Isolation and characterization of bacteria degrading polychlorinated biphenyls from transformer oil

Polychlorinated biphenyls from transformer oil were degraded in liquid culture under aerobic conditions using a mixed bacterial culture isolated from a transformer oil sample with a high content of polychlorinated biphenyls and other hydrocarbons. Four strains were identified, three of them corresponded to genusBacillus, the other one toErwinia. Bacteria in the transformer oil could remove as much as 65% of polychlorinated biphenyls (88%W/V in the transformer oil). Additional data showed that the two isolated strains ofB. lentus were able to grow on transformer oil and degrade polychlorinated biphenyls by 80 and 83%. Our results provide evidence that microorganisms occurring in transformer oil have the potential to degrade polychlorinated biphenyls.     

Isolation and characterization of surfactant degrading bacteria in a marine environment

Abstract Sea water and sediment samples taken near the coasts of Hyeres bay (France) were used for anionic surfactant titrations with surface and bottom waters and the finest part of sediments. The capacity for surfactant degradation by the 'in situ' microflora was evaluated. By using a selective plating technique 26 strains able to utilize anionic surfactant were isolated from the selected bacterial communities. Their ability to degrade anionic surfactant was verified according to the biodegradation standard method. Isolated strains were characterized by morphological and physiological properties using API 20 NE micro-method. All tested strains were Gram negative, strictly aerobic, rod or helical shaped. Their weak utilization of phenolic substrates suggests that they degrade preferentially the alkyl chain of the surfactant molecule. Biodegradation was more efficient with bacterial communities rather than with any isolated strains. Such observations indicate that complete mineralization involves several other so far non-isolated strains which complete the degradation initiated by the isolated strains.     

Isolation and characterization of thermophilic bacteria capable of degrading dehydroabietic acid.

Using a semi-continuous enrichment method, we isolated two thermophilic bacterial strains, which could completely degrade abietane resin acids, including dehydroabietic acid (DhA). Strain DhA-73, isolated from a laboratory-scale bioreactor treating bleached kraft mill effluent at 55 degrees C, grew on DhA as sole carbon source; while DhA-71, isolated from municipal compost, required dilute tryptic soy broth for growth on DhA. DhA-71 grew on DhA from 30 degrees C to 60 degrees C with maximum growth at 50 degrees C; while, DhA-73 grew on DhA from 37 degrees C to 60 degrees C with maximum growth at 55 degrees C. At 55 degrees C, the doubling times for DhA-71 and DhA-73 were 3.3 and 3.7 h, respectively. DhA-71 and DhA-73 had growth yields of 0.26 and 0.19 g of protein per g of DhA, respectively. During growth on DhA, both strains converted DhA to CO2, biomass, and dissolved organic carbon. Analyses of the 16S-rDNA sequences of these two strains suggest that they belong to two new genera in the Rubrivivax subgroup of the beta subclass of the Proteobacteria. Strains DhA-71 and DhA-73 are the first two bacteria isolated and characterized that are capable of biodegradation of resin acids at high temperatures. This study provided direct evidence for biodegradation of resin acids and feasibility for biotreatment of pulp mill effluent at elevated temperatures.     

Isolation and characterization of lignin‐degrading bacteria from rainforest soils

The deconstruction of lignin to enhance the release of fermentable sugars from plant cell walls presents a challenge for biofuels production from lignocellulosic biomass. The discovery of novel lignin‐degrading enzymes from bacteria could provide advantages over fungal enzymes in terms of their production and relative ease of protein engineering. In this study, 140 bacterial strains isolated from soils of a biodiversity‐rich rainforest in Peru were screened based on their oxidative activity on ABTS, a laccase substrate. Strain C6 (Bacillus pumilus) and strain B7 (Bacillus atrophaeus) were selected for their high laccase activity and identified by 16S rDNA analysis. Strains B7 and C6 degraded fragments of Kraft lignin and the lignin model dimer guaiacylglycerol‐β‐guaiacyl ether, the most abundant linkage in lignin. Finally, LC–MS analysis of incubations of strains B7 and C6 with poplar biomass in rich and minimal media revealed that a higher number of compounds were released in the minimal medium than in the rich one. These findings provide important evidence that bacterial enzymes can degrade and/or modify lignin and contribute to the release of fermentable sugars from lignocellulose. Biotechnol.

