Isolation and Characterization of a Bacterial Isolate for Polyhydroxyalkanoates Production
نویسندگان
چکیده
Microorganism accumulating polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) in its cytosol was isolated from water obtained from InCheon area. This strain was determined to be Bacillus species that was examined by 16S rDNA sequences and phylogenetic tree analysis. The bacteria accumulated up to 20.6% of PHA within 48 hours at 37 o C in the presence of 2.0% glucose substrate under aerobic condition. The present work also investigates the influence of substrate on PHA production to find a clue trigger. The PHA accumulation increased to 23.5 and 23.3% containing 2.0% salicylic acid and lactose, respectively. In contrast both glucosamine and xylose have negative effect on PHA production for this bacterial strain. To the best of our knowledge, this report firstly demonstrates the effects of various sugars on PHA production.

Shallow bark canker incited by Brenneria nigrifluens is considered one of the most dangerous diseases which can cause a significant reduction in walnut and timber production. During spring and summer of 2019, walnut gardens were surveyed for symptoms like leaf spot, fruit, and stem canker from four different regions of Golestan province located in Iran. A set of 11 Gram-negative bacteria were ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of plant growth-promoting bacteria from Syrian bean caper (Zygophyllum fabago) rhizosphere
Some rhizobacteria have positive effects on plants growth. Syrian bean-caper (Zygophyllum fabago) is a weed plant with medicinal value. This study was conducted to isolate and identify bacteria from Syrian bean-caper rhizosphere. Characteristics associated with plant growth stimulation, such as phosphate and zinc dissolution, production of Indole acetic acid and antifungal activity, were invest...
متن کاملIsolation, Screening and Characterization of Hyaluronidase Producing Bacteria
Hyaluronidase has a panoramic use in biotechnology processes and therapy due to its therapeutic, pathophysiological, physiological and biological importance. Since much of the preparations of hyaluronidases are from animal source (bovine and ovine testicular sources) with limited sources of microbial origin, that prompted the authors to screen and isolate a new promising bacterial strain ...
متن کاملIsolation, identification and characterization of thermo-tolerant acetic acid bacteria for semi-continuous acetous fermentation at high temperature
Nowadays, vinegar is industrially produced by mesophilic acetic acid bacteria (AAB). However, temperature fluctuation during acetous fermentation is inevitable, and may cause process disturbances. This can be mostly avoided using thermo-tolerant AAB. The main purpose of the present study was to isolate thermo-tolerant AAB. Fermentation performances were then evaluated. Twenty-eight different is...
