Yadav R, Pandey V, Yadav SK, Khare P. Comparative evaluation of biodegradation of chlorpyrifos by various bacterial strains: Kinetics and pathway elucidation. PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2024; 203:105989. [PMID: 39084792 DOI: 10.1016/j.pestbp.2024.105989] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
The present study focused on the isolation and identification of CP and TCP bacteria degrading bacteria from the rhizospheric zone of aromatic grasses i.e. palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii (Roxb. Wats), lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) and vetiver (Chrysopogon zizaniodes (L.) Nash.). So that these isolates alone or in combination with the vegetation of aromatic grasses will be used to clean up CP-contaminated soils. The study also explored enzymatic activities, CO2 release, dechlorination potential, and degradation pathways of bacterial strains. A total of 53 CP-tolerant bacteria were isolated on their physical characteristics and their ability to degrade CP. The ten highly CP-tolerant isolates were Pseudomonas aeruginosa Pa608, three strains of Pseudomonas hibiscicola R4-721 from different rhizosphere, Enterococcus lectis PP2a, Pseudomonas monteilii NBFPALD_RAS131, Enterobacter cloacae L3, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia PEG-390, Escherichia coli ABRL132, and Escherichia coli O104:H4 strain FWSEC0009. The CO2 emission and phosphatase activities of the isolates varied from 3.1 to 8.6 μmol mL-1 and 12.3 to 31 μmol PNP h-1, respectively in the CP medium. The degradation kinetics of CP by these isolates followed a one-phase decay model with a dissipation rate ranging from 0.048 to 0.41 d-1 and a half-life of 1.7-14.3 days. The growth data fitted in the SGompertz equation showed a growth rate (K) of 0.21 ± 0.28 to 0.91 ± 0.33 d-1. The P. monteilii strain had a faster growth rate while E. coli ABRL132 had slower growth among the isolates. The rate of TCP accumulation calculated by the SGompertz equation was 0.21 ± 0.02 to 1.18 ± 0.19 d-1. The Pseudomonas monteilii showed a lower accumulation rate of TCP. Among these, four highly effective isolates were Pseudomonas aeruginosa Pa608, Pseudomonas monteilii NBFPALD_RAS131, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia PEG-390, and Pseudomonas hibiscicola R4-721. Illustrations of the degradation pathways indicated that the difference in metabolic pathways of each isolate was associated with their growth rate, phosphatase, dehydrogenase, oxidase, and dechlorination activities.

Abstract
The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a safety assessment approach for microorganisms intended for use in food or feed chains. In the period covered by this statement, no new information was found that would change the status of previously recommended QPS TUs. The TUs in the QPS list were updated based on a verification, against their respective authoritative databases, of the correctness of the names and completeness of synonyms. A new procedure has been established to ensure the TUs are kept up to date in relation to recent taxonomical insights. Of 83 microorganisms notified to EFSA between October 2023 and March 2024 (47 as feed additives, 25 as food enzymes or additives, 11 as novel foods), 75 were not evaluated because: 15 were filamentous fungi, 1 was Enterococcus faecium, 10 were Escherichia coli, 1 was a Streptomyces (all excluded from the QPS evaluation) and 48 were TUs that already have a QPS status. Two of the other eight notifications were already evaluated for a possible QPS status in the previous Panel Statement: Heyndrickxia faecalis (previously Weizmannia faecalis) and Serratia marcescens. One was notified at genus level so could not be assessed for QPS status. The other five notifications belonging to five TUs were assessed for possible QPS status. Akkermansia muciniphila and Actinomadura roseirufa were still not recommended for QPS status due to safety concerns. Rhizobium radiobacter can be recommended for QPS status with the qualification for production purposes. Microbacterium arborescens and Burkholderia stagnalis cannot be included in the QPS list due to a lack of body of knowledge for its use in the food and feed chain and for B. stagnalis also due to safety concerns. A. roseirufa and B. stagnalis have been excluded from further QPS assessment.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a highly toxic phosphate-rich organic pesticide (OP), identified as an emerging contaminant and used extensively in agricultural production. CPF persistence in the environment and its potential health hazards has become increasingly concerning worldwide in recent years due to exponential rise in food demand. Biodegradation of chlorpyrifos by microbial cultures is a promising approach to reclaiming contaminated soil and aquatic environments. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current understanding of microbiological aspects of xenobiotic chlorpyrifos biodegradation, including microbial diversity, metabolic pathways, and factors that modulate it. In both aerobic and anaerobic environments, CPF is biochemically broken down by a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi. Hydrolysis, dehalogenation, and oxidation of chlorpyrifos are all enzymatic reactions that lead to its degradation. Biodegradation rate and efficiency are strongly influenced by parametric variables such as co-substrates abundance, pH, temperature, and initial chlorpyrifos concentration. The review provides evidence that microbial biodegradation is a viable method for remediating chlorpyrifos-contaminated sites in a sustainable and safe manner.