Isolation and characterization of phorate degrading soil bacteria of environmental and agronomic significance

Phorate [O,O-diethyl-S-(ethylthio)methyl phosphoradiothioate] degrading bacteria were isolated from agricultural soil and characterized based on their morphological and biochemical characteristics. The selected isolates PS-1, PS-2 and PS-3 were presumptively identified as Rhizobium, Pseudomonas and Proteous species, respectively. The HPLC analysis of phorate in bioaugmented soil revealed its complete disappearance within 40 days. The degradation isotherms of the isolates PS-1, PS-2 and PS-3 suggested time-dependent disappearance of phorate following the first order rate kinetics at the corresponding rate constants of 0.04, 0.05 and 0.04 days-1. Besides, the isolates concurrently exhibited substantial phosphate solubilization, indole acetic acid, and siderophore production. The isolate PS-3 also showed anti-fungal activity against a phytopathogen Fusarium oxysporum. As a result of the multifarious biological properties, the isolates have been suggested to be important bioresource for efficient bioinoculant development.     

Isolation and characterization of novel bacteria degrading polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from polluted Greek soils

Three bacterial strains, designated as Wphe1, Sphe1, and Ophe1, were isolated from Greek soils contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-containing waste from the wood processing, steel, and oil refinery industries. Wphe1, Sphe1, and Ophe1 were characterized and identified as species of Pseudomonas, Microbacterium, and Paracoccus, respectively, based on Gram staining, biochemical tests, phospholipid analysis, FAME analysis, G+C content and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The results of gas chromatography showed that strain Wphe1 degraded naphthalene, phenanthrene, and m-cresol over a wide temperature range; strain Sphe1 was a degrader of phenanthrene and n-alkanes; most interestingly, strain Ophe1 degraded anthracene, phenanthrene, fluorene, fluoranthene, chrysene, and pyrene, as well as cresol compounds and n-alkanes as sole carbon source. This is the first report of a representative of the genus Paracoccus capable of degrading PAHs with such versatility. These three strains may be useful for bioremediation applications.

Isolation and characterization of a phorate degrading bacterium

Aims:  To study the degradation of phorate by a bacterium isolated from phorate-contaminated sites.
Methods and Results:  Ralstonia eutropha strain AAJ1 isolated from soil was found to degrade phorate (supplied as sole carbon source) upto 85% in 10 days in liquid medium. Half-life ( t _½) of phorate in the liquid medium in control (uninoculated) and in experimental (inoculated with R. eutropha , strain AAJ1) samples was recorded as 36·49 and 6·29 days, respectively. Kinetics revealed that phorate degradation depends on time and the reaction follows the first order kinetics. Diethyl dithiophosphate was one of the degradation products, which is markedly less toxic than the parent compound; other degradation products included phorate sulfoxide and phorate sulfone. Release of inorganic phosphates and sulfates indicated the potential of the isolate to further degrade the above-mentioned metabolites to simpler forms. The strain was also found to posses phosphomonoesterase and phosphodiesterase enzymatic activity, which are involved in biodegradation of organophosphorus compounds.
Conclusions:  Ralstonia eutropha AAJ1 could degrade and detoxify phorate upto 85% in 10 days in laboratory conditions.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  The isolate has the potential to be utilized for remediation of phorate-contaminated water and soil.

Isolation and Identification of hydrocarbon degrading bacteria from Ennore creek

The widespread problem caused due to petroleum products, is their discharge and accidental spillage in marine environment proving to be hazardous to the surroundings as well as life forms. Thus remediation of these hydrocarbons by natural decontamination process is of utmost importance. Bioremediation is a non-invasive and cost effective technique for the clean-up of these petroleum hydrocarbons. In this study we have investigated the ability of microorganisms present in the sediment sample to degrade these hydrocarbons, crude oil in particular, so that contaminated soils and water can be treated using microbes. Sediments samples were collected once in a month for a period of twelve months from area surrounding Ennore creek and screened for hydrocarbon degrading bacteria. Of the 113 crude oil degrading isolates 15 isolates were selected and cultivated in BH media with 1% crude oil as a sole carbon and energy source. 3 efficient crude oil bacterial isolates Bacillus subtilis I1, Pseudomonas aeruginosa I5 and Pseudomonas putida I8 were identified both biochemically and phylogenetically. The quantitative analysis of biodegradation is carried out gravimetrically and highest degradation rate, 55% was recorded by Pseudomonas aeruginosa I5 isolate.     

