     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of biochemical engineering, and specifically relates to  Klebsiella pneumoniae and use thereof.    
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Using fossil fuels could cause a series of environmental problems, it is urgent to develop clean biomass energy. Biomass-based productions of food, chemicals, energy and fuels are made great progress in recent years. It is very attractive to degrade lignocellulose from industrial and agricultural wastes and produce energy products (such as ethanol, methane, and hydrogen) and/or chemicals (such as acetic acid, butyric acid, and propionic acid), which may replace fossil fuels. The ethanol and hydrogen as the most ideal biofuels are well-defined production technologies and processes. However, raw material sources and production processes of the ethanol and hydrogen still need to be improved. The raw materials for producing ethanol mainly come from various starch such as corn, resulting in the phenomena of “competing with people for grain” and “competing with grain for land”. The industrial production of hydrogen is 96% from fossil energy cracking to produce hydrogen, and 4% from water electrolysis to produce hydrogen, which limits long-term and sustainable development for hydrogen energy. 
     Cellulose is the most abundant renewable resource on the earth, it is mainly synthesized by plants through photosynthesis. About 2.5×10 12  t of the cellulose can be produced annually. However, it is made up of linear chains of 1,4-β-linked glucosyl residues, which lead to the difficulty for effective degradation. So, a large part of cellulose resources are wasted, and even turning into solid wastes causing environmental pollution. The use of waste cellulose materials to produce energy products can alleviate the tight energy demand, as well as solve the environmental and resource waste problems caused by solid wastes. Enzymatic hydrolysis cellulose is an environmentally friendly and effective way in numerous cellulose degradation technology. However, lacking high-efficiency enzymes or microbes that deconstruct cellulose is a major bottleneck. Lots of researchers have focused to screen high efficient cellulase-producing microorganisms from different niches (soil, compost piles, rumens and so on). So far, a variety of anaerobic and aerobic cellulolytic bacteria with cellulase secretion capacity were isolated from different environments. Rumen microorganisms have diverse kinds of enzymes activities with cellulase, xylanase, β-glucanase, and so on. Therefore, it is of great significance to obtain a novel strain with the capable of degrade cellulose and producing energy products such as ethanol and hydrogen from rumen. This work will contribute to develop clean biomass energy to replace fossil fuels.

     Isolation, Identification and Preservation of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 CCTCC NO: M2019851 
     I. Isolation of a Cellulose-Degrading Bacterium Y7-3 
     1. 0.6 mL of a bovine rumen sample (collected from Xikouzi Slaughterhouse, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China) was added to a shake flask (50 mL) containing 30 mL of an LB liquid medium, and mixed well; and shaking culture was conducted at 37° C. and 180 rpm for 12 h to obtain a cultured bacterial solution. 
     2. 1 mL of the cultured bacterial solution was added into a sterile test tube containing 9 mL of sterile water and mixed thoroughly (a dilution at this time was recorded as 10 −1 ); 1 mL of sample was drawn from the test tube and added to another sterile test tube containing 9 mL of the sterile water and mixed well; similarly, bacterial solutions with different dilutions were prepared at 10 −2 , 10 −3 , 10 −4 , 10 −5 , 10 −6 , 10 −7 , and 10 −8 . 0.1 mL of each dilution was evenly spread on the MacConkey Agar (MAC)medium, and cultured at 37° C. for 1 d. The pink or red colonies were purified more than 3 times on the MAC medium. 
     3. The initial screening of cellulose degradation ability was conducted by a plate transparent zone method. 2 μL of a bacterial suspension of each strain purified in step 2 was inoculated onto a Congo red plate (each strain was repeated 3 times on one plate and a bacterial content in the bacterial suspension of each strain was the same), and cultured at 37° C. for 24 h; the strain was stained with a 1% (m/v) Congo red staining solution for 1 h; and the strain was decolorized by a 0.9% (m/v) NaCl aqueous solution, and then observed. 
     A strain forming a large transparent zone on the Congo red plate (that is, the strain could degrade cellulose) was screened, as shown in  FIG.  1   , and named as cellulose-degrading bacterium Y7-3. 
     II. Identification of the Cellulose-Degrading Bacterium Y7-3 
     1. Colony Morphological Identification