Abstract
Organophosphates are the most extensively used class of pesticides to deal with increasing pest diversity and produce more on limited terrestrial areas to feed the ever-expanding global population. Profenofos, an organophosphate group of non-systematic insecticides and acaricides, is used to combat aphids, cotton bollworms, tobacco budworms, beet armyworms, spider mites, and lygus bugs. Profenofos was inducted into the system as a replacement for chlorpyrifos due to its lower toxicity and half-life. It has become a significant environmental concern due to its widespread presence. It accumulates in various environmental components, contaminating food, water, and air. As a neurotoxic poison, it inhibits acetylcholinesterase receptor activity, leading to dizziness, paralysis, and pest death. It also affects other eukaryotes, such as pollinators, birds, mammals, and invertebrates, affecting ecosystem functioning. Microbes directly expose themselves to profenofos and adapt to these toxic compounds over time. Microbes use these toxic compounds as carbon and energy sources and it is a sustainable and economical method to eliminate profenofos from the environment. This article explores the studies and developments in the bioremediation of profenofos, its impact on plants, pollinators, and humans, and the policies and laws related to pesticide regulation. The goal is to raise awareness about the global threat of profenofos and the role of policymakers in managing pesticide mismanagement.

BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 2024:1611871.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CP) is a chlorinated organophosphate pesticide. In Kenya, it is commonly used as an acaricide, particularly in dairy farming, leading to soil and water contamination. The study is aimed at isolating bacteria with CP-degrading potential and optimizing their growth conditions, including temperature, pH, and CP concentration. The enrichment culture technique was used, with minimal salt medium (MSM) supplemented with commercial grade CP. A multilevel factorial design was used to investigate the interactions of temperature, pH, and CP concentration. According to the findings, seven bacterial strains with potential to degrade CP were characterized and identified as Alcaligenes faecalis, Bacillus weihenstephanensis, Bacillus toyonensis, Alcaligenes sp. strain SCAU23, Pseudomonas sp. strain PB845W, Brevundimonas diminuta, and uncultured bacterium clone 99. Growth and biodegradation of bacteria differed significantly among the isolates across pH value, temperature, and concentrations (P ≤ 0.05). The optimum conditions for growth were pH 7, temperature of 25°C, and 25mg/l chlorpyrifos concentration, while optimum degradation conditions were pH 5, temp 25°C, and CP conc. 25mg/l. The Pearson correlation between optimum growth and degradation showed a weak positive relationship (R = 0.1144) for pH and strong positive relationship for temperature and concentration of chlorpyrifos. Other than pH, the study shows that there could be other cofactors facilitating the chlorpyrifos degradation process. The findings show that an efficient consortium, at 25°C and pH 5, can include Bacillus toyonensis 20SBZ2B and Alcaligenes sp. SCAU23 as they showed high optical density (OD) values under these conditions. These results indicate the potential for these bacteria to be employed in chlorpyrifos-contaminated ecosystem detoxification efforts upon manipulation of natural growth conditions. The findings of this study offer a potential foundation for future research into the reconstitution of a consortium. Based on the optimum conditions identified, the isolated bacterial strains could be further developed into a consortium to effectively degrade CP in both laboratory and field conditions. Dairy farmers can utilize the isolated strains and the consortia to decontaminate farm soils.

Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CP) is an extensively used organophosphate (OP) pesticide that inhibits the biogeochemical cycle with subsequent loss of soil fertility. In this view, indigenous soil bacteria with significant CP degradation capacity were identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa RNC3 and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia RNC7 through 16 S rRNA. The optimum values of independent variables for CP degradation were found to be 30 ℃, pH 7, 100 mgL-1 of CP, and 1 OD600 cell culture. RNC3 and RNC7 showed 82.5 mgL-1 and 77.1 mgL-1 CP degradation within 5 days. A Michaelis-Menten kinetic model estimated the degradation rate (Vmax) and substrate binding affinity (Ks) for RNC3 were 1.23 mgL-1h-1 and 123 mgL-1 whereas for RNC7 as 1.19 mgL-1h -1 and 124.3 mgL-1, respectively. The major metabolites 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) and 2-hydroxy pyridine were identified during CP degradation by RNC3 whereas, only TCP by RNC7 using GC-MS. Key enzymes encoded by opd and opch2 genes were annotated in the genomes of RNC3 and RNC7 along with the set of putative degradation genes (tcp, yieH, pho, prp). Protein-ligand docking between OPCH2 and CP found - 7.9 kcal mol -1 as a high binding affinity with the conserved catalytic triad (Ser155-Asp251-His281) in the active site. The study suggests that RNC3 can completely mineralize CP, whereas both strains have shown robust degradation ability of OP group of pesticides. The potential of rapid acclimatization to natural soil environment and non-virulent nature of the selected strains are beneficial for in situ application. Thus, selected indigenous strains can be applied for the bioremediation of OP-contaminated soil.

Abstract
Increased anthropogenic activities are confronted as the main cause for rising environmental and health concerns globally, presenting an indisputable threat to both environment and human well-being. Modern-day industrialization has given rise to a cascade of concurrent environmental and health challenges. The global human population is growing at an alarming rate, posing tremendous pressure on future food security, and healthy and environmentally sustainable diets for all. To feed all, the global food production needs to increase by 50% by 2050, but this increase has to occur from the limited arable land, and under the present-day climate variabilities. Pesticides have become an integral component of contemporary agricultural system, safeguarding crops from pests and diseases and their use must be reduce to fulfill the SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) agenda . However, their indiscriminate use, lengthy half-lives, and high persistence in soil and aquatic ecosystems have impacted global sustainability, overshot the planetary boundaries and damaged the pure sources of life with severe and negative impacts on environmental and human health. Here in this review, we have provided an overview of the background of pesticide use and pollution status and action strategies of top pesticide-using nations. Additionally, we have summarized biosensor-based methodologies for the rapid detection of pesticide residue. Finally, omics-based approaches and their role in pesticide mitigation and sustainable development have been discussed qualitatively. The main aim of this review is to provide the scientific facts for pesticide management and application and to provide a clean, green, and sustainable environment for future generations.

Abstract
The abuse of chlorpyrifos (CHP), a commonly used organophosphorus pesticide, has caused many environmental pollution problems, especially its toxicological effects on non-target organisms. First, CHP enriched on the surface of plants enters ecosystem circulation along the food chain. Second, direct inflow of CHP into the water environment under the action of rainwater runoff inevitably causes toxicity to non-target organisms. Therefore, we used rats as a model to establish a CHP exposure toxicity model and studied the effects of CHP in rats. In addition, to alleviate and remove the injuries caused by residual chlorpyrifos in vivo, we explored the alleviation effect of chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) on CHP toxicity in rats by exploiting its high water solubility and natural biological activity. The results showed that CHP can induce the toxicological effects of intestinal antioxidant changes, inflammation, apoptosis, intestinal barrier damage, and metabolic dysfunction in rats, and COS has excellent removal and mitigation effects on the toxic damage caused by residual CHP in the environment. In summary, COS showed significant biological effects in removing and mitigating blood biochemistry, antioxidants, inflammation, apoptosis, gut barrier structure, and metabolic function changes induced by residual CHP in the environment.

Abstract
Ongoing and extensive use of pesticides negatively impact the environment and human health. Microbe-based remediation bears importance as it is an eco-friendly and cost-effective technique. The present study investigated chlorpyrifos (CHL) and glyphosate (GLY) degrading potential of Bacillus cereus AKAD 3-1, isolated from the soybean rhizosphere. Optimization and validation of different process variables were carried out by response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN). Critical parameters which affect the degradation process are initial pesticide concentration, pH, and inoculum size. At optimum conditions, the bacterial strain demonstrated 94.52% and 83.58% removal of chlorpyrifos and glyphosate, respectively. Both Central-composite design (CCD-RSM) and ANN approaches proved to perform well in modeling and optimizing the growth conditions. The optimum ANN-GA model resulted in R2 ≥ 0.99 for chlorpyrifos and glyphosate, while in the case of RSM, the obtained R2 value was 0.96 and 0.95, respectively. Results indicated that the process variables significantly (p < 0.05) impact chlorpyrifos and glyphosate biodegradation. Moreover, the predicted RSM model had a "lack of fit p-value" of "0.8849" and "0.2502" for chlorpyrifos and glyphosate, respectively. GC-MS analysis revealed that the strain first converted chlorpyrifos into 3,5,6-trichloro pyridin-2-ol & O, O-diethyl O-hydrogen phosphorothiate. Later, these intermediate metabolites were broken and completely mineralized into non-toxic by-products. Similarly, glyphosate was first converted into 2-(methylamino) acetic acid and amino-oxyphosphonic acid, which were further mineralized without any toxic by-products. Taken together, the results of this study clarify the biodegradation pathways and highlights the promising potential of B. cereus AKAD 3-1 in the bioremediation of chlorpyrifos and glyphosate-polluted environments.

