ABSTRACT: Chronic responses of aerobic granules to polyvinyl chloride microplastics in a sequencing batch reactor performing simultaneous carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus removal
Project description:Polyphosphate accumulating organisms are responsible for enhanced biological phosphate removal from wastewater, where they grow embedded in a matrix of extracellular polymeric substances. Little is known about the composition and dynamics of those proteins and their production by the different microorganisms. Tomás-Martínez et al., (2022) studied the turnover of proteins and polysaccharides in extracellular polymeric fractions of an enrichment culture of polyphosphate accumulating organisms using an anaerobic-aerobic sequencing batch reactor simulating EBPR conditions. Finally, the carbon source was switched to 13C-labelled acetate to study the protein turnover. Samples were collected at the end of each aerobic phase.

Project description:The effect of respiration (aerobic cultivation in the presence of heme and vitamin K2) was compared with unsupplemented aerobic cultivation with Lactobacillus plantarum. Two-condition experiment, aerobic vs respiring cells. Biological replicates: 3 aerobic cultures, 3 respiring cultures, independently grown and harvested. One replicate per array. Respiring cultures are called reactor 1-3; Aerobic cultures are called reactor 4-6 In the subsequent analysis data from reactor 4 were not used. There was likely a mistake made during quenching. This was concluded as new labeling/hybridisation gave same (bad) results (128a); slide 128b was dye-swap.
Project description:The ability of Microlunatus phosphovorus to accumulate large amounts of polyphosphate (Poly-P) plays an important role in removing soluble phosphorus from wastewater. Our analyses indicate that Microlunatus phosphovorus accumulates Poly-P under aerobic conditions but releases phosphorus under anaerobic conditions. To determine the mechanisms underlying Poly-P metabolism, we compared transcriptional profiles under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Significant differences were detected in the expression levels of genes associated with Poly-P metabolism between aerobic and anaerobic conditions. These findings enhance our understanding of phosphate metabolism in a major bacterial species involved in wastewater phosphorus reduction.