     The results showed that the cellulose-degrading bacterium Y7-3 had round, light red, and opaque colonies with a diameter of 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm, neat edges and a smooth and moist surface. 
     2. Identification of Physiological and Biochemical Characteristics 
     The physiological and biochemical characteristics of cellulose-degrading bacterium Y7-3 was identified by a single-box biochemical identification kit (product of Guangdong Huankai Microbial Sci. &amp; Tech. Co., Ltd.). The specific operation steps were as follows: 
     1) Under sterile conditions, an aluminum cap of a biochemical identification tube was opened (a component in the single-box biochemical identification kit). 
     2) The cellulose-degrading bacterium Y7-3 strain cultured to the logarithmic phase was diluted with sterile physiological saline to obtain a diluent with a concentration of 10 8  cfu/mL; 1 to 2 drops of the diluent was inoculated into the biochemical identification tube, and incubated at 37° C. and 180 r/min; the color change was observed within a specified time according to instructions of the kit, to obtain the corresponding physiological and biochemical characteristics. 
     All used biochemical identification tubes were autoclaved before waste disposal.

     III. Use of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 CCTCC NO: M2019851 in Degradation of Different Carbon Sources to Produce Acetic Acid, Ethanol, and Hydrogen 
     Carbon source to be tested 1: glucose. 
     Carbon source to be tested 2: xylose. 
     Carbon source to be tested 3: sucrose. 
     Carbon source to be tested 4: starch 
     Carbon source to be tested 5: carboxymethyl cellulose 
     Carbon source to be tested 6: corn stover 
     Carbon source to be tested 7: corn husk 
     Carbon source to be tested 1 to carbon source to be tested 5 were inorganic carbon sources, and carbon source to be tested 6 and carbon source to be tested 7 were organic carbon sources. 
     Three parallel samples were set for each carbon source to be tested, and results were averaged. A method included the following specific steps: 
     1. The carbon source to be tested was added in a penicillin bottle (100 mL) containing 20 mL of an LB liquid medium, and mixed well to obtain a medium with a concentration of the carbon source to be tested of 10 g/L; the bottle was vacuumized and filled with nitrogen (to maintain an anaerobic environment), and sterilized at 121° C. and 0.1 Mpa for 20 min to obtain a fermentation medium. 
     2. After step 1, the fermentation medium was cooled to room temperature, and 1.5 mL of a seed liquid of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 with an OD 600  nm value of 1.5 was added to obtain a corresponding initial system. 
     3. After step 2, the initial system was cultured at 37° C. and 180 rpm for 24 h to obtain the corresponding fermentation broth. 
     The gas produced during fermentation was detected using gas chromatography. The chromatographic model was SP-3420A, a column model was TDX-1 packed column, a column temperature was 160° C., a detector temperature was 160° C., a heating wire was 180° C., and high-purity nitrogen was used as a carrier gas. 
     The results show that hydrogen is mainly produced during the fermentation culture. The production of hydrogen is shown in row 2 in Table 2.

     4. After step 3, the fermentation broth was centrifuged at 8,000 rpm for 10 min, and a corresponding supernatant was collected. 
     5. After step 4, 50 μL of a 10% (v/v) H 2 SO 4  solution was added to 2 mL of the supernatant, and mixed well; a mixture was filtered with a 0.22 μm water-based needle filter, and a corresponding filtrate was collected. 
     6. The filtrate was detected by HPLC, contents of the lactic acid, acetic acid and ethanol in the corresponding filtrate were obtained according to the corresponding peak area and standard curve, and contents of the lactic acid, acetic acid and ethanol in the corresponding fermentation broth were further obtained. 
     The test results are shown in row 3, row 4 and row 5 in Table 2. The results show that each fermentation broth includes acetic acid, with a highest content of 1.4 g/L when the carbon source is glucose; when the carbon source is glucose, xylose or sucrose, the fermentation broth includes lactic acid and ethanol, which have maximum values of 0.14 g/L and 0.63 g/L when the carbon source is glucose, respectively. 
     The above results show that the  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 CCTCC NO: M2019851 can degrade and utilize different carbon sources (including organic carbon sources and inorganic carbon sources); specifically, the carbon sources can be metabolized into acetic acid, ethanol, lactic acid, and hydrogen. 
     IV. Use of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 CCTCC NO: M2019851 in Degradation of Corn Stover (Rich in Cellulose and Hemicellulose) to Produce Acetic Acid, Ethanol, and Hydrogen 
     Three parallel samples were set for each corn stover concentration, and results were averaged. A method included the following specific steps: 
     1. 0.2 g, 0.4 g, 0.7 g, 1.0 g, and 1.4 g of the corn stover were separately added in a penicillin bottle (100 mL) containing 20 mL of an LB liquid medium, and mixed well; the bottle was vacuumized and filled with nitrogen (to maintain an anaerobic environment), and sterilized at 121° C. and 0.1 Mpa for 20 min to obtain fermentation media with a corn stover concentration of 10 g/L, 20 g/L, 35 g/L, 50 g/L, and 70 g/L in sequence. 
     2. After step 1, the fermentation medium was cooled to room temperature, and 1.5 mL of a seed liquid of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 with an OD 600  nm value of 1.5 was added to obtain a corresponding initial system. 
     3. After step 2, the initial system was cultured at 37° C. and 180 rpm for 24 h to obtain the corresponding fermentation broth. 
     The gas produced during fermentation was detected using gas chromatography. The chromatographic model was SP-3420A, a column model was TDX-1 packed column, a column temperature was 160° C., a detector temperature was 160° C., a heating wire was 180° C., and high-purity nitrogen was used as a carrier gas. 
     The results show that hydrogen is a main product during the fermentation culture. The production and yield of hydrogen is shown in row 2 and row 3 in Table 3.

