The method of continuous thermophilic composting (CTC) remarkably shortened the active composting cycle and enhanced the compost
stability. Effects of CTC on the quantities of bacteria, with a comparison to the traditional composting (TC) method, were
explored by plate count with incubation at 30, 40 and 50°C, respectively, and by quantitative PCR targeting the universal
bacterial 16S rRNA genes and the Bacillus 16S rRNA genes. The comparison of cultivatable or uncultivatable bacterial numbers indicated that CTC might have increased
the biomass of bacteria, especially Bacillus spp., during the composting. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis was employed to investigate the effects
of CTC on bacterial diversity, and a community dominated by fewer species was detected in a typical CTC run. The analysis
of sequence and phylogeny based on DGGE indicated that the continuously high temperature had changed the structure of bacterial
community and strengthened the mainstay role of the thermophilic and spore-forming Bacillus spp. in CTC run. 相似文献

Despite advancing knowledge about the functional role of actinomycetes in degrading lignocellulosic materials, definitive knowledge concerning the diversity and dynamics of the actinomycetal community in composting is still lacking. In this study, real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) coupled with denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and clone library construction were applied to investigate actinomycetal diversity and dynamics in a pilot-scale composting. Quantitative real-time PCR data revealed that actinomycetes accounted for 18–86 % of bacteria and that the fraction peaked during the maturing phase, indicating that Actinobacteria were critical to the compost ecosystem. Qualitatively, actinomycetal communities displayed distinct temporal variations during composting. Fourteen distinct genera of actinomycetes and an unknown group were observed in manure composts. Redundancy analysis indicated that temperature exerted an influence over the actinomycetal communities. Specifically, pathogenic Corynebacterium species dominated in the initial phase, whereas the genera Saccharomonospora and Thermobifida were abundant in the thermophilic phase. In maturing composts, mesophilic Micrococcineae members were most prevalent. The dominant thermophiles along with Micrococcineae may jointly facilitate the degradation of lignocellulosic materials during composting. Together, our research revealed a more detailed ecological and potential functional role for actinomycetes in the compost ecology. 相似文献

Microbial succession during a composting process as evaluated by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Microbial succession during a laboratory-scale composting process of garbage was analysed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) combined with measurement of physicochemical parameters such as temperature, pH, organic acids, total dissolved organic carbon and water-soluble humic substance. From the temperature changes, a rapid increase from 25 to 58 degrees C and then a gradual decrease, four phases were recognized in the process as follows; mesophilic (S), thermophilic (T), cooling (C) and maturing (M). The polymerase chain reaction-amplified 16S rDNA fragments with universal (907R) and eubacterial (341F with GC clamp) primers were subjected to DGGE analysis. Consequently, the DGGE band pattern changed during the composting process. The direct sequences from DGGE bands were related to those of known genera in the DNA database. The microbial succession determined by DGGE was summarized as follows: in the S phase some fermenting bacteria, such as lactobacillus, were present with the existing organic acids; in the T phase thermophilic bacillus appeared and, after the C phase, bacterial populations were more complex than in previous phases and the phylogenetic positions of those populations were relatively distant from strains so far in the DNA database. Thus, the DGGE method is useful to reveal microbial succession during a composting process. 相似文献

The behavior of tetracyclines and their degradation products during swine manure composting 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
The purposes of this study were to investigate the behavior of three tetracyclines including chlortetracycline (CTC), oxytetracycline (OTC) and tetracycline (TC) and their degradation products in a pilot scale swine manure composting, and also to study the degradation kinetics of CTC, OTC and TC. During the pilot scale composting, CTC, OTC and TC were degraded by 74%, 92% and 70%, respectively. Several degradation products were found like 4-epitetracycline (ETC), 4-epioxytetracycline (EOTC), 4-epichlortetracycline (ECTC), demeclocycline (DMCTC) and anhydrotetracycline (ATC). Both the simple and the adjusted first-order kinetic models successfully fit the degradation process of CTC, OTC and TC during the composting, but the adjusted first-order kinetic model fit much better with the calculated half-lives of 8.2, 1.1 and 10.0 days, respectively. 相似文献

