An analytical method for the assessment of the exposure of workers to the pesticide propoxur through biological monitoring has been developed. This study was part of a survey of occupational exposure to pesticides used in greenhouses for the growing of ornamental plants. In order to assess the actual absorbed amount of propoxur in the body, an analytical method for its metabolite 2-isopropoxyphenol in urine was required. This led to the development of a gas chromatographic—mass spectrometric assay involving hydrolysis and solvent extraction. A mass-selective detector, operated in single-ion mode, provides a selective and sensitive quantification of 2-isopropoxyphenol with a detection limit of 6 μg/l. The method has been validated with respect to the hydrolysis of urine samples, analytical recovery of 2-isopropoxyphenol, stability of its conjugates, limit of detection, background and precision. The analytical recovery from spiked urine was over 95%. 2-Isopropoxyphenol was excreted in urine as a conjugate and was stable for at least seven months when stored at − 20°C. It was not detected in urine from non-exposed persons. Between-day coefficients of variation were 20, 10, 7 and 4% for concentrations of 15, 29, 150 and 213 μg/l, respectively. Measured as 2-isopropoxyphenol, ca. 80% of an orally administered dose of propoxur was excreted in urine within 10 h. 相似文献

Studies were carried out to understand parallel survival of two strains when cultivated as co-culture on a single carbon source in continuous cultivation. Strains used were Pseudomonas sp. strain CF600 that is reported for degradation of phenol; and HKR1 a lab strain, which was isolated from a site contaminated with phenol. In continuous cultivation Pseudomonas sp. CF600 showed an accumulation of colored intermediate, 2-hydroxy muconic semialdehyde (HMS), when fed with phenol as a sole source of carbon under dissolved oxygen limiting condition (40% saturation level). Under the same cultivation condition when it was co-cultured with strain HKR1, complete degradation of phenol was observed with no accumulation of intermediate. Different dilution rates (0.03, 0.15, and 0.30) were set in the bioreactor during cultivation. It was also observed that both the strains follow a typical cell density ratio of 1:18 as strain HKR1: Pseudomonas sp. CF600 irrespective of the dilution rates used in the study to favor degradation of phenol. Pseudomonas sp. CF600 is reported to degrade phenol via a plasmid-encoded pathway (pVI150). The enzymes for this meta-cleavage pathway are clustered on 15 genes encoded by a single operon, the dmp operon. PCR using primers from the different catabolic loci of dmp operon, demonstrated that the strain HKR1 follows a different metabolic pathway for intermediate utilization. 相似文献

Strain S-36, a marine Pseudomonas sp., was grown under manganese limitation in continuous culture. At dilution rates below a maximal growth rate of 0.066 h-1, the rate at which the organism fixed CO2 into macromolecules was equal to the cell carbon production rate. In addition, the total amount of cell carbon or CO2 fixed at steady-state was in proportion to the amount of energy available from the oxidation of Mn2+ in the medium. These data suggest that the organism can grow by obtaining the energy for CO2 fixation from manganese oxidation. 相似文献

A bacterium tentatively identified as a Pseudomonas sp. was isolated from a laboratory aquifer column in which toluene was degraded under denitrifying conditions. The organism mineralized toluene in pure culture in the absence of molecular oxygen. In carbon balance studies using [ring-UL-14C]toluene, more than 50% of the radioactivity was recovered as 14CO2. Nitrate and nitrous oxide served as electron acceptors for toluene mineralization. The organism was also able to degrade m-xylene, benzoate, benzaldehyde, p-cresol, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzoate and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid in the absence of molecular oxygen. 相似文献

A bacterium strain BERT, which utilizes primary long-chain alkylamines as nitrogen, carbon and energy source, was isolated
from activated sludge. This rod-shaped motile, Gram-negative strain was identified as a Pseudomonas sp. The substrate spectrum of this Pseudomonas strain BERT includes primary alkylamines with alkyl chains ranging from C3 to C18, and dodecyl-1,3-diaminopropane. Amines with alkyl chains ranging from 8 to 14 carbons were the preferred substrates. Growth
on dodecanal, dodecanoic acid and acetic acid and simultaneous adaptation studies indicated that this bacterium initiates
degradation through a Calkyl–N cleavage. The cleavage of alkylamines to the respective alkanals in Pseudomonas strain BERT is mediated by a PMS-dependent alkylamine dehydrogenase. This alkylamine dehydrogenase produces stoichiometric
amounts of ammonium from octylamine. The PMS-dependent alkylamine was found to oxidize a broad range of long-chain alkylamines.
PMS-dependent long-chain aldehyde dehydrogenase activity was also detected in cell-free extract of Pseudomonas strain BERT grown on octylamine. The proposed pathway for the oxidation of alkylamine in strain BERT proceeds from alkylamine
to alkanal, and then to the fatty acid. 相似文献