     4. After step 3, the fermentation broth was centrifuged at 8,000 rpm for 10 min, and a corresponding supernatant was collected. 
     5. After step 4, 50 μL of a 10% (v/v) H 2 SO 4  solution was added to 2 mL of the supernatant, and mixed well; a mixture was filtered with a 0.22 μm water-based needle filter, and a corresponding filtrate was collected. 
     6. The filtrate was detected by HPLC, contents of the acetic acid and ethanol in the corresponding filtrate were obtained according to the corresponding peak area and standard curve, and contents of the acetic acid and ethanol in the corresponding fermentation broth were further obtained. 
     The test results are row 6 and row 7 in Table 3. The results show that each fermentation broth includes acetic acid, and when the concentration of corn stover is 50 g/L, the acetic acid has the highest content; some fermentation broths include ethanol, and when the corn stover concentration is 70 g/L, the ethanol has the highest content. 
     7. After step 3, the fermentation broth was subjected to detection of the degradation rates of cellulose and hemicellulose. 
     The test results are row 4 and row 5 in Table 3. The results show that each corn stover was degraded to a certain extent; when the concentration of corn stover is 70 g/L, the cellulose and hemicellulose each have the highest degradation rate. 
     The above results show that the  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 CCTCC NO: M2019851 can degrade the corn stover; specifically, the corn stover can be metabolize into acetic acid, ethanol, and hydrogen.

     Nitrogen source to be tested 1 to nitrogen source to be tested 5 were organic nitrogen sources, and nitrogen source to be tested 6 to nitrogen source to be tested 9 were inorganic nitrogen sources. 
     Three parallel samples were set for each nitrogen source to be tested, and results were averaged. A method included the following specific steps: 
     1. A penicillin bottle (100 mL) containing 20 mL of a nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested was sterilized at 121° C. and 0.1 Mpa for 20 min to obtain a fermentation medium. 
     The nine nitrogen source aqueous solutions to be tested each had a nitrogen content of 0.127%. Specifically, the peptone in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 1 had a concentration of 10 g/L; the yeast extract powder in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 2 had a concentration of 14.1 g/L; the yeast powder YP-100 in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 3 had a concentration of 17.64 g/L; the yeast powder YP-600 in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 4 had a concentration of 15.88 g/L; the corn steep liquor in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 5 had a concentration of 31.75 g/L; the urea in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 6 had a concentration of 2.72 g/L; the ammonium sulfate in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 7 had a concentration of 5.99 g/L; the ammonium nitrate in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 8 had a concentration of 3.63 g/L; and the triammonium citrate in nitrogen source aqueous solution to be tested 9 had a concentration of 7.35 g/L. 
     2. After step 1, the fermentation medium was cooled to room temperature, and 1.5 mL of a seed liquid of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 with an OD 600.  value of 1.5 was added to obtain an initial system. 
     3. After step 2, the initial system was cultured at 37° C. and 180 rpm for 24 h to obtain the fermentation broth. 
     The gas produced during fermentation was detected using gas chromatography. The chromatographic model was SP-3420A, a column model was TDX-1 packed column, a column temperature was 160° C., a detector temperature was 160° C., a heating wire was 180° C., and high-purity nitrogen was used as a carrier gas. 
     The results show that hydrogen is mainly produced during the fermentation culture. The production of hydrogen is shown in row 2 in Table 4.

