We present the results of an investigation into the special traits of conversion of azo dyes Acid Orange 6, Acid Orange 7, Methyl Orange, and Methyl Red under anaerobic conditions in comparison to aerobic conditions. In the presence of oxygen, only Methyl Red underwent decomposition, while under oxygen-free conditions, all remaining substances were fully decolourised under the action of a methanogenous consortium of microorganisms. The products of reduction of the azo bond are determined in the case of each dye. Introduction of additional acceptors of electrons (sulfate and nitrate) had a negative influence on the discoloration of azo dyes. Addition of ethanol as an available organic cosubstrate accelerated decomposition of azo dyes both under methanogenous and sulfate- and nitrate-reducing conditions. There is no direct correlation between the rates of conversion of azo dyes under anaerobic conditions or their toxicity to acetoclastic methanogens. Changes in the morphological composition of the community decolouring an azo dye depended on the duration of its impact on microorganisms. The mechanism of the reduction of the azo bond under the action of substances acting as mediators is explained. These substances are products of the metabolism of the microbial community in anaerobic conditions. It is shown that the supposed mediators NADH and sulfide efficiently decolourise azo dyes in a cell-free system, while riboflavin significantly increased the rate of conversion of substrates in recurrent cycles of discoloration only in the presence of an anaerobic microbial consortium.  相似文献

In the present investigation, two fungal strains were exploited to evaluate their degradation capability on Synozol Red, Yellow, and Navy-Blue dyes which gave the utmost decolorization such as 40%, 70%, 90% by Aspergillus niger, and 36%, 73%, 87% by Trichoderma viride, respectively for 60 days. The Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis of the decolorized dyes suggested that various compounds such as Caprolactam, Furazan-3-carboxamide, oxime, 4-amino-N, N-dimethyl, 6H-Pyrazolo[1,2-a] [1,2,4,5]tetrazine, Hexahydro-2,3-dimethyl, Benzene, 1-propenyl, Dihydroxymaleic acid, Arsenous acid, tris(trimethylsilyl) ester were produced by the fungi which helped in the removal of dyes from the wastewater. The laccase activity of the degraded dyes was proof that both of the strains positively produced the enzyme that helped in the biodegradation of carcinogenic dyes into less harmful products. The A. niger extracted laccase relative activity was 262%, 265%, and 145.7% for Synozol Yellow, Synozol Red, and Navy Blue, respectively. Similarly, laccase, obtained from T. viride, showed relative activity of 187.5% against Synozol Yellow, 215% against Synozol Red, and 202% against Navy Blue. Furthermore, the supernatant extracted from fungi-decolorized wastewater was used to check phytotoxicity on Vigna radiata, which gave excellent results. Both fungal strains, on the basis of their dye degradation potential, can be used to ameliorate wastewater contaminated with azo dyes.  相似文献

Six mitosporic fungi belonging to five species (Aspergillus flavus var. flavus, Aspergillus ochraceus, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Penicillium glabrum and Penicillium verrucosum) were selected from a screening on 258 fungal strains as the most promising for their ability to remove 2 model dyes in solid conditions. Hence they were tested in liquid conditions for their ability to decolourise 3 model dyes and 9 industrial dyes widely used in the textile industry. The influence of the culture medium, particularly its carbon:nitrogen ratio, on biomass development and decolourisation capacity was considered. All the strains were able to grow in the dyed media and displayed various degrees of decolourisation according to the dye and culture medium. The decolourisation was due to biosorption phenomena. Aspergillus ochraceus performed the highest decolourisation yield being able to remove all dyes over 90%. This strain was also found very effective, both in the living and inactivated form, against simulated effluents that mimicked the recalcitrance of real wastewaters being composed of ten different dyes at high concentration (1,000 ppm), in saline solution.  相似文献