Biodegradation of 4-chlorobiphenyl by Micrococcus species 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A Micrococcus sp., isolated by enrichment culture, grew on 4-chlorobiphenyl at 2 g/l as sole carbon source and produced 4-chlorobenzoic acid in the culture medium as a dead-end metabolite. The organism degraded 4-chlorobiphenyl by 2,3-dihydroxylation followed by meta-ring cleavage to yield 4-chlorobenzoate and carbon fragments for cell growth. 相似文献

A bacterial consortium capable of degrading chloroaromatic compounds was isolated from pulp and paper mill effluents by selective
enrichment on 4-chlorobenzoic acid as sole source of carbon and energy. The four different bacterial isolates obtained from
bacterial consortium were identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa AY792969 (A), P.
aeruginosa PA01 NC (B), Pseudomonas sp. ZZ5 DQ113452 (C) and Pseudomonas sp. AY762360 (D) based on their morphological and biochemical characteristics and by phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA
gene sequences. These bacterial isolates were found to be versatile in degrading a variety of chloroaromatic compounds including
fluoro- and iodobenzoic acids. P. aeruginosa PA01 NC utilized 4-chlorobenzoic acid at 2 g/l as growth substrate. Biodegradation studies have revealed that this organism
degraded 4-chlorobenzoic acid through 4-chlorocatechol which was further metabolized by ortho-cleavage pathway and the dechlorination occurred after the ring-cleavage. 相似文献

A study was done of the pathways of nitrogen assimilation in the facultative methylotrophsPseudomonas MA andPseudomonas AM1, with ammonia or methylamine as nitrogen sources and with methylamine or succinate as carbon sources. When methylamine was the sole carbon and/or nitrogen source, both organisms possessed enzymes of the glutamine synthetase/glutamate synthase pathway, but when ammonia was the nitrogen sourcePseudomonas AM1 also synthesized glutamate dehydrogenase with a pH optimum of 9.0, andPseudomonas MA elaborated both glutamate dehydrogenase (pH optimum 7.5) and alanine dehydrogenase (pH optimum 9.0). Glutamate dehydrogenase and glutamate synthase from both organisms were solely NADPH-dependent; alanine dehydrogenase was NADH-dependent. No evidence was obtained for regulation of glutamine synthetase by adenylylation in either organism, nor did glutamine synthetase appear to regulate glutamate dehydrogenase synthesis. 相似文献

Summary Wild-type cultures of Aspergillus niger produced a basal level of β-fructofuranosidase on glucose of 1 IU l−1 h−1. In contrast, a catabolite-derepressed mutant strain of the same organism produced a markedly higher level (25 IU l−1 h−1) of this enzyme when grown on the same carbon source. Wheat bran induced both the wild type (252 IU l−1 h−1) and the mutant strain (516 IU l−1 h−1) to produce 252- to 516-fold higher levels of this enzyme than was observed with the wild-type grown on glucose and was the best carbon source. When corn steep liquor served as a nitrogen source, the wild-type organism showed a higher activity of enzyme on monosaccharides and disaccharides comparable to that produced by corncobs in the basal medium and that mutant was a potentially improved (> 2-fold) organism for the production of β-fructofuranosidase on all carbon sources. Enhanced substrate consumption and product formation kinetic parameters suggest that the mutant organism may be exploited for bulk production of this useful enzyme. 相似文献

