A simple and green method was developed for the extracellular biosynthesis of silver chloride nanoparticles, free from silver nanoparticles, using cell-free filtrate of a thermotolerant fungal strain Aspergillus terreus 8. The synthesized silver chloride nanoparticles exhibited characteristic absorption maximum at 275 nm. As-fabricated AgCl-NPs were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, XRD, SEM-EDX, and FT-IR. The biosynthesized silver chloride nanoparticles exhibited strong antimicrobial activity towards pathogenic microorganisms such as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum and Verticillium dahliae. The synthesized silver chloride nanoparticles can be exploited as a promising new biocide bionanocomposite against pathogenic microorganisms. 相似文献

The genus-specific surface protein antigens of Azospirillum brasilense strains were visualized immunochemically. The procedure used for cell sample preparation was optimized to ensure that the surface protein structures were detected on cells in situ. Gold and gold-silver nanoparticles were conjugated to antibodies raised against the flagellin of A. brasilense type strain Sp7, against the lipopolysaccharide of A. brasilense Sp245, and against the genus-specific protein determinants of A. brasilense Sp7. Electron microscopic analysis using nanoparticle-labeled antibodies revealed antigenic determinants of the polar flagellum on the A. brasilense Sp245 cell surface, which in these bacteria are normally screened from the surroundings by a lipopolysaccharide sheath. Pili-like structures were detected on the Sp245 wild-type strain and on its Fla– Swa– Omegon-Km mutant SK048, which are presumably involved in microcolonial spreading in these bacteria. 相似文献

It is known that in Azospirillum brasilense strains Sp245 and SR75 included in serogroup I, the repeat units of their O-polysaccharides consist of five residues of D-rhamnose, and in strain SR15, of four; and the heteropolymeric O-polysaccharide of A. brasilense type strain Sp7 from serogroup II contains not less than five types of repeat units. In the present work, a complex of nondegenerate primers to the genes of A. brasilense Sp245 plasmids AZOBR_p6, AZOBR_p3, and AZOBR_p2, which encode putative enzymes for the biosynthesis of core oligosaccharide and O-polysaccharide of lipopolysaccharide, capsular polysaccharides, and exopolysaccharides, was proposed. By using the designed primers, products of the expected sizes were synthesized in polymerase chain reactions on genomic DNA of A. brasilense Sp245, SR75, SR15, and Sp7 in 36, 29, 23, and 12 cases, respectively. As a result of sequencing of a number of amplicons, a high (86–99%) level of identity of the corresponding putative polysaccharide biosynthesis genes in three A. brasilense strains from serogroup I was detected. In a blotting-hybridization reaction with the biotin-labeled DNA of the A. brasilense gene AZOBR_p60122 coding for putative permease of the ABC transporter of polysaccharides, localization of the homologous gene in ~120-MDa plasmids of the bacteria A. brasilense SR15 and SR75 was revealed. 相似文献

Herein, we reveal the alteration in phenol oxidase enzymes complex production from Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 omegon mutants with polar and lateral flagella dysfunction and from A. brasilense Sp7 phase variants with different plasmid composition. The enzymatic activities for various laccases, tyrosinases, Mnperoxidases, and lignin peroxidases as well as the isomorphic composition of intracellular laccases and tyrosinases were estimated for the studied variants and the parent strains. It was noted that various genetic events correlating with phenotypic heterogeneity in A. brasilense populations affect their phenol oxidase activity level. 相似文献