The textile industry is a substantial consumer of water and produces enormous volumes of contaminated water; the most important contaminants are azo dyes. Microbial processes for the treatment of textile wastewater have the advantage of being cost-effective and environmentally friendly and producing less sludge. The most promising microorganisms for wastewater treatment are those isolated from sites contaminated with dyes or from the sludge of treatment plants because they have adapted to survive in adverse conditions. The mechanism of microbial decolouration occurs from adsorption, enzymatic degradation or a combination of both. Both reductases and oxidases are involved in the microbial degradation process. The goal of microbial treatment is to decolourise and detoxify the dye-contaminated effluents. In this review, we summarise the methodologies used to evaluate the toxicity of azo dyes and their degradation products. Recent studies on the decolouration or degradation of azo dyes using algae, yeast, filamentous fungi and bacteria, genetically modified microorganisms, microbial consortia and microbiological systems combined with Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) and Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) are discussed in this review.  相似文献

Thirty wood-rotting basidiomycetes, most of them causing white rot in wood, were isolated from fruiting bodies growing on decaying wood from the Sierra de Ayllón (Spain). The fungi were identified on the basis of their morphological characteristics and compared for their ability to decolorize Reactive Black 5 and Reactive Blue 38 (as model of azo and phthalocyanine type dyes, respectively) at 75 and 150 mg/L. Only eighteen fungal strains were able to grow on agar plates in the presence of the dyes and only three species (Calocera cornea, Lopharia spadicea, Polyporus alveolaris) decolorized efficiently both dyes at both concentrations. The ligninolytic activities, involved in decolorization dyes (laccases, lignin peroxidases, Mn-oxidizing peroxidases), were followed in glucose basal medium in the presence of enzyme inducers. The results indicate a high variability of the ligninolytic system within white-rot basidiomycetes. These fungal species and their enzymes can represent new alternatives for the study of new biological systems to degrade aromatic compounds causing environmental problems.  相似文献

In this work, the anaerobic period of an anaerobic–aerobic sequencing batch reactor was found to allow the reductive decolourisation of azo dyes. 1-l reactors were operated in 24-h cycles comprising anaerobic and aerobic reaction phases, fed with a simulated textile effluent including a reactive type (Remazol Brilliant Violet 5R) or an acid type (Acid Orange 7) azo dye. The aim was to assess the role of different redox phenomena in the anaerobic decolourisation process. Selective inhibition of sulphate reducing bacteria was carried out in the sulphate-containing, reactive dye fed reactor, resulting in nearly complete, though reversible and inhibition of decolourisation. The acid dye fed reactor's supplementation with sulphate, though resulting in sulphate reduction, did not improve decolourisation. Other redox mediators, namely quinones, were more effective in promoting electron transfer to the azo bond. Bio-augmentation of the acid dye fed reactor with a pure sulphate reducer strain known to decolourise azo dyes, Desulfovibrio alaskensis, was also carried out. Decolourisation was improved, but apparently as a result of the carbon source change required to support D. alaskensis growth. A chemically mediated reduction of the azo bond coupled to biological sulphate reduction, thus seemed to account for the high decolourisation yields of both dyes.  相似文献

A total of 37 strains of aquatic hyphomycetes and 95 fungal isolates derived from diverse freshwater environments were screened on agar plates for the decolourisation of the disazo dye Reactive Black 5 and the anthraquinone dye Reactive Blue 19. The decolourisation of 9 azo and 3 anthraquinone dyes by 9 selected aquatic fungi was subsequently assessed in a liquid test system. The fungi were representatives of mitosporic anamorphs, and 6 strains had proven ascomycete affiliations. For comparison, 5 white rot basidiomycetes were included. The majority of dyes were decolourised by several mitosporic aquatic isolates at rates essentially comparable to those observed with the most efficient white rot fungus. Under certain conditions, particular aquatic strains decolourised dyes even more efficiently than the best performing white rot basidiomycete. Upon fungal treatment of several dyes, new absorbance peaks appeared, indicating biotransformation metabolites. All together, these results point to the potential of fungi occurring in freshwater environments for the treatment of dye-containing effluents.  相似文献

