Bioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Seawater: Prospects of Using Lyophilized Native Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria. Microorganisms 2021; 9:2285.

Abstract
This work aimed to develop a bioremediation product of lyophilized native bacteria to respond to marine oil spills. Three oil-degrading bacterial strains (two strains of Rhodococcus erythropolis and one Pseudomonas sp.), isolated from the NW Portuguese coast, were selected for lyophilization after biomass growth optimization (tested with alternative carbon sources). Results indicated that the bacterial strains remained viable after the lyophilization process, without losing their biodegradation potential. The biomass/petroleum ratio was optimized, and the bioremediation efficiency of the lyophilized bacterial consortium was tested in microcosms with natural seawater and petroleum. An acceleration of the natural oil degradation process was observed, with an increased abundance of oil-degraders after 24 h, an emulsion of the oil/water layer after 7 days, and an increased removal of total petroleum hydrocarbons (47%) after 15 days. This study provides an insight into the formulation and optimization of lyophilized bacterial agents for application in autochthonous oil bioremediation.

Complete characterization of new isolates of Neptunomonas phycophila leads to emend its description and opens possibilities of biotechnological applications. Microbiologyopen 2017; 6.

Abstract
Five strains were isolated from gonad of Great scallop (Pecten maximus) broodstock in a Norwegian hatchery. The study of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that these isolates belong to Neptunomonas phycophila, a bacterium originally isolated from a symbiont of the anemone Aiptasia tagetes from Puerto Rico. The gyrB and rpoB genes sequences confirmed the affiliation of the scallop isolates to this species. Phenotypic characterization was performed and some differences between the Norwegian isolates and the type strain of N. phycophila were detected, such as ranges of temperature, pH, and tolerance to salinity or the use of several substrates as sole carbon source which lead to an emended description of the species. The strain 3CM2.5 showed phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol as the major polar lipids. The whole genomes of the scallop strain 3CM2.5 and type strain of the species CECT 8716T were obtained and the annotation of these genomes revealed the presence of genes involved in degradation of aromatic compounds in both strains. Results obtained not only widen the geographical and host ranges of N. phycophila, but also point out possible biotechnological applications for this bacterial species.