[PMID: 36677512 PMCID: PMC9861835 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms11010220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
This work provides the basis for implementing a continuous treatment system using a bacterial consortium for wastewater containing a pesticide mixture of iprodione (IPR) and chlorpyrifos (CHL). Two bacterial strains (Achromobacter spanius C1 and Pseudomonas rhodesiae C4) isolated from the biomixture of a biopurification system were able to efficiently remove pesticides IPR and CHL at different concentrations (10 to 100 mg L-1) from the liquid medium as individual strains and free consortium. The half-life time (T1/2) for IPR and CHL was determined for individual strains and a free bacterial consortium. However, when the free bacterial consortium was used, a lower T1/2 was obtained, especially for CHL. Based on these results, an immobilized bacterial consortium was formulated with each bacterial strain encapsulated individually in alginate beads. Then, different inoculum concentrations (5, 10, and 15% w/v) of the immobilized consortium were evaluated in batch experiments for IPR and CHL removal. The inoculum concentration of 15% w/v demonstrated the highest pesticide removal. Using this inoculum concentration, the packed-bed bioreactor with an immobilized bacterial consortium was operated in continuous mode at different flow rates (30, 60, and 90 mL h-1) at a pesticide concentration of 50 mg L-1 each. The performance in the bioreactor demonstrated that it is possible to efficiently remove a pesticide mixture of IPR and CHL in a continuous system. The metabolites 3,5-dichloroaniline (3,5-DCA) and 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) were produced, and a slight accumulation of TCP was observed. The bioreactor was influenced by TCP accumulation but was able to recover performance quickly. Finally, after 60 days of operation, the removal efficiency was 96% for IPR and 82% for CHL. The findings of this study demonstrate that it is possible to remove IPR and CHL from pesticide-containing wastewater in a continuous system.

Raj A, Kumar A. Recent advances in assessment methods and mechanism of microbe-mediated chlorpyrifos remediation. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 214:114011. [PMID: 35985484 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.114011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2022] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Chlorpyrifos (CP) is one of the Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) primarily used in agriculture to safeguard crops from pests and diseases. The pervasive use of chlorpyrifos is hazardous to humans and the environment as it inhibits the receptor for acetylcholinesterase activity, leading to abnormalities linked to the central nervous system. Hence, there is an ardent need to develop an effective and sustainable approach to the on-site degradation of chlorpyrifos. The role of microbes in the remediation of pesticides is considered the most effective and eco-friendly approach, as they have strong degradative potential due to their gene and enzymes naturally adapted to these sites. Several reports have previously been published on exploring the role of microbes in the degradation of CP. However, detection of CP as an environmental contaminant is an essential prerequisite for developing an efficient microbial-mediated biodegradation method with less harmful intermediates. Most of the articles published to date discuss the fate and impact of CP in the environment along with its degradation mechanism but still fail to discuss the analytical portion. This review is focused on the latest developments in the field of bioremediation of CP along with its physicochemical properties, toxicity, fate, and conventional (UV-Visible spectrophotometer, FTIR, NMR, GC-MS, etc) and advanced detection methods (Biosensors and immunochromatography-based methods) from different environmental samples. Apart from it, this review explores the role of metagenomics, system biology, in-silico tools, and genetic engineering in facilitating the bioremediation of CP. One of the objectives of this review is to educate policymakers with scientific data that will enable the development of appropriate strategies to reduce pesticide exposure and the harmful health impacts on both Human and other environmental components. Moreover, this review provides up-to-date developments related to the sustainable remediation of CP.

