摘要:

黏土矿物与微生物在自然环境中广泛共存。二者之间的相互作用影响着环境中的能量流动与元素循环。黏土矿物能够给微生物提供物理或化学保护,提高微生物对外界胁迫和干扰的抵抗能力。黏土矿物同时还能给微生物提供营养元素,促进其新陈代谢过程。黏土矿物中的结构铁是微生物铁氧化还原循环的重要电子供/受体。在氧化还原的环境中,多种铁还原/铁氧化细菌可以通过还原氧化黏土矿物中的结构Fe(III)/Fe(II),进而获得能量进行生长。在氧化还原过程中,微生物也可以通过溶解、转化、沉淀等作用改变黏土矿物的晶格结构及物相,或是产生新的次生矿物。黏土矿物-微生物相互作用在碳、氮、硅、磷等重要生命元素的地球化学循环中扮演着重要角色。黏土矿物可以通过吸附有机碳,降低有机碳的生物可利用性,减缓其矿化速率。在氧化还原波动的环境中,黏土矿物还可以通过活化分子氧,产生强氧化性自由基氧化降解有机质,提高其生物可利用性。黏土矿物还会吸附生物胞外酶,影响胞外酶降解有机质的效率。微生物通过耦合黏土矿物中铁氧化与硝酸盐还原,铁还原与氨氧化等过程影响氮循环。黏土矿物对磷的吸附以及风化过程中硅的释放影响着微生物的代谢活性。黏土矿物-微生物相互作用在重金属固化稳定、有机污染物降解、杀死病原菌等方面也有广泛的应用。

Abstract:

Clay minerals and microbes co-exist in natural environments, and their interaction can influence energy flow and element cycling. Clay minerals provide microbes with physical/chemical protection against environmental stress, as well as nutrients boosting their metabolism. Structural iron in clay mineral is an important electron acceptor/donor for iron-reducing/oxidizing microbes, where in redox environment many iron-reducing/oxidizing bacteria can reduce/oxidize structural Fe(III)/Fe(II) in clay minerals as they gain energy from the redox process. During such process redox microbes can alter the atomic structure of clay minerals through dissolution, transformation and precipitation where secondary minerals are also produced. Clay mineral-microbe interaction plays important role in geochemical cycling of carbon, nitrogen, silicon and phosphorus. Clay mineral can reduce organic carbon bioavailability and mineralization rate through adsorption; whereas under fluctuating redox conditions it can activate molecular oxygen to produce reactive oxygen species to degrade organic matters thus increasing their bioavailability. Through adsorption clay mineral can also reduce extracellular enzyme activity in organic matter degradation. Microbes can affect nitrogen cycling in clays by coupling iron oxidation (reduction) with nitrate reduction (ammonia oxidation) in clay. Phosphorus adsorption on clays and silicon release during weathering can affect the metabolic activity of microbes. Clay mineral-microbe interaction can find a wide range of application in heavy metal stabilization, organic pollutant degradation and sterilization.

Key words: clay mineral, microbe, interaction, element cycling, energy, electron transfer, redox, environmental remediation
