Biodegradation Potential of Bacillus sp. PAH-2 on PAHs for Oil-Contaminated Seawater.

ABSTRACT: Microbial degradation is a useful tool for inhibiting or preventing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) widely distributed in marine environment after oil spill accidents. This study aimed to evaluate the potential and diversity of bacteria Bacillus sp. PAH-2 on Benzo (a) anthracene (BaA), Pyrene (Pyr), and Benzo (a) pyrene (BaP), their composite system, aromatic components system, and crude oil. The seven-day degradation rates against BaA, Pyr, and BaP were 20.6%, 12.83%, and 17.49%, respectively. Further degradation study of aromatic components demonstrated PAH-2 had a high degradation rate of substances with poor stability of molecular structure. In addition, the degradation of PAHs in crude oil suggested PAH-2 not only made good use of PAHs in such a more complex structure of pollutants but the saturated hydrocarbons in the crude oil also showed a good application potential.

Biodegradation of Mixed PAHs by PAH-Degrading Endophytic Bacteria.

Project description:Endophytic bacteria can promote plant growth, induce plant defence mechanisms, and increase plant resistance to organic contaminants. The aims of the present study were to isolate highly PAH-degrading endophytic bacteria from plants growing at PAH-contaminated sites and to evaluate the capabilities of these bacteria to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in vitro, which will be beneficial for re-colonizing target plants and reducing plant PAH residues through the inoculation of plants with endophytic bacteria. Two endophytic bacterial strains P₁ (Stenotrophomonas sp.) and P₃ (Pseudomonas sp.), which degraded more than 90% of phenanthrene (PHE) within 7 days, were isolated from Conyza canadensis and Trifolium pretense L., respectively. Both strains could use naphthalene (NAP), PHE, fluorene (FLR), pyrene (PYR), and benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) as the sole sources of carbon and energy. Moreover, these bacteria reduced the contamination of mixed PAHs at high levels after inoculation for 7 days; strain P₁ degraded 98.0% NAP, 83.1% FLR, 87.8% PHE, 14.4% PYR, and 1.6% B(a)P, and strain P₃ degraded 95.3% NAP, 87.9% FLR, 90.4% PHE, 6.9% PYR, and negligible B(a)P. Notably, the biodegradation of PAHs could be promoted through additional carbon and nitrogen nutrients; therein, beef extract was suggested as the optimal co-substrate for the degradation of PAHs by these two strains (99.1% PHE was degraded within 7 days). Compared with strain P₁, strain P₃ has more potential for the use in the removal of PAHs from plant tissues. These results provide a novel perspective in the reduction of plant PAH residues in PAH-contaminated sites through inoculating plants with highly PAH-degrading endophytic bacteria.

Potential biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and petroleum hydrocarbons by indigenous fungi recovered from crude oil-contaminated soil in Iran.

Project description:A total of 265 fungal individuals were isolated from soils exposed to heavy oil spills in the Yadavaran oil field in Iran to discover indigenous fungal species with a high potential to biodegrade petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants. Morphological and molecular identification of obtained fungal species led to their assignment into 16 genera and 25 species. Alternaria spp. (78%), Fusarium spp. (5%), and Cladosporium spp. (4%) were the most common genera, along with Penicillium spp., Neocamarosporium spp., Epicoccum sp., Kotlabaea sp., Aspergillus sp., Mortierella sp., and Pleurotus sp. A preliminary screening using the DCPIP indicator revealed that approximately 35% of isolates from Alternaria, Epicoccum, Neocamarosporium, Cladosporium, Fusarium, Stachybotrys, Penicillium, and Stemphylium demonstrated promising tolerance to crude oil. The best-performing isolates (12 fungal individuals) were further investigated for their capacity to mineralize a mixture of four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) for 47 days, quantified by GC-MS. Eventually, two top-performing isolates, namely 5c-12 (Alternaria tenuissima) and 3b-1 (Epicoccum nigrum), were applied to petroleum-contaminated soil. The GC-MS analysis showed that 60 days after inoculation, these isolates successfully degraded more than 70% of the long-chain hydrocarbons in the soil, including C8-C16 n-alkanes, C36 n-alkane, and Pristane. This study introduces two fungal species (5c-12 and 3b-1) with high potential for biodegrading petroleum compounds and PAHs, offering promising prospects for the decontamination of oil-contaminated soil.

Biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in a diesel oil-contaminated mangrove by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria.

Project description:In this study, Rhizophora mangle L. mangrove plants and plant growth-promoting bacteria were evaluated for their ability to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in diesel oil-contaminated sediment. The diesel-contaminated soil was sown with plant growth-promoting bacteria in the R. mangle L. rhizosphere and monitored for 120 days in a greenhouse. The plant growth-promoting bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus sp. were analyzed for their ability to degrade eight priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, achieving a removal rate for naphthalene (80%), acenaphthene (> 60%), anthracene (> 50%), benzo(a)anthracene (> 60%), benzo(a)pyrene (> 50%) and dibenzo(a,h)anthracene (> 90%) in the treatments with and without plants. R. mangle L. demonstrated a removal rate above 50% for acenaphthene and fluoranthene. The bacterial strains promoted the development of the plant propagule in 55% of sediment contaminated with diesel. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the formation of biofilms by the strains in the roots of the plants in contact with the diesel. Thus, the interaction between Rhizophora mangle L. and the bacterial strains (Bacillus sp. and P. aeruginosa) demonstrated the potential of the strains to degrade diesel and bioremediate mangroves impacted by diesel oil.

Isomer-selective biodegradation of high-molecular-weight azaarenes in PAH-contaminated environmental samples.

Project description:Polycyclic aromatic nitrogen heterocycles, or azaarenes, normally co-occur with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in contaminated soils. We recently reported that nontarget analysis using high resolution mass spectrometry of samples from four PAH-contaminated sites revealed a previously unrecognized diversity and abundance of azaarene isomers and their methylated derivatives. Here we evaluated their biodegradability by natural microbial communities from each site in aerobic microcosm incubations under biostimulated conditions. The removal of total quantifiable azaarenes ranged from 15 to 85%, and was related to the initial degree of weathering for each sample. While three-ring azaarenes were readily biodegradable, the five-ring congeners were the most recalcitrant. Microbial-mediated removal of four-ring congeners varied for different isomers, which might be attributed to the position of the nitrogen atom that also influences the physicochemical properties of azaarenes and possibly the susceptibility to transformation by relevant microbial enzymes. The presence of methyl groups also influenced azaarene biodegradability, which decreased with increasing degree of methylation. Several oxidation products of azaarenes were detected, including ketones and dioxygenated derivatives of three- and four-ring compounds. Our results indicate the susceptibility of some azaarenes to bioremediation, while suggesting the potential implications for risk from the persistence of less-biodegradable isomers and the formation of oxidized-azaarene derivatives.

Biodegradation of Crude Oil and Corexit 9500 in Arctic Seawater.

Project description:The need to understand the biodegradation of oil and chemical dispersants in Arctic marine environments is increasing alongside growth in oil exploration and transport in the region. We chemically quantified biodegradation and abiotic losses of crude oil and Corexit 9500, when present separately, in incubations of Arctic seawater and identified microorganisms potentially involved in biodegradation of these substrates based on shifts in bacterial community structure (16S rRNA genes) and abundance of biodegradation genes (GeoChip 5.0 microarray). Incubations were performed over 28-day time courses using surface seawater collected from near-shore and offshore locations in the Chukchi Sea. Within 28 days, the indigenous microbial community biodegraded 36% (k = 0.010 day-1) and 41% (k = 0.014 day-1) of oil and biodegraded 77% and 33% (k = 0.015 day-1) of the Corexit 9500 component dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate (DOSS) in respective near-shore and offshore incubations. Non-ionic surfactants (Span 80, Tween 80, and Tween 85) present in Corexit 9500 were non-detectable by 28 days due to a combination of abiotic losses and biodegradation. Microorganisms utilized oil and Corexit 9500 as growth substrates during the incubation, with the Corexit 9500 stimulating more extensive growth than oil within 28 days. Taxa known to include oil-degrading bacteria (e.g., Oleispira, Polaribacter, and Colwellia) and some oil biodegradation genes (e.g., alkB, nagG, and pchCF) increased in relative abundance in response to both oil and Corexit 9500. These results increase our understanding of oil and dispersant biodegradation in the Arctic and suggest that some bacteria may be capable of biodegrading both oil and Corexit 9500.

