Rapid and simple detections of two kinds of prohibited fish drugs, crystal violet （CV） and malachite green （MG）, were accomplished by surface-enhanced Raman scattering （SERS）. Based on the optimized Au/cicada wing, the detectable concentration of CV/MG can reach 10-7 M, and the linear logarithmic quantitative relationship curves between log/and logC allows for the determination of the unknown concentration of CV/MG solution. The detection of these two analytes in real environment was also achieved, demonstrating the application potential of SERS in the fast screening of the prohibited fish drugs, which is of great benefit for food safety and environmental monitoring.
Concerns about feasibility,separability,settleability,efficiency once hampered studies on polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHAs)production,which mainly focused on single strain microorganism or activated sludge rather than artificial microbial consortia.Here,a medium chain length PHAs(mcl-PHAs)producing Pseudomonas-Saccharomyces consortium with xylose as the main substrate was studied.Mcl-PHAs accumulation increased from 12.69 mg·L^-1 to 152.3 mg·L^-1 without any optimization method.The presence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae,though in a relatively low concentration,improved the sedimentation of cell mass of the mixed culture by 60%.Reasons for better sedimentation of the consortium were complex:first,the length of Pseudomonas putida increased two to three times in the consortium;second,the positive surface charge of P.putida was neutralized by S.cerevisiae;third,the adhesion proteins on the surface of S.cerevisiae interacted with the P.putida.