This study examined the co-immobilization of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus with the plant growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum brasilense in alginate beads and its potential application for the removal of phosphorus from aquaculture wastewater. Co-immobilization of both microorganisms significantly increased the cell density of S. elongatus (2852.5?×?104 cells mL?1) compared with that of immobilization of cyanobacteria alone (1325.2?×?104 cells mL?1). Chlorophyll a content was similar in co-immobilized (11.1?±?3.5 pg cell?1) and immobilized S. elongatus (14.5?±?4.9 pg cell?1). Azospirillum brasilense showed continuous growth until day 2, after which its cell concentration declined until the end of the assay. Co-immobilized S. elongatus removed more phosphorus (44.8 %) than immobilized cyanobacteria cells alone (32.0 %). In conclusion, phosphate removal was greater with free cells of S. elongatus but overlapped with the values that were obtained with the treatment of co-immobilization of cells. Our results demonstrate that A. brasilense enhances the growth of S. elongatus and improves its removal of phosphorus when they are co-immobilized in alginate beads compared with only immobilization of cyanobacteria cells alone. 相似文献

Azospirillum sp. is one of the most studied genera of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). The ability of Azospirillum sp. to promote plant growth has been associated with its ability to produce several phytohormones, such as auxins, gibberellins and cytokinins, but mainly indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). It has been propoosed that the production of IAA explains the positive effects of co-inoculation with Azospirillum sp. on the rhizobia-legume symbiosis. In this study, we constructed an IAA-deficient mutant of A. brasilense Az39 (ipdC ? ) by using a restriction-free cloning method. We inoculated soybean seeds with 1·106 cfu·seed?1 of Bradyrhizobium japonicum E109 and co-inoculating leaves at the V3 stage with 1·108 cfu.plant?1 of A. brasilense Az39 wt or ipdC ? or inoculated leaves with 20 μg.plant?1 synthetic IAA. The results confirmed soybean growth promotion as there was increased total plant and root length, aerial and root dry weight, number of nodules on the primary root, and an increase in the symbiosis established with B. japonicum E109. Nodule weight also increased after foliar co-inoculation with the IAA- producer A. brasilense Az39. The exogenous application of IAA decreased aerial and root length, as well as the number of nodules on primary roots in comparison with the Az39 wt strain. These results allow us to propose a biological model of response to foliar co-inoculation of soybean with IAA-producing rhizobacteria. This model clearly shows that both the presence of microorganism as part of the colonization process and the production of IAA in situ are co-responsible, via plant signaling molecules, for the positive effects on plant growth and symbiosis establishment. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles have been obtained in a matrix of 6-O-carboxymethyl chitin in the presence of D-glucose as a reducing agent by microwave hydrothermal synthesis. The TEM results show that the silver nanoparticles have a spherical shape; the particle size range is 3–20 nm. The resulting colloidal solution of silver nanoparticles had a strong bacterial effect on gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 21027 (=209 P), Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, and, to a lesser extent, on gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli АТСС 25922. The synthesized silver nanoparticles showed pronounced fungistatic activity against A. niger INA 00760. 相似文献

Thiamine release during synthetic mutualism between Chlorella sorokiniana co-immobilized in alginate beads with the microalgae growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum brasilense was measured under stress conditions of pH, light intensity, and nitrogen starvation in short-term experiments. Thiamine release in the co-immobilized treatment was significantly higher at acidic pH compared to thiamine released by either microorganism alone. Under slightly alkaline pH, C. sorokiniana released the highest amount of thiamine. At stressful pH 6, the co-immobilized treatment released a higher quantity of thiamine than the sum of thiamine released by either microorganisms when immobilized separately. Release of thiamine by C. sorokiniana alone or co-immobilized was light intensity dependent; with higher the light intensity, more thiamine was released. Extreme light intensity negatively affected growth of the microalgae and release of thiamine. Nitrogen starvation during the first 24 h of culturing negatively affected release of thiamine by both microorganisms, where C. sorokiniana was more severely affected. Partial or continuous nitrogen starvation had similar negative effects on C. sorokiniana, but co-immobilization improved thiamine release. These results indicate that thiamine is released during synthetic mutualism between C. sorokiniana and A. brasilense, and this happens specifically during the alleviation of pH stress in the microalgae. 相似文献