DGGE and T-RFLP Analysis of Bacterial Succession during Mushroom Compost Production and Sequence-aided T-RFLP Profile of Mature Compost 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The amount of button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) harvested from compost is largely affected by the microbial processes taking place during composting and the microbes inhabiting
the mature compost. In this study, the microbial changes during the stages of this specific composting process were monitored,
and the dominant bacteria of the mature compost were identified to reveal the microbiological background of the favorable
properties of the heat-treated phase II mushroom compost. 16S ribosomal deoxyribonucleic acid (rDNA)-based denaturing gradient
gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) molecular fingerprinting methods
were used to track the succession of microbial communities in summer and winter composting cycles. DNA from individual DGGE
bands were reamplified and subjected to sequence analysis. Principal component analysis of fingerprints of the composting
processes showed intensive changes in bacterial community during the 22-day procedure. Peak temperature samples grouped together
and were dominated by Thermus thermophilus. Mature compost patterns were almost identical by both methods (DGGE, T-RFLP). To get an in-depth analysis of the mature
compost bacterial community, the sequence data from cultivation of the bacteria and cloning of environmental 16S rDNA were
uniquely coupled with the output of the environmental T-RFLP fingerprints (sequence-aided T-RFLP). This method revealed the
dominance of a supposedly cellulose-degrading consortium composed of phylotypes related to Pseudoxanthomonas, Thermobifida, and Thermomonospora. 相似文献

The actinomycetal community structures in marine and freshwater environments (the Pacific Ocean, East China Sea, Tokyo Bay, and Arakawa River) were investigated by a culture-independent molecular method to clarify spatial and seasonal distributions. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was extracted from environmental water samples, and a community analysis was carried out on polymerase chain reaction-amplified 16S ribosomal DNA. The amplified DNA fragments were analyzed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and nonmetric multidimensional scaling analysis, followed by sequencing analysis. The actinomycetal community structures were different at each station in the Pacific Ocean, the East China Sea, Tokyo Bay, and Arakawa River, and different populations predominated in each area. There were vertical variations in actinomycetal communities in the Pacific Ocean and East China Sea between the surface and 100-m depth, but communities were similar from 200- to 1,000-m depths. There were also distinct seasonal variations in communities in Tokyo Bay. Phylogenetic analysis of DNA fragments recovered from DGGE bands revealed that most of the predominant actinomycetal strains were uncultured and were quite different from well known culturable strains, such as the Streptomyces, Micromonospora, Microbispora, Salinispora, and Actinoplanes groups. These results suggest that the marine environment is an attractive target for discovering new actinomycetal populations producing bioactive compounds and that sampling depth and season are important considerations for isolating various populations effectively. 相似文献

AIMS: To evaluate the ammonia-assimilating abilities of micro-organisms isolated from cattle manure composting processes and to determine the distribution of cultivable species of ammonia-assimilating micro-organisms in microbial communities during the composting processes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Compost samples were collected from four stages of treatment. Trypto soya agar was used for the isolation of ammonia-assimilating aerobes. Many of the isolates showed high ammonia-assimilating ability in a medium containing basal components and a compost extract. Partial 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing showed that the cultivable species of highly efficient ammonia-assimilating isolates changed during the composting process. The community structure of micro-organisms and actinomycetes was analysed by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). Two species of actinomycetes identified by PCR-DGGE coincided with those found among the cultured isolates. CONCLUSIONS: Ammonia-assimilating micro-organisms obtained by the cultivation method were not predominant in the microbial community during the composting process: however certain cultured actinomycetes were members of predominant species in the actinomycetes community. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Ammonia assimilation by micro-organisms is one of the important mechanisms for ammonia retention in the composting process. Cultivable actinomycetes are a means for preventing ammonia emission from the composting process. 相似文献

The microbiology of pine bark composting: An Electron-microscope and physiological study 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
An electron microscope study was conducted on samples of pine bark taken from stacks during consecutive stages of composting. It was found using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) that bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi were present in relatively low numbers on the bark surface before composting was initiated. After addition of urea and water to bark heaps, microbial numbers rose, particularly the bacterial fraction. A large number of actinomycetes were seen below the surface of the bark as composting progressed. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of bark in the late stages of composting demonstrated the presence of a variety of microbes within the bark cells. The microorganisms were seen, using SEM, to be degrading the surface of the bark chips, and, using TEM, to be attached to the lignified cell walls. Physiological studies on bacteria isolated at different stages of composting showed they had a number of enzymes such as carboxymethyl cellulase that could aid in the degradation of pine bark. The isolates consisted of Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains, some of which were spore formers. Most of the isolates, including some Gram-negative non-sporing bacteria, were able to grow over a wide range of temperatures from 30 to 60°C, and, in some cases, 70°C. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the rpoB gene as a biomarker for PCR-DGGE microbial analyses using soil DNA from the Cerrado, Brazil. METHODS: DNA extraction from soil was followed by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) amplification of rpoB and 16S rRNA genes. PCR products were compared by Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE) to compare gene/community profiles. RESULTS: The rpoB DGGE profiles comprised fewer bands than the 16S rDNA profiles and were easier to delineate and therefore to analyse. Comparison of the community profiles revealed that the methods were complementary. CONCLUSIONS, SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The gene for the beta subunit of the RNA polymerase, rpoB, is a single copy gene unlike 16S rDNA. Multiple copies of 16S rRNA genes in bacterial genomes complicate diversity assessments made from DGGE profiles. Using the rpoB gene offers a better alternative to the commonly used 16S rRNA gene for microbial community analyses based on DGGE. 相似文献

