原位微区同步辐射X射线荧光和近边吸收谱研究铅耐受细菌吸附-转化铅机理

为了从微观水平研究细菌生物吸附及转化铅机理,利用原位微区同步辐射X射线荧光(μ-SRXRF)及X射线吸收近边结构谱( XANES)研究云南兰坪铅锌矿区农田土壤样品中筛选的铅耐受性细菌吸附铅的分布特征及铅形态转化规律。土壤中具有铅耐受性的菌株主要为Arthrobacter sp.属(节杆菌属),采用μ-SRXRF对其吸附铅的含量进行快速简单直接分析,部分细菌吸附铅的含量高达5925μg/g,富集系数达14.8。XANES结果表明,细菌吸附 Pb 后存在形态为 PbS、(C17 H35 COO)2Pb 和 Pb5(PO4)3Cl 分别占58.0％,22.2％和19.8％,与培养基本身以有机态为主的Pb形态有明显差异,表明培养基中铅被细菌吸附后有向硫化物转化的趋势,这为研究重金属生物有效性的影响因素提供了实验参考。

Mechanism of Lead Biosorption and Biotransformation in Lead-Resistant Bacteria by In Situ Synchrotron Radiation Micro X-Ray Fluorescence and X-Ray Absorption Near Edge Structure

To investigate the mechanism of lead biosorption and biotransformation in lead-resistant bacteria in microcosmic scale, synchrotron radiation micro X-ray fluorescence (μ-SRXRF ) and X-ray absorption near edge structure ( XANES) was used to determine the element distribution characteristics and speciation of lead ( Pb) in lead-resistant bacteria strain isolated from farmland soil samples taken from a lead-zinc mine in Lanping county, Yunnan province in China. The isolated species was identified to be Arthrobacter sp. The concentration of Pb biosorpted in lead-resistant bacteria was directly determined byμ-SRXRF, and the results showed that the highest concentration was 5925μg/g and the bioaccumulate factor was 14 . 8 . Speciation of Pb in lead-resistant bacteria B2, LB ( Lysogeny Broth) medium and soil were also presented after using Pb LⅢXANES. Compared with Pb LⅢ XANES peak shape and peak position between standard samples, it was demonstrated that the Pb in lead-resistant bacteria was mainly formed by amorphous forms like PbS (58. 0%), (C17H35COO)2Pb (22. 2%), Pb5(PO4)3Cl (19. 8%) rather than organic Pb speciation which was exist in LB medium. Therefore, the isolated lead-resistant bacteria could biotransform Pb to sulfuric compounds. The biotransformation regular could be of great interest for other investigators as reference in study of bioavailability impact factor of heavy metals.