A bacterial strain capable of utilizing pentachlorophenol (PCP) as sole source of carbon and energy for growth was isolated from enrichment cultures containing 100 mg/l PCP in a mineral salts medium inoculated with contaminated soil from a lumber treatment waste site. The isolate, designated strain SR3, was identified as a species ofPseudomonas by virtue of its physiological and biochemical characteristics. Mineralization of PCP byPseudomonas sp. strain SR3 was demonstrated by loss of detectable PCP from growth medium, stoichiometry of chloride release (5 equivalents of chloride per mole of PCP), and formation of biomass consistent with the concentration of PCP mineralized. PCP-induced cells of strain SR3 showed elevated rates of oxygen consumption in the presence of PCP, and with different chlorinated phenols, with complete degradation of 2,3,5,6-, 2,3,6-, 2,4,6-, 2,4-, and 2,6-chloro-substituted phenols. Concentrations of PCP up to 175 mg/liter supported growth of this organism, but maximal rates of PCP removal were observed at a PCP concentration of 100 mg/liter. Based on its degradative properties,Pseudomonas sp. strain SR3 appears to have utility in bioremediation of soil and water contaminated with PCP.Abbreviations DCP

Summary Baygon (2-isopropoxyphenyl-N-methylcarbamate) inhibited nitrification for 4 weeks at 25 and for 16 weeks at 1250 ppm. Ammonification
of peptone was stimulated by baygon. Oxidation of ammonium formed from peptone was not complete in 16 weeks at 1250 ppm. of
baygon. Solubilization of tricalcium phosphate was not affected by baygon. CO2 production from soil was depressed for 10 days. Glucose addition caused the higher depression of CO2 production after a week. A Pseudomonas sp. degraded baygon to 2-isopropoxyphenol. re]19730507 相似文献

Summary. Pseudomonas sp. strain phDV1, being a phenol degrading bacterium, has been found to utilize phenol as sole carbon source via the meta pathway. Blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (BN-PAGE) is widely used for the analysis of oligomeric state and
molecular mass non-dissociated protein complexes. In this study, a number of proteomic techniques were used to investigate
the oligomeric state enzymes involved in the aromatic degradation pathway. In particular, the Pseudomonas sp. strain phDV1 proteome was monitored under two different growth substrate conditions, using glucose or phenol as sole
carbon source. The protein complexes map was compared by BN-PAGE after fractionation by sucrose density centrifugation of
the cell extracts. Multiple differences were detected. Further, analysis and identification of the subunit composition of
these complexes was carried out using MALDI-TOF MS, allowing the identification of 49 proteins. Additionally, functional information
regarding protein–protein interactions was assembled, by coupling 2-D BN-PAGE with MALDI-TOF MS. Application of this functional
proteomics method resulted in an higher number of the identified proteins. 相似文献

Aims: The aim of this study was to isolate a thermotolerant micro‐organism that produces polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) composed of medium‐chain‐length (mcl) HA units from a biodiesel fuel (BDF) by‐product as a carbon source. Methods and Results: We successfully isolated a thermotolerant micro‐organism, strain SG4502, capable to accumulate mcl‐PHA from a BDF by‐product as a carbon source at a cultivation temperature of 45°C. The strain could also produce mcl‐PHA from acetate, octanoate and dodecanoate as sole carbon sources at cultivation temperatures up to 55°C. Taxonomic studies and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain SG4502 was phylogenetically affiliated with species of the genus Pseudomonas. This study is the first report of PHA synthesis by a thermotolerant Pseudomonas. Conclusions: A novel thermotolerant bacterium capable to accumulate mcl‐PHA from a BDF by‐product was successfully isolated. Significance and Impact of the Study: A major issue regarding industrial production of microbial PHAs is their much higher production cost compared with conventional petrochemical‐based plastic materials. Especially significant are the cost of a fermentative substrate and the running cost to maintain a temperature suitable for microbial growth. Thus, strain SG4502, isolated in this study, which assimilates BDF by‐product and produces PHA at high temperature, would be very useful for practical application in industry. 相似文献

Aims: The objective was to study the growth of Pseudomonas in a food product (tofu) where it typically occurs as a spoilage organism, and when this product is stored under modified atmosphere. Methods and Results: A Pseudomonas strain was isolated from the endogenous microflora of tofu. Tofu was inoculated with the strain, packaged in different gas conditions (air, 100% N2, 30% CO2/70% N2 or 100% CO2) and stored under refrigerated conditions. Microbial loads and the headspace gas composition were monitored during storage. Conclusions: The strain was capable of growing in atmospheres containing no or limited amounts of oxygen and increased amounts of carbon dioxide. Even when 100% CO2 was used, growth could not be inhibited completely. Significance and Impact of Study: In contrast to the general characteristics of the genus Pseudomonas (strictly aerobic, highly sensitive to CO2), it should not be expected in the food industry that removing oxygen from the food package and increasing the carbon dioxide content, combined with cold storage, will easily avoid spoilage by Pseudomonas species. Guarantee of hygienic standards and combination of strategies with other microbial growth inhibiting measures should be implemented. 相似文献