Spatial differences in bacterioplankton composition along the Catalan coast (NW Mediterranean) assessed by molecular fingerprinting 总被引:13,自引:1,他引:12
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene fragments was used to compare surface bacterioplankton assemblages along the Catalan coast (NW Mediterranean). Samples from three coastal stations were compared with samples taken inside the Barcelona harbour and open sea samples taken during a cruise. The bacterial assemblage of each sample showed a characteristic and reproducible DGGE fingerprint. Between 17 and 35 bands were detected in each sample, and about 40% of the bands accounted for more than 80% of the band intensity in each sample. The presence of bands as well as their relative intensity was used to compare bacterial assemblages. Clear differences between the harbour samples and the coastal samples were evident during all periods. Marked temporal changes in the bacterial assemblages were detectable for the coastal sites, suggesting seasonal succession of coastal bacterioplankton. During each season, two stations presented a very similar bacterial composition (Barcelona and Masnou) whereas bacterial assemblages in Blanes were slightly different. These differences were consistent with the different hydrography of the area. Diversity indices calculated from DGGE fingerprints were relatively similar for all samples analysed, even though harbour samples were expected to present lower diversity values. 相似文献

Profiling of a microbial community under confined conditions in a fed-batch garbage decomposer by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In order to determine the conditions for the maximum performance of a fed-batch composting (FBC) reactor, polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) was used to analyze the microbial communities established under the confined conditions of moisture content and environmental temperature. To evaluate the effects of microbial community structures on the performance of FBC reactors, degradation experiments using small-scale reactors and model waste were conducted under confined environmental conditions. A high degradation rate was observed under a wide range of MC conditions (30-60%) and at higher than usual temperatures (30-50 degrees C). The microbial communities that formed in the experimental FBC reactors were analyzed by DGGE of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA genes. The DGGE banding patterns at the same level as the degradation rates were similar even if the environmental conditions were different. Sequence analysis of the DGGE bands revealed the primary microbes which act in the reactor. 相似文献

Microorganisms inhabit very different soil habitats in the ice-free areas of Antarctica, playing a major role in nutrient cycling in cold environments. We studied the soil characteristics and the dominant bacterial composition from nine different soil profiles located on Livingston Island (maritime Antarctica). The total carbon (TC) and total nitrogen (TN) values were high for the vegetated soils, decreasing with depth, whereas the values for the mineral soils were generally low. Soil pH was more acidic for moss-covered soils and neutral to alkaline for mineral soils. Numbers of culturable heterotrophic bacteria were higher at vegetated sites, but significant numbers were also detectable in carbon-depleted soils. Patterns of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) revealed a highly heterogeneous picture throughout the soil profiles. Subsequent sequencing of DGGE bands revealed in total 252 sequences that could be assigned to 114 operational taxonomic units, showing the dominance of members of the Bacteroidetes and Acidobacteria. The results of phospholipid fatty acid analysis showed a lack of unsaturated fatty acids for most of the samples. Samples with a prevalence of unsaturated over saturated fatty acids were restricted to several surface samples. Statistical analysis showed that the dominant soil bacterial community composition is most affected by TC and TN contents and soil physical factors such as grain size and moisture, but not pH. 相似文献

