This research aimed to study the diversity of purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB) and to investigate the effect of Hg concentrations in shrimp ponds on PNSB diversity. Amplification of the pufM gene was detected in 13 and 10 samples of water and sediment collected from 16 shrimp ponds in Southern Thailand. In addition to PNSB, other anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (APB) were also observed; purple sulfur bacteria (PSB) and aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (AAPB) although most of them could not be identified. Among identified groups; AAPB, PSB and PNSB in the samples of water and sediment were 25.71, 11.43 and 8.57%; and 27.78, 11.11 and 22.22%, respectively. In both sample types, Roseobacter denitrificans (AAPB) was the most dominant species followed by Halorhodospira halophila (PSB). In addition two genera, observed most frequently in the sediment samples were a group of PNSB (Rhodovulum kholense, Rhodospirillum centenum and Rhodobium marinum). The UPGMA dendrograms showed 7 and 6 clustered groups in the water and sediment samples, respectively. There was no relationship between the clustered groups and the total Hg (HgT) concentrations in the water and sediment samples used (<0.002–0.03 μg/L and 35.40–391.60 μg/kg dry weight) for studying the biodiversity. It can be concluded that there was no effect of the various Hg levels on the diversity of detected APB species; particularly the PNSB in the shrimp ponds. 相似文献

Purple non-sulphur bacteria (PNSB) are phototrophic microorganisms, which increasingly gain attention in plant production due to their ability to produce and accumulate high-value compounds that are beneficial for plant growth. Remarkable features of PNSB include the accumulation of polyphosphate, the production of pigments and vitamins and the production of plant growth-promoting substances (PGPSs). Scattered case studies on the application of PNSB for plant cultivation have been reported for decades, yet a comprehensive overview is lacking. This review highlights the potential of using PNSB in plant production, with emphasis on three key performance indicators (KPIs): fertilization, resistance to stress (biotic and abiotic) and environmental benefits. PNSB have the potential to enhance plant growth performance, increase the yield and quality of edible plant biomass, boost the resistance to environmental stresses, bioremediate heavy metals and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Here, the mechanisms responsible for these attributes are discussed. A distinction is made between the use of living and dead PNSB cells, where critical interpretation of existing literature revealed the better performance of living cells. Finally, this review presents research gaps that remain yet to be elucidated and proposes a roadmap for future research and implementation paving the way for a more sustainable crop production. 相似文献

This study demonstrated for the first time the possibility to remove and partially recover the Ruthenium contained in industrial effluents by using purple non sulfur bacteria (PNSB) as microbial biosorbents. Up to date, the biosorption was only claimed as possible tool for the removal of the platinum-group metals (PGM) but the biosorption of Ru was never experimentally investigated. The PNSBs tested have adsorbed around 40?mg?g (dry biomass)(-1) of the Ru contained in the real industrial effluents. At the end of the bioremoval experiments, the amount of Ru recovered from the biomass ranged from 42?% to 72?% of that adsorbed by PNSB, depending by the characteristics of the Ru effluent used. In any case, the use of microbial sorbents such as PNSB for the biosorption and recovery of Ru can be considered a way to reduce both the costs and the impact on the environment of the mining activities needed to obtain the increasing amounts of this rare and precious metal requested by the industrial activities related to its use. 相似文献

This experiment aimed to decolorize Reactive Red 159 using a high potential of a consortium of purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB) with an application of response surface methodology through a central composite design in open system. The three factors of hydraulic retention time (HRT), sludge retention time (SRT) and dye concentration were applied to the design. The decolorization was operated in an anaerobic sequencing batch reactor until the system reached to a pseudosteady state for 30?cycles in each experiment. The optimal condition was 6,500?mg/L of Reactive Red 159 concentration with 20 days of SRT and 8 days of HRT, achieving dye effluent of 142.62?±?5.35?mg/L, decolorization rate of 264.54?±?7.13?mg/L/h and decolorization efficiency of 97.68?±?0.74%. The results revealed that PNSB efficiently decolorized the high concentration of Reactive Red 159 and they were a high potential of microorganisms for dyes contaminated wastewater treatment. 相似文献

Contribution and relationship between oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation pathways in purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) wastewater treatment under weak light-micro oxygen condition were studied quantitatively. Results showed that under weak light-anaerobic condition, PNSB followed photophosphorylation with the first-order degradation kinetic constant k3 of 0.0585. Under dark-micro aerobic condition, it followed oxidative phosphorylation with k2 of 0.0896. Under weak light-micro oxygen condition, both pathways existed with k1 of 0.108. When light and oxygen both existed, oxidative phosphorylation had a strong competitiveness, it played a dominative role and counted for 92.7% in pollutants degradation, and meanwhile photophosphorylation was restrained by 81.6%. Theoretical analysis showed the common part from coenzyme Q (CoQ) to cytochrome c2 (Cyt c2) in both respiration and photosynthetic chains might cause the competition. When oxygen existed, respiration electron transport would be enhanced. Other potential explanations included that oxygen might damage the pigment and membrane system vital to photophosphorylation. 相似文献

