RESUMEN
In this study, high-phosphorus beared microalgae was prepared by cultivating modification in high-phosphorus culture, and used for the enhanced Cd(II) biomineralization in soil. Batch experiment results showed that Chlorella sorokiniana FK was modified successfully in highly phosphate culture. Both intracellular P (Poly-P, 29.7 mg/kg) and surface P (phosphoryl based functional groups, 3.7 mol/kg) were greatly enhanced, and the Cd(II) removal capacity surged to 45.98 mg/g at equilibrium in the Langmuir simulation. The EXAFS analysis indicated that Cd tended to form a more stable bidentate complex (RPO4)2Cd when bounding with phosphate groups on the surface of the high-phosphorus microalgae. Moreover, high-phosphorus beared microalgae not only had higher immobilization amount of Cd(II), but also promoted immobilized Cd from adsorbed state to mineralized state. After high-phosphate cultured, increased density of P-related groups provided more adsorption sites, while the decomposition of intracellular Poly-P released phosphate ions into cell surface microenvironment, which combined and promoted the formation of Cd3(PO4)2/Cd(H2PO4)2 on cell surface. Cd-contaminated soil remediation experiments applying high-surface-phosphate beared microalgae further showed that more Cd stabilized as a residue fraction within 49 days. This study proposes that the high-phosphate culture strategy is a good way to improve the immobilization of heavy metals in soil induced by microorganisms.

Sudan I is a carcinogenic and mutagenic azo-compound that has been utilized as a common adulterant in spice and spice blends to impart a desirable red color to foods. A novel biosensor combining molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), thin layer chromatography (TLC) and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) could determine Sudan I levels in paprika powder to 1 ppm (or 2 ng/spot). Sudan I spiked paprika extracts (spiking levels: 0, 1, 5, 10, 40, 70 and 100 ppm) were prepared. Sudan I imprinted polymers were synthesized by employing the interaction between Sudan I (template) and methacrylic acid (functional monomer), followed by washing to remove Sudan I leaving the Sudan I-binding sites exposed. MIPs were used as a stationary phase for TLC and could selectively retain Sudan I at the original spot with little interference. A gold colloid SERS substrate could enhance Raman intensity for Sudan I in this MIP-TLC system. Principal component analysis plot and partial least squares regression (R(2)=0.978) models were constructed and a linear regression model (R(2)=0.983) correlated spiking levels (5, 10, 40, 70 and 100 ppm) with the peak intensities (721 cm(-1)) of Sudan I SERS spectra. Both separation (30-40s) and detection (1s or 0.1s) were extremely fast by using both commercial bench-top and custom made portable Raman spectrometers. This biosensor can be applied as a rapid, low-cost and reliable tool for screening Sudan I adulteration in foods.
