Rapid screening for bacteria capable of degrading toxic organic compounds
Routine procedures for isolating and characterizing microorganisms capable of degrading toxic chemicals are time consuming and labor intensive. The objective of this paper is to describe a new method for screening aerobic bacterial isolates and consortia that will rapidly determine metabolic capacity for various toxic chemicals and access the use of various substrates as inducers in the degrada...
متن کاملIsolation and identification of dibutyl phthalate-degrading bacteria from hydrospheres in Tokyo.
Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is used widely as a plasticizer and is thought to negatively affect various organisms. To isolate and investigate DBP-degrading bacteria from hydrospheres in Tokyo, strains were selected on YNB medium containing DBP as the sole carbon source, and candidate strains were identified by zones of clearing around the colonies. Degradation of DBP by the strains was subsequently...
متن کاملAnaerobic metabolism of phthalate and other aromatic compounds by a denitrifying bacterium.
The anaerobic metabolism of phthalate and other aromatic compounds by the denitrifying bacterium Pseudomonas sp. strain P136 was studied. Benzoate, cyclohex-1-ene-carboxylate, 2-hydroxycyclohexanecarboxylate, and pimelate were detected as predominant metabolic intermediates during the metabolism of three isomers of phthalate, m-hydroxybenzoate, p-hydroxybenzoate, and cyclohex-3-ene-carboxylate....
متن کاملVolatile Sulfur Compounds Produced by Methionine Degrading Bacteria and the Relationship to Concrete Corrosion
Biogenic Sulfur Compounds, Gas Chromatography, Concrete Corrosion Pseudomonasßuorescens, Proteus vulgaris, and Serratia marcescens, members o f the microflora of soil and waste water, attacked methionine in the presence o f glucose. The sulfur o f m ethionine was released as methane thiol, dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide. The volatile sulfur com pounds were qualitatively and quantitat...
متن کاملIsolation and Identification of Phenanthrene-degrading Bacteria and Increasing the Biodegrading Ability by Synergistic Relationship
Background: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a large group of oil contaminants with carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects. The release of these compounds in soil destroys animals, plants and microbial diversity and has several negative impacts on physical properties of the soil including the destruction of soil aggregates reduction in pores, and increase in soil bulk density....