Two arsenic-resistant purple non-sulphur bacteria (PNSB), Q3B and Q3C, were isolated (from industrial contaminated site and paddy fields) and identified by SSU rRNA gene sequencing as Rhodospirillum and Rhodospirillaceae species, respectively. Maximum arsenic reduction by these PNSB was observed in anaerobic conditions. Rhodospirillum sp. Q3B showed 74.92% (v/v) arsenic reduction while Rhodospirillaceae sp. Q3C reduced arsenic up to 76.67% (v/v) in anaerobic conditions. Rhodospirillaceae sp. Q3C was found to contain highest carotenoid content up to 5.6 mg·g−1. Under anaerobic conditions, the isolates were able to respire arsenic in the presence of lactate, citrate, and oxalate. Rhodospirillum sp. Q3B and Rhodospirillaceae sp. Q3C were also found to produce hydrogen gas. Such diverse bacteria can be useful tools for bioremediation purposes. These bacteria can be further exploited and optimized to treat wastewater containing arsenic along with bio-hydrogen production. 相似文献

The transition to sustainable agriculture and horticulture is a societal challenge of global importance. Fertilization with a minimum impact on the environment can facilitate this. Organic fertilizers can play an important role, given their typical release pattern and production through resource recovery. Microbial fertilizers (MFs) constitute an emerging class of organic fertilizers and consist of dried microbial biomass, for instance produced on effluents from the food and beverage industry. In this study, three groups of organisms were tested as MFs: a high-rate consortium aerobic bacteria (CAB), the microalga Arthrospira platensis (‘Spirulina’) and a purple non-sulfur bacterium (PNSB) Rhodobacter sp. During storage as dry products, the MFs showed light hygroscopic activity, but the mineral and organic fractions remained stable over a storage period of 91 days. For biological tests, a reference organic fertilizer (ROF) was used as positive control, and a commercial organic growing medium (GM) as substrate. The mineralization patterns without and with plants were similar for all MFs and ROF, with more than 70% of the organic nitrogen mineralized in 77 days. In a first fertilization trial with parsley, all MFs showed equal performance compared to ROF, and the plant fresh weight was even higher with CAB fertilization. CAB was subsequently used in a follow-up trial with petunia and resulted in elevated plant height, comparable chlorophyll content and a higher amount of flowers compared to ROF. Finally, a cost estimation for packed GM with supplemented fertilizer indicated that CAB and a blend of CAB/PNSB (85%/15%) were most cost competitive, with an increase of 6% and 7% in cost compared to ROF. In conclusion, as bio-based fertilizers, MFs have the potential to contribute to sustainable plant nutrition, performing as good as a commercially available organic fertilizer, and to a circular economy. 相似文献

A challenge for photobiological production of hydrogen gas (H(2)) as a potential biofuel is to find suitable electron-donating feedstocks. Here, we examined the inorganic compound thiosulfate as a possible electron donor for nitrogenase-catalyzed H(2) production by the purple nonsulfur phototrophic bacterium (PNSB) Rhodopseudomonas palustris. Thiosulfate is an intermediate of microbial sulfur metabolism in nature and is also generated in industrial processes. We found that R. palustris grew photoautotrophically with thiosulfate and bicarbonate and produced H(2) when nitrogen gas was the sole nitrogen source (nitrogen-fixing conditions). In addition, illuminated nongrowing R. palustris cells converted about 80% of available electrons from thiosulfate to H(2). H(2) production with acetate and succinate as electron donors was less efficient (40 to 60%), partly because nongrowing cells excreted the intermediary metabolite α-ketoglutarate into the culture medium. The fixABCX operon (RPA4602 to RPA4605) encoding a predicted electron-transfer complex is necessary for growth using thiosulfate under nitrogen-fixing conditions and may serve as a point of engineering to control rates of H(2) production. The possibility to use thiosulfate expands the range of electron-donating compounds for H(2) production by PNSBs beyond biomass-based electron donors. 相似文献

The pineal hormone melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) exerts antigonadotropic effects in some mammalian species. To evaluate the effect of luteinizing hormone (LH) on melatonin release and its synthesizing enzyme activities in pineal glands, pineals of adult female rats undergoing diestrus were organ-cultured in a medium containing 10(-12), 10(-10) or 10(-8) M LH for 6 h. Melatonin release increased significantly in pineals cultured with 10(-12) and 10(-10) M LH, as compared to control values. Similarly, the activity of arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (NAT), the key regulatory enzyme in melatonin biosynthesis, was significantly higher in pineals cultured with 10(-12) and 10(-10) M LH for 6 h, while LH at 10(-8) M had no effect. Although LH at 10(-10) M increased pineal hydroxyindole-O-methyltransferase (HIOMT) activity, which catalyzes the final step of melatonin biosynthesis, LH at 10(-12) and 10(-8) M had no effect. These results demonstrate that at relatively low physiological levels, LH stimulates pineal melatonin synthesis and release, mainly by increasing NAT activity. 相似文献

