Abstract  A novel bioflocculant‐producing Bacillus sp . was isolated from soil by streak plate method , and screened out by an index that the fermentation broth flocculated kaolin suspension . The strain was identified by physiological and biochemical characteristics and 16S rDNA sequence analysis . The effect of the factors such as fermentation broth dosage , Ca2 + concentration and pH on the flocculation were investigated . The results revealed that a novel bioflocculant‐producing bacterium , named MBFF6 , was isolated from soil and identified as Bacillus megaterium ; its flocculating rate could achieve 95.7% ; the optimal condition for flocculation was as follows : ermentation broth dosage of 2% , Ca2 + concentration of 4.5 mmol.L - 1 and pH 7 .0The bioflocculant was produced during the bacterial growth and was an extracellular product which was distributed in the culture broth.

高絮凝活性芽孢杆菌的筛选及其絮凝特性研究

采用平板分离法从土壤中分离芽孢杆菌,以发酵液对高岭土悬液絮凝效果为指标筛选高絮凝 活性菌株,并通过细菌形态、生理生化特性和16S rDNA 序列分析进行鉴定;同时考察发酵液加入量、Ca2 + 浓度和pH 对絮凝效果的影响以及微生物絮凝剂在发酵液中的分布.结果表明:从土壤中分离筛选 到1 株具有高效絮凝活性的芽孢杆菌MBFF6 ,其絮凝率可达95 .7% ;根据细菌菌落形态、生理生化特性和16S rDNA 序列分析,确定该菌株为巨大芽孢杆菌;其最佳絮凝条件为加入的菌液体积分数2% ,Ca2 + 浓度4.5 mmol.L - 1 ,pH 7.0 ;该微生物絮凝剂是细菌在生长过程中产生的胞外代谢产物,存在于发酵液中.