Pseudomonas sp. strain NyZ402, a native soil organism that grows on para-nitrophenol (PNP), was genetically engineered for the simultaneous degradation of methyl parathion (MP) and ortho-nitrophenol (ONP) by integrating mph (methyl parathion hydrolase gene) from Pseudomonas sp. strain WBC-3 and onpAB (ONP 2-monooxygenase and ONP o-benzoquinone reductase genes) from Alcaligenes sp. strain NyZ215 into the genome of strain NyZ402. Methyl parathion hydrolase (MPH), ONP 2-monooxygenase (OnpA) and o-benzoquinone reductase (OnpB) were constitutively expressed in the engineered strain NyZ-MO. Strain NyZ-MO was free of exogenous
antibiotic resistance gene markers and the introduced genes were genetically stable. Degradation experiments showed that strain
NyZ-MO could utilize MP or ONP as the sole carbon and energy source, and mineralize 0.1 mM MP–0.1 mM ONP simultaneously. This
method may serve as a useful strategy for the construction of engineered strains in the degradation of multiple environmental
pollutants. 相似文献

Bacterial degradation of benzalphthalide 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
APseudomonas sp., isolated by an enrichment culture technique, grew on benzalphthalide at up to 1 g/l as sole carbon source. Cells oxidized both benzalphthalide ando-phthalate at enhanced rates compared with glucose-grown cells, but catechol, gentisate and protocatechuate were oxidized slowly and equally by benzalphthalide-and glucose-grown cells. 相似文献

The oxidation of octane and decane by a gram-negative bacterium, identified as aPseudomonas species, has been studied. The same rates of growth of the organism were observed in culture media supplemented with alkanes as sole source of carbon, irrespective of whether growth had previously taken place in media containing either octane or glucose. However, only cells previously grown in medium supplemented with octane oxidised this paraffin in the Warburg apparatus. Although 1-octene was not utilised for growth, the rate of oxidation of the olefin by resting cells was the same whether these were previously grown with octoic acid or with octane as sole source of carbon. Small amounts of 1-octanol and 1-octanal were oxidised by resting cells, but at higher concentrations respiration was inhibited.The organism was grown at the expense of radioactive decane (l-C14) and at least half of the added substrate was oxidised to carbon dioxide. No evidence was found for the accumulation of fatty acids either in the cells or in the culture medium. 相似文献

Pseudomonas sp. strain HBP1 Prp, a mutant of strain HBP1 that was originally isolated on 2-hydroxybiphenyl, was able to grow on 2-sec-butylphenol as the sole carbon and energy source. During growth on 2-sec-butylphenol, 2-methylbutyric acid transiently accumulated in the culture medium. Its concentration reached a maximum after 20 hours and was below detection limit at the end of the growth experiment. The first three enzymes of the degradation pathway — a NADH-dependent monooxygenase, a metapyrocatechase, and ameta-fission product hydrolase — were partially purified. The product of the the monooxygenase reaction was identified as 3-sec-butylcatechol by mass spectrometry. This compound was a substrate for the metapyrocatechase and was converted to 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-7-methylnona-2,4-dienoic acid which was identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of its trimethylsilyl-derivative. The cofactor independentmeta-cleavage product hydrolase used 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-7-methylnona-2,4-dienoic acid as a substrate. All three enzymes showed highest activities for 2-hydroxybiphenyl and its metabolites, respectively, indicating that 2-sec-butylphenol is metabolized via the same pathway as 2-hydroxybiphenyl. 相似文献

Isolation of bacterial consortia for degradation of p-nitrophenol from agricultural soil 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
bacterial consortium has been isolated containing Pseudomonas spp. strains S1 and S2, which was able to degrade p‐nitrophenol (PNP). The strains were isolated from agricultural soil contaminated with organophosphorus pesticides. Pseudomonas spp. strain S2 could convert p‐nitrophenol to 4‐nitrocatechol (4NC) after pre‐exposure to phenol, when PNP was used as the only carbon source in the medium. Pseudomonas spp. strain S2, when mixed with strain S1 in the ratio 1:5 respectively, decolorised PNP completely. 相似文献