Isolation and characterization of a 3-chlorobenzoate degrading pseudomonad

A pseudomonad has been isolated from sewage, which can utilize 3-chlorobenzoic acid as a sole carbon source. In cells grown on benzoate the enzymes of the -ketoadipic acid pathway are present. Considerable enzymic activities for chlorinated substrates were found in benzoate grown cells only for the oxygenation of 3-chlorobenzoate and the dehydrogenation of 3- and 5-chloro-3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-diol-1-carboxylic acid. 3-Chlorobenzoate grown cells show additional high activities for the turnover of 3- and 4-chlorocatechols and chloromuconic acids.Abbreviations Used DHB (-)-3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-diol-1-carboxylic acid (derived from the trivial name, dihydrodihydroxybenzoate) - 3- and 5-Cl-DHB correspondingly 3- and 5-chloro-3,5-cyclohexadiene-1,2-diol-1-carboxylic acid     

Isolation and characterization of oil-desulphurizing bacteria

The objective of this study was to isolate local bacterial strains capable of removing sulphur from oil fractions without degrading the hydrocarbon. Oil biodesulphurization is an important step in combating pollution problems emanating from burning fossil fuels. Organisms which survive on oil are plentiful in local Kuwaiti soils; however, those that selectively only attack the carbon–sulphur bond are more difficult to find. Three strains were isolated based on their ability to use dibenzothiophene (DBT) as a sole source of sulphur for growth at 30 °C. Similar to other biodesulphurization organisms, the strains convert DBT to [2-hydroxybiphenyl (2-HBP) as detected by gas chromatography (GC). The specific desulphurization activity was in the range 5–13 mol 2-HBP/g-cell × h. Identification of the strains, based on 16 rRNA gene sequence similarity, showed the strains to be Rhodococcus erythropolis and Rhodococcus globerulus. The biodesulphurization activity was enhanced by promoting oxidore-ductase enzyme co-expression through the addition of a carbon source. The desulphurization was limited by the availability of DBT to the organism. Interfacial mass transfer through the aqueous-organic layer was confirmed to be a limiting factor.     

Isolation and characterization of dibenzofuran-degrading bacteria

Two bacterial strains capable of utilizing dibenzofuran (DF) as a sole carbon source were isolated from soil samples of reclaimed land. The strains designated HL1 and HL7 were identified as Klebsiella sp. and Sphingomonas sp., respectively, on the basis of biochemical characteristics and the sequences of the 16S ribosomal DNA. Sphingomonas sp. strain HL7 degraded non-, mono- and also dichlorinated DF and dibenzo-p-dioxin (DD). Klebsiella sp. strain HL1 was able to degrade non- and monochlorinated DFs and DDs, but not dichlorinated ones. The metabolites formed from DF by strains HL1 and HL7 were similar to those by dioxin-degrading bacteria Sphingomonas sp. strain RW1 except for salicylic acid and catechol. Strain HL7 had a gene homologous to that encoding the dioxin dioxygenase alpha-subunit (dxnA1) gene of Sphingomonas sp. strain RW1. However, Southern hybridization analysis showed that the size of an EcoRV-digested genomic fragment involving the dioxin dioxygenase gene of strain HL7 was smaller than that of strain RW1, and that strain HL1 did not have the homologous gene. Strains HL1 and HL7 provided useful information regarding the dioxygenase genes.     

Isolation and preliminary characterization of a 2-chlorobenzoate degrading Pseudomonas

Pseudomonas sp. strain B-300, which is able to utilize 2-chlorobenzoic acid, was isolated from a soil sample by enrichment culture. This strain was shown to grow on 2-chlorobenzoic acid and to completely degrade the substrate with concomitant chlorine ion release. Concentrations of 2-chlorobenzoic acid higher than 0.5% (w/v) were toxic to the cells. Our study also suggested that in the presence of glucose, 2-chlorobenzoic acid is converted to catechol or chlorocatechol; these are in turn transformed to muconic and chloromuconic acid, respectively, suggesting a repression by glucose of some of the degradation pathway enzymes. A similar scheme was already described for 3-chlorobenzoate degradation by pAC25 plasmid.     

Isolation and genetic identification of PAH degrading bacteria from a microbial consortium

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH; naphthalene, anthracene and phenanthrene) degrading microbial consortium C2PL05 was obtained from a sandy soil chronically exposed to petroleum products, collected from a petrochemical complex in Puertollano (Ciudad Real, Spain). The consortium C2PL05 was highly efficient degrading completely naphthalene, phenanthrene and anthracene in around 18 days of cultivation. The toxicity (Microtox™ method) generated by the PAH and by the intermediate metabolites was reduced to levels close to non-toxic in almost 40 days of cultivation. The identified bacteria from the contaminated soil belonged to γ-proteobacteria and could be include in Enterobacter and Pseudomonas genus. DGGE analysis revealed uncultured Stenotrophomonas ribotypes as a possible PAH degrader in the microbial consortium. The present work shows the potential use of these microorganisms and the total consortium for the bioremediation of PAH polluted areas since the biodegradation of these chemicals takes place along with a significant decrease in toxicity.
