Nitrile-Degrading Bacteria Isolated from Compost

Nitriles are a diverse group of organic compounds with –C≡N as functional group. Most nitriles are slightly cytotoxic but some cause severe toxic effects. More than 120 naturally occurring nitriles without considering cyanogenic glycosides are present in terrestrial and marine habitats, especially in plant components such as almonds or other fruit pits. The most common group of naturally occurr...

Improving the Nutritional Value of Ziziphus Spina-Christi using Degrading Bacteria Isolated from the Rumen

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Tannins have many limiting effects on consumption, nutrient digestion, growth and performance, palatability. There are many plants and by-products that are limited in animal feed due to the high content of anti-nutritional compounds such as tannins. The use of methods that can reduce the amount of these compounds will allow their use in animal feed...

Characterization of Aromatic Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacteria Isolated from Pine Litter

Using a novel pine needle agar, fifteen bacterial species were isolated from pine litter. These bacteria were able to degrade aromatic hydrocarbons derived from lignin and utilize the ortho-cleavage of the β-ketoadipate pathway to degrade protocatechuate or catechol. A different utilization array of aromatic hydrocarbons by these bacteria was also determined. This study provides the information...