Abstract
The Himalayas are one of the most mystical, yet least studied terrains of the world. One of Earth's greatest multifaceted and diverse montane ecosystems is also one of the thirty-four global biodiversity hotspots of the world. These are supposed to have been uplifted about 60-70 million years ago and support, distinct environments, physiography, a variety of orogeny, and great biological diversity (plants, animals, and microbes). Microbes are the pioneer colonizer of the Himalayas that are involved in various bio-geological cycles and play various significant roles. The applications of Himalayan microbiomes inhabiting in lesser to greater Himalayas have been recognized. The researchers explored the applications of indigenous microbiomes in both agricultural and environmental sectors. In agriculture, microbiomes from Himalayan regions have been suggested as better biofertilizers and biopesticides for the crops growing at low temperature and mountainous areas as they help in the alleviation of cold stress and other biotic stresses. Along with alleviation of low temperature, Himalayan microbes also have the capability to enhance plant growth by availing the soluble form of nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, and iron. These microbes have been recognized for producing plant growth regulators (abscisic acid, auxin, cytokinin, ethylene, and gibberellins). These microbes have been reported for bioremediating the diverse pollutants (pesticides, heavy metals, and xenobiotics) for environmental sustainability. In the current perspectives, present review provides a detailed discussion on the ecology, biodiversity, and adaptive features of the native Himalayan microbiomes in view to achieve agro-environmental sustainability.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 841:156758. [PMID: 35718171 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.156758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Revised: 06/10/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Carbon isotope analysis and the 16S rDNA sequencing were adopted to investigate the degradation process of chlorpyrifos during its transport in the integrated constructed wetland (ICW). Firstly, the extent of concentration decrease of chlorpyrifos was examined, and the removal efficiency in the first 36 h was found to be the highest. The removal rate reached 96.83 % after 96 h, and this process fit to the first-order kinetic model, with a kinetic constant (k) of 0.066 h-1. A significant carbon isotope fractionation was observed, with a change of the δ13C values from -26.54 ± 0.07 ‰ to -25.41 ± 0.08 ‰. The average chlorpyrifos biodegradation proportion reached 71.23 % (60.42 %-85.04 %), and it was predicted that about 11.79 %-36.41 % of chlorpyrifos removal in the ICW was attributed to abiotic factors. The outlet of the subsurface flow constructed wetland saw the highest D∗/B∗ value (1.38-3.88), indicating that the remaining fraction of dilution was much more significant than that of degradation in this period. The top 20 phyla of microbial community were identified in the ICW. Proteobacteria was the most dominant phylum, accounting for >40 % of the bacterial communities in all sampling locations. Acidobacteria and Bacteroidetes were the second and third dominant phyla. At the genus level, the microbial community composition differed more greatly in every stage of the ICW, and the spatial distribution difference was quite significant in the ICW. This study is important to figure out the migration and transformation of chlorpyrifos when the ICW was adopted as a removal tool for organic micro-pollutants, and more similar studies could be carried out in the future to promote the evaluation of pollutant removal capacity of the ICWs, and to further develop the application of stable isotope analysis of compounds in the natural environment.

Abstract
The indiscriminate use of organophosphate insecticide chlorpyrifos in agricultural crops causes significant soil and water pollution and poses a serious threat to the global community. In this study, a microbial consortium ERM C-1 containing bacterial strains Pseudomonas putida T7, Pseudomonas aeruginosa M2, Klebsiella pneumoniae M6, and a fungal strain Aspergillus terreus TF1 was developed for the effective degradation of chlorpyrifos. Results revealed that microbial strains were not only utilizing chlorpyrifos (500 mg L-1) but also coupled with plant growth-promoting characteristics and laccase production. PGP traits, that is, IAA (35.53, 45.53, 25.19, and 25.53 μg mL-1), HCN (19.85, 17.85, 12.18, and 9.85 μg mL-1), and ammonium (14.73, 16.73, 8.05, and 10.87 μg mL-1) production, and potassium (49.53, 66.72, 46.14, and 52.72 μg mL-1), phosphate (52.37, 63.89, 33.33, and 71.89 μg mL-1), and zinc (29.75, 49.75, 49.12, and 57.75 μg mL-1) solubilization tests were positive for microbial strains T7, M2, M6, and TF1, respectively. The laccase activity by ERM C-1 was estimated as 37.53, 57.16, and 87.57 enzyme U mL-1 after 5, 10, and 15 days of incubation, respectively. Chlorpyrifos degradation was associated with ERM C-1 and laccase activity, and the degree of enzyme activity was higher in the consortium than in individual strains. The biodegradation study with developed consortium ERM C-1 showed a decreased chlorpyrifos concentration from the 7th day of incubation (65.77% degradation) followed by complete disappearance (100% degradation) after the 30th day of incubation in the MS medium. First-order degradation kinetics with a linear model revealed a high k -day value and low t 1/2 value in ERM C-1. The results of HPLC and GC-MS analysis proved that consortium ERM C-1 was capable of completely removing chlorpyrifos by co-metabolism mechanism.

