is separated from lake bottom sediments and can partially or wholly degrade polystyrene plastics, and a method for degrading polystyrene plastics by using the microorganism.
Background
Plastic contamination has become a global problem because plastics have many properties, such as resistance to oxidation, fire degradation, and corrosion. In 2017, the global plastic cumulative yield reaches 83 hundred million tons. By 2050, this figure is expected to increase to 340 billion metric tons. In 2015 and 2017, global plastic production reached 6.3 and 8.3 million tons respectively, but only 9% of the plastic was recycled or incinerated, the remainder decomposed by weathering into fine pieces, and a large portion of the pieces had been converted to "microplastics" (diameter < 5 mm). Microplastics are consumed by a variety of organisms, leading to false satiety, pathological stress and reproductive complications. In short, the ultimate fate of plastics has become an increasing concern.
According to incomplete statistics, polystyrene accounts for about 6% of the world plastic yield in 2017 and is one of the most typical contributors to plastic pollution. However, polystyrene has a linear carbon backbone with alternating backbone atoms attached to the phenyl moiety. Enzymes secreted by microorganisms are more difficult to convert into monomers and degrade. In the course of exploring ways to degrade polystyrene, researchers have discovered that while polystyrene can persist in the environment and resist degradation, they can be degraded by insects, fungi, bacteria, and the like. In all degrading organisms, bacteria dominate. Because bacteria have the inherent ability to adapt to almost all environments and have the potential to degrade a variety of compounds, including polystyrene.
Some researchers have screened polystyrene degrading bacteria and successfully studied their degradation characteristics. For example, Chauhan et al reported that strains DR11 and DR14 can form strong biofilms on polystyrene surfaces and can also utilize polystyrene as a carbon source. The degradation rate of the two strains on polystyrene is about 4%. Yang et al investigated the role of the intestinal bacteria of mealworms in the degradation of polystyrene. Suspension cultures of strain YT2 were able to degrade 7.40 ± 0.40% polystyrene sheets within a 60 day incubation period. These results strongly demonstrate the ability of bacteria to degrade polystyrene. At the same time, no more functional microorganisms are isolated and the interaction between bacteria and plastics remains to be elucidated. There have been no reports of a large amount of information on physical and chemical analyses of polystyrene surfaces during degradation. Therefore, the physical, chemical and biological indicators in the degradation process of plastics need further research.
Therefore, a greater variety of microorganisms are required to decompose polystyrene more efficiently. In this patent, a bacillus cereus capable of degrading polystyrene particles is isolated. The growth characteristics of the strains and their ability to degrade polystyrene were examined. At the same time, changes in biodegradation were further confirmed using scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. All results indicate that Bacillus cereus CH6 can colonize, degrade and utilize polystyrene. The research result can provide theoretical reference for the microbial remediation of the soil or water polluted by the micro-plastics. This may enrich the microbial strain pool and provide a new way for the degradation of polystyrene.

The strain showed significant growth in the medium inoculated with polystyrene plastic particles. From day 1 to day 15, the bacterial concentration increases exponentially, OD 600 Increasing from 0.2119 to 0.4433. Around 20d, the bacterial growth rate decreased, but the OD 600 Increasing from 0.4433 to 0.4592, the strain reached the maximum OD 600 . This indicates that the strain has finished the exponential growth phase and has just entered the stationary phase. OD 600 This increase coincides with an increase in the number of bacteria. The highest bacterial cell number (15.9X 10) was also recorded on day 20 of the experiment 7 CFU/ml)。
The initial mass of the polystyrene plastic particles in the medium was 0.50g, and after 50 days of degradation, 446.50mg of polystyrene plastic particles remained.As shown in fig. 3The weight loss of the polystyrene particles without microbial treatment was 1.03%. The weight loss of PS MP was 10.70% after 50 days of biodegradation evaluation with Bacillus cereus CH 6. The calculation shows that the degradation rate reaches 0.97 mg/d. Other strains are usually between 0.30 and 0.70 mg/d. This indicates that the isolated pure species had higher degradation activity and rate.
Example 2 surface topography Change of Bacillus cereus CH6 degradation polystyrene particle Plastic
100mL polystyrene degradation culture medium is taken in a 250mL conical flask, the polystyrene degradation culture medium is sterilized by high-temperature steam for 30min at the temperature of 121 ℃, and after cooling, a liquid transfer device is used for adding 5mL bacillus cereus liquid (OD) 600 nm is 0.50-1.00), sealing with sealing film, and placing in shaking table at 25 deg.C and 160r min -1 Culturing under the condition, and inspecting the shape change of the polystyrene surface by using SEM in the degradation process.As shown in fig. 4 After 50 days, the untreated (control) polystyrene particles had a smooth surface and no microorganisms on the surface of the polystyrene particlesAttachment of a substance (FIGS. 4a and 4c)。As shown in fig. 4b After 50 days of incubation, bacterial colonization was observed on the surface of the polystyrene particles. The microbially treated polystyrene particles exhibit increased adhesion and number. This indicates that Bacillus cereus CH6 can adapt to the living environment created by plastics and can grow normally. It was observed that various pores/pits and irregularities were formed on the surfaces of PS MPs exposed to the separator: (FIG. 4d) Simultaneously exhibit phenomena of surface erosion, fissures, folds and bacterial colonization (FIGS. 4e and 4f)。

100mL polystyrene degradation culture medium is taken in a 250mL conical flask, the polystyrene degradation culture medium is sterilized by high-temperature steam for 30min at the temperature of 121 ℃, and after cooling, a liquid transfer device is used for adding 5mL bacillus cereus liquid (OD) 600 nm is 0.50-1.00), sealing with sealing film, and placing in shaking table at 25 deg.C and 160r min -1 Culturing under the condition, and inspecting the shape change of the polystyrene surface by using SEM in the degradation process. Samples were taken every 10 days and the total protein content as well as the esterase activity in each sample was determined. The degradation of the strain was investigated from the molecular level.As shown in fig. 5The protein content of the isolate is about 50-106. mu.g/ml, which is highest at the stage of highest degradation rate. The esterase activity can be found to be in the range of 3-13U/ml through analysis. In the absence of any carbon source in the medium, changes in protein content and esterase activity of the bacterial species indicated that it used polystyrene plastic particles as a carbon source. In addition, the peak values of protein content and enzyme activity, 105ug/ml and 1350U/ml respectively, appeared at day 30 of fermentation, demonstrating that the strain is secreted in the logarithmic growth phase with vigorous metabolism.