A complex of Ag/AgCl nanoparticles was synthesized on the basis of the extracellular polysaccharide of Azotobacter chroococcum XU1 and 10 mM AgNO3 solution. The complex was characterized by UV spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. Colloidal solutions of the complex had absorption peaks at 260 and 420 nm, indicating the formation Ag/AgCl nanoparticles. The size of the nanoparticles varied from 6 to 50 nm. The nanobiocomposite consisting of the exopolysaccharide matrix and Ag/AgCl nanoparticles exhibited a fungicidal effect against such plant pathogens as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum and Verticillium dahliae. 相似文献

Effect of the carbon source in the culture medium and of the growth phase on the composition and structure of the capsular polysaccharides (CPSs) and lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) of the bacterium Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 was studied. Growth with fructose resulted in an increased carbohydrate content in the CPSs, while long-term cultivation resulted in an increased content of phosphorus in both CPSs and LPSs. The LPSs produced on the medium with fructose (regardless of the cultivation duration) and the LPSs of the bacteria grown with sodium malate until the stationary phase were characterized by higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids than the LPSs of the bacteria grown with sodium malate to the late exponential phase. The structures of the polysaccharides from the isolated glycopolymers were established using monosaccharide analysis, including determination of the absolute configurations and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. This study is the first to report that the CPS of A. brasilense Sp245 grown with sodium malate to the end of the exponential phase is structurally identical to the O-polysaccharide from the LPS of this bacterium and that the LPS and CPS of A. brasilense Sp245 grown with fructose contain an additional homoglucan of the following structure: [→3)-α-D-Glcp-(1→] n . 相似文献

The previously obtained insertion mutants of Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 in the genes mmsB1 and fabG1 (strains SK039 and Sp245.1610, respectively) were characterized by impaired flagellation and motility. The putative products of expression of these genes are 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase and 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier protein] reductase, respectively. In the present work, A. brasilense strains Sp245, SK039, and Sp245.1610 were found to have differences in the content of 3-hydroxyhexadecanoic, hexadecanoic, 3-hydroxytetradecanoic, hexadecenoic, octadecenoic, and nonadecanoic acids in their lipopolysaccharide preparations, as well as in cell hydrophobicity and hemagglutination activity and dynamics of cell aggregation, in biomass amount, and in the relative content of lipopolysaccharide antigens in mature biofilms formed on hydrophilic or hydrophobic surfaces. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), embedded into a specific exopolysaccharide (EPS), were produced by Klebsiella oxytoca DSM 29614 by adding AgNO3 to the cultures during exponential growth phase. In particular, under aerobic or anaerobic conditions, two types of silver nanoparticles, named AgNPs-EPSaer and the AgNPs-EPSanaer, were produced respectively. The effects on bacterial cells was demonstrated by using Escherichia coli K12 and Kocuria rhizophila ATCC 9341 (ex Micrococcus luteus) as Gram-negative and Gram-positive tester strains, respectively. The best antimicrobial activity was observed for AgNPs-EPSaer, in terms of minimum inhibitory concentrations and minimum bactericidal concentrations. Observations by transmission electron microscopy showed that the cell morphology of both tester strains changed during the exposition to AgNPs-EPSaer. In particular, an electron-dense wrapped filament was observed in E. coli cytoplasm after 3 h of AgNPs-EPSaer exposition, apparently due to silver accumulation in DNA, and both E. coli and K. rhizophila cells were lysed after 18 h of exposure to AgNPs-EPSaer. The DNA breakage in E. coli cells was confirmed by the comparison of 3-D fluorescence spectra fingerprints of DNA. Finally the accumulation of silver on DNA of E. coli was confirmed directly by a significant Ag+ release from DNA, using the scanning electrochemical microscopy and the voltammetric determinations. 相似文献