Novel pathway of cypermethrin biodegradation in a Bacillus sp. strain SG2 isolated from cypermethrin-contaminated agriculture field.

Project description:Pesticides belonging to pyrethroid group are widely used in agricultural fields to check pest infestation in different crops for enhanced food production. In spite of beneficial effects, non-judicious use of pesticides imposes harmful effect on human health as their residues reach different food materials and ground water via leaching, percolation and bioaccumulation. Looking into the potential of microbial degradation of toxic compounds under natural environment, a cypermethrin-degrading Bacillus sp. was isolated from pesticide-contaminated soil of a rice field of Distt. Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand, India. The bacteria degraded the compound up to 81.6 % within 15 days under standard growth conditions (temperature 32 °C pH 7 and shaking at 116 rpm) in minimal medium. Analysis of intermediate compounds of biodegraded cypermethrin revealed that the bacteria opted a new pathway for cypermethrin degradation. GC-MS analysis of biodegraded cypermethrin showed the presence of 4-propylbenzoate, 4-propylbenzaldehyde, phenol M-tert-butyl and 1-dodecanol, etc. which was not reported earlier in cypermethrin metabolism; hence a novel biodegradation pathway of cypermethrin with Bacillus sp. strain SG2 is proposed in this study.

Biodegradation of PAHs by Burkholderia sp. VITRSB1 Isolated from Marine Sediments.

Project description:The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) pollution to the environment is a major threat to the living organisms, and hence the degradation of these PAHs is necessary. Studies on PAHs degrading bacteria have focussed on terrestrial microbes and the potential of marine derived microbes is undermined. Herein we report the isolation and characterization of PAHs degrading Burkholderia sp. from lagoon sediments collected at the Southern coast of India. The strain was Gram negative, rod-shaped, motile, and ∼2-5 μm in length. Based on the phylogenetic data the strain was identified as Burkholderia and designated as VITRSB1. Initial PAHs degradation ability of the strain was assessed using basal salt medium supplemented with diesel, kerosene, toluene, aniline, naphthalene, and phenol. The strain was found to be effectively degrading kerosene, diesel, toluene, and aniline even at higher concentration (1%). However, naphthalene and aniline were degraded only at lower concentration (0.1%) and phenol, camphor, and DAP inhibited the growth of the strain. Furthermore, the degraded end products of the PAHs were determined using FTIR. Notably, none of the end products were found to be toxic to the biosphere. Our results indicate that the isolated Burkholderia sp. could be a prospective candidate for the effective degradation of selective PAHs.

Expression analysis of Sphingomonas paucimobilis sp. EPA505 during biodegradation kinetics of various PAHs and detection of gene in a contaminated soil S3

Project description:Studying eight enzymes involved in the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from the model strain Sphingomonas paucimobilis sp. EPA505 using a designed microarray of 8,048 probes. During the biodegradation kinetics with phenanthrene, fluoranthene or a mix of both pollutants, we identified the targeted set of genes induced by these pollutants, compared to basal expression detected with glucose. Hybridizing total DNA extracted from S3, we show the efficiency of our probe design to study a complex environment. Despite the relative small size of our probes (23-mers), their sensitivity is reliable as we can detect the presence of genes in this complex mixture. Obtained results are further described in Sébastien Terrat, Eric Peyretaillade, Olivier Gonçalves, Eric Dugat-Bony, Fabrice Gravelat, and Pierre Peyret. 2010 - Studying the ‘Unkown’ with Metabolic Design, a new probe design software for explorative functional microarrays development. Nucleic Acids Research (submited). A 17 chip study was realized using total RNA recovered from separate cultures of Sphingomonas paucimobilis sp. EPA505 with phenanthrene, fluoranthene or a mix of these both pollutants as sole carbon and energy source. A negative kinetic expermient was realized with glucose as sole carbon and energy source. Each chip measures the expression level of 8 genes from Sphingomonas paucimobilis sp. EPA505 with 23-mer probes (a total of 8,048 probes) using a new design approach. We also assess metabolic capacities of microbial communities in an aromatic hydrocarbons contaminated soil named S3. Each probe was spotted in triplicate, and a total of 8,863 random probes was used to determine the background noise.