Unspecific bacterial reduction of azo dyes is a process widely studied in correlation with the biological treatment of colored wastewaters, but the enzyme system associated with this bacterial capability has never been positively identified. Several ascomycete yeast strains display similar decolorizing behaviors. The yeast-mediated process requires an alternative carbon and energy source and is independent of previous exposure to the dyes. When substrate dyes are polar, their reduction is extracellular, strongly suggesting the involvement of an externally directed plasma membrane redox system. The present work demonstrates that, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the ferric reductase system participates in the extracellular reduction of azo dyes. The S. cerevisiae Deltafre1 and Deltafre1 Deltafre2 mutant strains, but not the Deltafre2 strain, showed much-reduced decolorizing capabilities. The FRE1 gene complemented the phenotype of S. cerevisiae Deltafre1 cells, restoring the ability to grow in medium without externally added iron and to decolorize the dye, following a pattern similar to the one observed in the wild-type strain. These results suggest that under the conditions tested, Fre1p is a major component of the azo reductase activity.  相似文献

Eighteen fungal strains, known for their ability to degrade lignocellulosic material or lignin derivatives, were screened for their potential to decolorize commercially used reactive textile dyes. Three azo dyes, Reactive Orange 96, Reactive Violet 5 and Reactive Black 5, and two phthalocyanine dyes, Reactive Blue 15 and Reactive Blue 38, were chosen as representatives of commercially used reactive dyes. From the 18 tested fungal strains only Bjerkandera adusta, Trametes versicolor and Phanerochaete chrysosporium were able to decolorize all the dyes tested. During degradation of the nickel-phthalocyanine complex, Reactive Blue 38, by B. adusta and T. versicolor respectively, the toxicity of this dye to Vibrio fischeri was significantly reduced. In the case of Reactive Violet 5, a far-reaching detoxification was achieved by treatment with B. adusta. Reactive Blue 38 and Reactive Violet 5 were decolorized by crude exoenzyme preparations from T. versicolor and B. adusta in a H2O2-dependent reaction. Specific activities of the exoenzyme preparations with the dyes were determined and compared to oxidation rates by commercial horseradish peroxidase.

Aim:  The ability of Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus paracasei to modify the azo dye, tartrazine, was recently documented as the result of the investigation on red coloured spoilage in acidified cucumbers. Fourteen other lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were screened for their capability to modify the food colouring tartrazine and other azo dyes of relevance for the textile industry.
Methods and Results:  Most LAB modified tartrazine under anaerobic conditions, but not under aerobic conditions in modified chemically defined media. Microbial growth was not affected by the presence of the azo dyes in the culture medium. The product of the tartrazine modification by LAB was identified as a molecule 111 daltons larger than its precursor by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. This product had a purple colour under aerobic conditions and was colourless under anaerobic conditions. It absorbed light at 361 and 553 nm.
Conclusion:  LAB are capable of anabolizing azo dyes only under anaerobic conditions.
Impact and Significance of the Study:  Although micro-organisms capable of reducing the azo bond on multiple dyes have been known for decades, this is the first report of anabolism of azo dyes by food related micro-organisms, such as LAB.  相似文献

Biodegradation perspectives of azo dyes by yeasts   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Azo dyes are the largest class of synthetic dyes, which are widely used in the textile industry. The amount of dyestuff does not bind to the fibers and is lost in wastewater during textile processing. The discharge of colored effluents into the environment is not only aesthetically unpleasing. Moreover, dyes and their break-down products cause toxic effects and they affect photosynthetic activity of aquatic systems by reducing light penetration. A number of microorganisms belonging to different taxonomic groups of bacteria, algae, fungi and yeast have been reported for their ability to decolorize azo dyes. In the literature the ability to decolorize azo dyes by yeasts, compared to bacterial and fungal species, has been studied in a few reports. Within this review, an attempt is made to elucidate some basic biological aspects associated with the azo dye degradation by yeasts and enzymes involved that are responsible for degradation process.  相似文献