     4. After step 3, the fermentation broth was centrifuged at 8,000 rpm for 10 min, and a supernatant was collected. 
     5. After step 4, 50 μL of a 10% (v/v) H 2 SO 4  solution was added to 2 mL of the supernatant, and mixed well; a mixture was filtered with a 0.22 μm water-based needle filter, and a filtrate was collected. 
     6. The filtrate was detected by HPLC, contents of the acetic acid, ethanol, 1,3-propanediol and lactic acid in the filtrate were obtained according to the corresponding peak area and standard curve, and contents of the acetic acid, ethanol, 1,3-propanediol and lactic acid in the corresponding fermentation broth were further obtained. 
     The test results are in row 5 to row 8 in Table 4. The results show that each fermentation broth includes acetic acid, and the acetic acid has the highest content when the yeast extract powder is used as a nitrogen source; part of the fermentation broth includes ethanol, and when the yeast powder YP-100 is used as a nitrogen source, the ethanol has the highest content; part of the fermentation broth includes 1,3-propanediol, and when the corn steep liquor or yeast extract powder is used as a nitrogen source, the 1,3-propanediol has the highest content; and part of the fermentation broth includes lactic acid, and when the yeast powder YP-600 is used as a nitrogen source, the lactic acid has the highest content. 
     7. After step 3, the fermentation broth was subjected to detection of the degradation rates of cellulose and hemicellulose. 
     The test results are row 3 and row 4 in Table 4. The results show that each nitrogen source is degraded to a certain extent; when the corn steep liquor is used as a nitrogen source, cellulose and hemicellulose each have the highest degradation rate. 
     The above results show that  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 CCTCC NO: M2019851 can degrade different nitrogen sources (including organic nitrogen sources and inorganic nitrogen sources); specifically, the nitrogen sources can be degraded into acetic acid, ethanol, 1,3-propanediol, lactic acid, and hydrogen.

     I. Preparation of a Crude Enzyme Solution 
     A single colony of  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 was inoculated into a penicillin bottle containing 30 mL of an anaerobic medium with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as a substrate, and cultured at 37° C. and 180 r/min for 12 h, 24 h, 48 h or 72 h, an obtained fermentation broth was centrifuged at 6,797×g for 5 min, and a supernatant was collected. 
     The supernatant was the crude enzyme solution. 
     II. Determination of Cellulase Activity 
     A buffer during the determination had a pH value of 6.8. 
     1. Preparation of a DNS Solution 
     Solution A: 3.15 g of 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid was accurately weighed into 500 mL of distilled water, 5.0 g of sodium hydroxide was added, and a mixture was stirred in a water bath at 45° C. until the solution was transparent. 
     Solution B: 91.0 g of potassium sodium tartrate, 2.5 g of phenol, and 2.5 g of sodium sulfite were accurately weighed into 300 mL of water, and stirred evenly. 
     The solution A and the solution B were mixed and diluted to 1 L with water to obtain the DNS solution. 
     The DNS solution was filtered into a brown bottle, and stored in the dark for 7 d before use. 
     2. Plotting of a glucose standard curve 
     The endoglucanase could react with a substrate (a 1% CMC-Na solution) to degrade reducing sugar; the reducing sugar could react with a DNS reagent to produce amino compounds, which had an absorbance at 540 nm wavelength. Since the absorbance was proportional to a reducing sugar concentration, a standard curve was plotted with the glucose concentration as the abscissa and the absorbance at 540 nm as the ordinate. 
     0.1 g of glucose dried to a constant weight was accurately weighed into a 100 mL volumetric flask, and diluted with distilled water to 100 mL to obtain a 1 mg/mL glucose standard solution. The solution was added as shown in Table 5 and mixed evenly, boiled in a water bath for 10 min, 20 mL of distilled water was added, and a wavelength at 540 nm was measured by an ultraviolet spectrophotometer.

The results show that the crude enzyme solution prepared in the first step has activities of the exoglucanase, the endoglucanase, and the β-glucosidase, that is, the crude enzyme solution prepared in the first step has a cellulase activity. 
     It can be seen that  Klebsiella pneumoniae  Y7-3 has the ability to secrete cellulase.
