Population dynamics within a microbial consortium during growth on diesel fuel in saline environments.
The diversity and dynamics of a bacterial community extracted from an exploited oil field with high natural soil salinity near Comodoro Rivadavia in Patagonia (Argentina) were investigated. Community shifts during long-term incubation with diesel fuel at four salinities between 0 and 20% NaCl were monitored by single-strand conformation polymorphism community fingerprinting of the PCR-amplified...
متن کاملRapid mineralization of benzo[a]pyrene by a microbial consortium growing on diesel fuel.
A microbial consortium which rapidly mineralized the environmentally persistent pollutant benzo[a]pyrene was recovered from soil. The consortium cometabolically converted [7-(14)C]benzo[a]pyrene to (14)CO(2) when it was grown on diesel fuel, and the extent of benzo[a]pyrene mineralization was dependent on both diesel fuel and benzo[a]pyrene concentrations. Addition of diesel fuel at concentrati...
متن کاملCommunity dynamics within a bacterial consortium during growth on toluene under sulfate-reducing conditions.
A sulfate-reducing bacterial consortium was enriched from an anoxic aquifer contaminated with BTEX compounds, using toluene as a growth substrate. Total cell counts, protein contents and sulfide production were determined to follow growth at the in situ temperature (14 degrees C) and at 25 degrees C, respectively. Community members were identified by 16S rRNA gene cloning and sequencing. Phylog...
متن کاملBiodegradation of diesel fuel by an Azolla-derived bacterial consortium.
The widely distributed water fern Azolla was investigated for use as an amendment in the bioremediation of fuel-contaminated environments. In a field experiment Azolla pinnata as well as Pistia stratiotes and Salvinia molesta were applied to plots containing soil that had been surface-contaminated with diesel fuel (2.4 L m(-2)) and flooded with water. The plants quickly died and bacterial flocs...
متن کاملHigh shear enrichment improves the performance of the anodophilic microbial consortium in a microbial fuel cell
In many microbial bioreactors, high shear rates result in strong attachment of microbes and dense biofilms. In this study, high shear rates were applied to enrich an anodophilic microbial consortium in a microbial fuel cell (MFC). Enrichment at a shear rate of about 120 s(-1) resulted in the production of a current and power output two to three times higher than those in the case of low shear r...