We evaluated the effect of lipopolysaccharides from the plant-growth-promoting associative bacterium Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 and from the enteric bacterium Escherichia coli K12 on the morphogenic potential of in vitro-growing somatic calluses of soft spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Saratovskaya 29). A genetic model was used that included two near-isogenic lines of T. aestivum L. cv. Saratovskaya 29 with different embryogenic capacities; one of these lines carries the Rht-B1 dwarfing gene, whereas the other lacks it. When added to the nutrient medium, the lipopolysaccharide of A. brasilense Sp245 promoted the formation of calluses with meristematic centers and stimulated the regeneration ability of the cultured tissues in both lines. By contrast, the lipopolysaccharide of the enteric bacterium E. coli K12 barely affected the morphogenetic activity of callus cells and the yield of morphogenic calluses and regenerated plants. These findings indicate that the lipopolysaccharide of the plant-growth-promoting associative bacterium A. brasilense Sp245 specifically enhances the morphogenetic activity of wheat somatic tissues, which increases the efficacy of culturing of genotypes with a relatively low morphogenic potential. The results of the study may contribute to the improvement of the efficacy of plant cell selection and gene engineering and to a better understanding of the mechanisms responsible for plant recognition of lipopolysaccharides of associative bacteria. 相似文献

This paper describes the extracellular synthesis of silver nanoparticles from waste part of lychee fruit (peel) and their conjugation with selected antibiotics (amoxicillin, cefixim, and streptomycin). FTIR studies revealed the reduction of metallic silver and stabilization of silver nanoparticles and their conjugates due to the presence of CO (carboxyl), OH (hydroxyl) and CH (alkanes) groups. The size of conjugated nanoparticles varied ranging from 3 to 10 nm as shown by XRD. TEM image revealed the spherical shape of biosynthesized silver nanoparticles. Conjugates of amoxicillin and cefixim showed highest antibacterial activity (147.43 and 107.95%, respectively) against Gram-negative bacteria i.e. Alcaligenes faecalis in comparison with their control counterparts. The highest reduction in MIC was noted against Gram-positive strains i.e. Enterococcus faecium (75%) and Microbacterium oxydans (75%) for amoxicillin conjugates. Anova two factor followed by two-tailed t test showed non-significant results both in case of cell leakage and protein estimation between nanoparticles and conjugates of amoxicillin, cefixime and streptomycin. In case of MDA release, non-significant difference among the test samples against the selected strains. Our study found green-synthesized silver nanoparticles as effective antibacterial bullet against both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, but they showed a more promising effect on conjugation with selected antibiotics against Gram negative type. 相似文献

Italian ryegrass is one of main feed for livestock animals/birds. It has potential antioxidant metabolites that can improve their health and protect them against various infectious diseases. In this work, we studied synthesis of silver nanoparticles assisted by forage crop Lolium multiflorum as a green synthesis way. Potential antibacterial efficacy of these synthesized nanosized silver nanoparticles against poultry pathogenic bacteria was then studied. Aqueous extract of IRG was used as reducing agent for bio-reduction of silver salt to convert Ag+ to Ag0 metallic nano-silver. Size, shape, metallic composition, functional group, and crystalline nature of these synthesized silver nanoparticles were then characterized using UV–Vis spectrophotometer, FESEM, EDX, FT-IT, and XRD, respectively. In addition, antibacterial effects of these synthesized AgNPs against poultry pathogenic bacteria were evaluated by agar well diffusion method. UV–Vis spectra showed strong absorption peak of 440–450 nm with differ reaction time ranging from 30 min to 24 h. FESEM measurements revealed particles sizes of around 20–100 nm, majority of which were spherical in shape while a few were irregular. These biosynthesized silver nanoparticles using IRG extract exhibited strong antibacterial activities against poultry pathogenic microorganisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis. Overall results confirmed that IRG plant extract possessed potential bioactive compounds for converting silver ions into nanosized silver at room temperature without needing any external chemical for redox reaction. In addition, such synthesized AgNPs showed strong antibacterial activities against pathogenic bacteria responsible for infectious diseases in poultry. 相似文献

