Metagenomic data of free cyanide and thiocyanate degrading bacterial communities
نویسندگان
چکیده
The data presented in this article contains the bacterial community structure of the free cyanide (CN-) and thiocyanate (SCN-) degrading organisms that were isolated from electroplating wastewater and synthetic SCN- containing wastewater. PCR amplification of the 16S rRNA V1-V3 regions was undertaken using the 27F and 518R oligonucleotide primers following the metacommunity DNA extraction procedure. The PCR amplicons were processed using the illumina® reaction kits as per manufacturer׳s instruction and sequenced using the illumina® MiSeq-2000, using the MiSeq V3 kit. The data was processed using bioinformatics tools such as QIIME and the raw sequence files are available via NCBI׳s Sequence Read Archive (SRA) database.

Free cyanide and thiocyanate biodegradation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa STK 03 capable of heterotrophic nitrification under alkaline conditions
An alkali-tolerant bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa STK 03 (accession number KR011154), isolated from an oil spill site, was evaluated for the biodegradation of free cyanide and thiocyanate under alkaline conditions. The organism had a free cyanide degradation efficiency of 80 and 32 % from an initial concentration of 250 and 450 mg CN-/L, respectively. Additionally, the organism was able to d...
متن کاملCombination of cassava flour cyanide and urinary thiocyanate measurements of school children in Mozambique.
The maximum daily cassava flour intake of children may be calculated from determination of the total cyanide content of cassava flour and urinary thiocyanate levels of school children in samples collected at the same time and place. Four sites, two with and two without recent konzo cases, were chosen for study. In two sites with recent konzo cases, 84% and 93% of school children consumed cassav...
متن کاملGenome‐resolved metagenomics of a bioremediation system for degradation of thiocyanate in mine water containing suspended solid tailings
Thiocyanate (SCN- ) is a toxic compound that forms when cyanide (CN- ), used to recover gold, reacts with sulfur species. SCN- -degrading microbial communities have been studied, using bioreactors fed synthetic wastewater. The inclusion of suspended solids in the form of mineral tailings, during the development of the acclimatized microbial consortium, led to the selection of an active plankton...
متن کاملThe Conversion of Thiocyanate Sulfur to Sulfate in the White Rat*
l:lle or&n and fate of thiocyanate ion in the body have been of interest for more than a century. It has been generally accepted that the ion does not readily permeate normal cell membranes; t.hc distribution of thiocyanate ion in the body is the basis of a method for determination of extracellular fluid volume (1). Despite its assumed extracellular localization, thiocyanate ion is physiologica...
متن کاملAccumulation of cyanide and thiocyanate in haemodialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Cyanide is a toxic agent, and its detoxification product, thiocyanate, may be a major pathogenetic substance in uraemia. Recent studies examining the myeloperoxidase(MPO)/thiocyanate system have suggested a link between thiocyanate and atherosclerosis. However, inaccuracies in conventional assays for cyanide and thiocyanate have limited the understanding of their metabolism in haemod...