Radioprotective agents are divided in 3 groups: (1) cystamine, AET, cystaphos, gammaphos, and thiogammaphos with ED50 (the dose that gives a half of the maximal protective effect) of 10(3)-10(1.6) mumol/kg and therapeutic index K = LD50/ED50 = 10(0)-10(1.6); (2) 5-methoxytryptamine, phenylephrine, serotonin, and norepinephrine with ED50 = 10(1)-10(0) mumol/kg and K = 10(1.8)-10(2,6); (3) clonidine and isoprenaline with ED50 = 10(-0.5)-10(-0.8) mumol/kg and K = 10(3)-10(4). Possible causes of these differences and advantages of low ED50 and high K are discussed. 相似文献

A simple and sensitive flow-injection electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) method for the determination of fluoroquinolones was developed. The method is based on the sensitizing effect of fluoroquinolones on the weak ECL signal of electrochemical oxidation of luminol on the surface of the platinum flake electrode in the medium of 0.1 mol/L Na2CO3-NaHCO3. At the optimum experimental conditions, the relative ECL intensity increased linearly with increasing fluoroquinolones concentration, in the ranges 1.0 x 10(-8)-2.0 x 10(-4) g/mL for norfloxacin, 5.0 x 10(-9)-6.0 x 10(-6) g/mL for oxfloxacin, 2.0 x 10(-8)-1.4 x 10(-5) g/mL for ciprofloxacin, 1.0 x 10(-8)-1.4 x 10(-5) g/mL for pefloxacin, and 1.0 x 10(-9)-1.0 x 10(-5) g/mL for enoxacin, with detection limits of 4.0 x 10(-9) g/mL, 2.0 x 10(-9) g/mL, 1.0 x 10(-8) g/mL, 8.0 x 10(-9) g/mL, and 8.0 x 10(-10) g/mL, respectively. The relative standard deviations were all less than 2.5% for the determination of 2.0 x 10(-6) g/mL fluoroquinolones (n = 11). The method was used to determine these medicines in pharmaceutical samples with satisfactory results. 相似文献

Pancreatic segments of 1-, 3-, 5-, 10-day-old and adult female OFA (Sprague-Dowley strain) rats were superfused with graded concentrations of caerulein (10(-12)-10(-7) M) to establish concentration-response relation of amylase release. Furthermore, pancreatic segments of 3-, 5-, 10-day-old and adult rats were superfused with 10(-10) or 10(-8) M caerulein and then superfusion was repeated with 10(-10) M concentration of caerulein to show whether the phenomenon of desensitization of amylase release can be induced in the postnatal period. The 1-day-old pancreas was found practically insensitive to caerulein. The 3- and 5-day-old gland was by one order of magnitude less sensitive (EDmax = 10(-8) M) than the adult pancreas (EDmax = 10(-9) M). Repeated superfusion of the 3- and 5-day-old pancreas with 10(-10) M caerulein after the first 10(-8) M caerulein superfusion failed to cause desensitization, while the same (10(-10) M) repeated superfusion of the 10-day-old adult pancreatic segments after the first 10(-8) M caerulein superfusion evoked desensitization of enzyme release. The authors suggest that the failure of desensitization of enzyme secretion for caerulein may be due to the maturation process of newborn rat pancreatic acinar cells at receptorial and postreceptorial level. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of bradykinin (BK) on airway excitatory nonadrenergic noncholinergic (e-NANC) and cholinergic nerves in vitro. Neural responses were elicited by electrical field stimulation in guinea pig airways in vitro before and after the addition of BK (10(-10)-10(-7) M). Captopril (10(-5) M) and phosphoramidon (10(-6) M) were added to prevent degradation of BK, and all neural responses were measured in the presence of indomethacin (10(-5) M) and propranolol (10(-6) M). BK potentiated e-NANC responses in bronchi in a concentration-dependent manner (10(-10)-10(-7) M) without changing concentration-response curves to exogenously applied substance P (10(-10)-10(-5) M). BK significantly potentiated e-NANC neural constrictor responses by 22 +/- 7% at 10(-8) M (mean +/- SE, n = 5, P < 0.05) and 32 +/- 7% at 10(-7) M (n = 8, P < 0.01), compared with changes in time-matched control tissues (7 +/- 2%, n = 8). The potentiation of e-NANC responses by BK was abolished by pretreatment with a specific B2-receptor antagonist, HOE 140 (10(-7) M). Cholinergic constrictor responses elicited to electrical field stimulation were not affected by the addition of BK (up to 10(-7) M). These results suggest that BK potentiates e-NANC bronchoconstrictor responses prejunctionally via a B2-receptor. 相似文献