Abstract
AllyMax is a widely used herbicide formulation in wheat-rice cropping areas of the world. The residues of its active ingredients, tribenuron methyl (TBM) and metsulfuron methyl (MET), persist in soil and water as co-contaminants, and cause serious threats to nontarget organisms. This study was performed to assess the potential of a bacterial consortium for the degradation and detoxification of TBM and MET individually and as co-contaminants. A bacterial consortium (B2R), comprising Bacillus cereus SU-1, Bacillus velezensis OS-2, and Rhodococcus rhodochrous AQ1, capable of degrading TBM and MET in liquid cultures was developed. Biodegradation of TBM and MET was optimized using the Taguchi design of experiment. Optimum degradation of both TBM and MET was obtained at pH 7 and 37 °C. Regarding media composition, optimum degradation of TBM and MET was obtained in minimal salt medium (MSM) supplemented with glucose, and MSM without glucose, respectively. The consortium simultaneously degraded TBM and MET (94.8 and 80.4%, respectively) in cultures containing the formulation AllyMax, where TBM and MET existed as co-contaminants at 2.5 mg/L each. Mass spectrometry analysis confirmed that during biodegradation, TBM and MET were metabolized into simpler compounds. Onion (Allium cepa) root inhibition and Comet assays revealed that the bacterial consortium B2R detoxified TBM and MET separately and as co-contaminants. The consortium B2R can potentially be used for the remediation of soil and water co-contaminated with TBM and MET.

Abstract
Many microorganisms have been reported to degrade organic pollutants in the environment and plants, however, the specific information about the effect of organic pollutants on the metabolism of microorganisms is poorly investigated. In the present study, the effect of the pesticide chlorpyrifos on the metabolic profiling of Bacillus megaterium strain RRB was investigated using metabolomics. Our data show that chlorpyrifos acting as an energy source was readily concentrated in the strain RRB from the culture medium. During early cultivation, the shift in energy sources from tryptic soy broth to chlorpyrifos may temporarily cause the strain RRB to enter the starvation stage, where some synthesis-related amino acids and intermediates in the pathways of TCA cycle and pyridoxine metabolism were decreased. The increase of nucleotides and lysine may help the strain RRB cope with the starvation stage. During later cultivation, many metabolites including organic acids, nucleosides and sugar phosphates were gradually accumulated, which indicates that chlorpyrifos could be utilized by the stain RRB to generate metabolites bacteria needed. In addition, arginine acting as a nitrogen-storage amino acid was gradually decreased with later cultivation, suggesting that chlorpyrifos could not provide enough nitrogen for bacteria.

Abstract
Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is a widespread and persistent pollutant in the environment. Although the screening and analysis of SMX-degrading bacteria have been documented, the interaction mechanisms of functional microorganisms are still poorly understood. This study constructed a consortium with strain YL1 and YL2 supplied with SMX as the sole carbon and energy source. The coexisting mechanism and the removal of SMX of the consortium were investigated. The total oxidizable carbon (TOC) removal rate of the combined bacterial system was 38.94% compared to 29.45% for the single bacterial system at the same biomass. The mixed bacterial consortium was able to resist SMX at concentrations up to 400 mg/L and maintained a stable microbial structure at different culture conditions. The optimum conditions found for SMX degradation were 30 °C, pH 7.0, a shaking speed of 160 r·min−1, and an initial SMX concentration of 200 mg·L−1. The degradation of SMX was accelerated by the addition of YL2 for its ability to metabolize the key intermediate, 4-aminophenol. The removal rate of 4-aminophenol by strain YL2 reached 19.54% after 5 days. Genome analysis revealed that adding riboflavin and enhancing the reducing capacity might contribute to the degradation of SMX. These results indicated that it is important for the bioremediation of antibiotic-contaminated aquatic systems to understand the metabolism of bacterial communities.