Azo compounds constitute the largest and the most diverse group of synthetic dyes and are widely used in a number of industries such as textile, food, cosmetics and paper printing. They are generally recalcitrant to biodegradation due to their xenobiotic nature. However microorganisms, being highly versatile, have developed enzyme systems for the decolorization and mineralization of azo dyes under certain environmental conditions. Several genera of Basidomycetes have been shown to mineralize azo dyes. Reductive cleavage of azo bond, leading to the formation of aromatic amines, is the initial reaction during the bacterial metabolism of azo dyes. Anaerobic/anoxic azo dye decolorization by several mixed and pure bacterial cultures have been reported. Under these conditions, this reaction is non-specific with respect to organisms as well as dyes. Various mechanisms, which include enzymatic as well as low molecular weight redox mediators, have been proposed for this non-specific reductive cleavage. Only few aerobic bacterial strains that can utilize azo dyes as growth substrates have been isolated. These organisms generally have a narrow substrate range. Degradation of aromatic amines depends on their chemical structure and the conditions. It is now known that simple aromatic amines can be mineralized under methanogenic conditions. Sulfonated aromatic amines, on the other hand, are resistant and require specialized aerobic microbial consortia for their mineralization. This review is focused on the bacterial decolorization of azo dyes and mineralization of aromatic amines, as well as the application of these processes for the treatment of azo-dye-containing wastewaters.  相似文献

Of seven fungal strains tested for their ability to decolourise three structurally diverse synthetic dyes, Phanerochaete sordida, Bjerkandera sp. BOS55, Phlebia radiata, and Phanerochaete chrysosporium had average values of maximum decolourisation rates higher than 0.2 [Absorbance] d–1. All seven fungi produced manganese peroxidase (MnP) but laccase activity was detected only in Phlebia radiata. No lignin peroxidase (LiP) activity was observed.  相似文献

One laccase-secreting engineered strain and four white-rot fungi were tested for their capacity to decolorize nine dyes that could be classified as azo, anthraquinonic and triphenylmethane dyes. Trametes versicolor was the most efficient of the tested strains under these experimental conditions. Anthraquinonic dyes were decolorized more easily than the other two types. Small structural differences among the dyes could significantly affect decolorization. None of the strains showed lignin peroxidase or veratryl alcohol oxidase activity. None of the dyes were decolorized completely by laccase alone. It is likely that other phenoloxidases, such as Mn-dependent and versatile peroxidase, were also involved in decolorization of the dyes.  相似文献

Studies were carried out on the decolorization of textile azo dyes by newly isolated halophilic and halotolerant bacteria. Among the 27 strains of halophilic and halotolerant bacteria isolated from effluents of textile industries, three showed remarkable ability in decolorizing the widely utilized azo dyes. Phenotypic characterization and phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence comparisons indicate that these strains belonged to the genus Halomonas. The three strains were able to decolorize azo dyes in a wide range of NaCl concentration (up to 20%w/v), temperature (25-40 degrees C), and pH (5-11) after 4 days of incubation in static culture. They could decolorize the mixture of dyes as well as pure dyes. These strains also readily grew in and decolorized the high concentrations of dye (5000 ppm) and could tolerate up to 10,000 ppm of the dye. UV-Vis analyses before and after decolorization and the colorless bacterial biomass after decolorization suggested that decolorization was due to biodegradation, rather than inactive surface adsorption. Analytical studies based on HPLC showed that the principal decolorization was reduction of the azo bond, followed by cleavage of the reduced bond.  相似文献

Sudan azo dyes are banned for food usage in most countries, but they are illegally used to maintain or enhance the color of food products due to low cost, bright staining, and wide availability of the dyes. In this report, we examined the toxic effects of these azo dyes and their potential reduction metabolites on 11 prevalent human intestinal bacterial strains. Among the tested bacteria, cell growth of 2, 3, 5, 5, and 1 strains was inhibited by Sudan I, II, III, IV, and Para Red, respectively. At the tested concentration of 100 μM, Sudan I and II inhibited growth of Clostridium perfringens and Lactobacillus rhamnosus with decrease of growth rates from 14 to 47%. Sudan II also affected growth of Enterococcus faecalis. Growth of Bifidobacterium catenulatum, C. perfringens, E. faecalis, Escherichia coli, and Peptostreptococcus magnus was affected by Sudan III and IV with decrease in growth rates from 11 to 67%. C. perfringens was the only strain in which growth was affected by Para Red with 47 and 26% growth decreases at 6 and 10 h, respectively. 1-Amino-2-naphthol, a common metabolite of the dyes, was capable of inhibiting growth of most of the tested bacteria with inhibition rates from 8 to 46%. However, the other metabolites of the dyes had no effect on growth of the bacterial strains. The dyes and their metabolites had less effect on cell viability than on cell growth of the tested bacterial strains. Clostridium indolis and Clostridium ramosum were the only two strains with about a 10 % decrease in cell viability in the presence of Sudan azo dyes. The present results suggested that Sudan azo dyes and their metabolites potentially affect the human intestinal bacterial ecology by selectively inhibiting some bacterial species, which may have an adverse effect on human health.  相似文献