The effect of extracellular proteinases of A. flavipes A17, A. fumigatus D1, and A. sydowii 1 on proteins of the human haemostasis system was studied. It was shown that A. fumigatus D1 proteinases are able to hydrolyze a wide range of chromogenic peptide substrates of specific human proteinases of the haemostatic system. Proteinases formed by A. flavipes A17 and A. sydowii 1 have a narrow specificity, mainly to thrombin and plasmin substrates. It was first shown that proteinase of A. flavipes A17 is capable to activate protein C and Factor X. Extracellular proteinase produced by A. sydowii 1 has greater fibrinolytic activity as compared with proteinases produced by A. flavipes A17 and A. fumigatus D1. 相似文献

The presence of a polysaccharide sheath on the surface of the polar flagellum of Azospirillum brasilense was revelted by immunoelectron microscopy and immunodiffusion analysis with strain-specific antibodies to lipopolysaccharides (LPS). The antigenic identity of A. brasilense Sp245 sheath material and one of the two O-specific polysaccharides of its somatic LPS was demonstrated. The screening effect of the sheath in respect to flagellin was determined by agglutination tests and by the inhibition of azospirilla motility in liquid and semisolid agarized media caused by strain-specific antibodies to LPS; no pronounced effect of genus-specific antibodies to flagellin was observed. 相似文献

The rise of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic bacteria is endangering the efficacy of antibiotics, which consequently results in greater use of silver as a biocide. Chromosomal mapping of the Cus system or plasmid encoded Sil system and their relationship with silver resistance was studied for several gram-negative bacteria. However, only few reports investigated silver detoxification mediated by the Sil system integrated in Escherichia coli chromosome. Accordingly, this work aimed to study the Sil system in E. coli ATCC 8739 and to produce evidence for its role in silver resistance development. Silver resistance was induced in E. coli ATCC 8739 by stepwise passage in culture media containing increasing concentrations of AgNO3. The published genome of E. coli ATCC 8739 contains a region showing strong homology to the Sil system genes. The role of this region in E. coli ATCC 8739 was assessed by monitoring the expression of silC upon silver stress, which resulted in a 350-fold increased expression. De novo sequencing of the whole genome of a silver resistant strain derived from E. coli ATCC 8739 revealed mutations in ORFs putative for SilR and CusR. The silver resistant strain (E. coli AgNO3R) showed constitutive expression of silC which posed a cost of fitness resulting in retarded growth. Furthermore, E. coli AgNO3R exhibited cross-resistance to ciprofloxacin and a slightly increased tolerance to ampicillin. This study demonstrates that E. coli is able to develop resistance to silver, which may pose a threat towards an effective use of silver compounds as antiseptics. 相似文献

This study analyzes the effects of procyanidin B2 on early wheat plant growth and plant biochemical responses promoted by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) derived from the rhizobacteria Azospirillum brasilense Sp245. Measurements of leaf, root length, fresh weight, and dry weight showed in vitro plant growth stimulation 4 days after treatment with A. brasilense as well as LPS. Superoxide anion (O2 ·?) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels increased in seedling roots treated with LPS (100 μg mL?1). The chlorophyll content in leaf decreased while the starch content increased 24 h after treatment in seedling roots. The LPS treatment induced a high increase in total peroxidase (POX) (EC 1.11.1.7) activity and ionically bound cell wall POX content in roots, when compared to respective controls. Early plant growth and biochemical responses observed in wheat seedlings treated with LPS were inhibited by the addition of procyanidin B2 (5 μg mL?1), a B type proanthocyanidin (PAC), plant-derived polyphenolic compound with binding properties of LPS. All results suggest first that the ionically bound cell wall POX enzymes could be a molecular target of A. brasilense LPS, and second that the recognition or association of LPS by plant cells is required to activate plant responses. This last event could play a critical role during plant growth regulation by A. brasilense LPS. 相似文献
