【目的】研究耐铁粪肠球菌X4对铁的富集能力,为开发生物有机铁制剂提供依据。【方法】采用单因素试验,以粪肠球菌X4菌体产量和铁富集率为指标,对影响X4铁富集性能的铁离子质量浓度、铁加入时间、X4菌液接种量、培养时间、碳源及氮源种类等发酵条件进行初筛;再采用L_(18)(3^(7))正交试验,以铁富集率为指标,对最佳碳源、氮源添加量及上述其他发酵条件进一步优化;最后在优化的发酵条件下进行15 L发酵罐模拟试验,对X4的铁富集性能进行评价。【结果】粪肠球菌X4铁富集最优发酵条件为:铁离子质量浓度650 mg/L,培养16 h加铁,X4菌液接种量为体积分数18%,培养时间84 h,可溶性淀粉添加量20 g/L,酵母膏添加量15 g/L,氯化铵添加量4 g/L。最优发酵条件下的发酵罐模拟试验结果显示,耐铁粪肠球菌X4的单位菌体产量为5.52 g/L,单位菌体铁富集量101.38 mg/g,铁富集率86.16%,单位菌体有机铁富集量12.67 mg/g,铁有机化率12.5%。【结论】从铁富集量、铁富集率和铁有机化率来看,耐铁粪肠球菌X4具备生产生物有机铁制剂的潜力。

Membrane preconcentration of iron in seawater samples and on-site determination in spectrophotometry

A novel method for on-site determination of trace iron was developed using membrane preconcentration and spectrophotometric detection. Fe（II）-ferrozine complex was reacted with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide （CTAB） to form a Fe（II）-ferrozine-CTAB paired compound, which was collected on a membrane by filtration under vacuum. The membrane was immersed in 2 mL of ethanol-nitric acid and the absorbance of the solution measured for quantitative analysis. Various factors affecting the iron collection and determination were investigated. With different sample preconcentration volumes, the range of determination was broadened to 0.5-120 ~tg/L. The detection limit of this method reached 0.19 ktg/L and the recoveries were between 97.2 and 109% when the concentration enrichment was about 45. The relative standard deviation （n = 7） was 1.9% for samples containing 10 ~g/L Fe. Twelve seawater samples were analyzed on-site using the proposed method, and two were also analyzed in inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. No significant difference was shown between the two methods by the Student＇s t-test. The method has also been used on-site for iron enrichment experiments with phytoplankton and concluded to be simple, accurate and inexpensive.