Sulfonated azo dyes were decolorized by two wild type photosynthetic bacterial (PSB) strains (Rhodobacter sphaeroides AS1.1737 and Rhodopseudomonas palustris AS1.2352) and a recombinant strain (Escherichia coli YB). The effects of environmental factors (dissolved oxygen, pH and temperature) on decolorization were investigated. All the strains could decolorize azo dye up to 900 mg l−1, and the correlations between the specific decolorization rate and dye concentration could be described by Michaelis–Menten kinetics. Repeated batch operations were performed to study the persistence and stability of bacterial decolorization. Mixed azo dyes were also decolorized by the two PSB strains. Azoreductase was overexpressed in E. coli YB; however, the two PSB strains were better decolorizers for sulfonated azo dyes.  相似文献

Sphingomonas sp strain 1CX was isolated from a wastewater treatment plant and is capable of aerobically degrading a suite of azo dyes, using them as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen. All azo dyes known to be decolorized by strain 1CX (Orange II, Acid Orange 8, Acid Orange 10, Acid Red 4, and Acid Red 88) have in their structure either 1-amino-2-naphthol or 2-amino-1-naphthol. In addition, an analysis of the structures of the dyes degraded suggests that there are certain positions and types of substituents on the azo dye which determine if degradation will occur. Growth and dye decolorization occurs only aerobically and does not occur under fermentative or denitrification conditions. The mechanism by which 1CX decolorizes azo dyes appears to be through reductive cleavage of the azo bond. In the case of Orange II, the initial degradation products were sulfanilic acid and 1-amino-2-naphthol. Sulfanilic acid, however, was not used by 1CX as a growth substrate. The addition of glucose or inorganic nitrogen inhibited growth and decoloration of azo dyes by 1CX. Attempts to grow the organism on chemically defined media containing several different amino acids and sugars as sources of nitrogen and carbon were not successful. Phylogenetic analysis of Sphingomonas sp strain 1CX shows it to be related to, but distinct from, other azo dye-decolorizing Sphingomonas spp strains isolated previously from the same wastewater treatment facility.

Thirty-seven azo, xanthene and triphenylmethane dyes including FD and C colors currently approved for use in the U.S.A. and a number of delisted food colors, were tested in the Salmonella/microsome system. In addition to direct plate tests with five tester strains (TA1535, TA100, TA1537, TA1538, TA98), the azo dyes were also assayed after chemical reduction to their component amines. Also, a selected group of azo dyes was subjected to liquid tests (both aerobic with microsomes and anaerobic) and to plate tests involving initial 16 h anaerobic incubations to facilitate microbial reduction of the azo bond. None of the presently listed FD and C colors was mutagenic in any of the test modifications. Among formerly listed colors only Butter Yellow (p-dimethylaminoazobenzene), a recognized animal carcinogen, was mutagenic in the aerobic liquid test. Several other azo dyes were either directly mutagenic, viz. Acid Alizarin Yellow R and Alizarin Yellow GG; required microsomal activation, viz. Acid Alizarin Red B and Methyl Red; or required chemical reduction and microsomal activation, viz. Acid Alizarin Violet N and Sudan IV. Of the non-azo dyes tested only two xanthene dyes appeared to be mutagenic, viz. 9-(2-sulfophenyl)-6-hydroxy-3-isoxanthenone and its 2,4,5,7-tetrabromo derivative.  相似文献
