高效产氢细菌新种——Ethanologenbacterium sp.X-1的分离鉴定及其产氢效能

Isolation and Characterization of New Species Hydrogen Producing Bacterium Ethanologenbacterium sp.Strain X-1 and Its Capability of Hydrogen Production

为获得高效产氢发酵细菌 ,采用改进的厌氧Hungate培养技术 ,从生物制氢反应器CSTR中分离一株产氢细菌X 1。对该株细菌进行了形态学特征、生理生化指标、16SrDNA和 16S 2 3SrDNA间隔区序列分析等研究。结果表明与最相近的种属Clostridiumcellulosi和Acetanaerobacteriumelongatum等的 16SrRNA基因序列同源性为 94 %以下。16S 2 3SrRNA间隔区基因序列比对分析显示保守区域仅为tRNAAla和tRNAIle序列 ,其它可变部位没有同源性区域 ,鉴定为新属Ethanologenbacteriumsp .。该株细菌为专性厌氧杆菌 ,代谢特征为乙醇发酵 ,葡萄糖发酵产物主要为乙醇、乙酸、H2 和CO2 。在pH4 0和 36℃条件下最大产氢速率是 2 8 3mmolH2 (gdrycell·h)。

To obtain hydrogen-producing bacterium of high efficiency, a strain X-1 of hydrogen-producing bacteria was isolated from the continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) by anaerobic Hungate technique. The Comparative sequence analysis of 16S rDNA showed that homology of strain X-1 with Clostridium cellulose and Acetanaerobacterium elongatum is less than 94%. All sequence alignment of 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer regions (ISR) indicated displayed that consensus region is tRNA Ala and tRNA Ile, variable region is not homologous. Morphological, physic-biochemical character, and comparative sequence analysis of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA ISR indicated that strain X-1 belong to new genus named Ethanologenbacterium gen. nov.. Strain X-1 is facultative anaerobe bacillus; its main fermentative products are acetic acid, ethanol, H 2 and CO 2. The metabolic character of strain X-1 is typical ethanol type fermentation. Its capabi- lity of hydrogen production was measured in the batch culture experiment. X-1's maximum specific hydrogen producing rate is 28.3 mmol H 2/(g dry cell·h) at pH 4.0 and 36℃. Result of identify and analysis of hydrogen production ability demonstrated strain X-1 belong to new genus of high hydrogen-producing bacteria.