Litter from the chicken industry can present several environmental challenges, including offensive odors and runoff into waterways leading to eutrophication. An economically viable solution to the disposal of waste from chicken houses is treatment to produce a natural, granulated fertilizer that can be commercially marketed for garden and commercial use. Odor of the final product is important in consumer acceptance, and an earthy odor is desirable. By understanding and manipulating the microbial processes occurring during this process, it may be possible to modify the odors produced. Geosmin and related volatiles produced by soil actinomycetes are responsible for earthy odors, and actinomycetes are likely to be present in the composting manure. Bacterial communities at each stage of the process were analyzed by culturing studies and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). The processing steps changed the culturable bacterial community, but the total community was shown by DGGE to be stable throughout the process. A local agricultural soil was analyzed in parallel as a potential source of geosmin-producing actinomycetes. This agricultural soil had higher microbial diversity than the compost at both the culturable and the molecular levels. Actinomycete bacteria were isolated and analyzed by AromaTrax, a gas chromatography-olfactometry system. This system enables the odor production of individual isolates to be monitored, allowing for rational selection of strains for augmentation experiments to improve the odor of the final fertilizer product. 相似文献

应用rpoB和16S rDNA基因的变性梯度凝胶电泳技术对山羊瘤胃细菌多样性的研究 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
采用免培养的rpoB和16S rDNA基因的变性梯度凝胶电泳技术(DGGE)对3种山羊(波尔山羊,内蒙古绒山羊,四川南江黄羊)瘤胃细菌优势菌群结构进行了比较分析。研究结果显示rpoBDGGE图谱中条带数目少于16S rDNA图谱,并且条带分离效果明显,更有利于分析瘤胃细菌群落组成。从两种DGGE图谱中均可以发现3种山羊瘤胃细菌具有一定的相似性,种内个体间相似性明显高于种间相似性,这说明寄主品种是影响瘤胃细菌种群构成的一个重要因素。同时进行了部分优势细菌16S rDNA基因V6-V8区序列的系统发育分析。基因序列分析表明,DGGE图谱中优势条带的16S rDNA基因序列中有4条克隆的序列与基因库最相似菌的相似性大于97%,余下的克隆序列相似性在89%~96%之间,其中13条序列的与之相似性最高的序列均来自于未被鉴定的瘤胃细菌。 相似文献

Continuous thermophilic composting (CTC) for rapid biodegradation and maturation of organic municipal solid waste 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Yong Xiao Guang-Ming ZengZhao-Hui Yang Wen-Jun ShiCui Huang Chang-Zheng FanZheng-Yong Xu 《Bioresource technology》2009,100(20):4807-4813
Fewer and fewer municipal solid wastes are treated by composting in China because of the disadvantages of enormous investment, long processing cycle and unstable products in a conventional composting treatment. In this study, a continuous thermophilic composting (CTC) method, only a thermophilic phase within the process, has been applied to four bench-scale composting runs, and further compared with a conventional composting run by assessing the indexes of pH, total organic carbon (TOC), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), C/N ratio, germination index (GI), specific oxygen uptake rate (SOUR), dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and dehydrogenase activity. After composting for 14 days, 16 days, 18 days and 19 days in the four CTC runs, respectively, mature compost products were obtained, with quality similar to or better than which had been stabilized for 28 days in run A. The products from the CTC runs also showed favorable stability in room temperature environment after the short-term composting at high temperature. The study suggested CTC as a novel method for rapid degradation and maturation of organic municipal solid wastes. 相似文献

Specific response of a novel and abundant Lactobacillus amylovorus-like phylotype to dietary prebiotics in the guts of weaning piglets 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Using 16S rRNA gene-based approaches, we analyzed the responses of ileal and colonic bacterial communities of weaning piglets to dietary addition of four fermentable carbohydrates (inulin, lactulose, wheat starch, and sugar beet pulp). An enriched diet and a control diet lacking these fermentable carbohydrates were fed to piglets for 4 days (n = 48), and 10 days (n = 48), and the lumen-associated microbiota were compared using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis of amplified 16S rRNA genes. Bacterial diversities in the ileal and colonic samples were measured by assessing the number of DGGE bands and the Shannon index of diversity. A higher number of DGGE bands in the colon (24.2 +/- 5.5) than in the ileum (9.7 +/- 4.2) was observed in all samples. In addition, significantly higher diversity, as measured by DGGE fingerprint analysis, was detected in the colonic microbial community of weaning piglets fed the fermentable-carbohydrate-enriched diet for 10 days than in the control. Selected samples from the ileal and colonic lumens were also investigated using fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and cloning and sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene. This revealed a prevalence of Lactobacillus reuteri in the ileum and Lactobacillus amylovorus-like populations in the ileum and the colon in the piglets fed with fermentable carbohydrates. Newly developed oligonucleotide probes targeting these phylotypes allowed their rapid detection and quantification in the ileum and colon by FISH. The results indicate that addition of fermentable carbohydrates supports the growth of specific lactobacilli in the ilea and colons of weaning piglets. 相似文献
