Co-culture of Acinetobacter sp. and Scedosporium sp. immobilized beads for optimized biosurfactant production and degradation of crude oil. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 335:122365. [PMID: 37572849 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023]
Abstract
The widespread exploration and exploitation of crude oil has increased the prevalence of petroleum hydrocarbon pollution in the marine and coastal environment. Bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons using cell immobilization techniques is gaining increasing attention. In this study, the crude oil degradation performance of bacterial and fungal co-culture was optimized by entrapping both cells in sodium-alginate and polyvinyl alcohol composite beads. Results indicate that fungal cells remained active after entrapment and throughout the experiment, while bacterial cells were non-viable at the end of the experimental period in treatments with the bacterial-fungal ratio of 1:2. A remarkable decrease in surface tension from 72 mN/m to 36.51 mN/m was achieved in treatments with the bacterial-fungal ratio of 3:1. This resulted in a significant (P < 0.05) total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) removal rate of 89.4%, and the highest degradation of n-alkanes fractions (from 2129.01 mg/L to 118.53 mg/L), compared to the other treatments. Whereas PAHs removal was highest in treatments with the most fungal abundance (from 980.96 μg/L to 177.3 μg/L). Furthermore, enzymes analysis test revealed that catalase had the most effect on microbial degradation of the target substrate, while protease had no significant impact on the degradation process. High expression of almA and PAH-RHDa genes was achieved in the co-culture treatments, which correlated significantly (P < 0.05) with n-alkanes and PAHs removal, respectively. These results indicate that the application of immobilized bacterial and fungal cells in defined co-culture systems is an effective strategy for enhanced biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in aqueous systems.

Yin C, Yan H, Cao Y, Gao H. Enhanced bioremediation performance of diesel-contaminated soil by immobilized composite fungi on rice husk biochar. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 226:115663. [PMID: 36907343 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.115663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 02/26/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
In response to the low removal capacity and poor tolerance of fungi to diesel-contaminated soil, a novel immobilization system using biochar to enhance composite fungi was proposed. Rice husk biochar (RHB) and sodium alginate (SA) were used as immobilization matrices for composite fungi, and the adsorption system (CFI-RHB) and the encapsulation system (CFI-RHB/SA) were obtained. CFI-RHB/SA exhibited the highest diesel removal efficiency (64.10%) in high diesel-contaminated soil over a 60-day remediation period compared to the free composite fungi (42.70%) and CFI-RHB (49.13%). SEM demonstrated that the composite fungi were confirmed to be well attached to the matrix in both CFI-RHB and CFI-RHB/SA. FTIR analysis revealed the appearance of new vibration peaks in diesel-contaminated soil remediated by immobilized microorganisms, demonstrating changes in the molecular structure of diesel before and after degradation. Furthermore, CFI-RHB/SA maintains a stable removal efficiency (>60%) in higher concentrations of diesel-contaminated soil. High-throughput sequencing results indicated that Fusarium and Penicillium played a key role in the removal of diesel contaminants. Meanwhile, both dominant genera were negatively correlated with diesel concentration. The addition of exogenous fungi stimulated the enrichment of functional fungi. The insights gained from experiment and theory help to provide a new understanding of immobilization techniques of composite fungi and the evolution of fungal community structure.

Abstract
Probiotics and related preparations, including synbiotics and postbiotics, are living and non-living microbial-based multi-components, which are now among the most popular bioactive agents. Such interests mainly arise from the wide range and numerous beneficial effects of their use for various hosts. The current minireview article attempts to provide an overview and discuss in a holistic way the concepts, methodologies, action mechanisms, and applications of probiotic-based multi-components in human, animal, plant, soil, and environment health. Probiotic-based multi-component preparations refer to a mixture of bioactive agents, containing probiotics or postbiotics as main functional ingredients, and prebiotics, protectants, stabilizers, encapsulating agents, and other compounds as additional constituents. Analyzing, characterizing, and monitoring over time the traceability, performance, and stability of such multi-component ingredients require relevant and sensitive analytical tools and methodologies. Two innovative profiling and monitoring methods, the thermophysical fingerprinting thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry technique (TGA-DSC) of the whole multi-component powder preparations, and the Advanced Testing for Genetic Composition (ATGC) strain analysis up to the subspecies level, are presented, illustrated, and discussed in this review to respond to those requirements. Finally, the paper deals with some selected applications of probiotic-based multi-components to human, animal, plant, soil and environment health, while mentioning their possible action mechanisms.

Abstract
Enzymes are outstanding (bio)catalysts, not solely on account of their ability to increase reaction rates by up to several orders of magnitude but also for the high degree of substrate specificity, regiospecificity and stereospecificity. The use and development of enzymes as robust biocatalysts is one of the main challenges in biotechnology. However, despite the high specificities and turnover of enzymes, there are also drawbacks. At the industrial level, these drawbacks are typically overcome by resorting to immobilized enzymes to enhance stability. Immobilization of biocatalysts allows their reuse, increases stability, facilitates process control, eases product recovery, and enhances product yield and quality. This is especially important for expensive enzymes, for those obtained in low fermentation yield and with relatively low activity. This review provides an integrated perspective on (multi)enzyme immobilization that abridges a critical evaluation of immobilization methods and carriers, biocatalyst metrics, impact of key carrier features on biocatalyst performance, trends towards miniaturization and detailed illustrative examples that are representative of biocatalytic applications promoting sustainability.

Abstract
Bioremediation is commonly conducted by microbial consortia rather than individual species in natural environments. Biodegradation of dicarboximide fungicides in brunisolic soil were significantly enhanced by two bacterial cocultures of Providencia stuartii JD and Brevundimonas naejangsanensis J3. The cocultures degraded 98.42 %, 95.44 %, and 96.81 % of 50 mg/L dimethachlon, iprodione, and procymidone in liquid culture within 6 d respectively, whose efficiency was 1.23 and 1.26, 1.25 and 1.23, and 1.24 and 1.24 times of strains JD and J3, respectively. The cocultures could effectively degrade dimethachlon, iprodione and procymidone to simple products. Moreover, the cocultures immobilized in a charcoal-alginate-chitosan carrier obviously surpassed free cocultures in terms of degradability, stability and reusability. In the field brunisolic soils treated by immobilized cocultures, 96.74 % of 20.25 kg a.i./ha dimethachlon, 95.02 % of 7.50 kg a.i./ha iprodione and 96.27 % of 7.50 kg a.i./ha procymidone were degraded after 7 d, respectively. Moreover, the lower half-lifes (1.53, 1.59 and 1.57 d) by immobilized cocultures were observed, as compared to free cocultures (3.60, 4.03 and 3.92 d) and natural dissipation (21.33, 20.51 and 20.09 d). This study highlights that strains JD and J3 have significant synergetic degradation advantages in rapid bioremediation of dicarboximide fungicide contamination sites.

Physiological response of tomato plant to chitosan-immobilized aggregated Methylobacterium oryzae CBMB20 inoculation under salinity stress. 3 Biotech 2019; 9:397.

Abstract
The use of plant growth promoting bacteria as bioinoculant to alleviate salt stress is a sustainable and eco-friendly approach in agriculture. However, the maintenance of the bacterial population in the soil for longer period is a major concern. In the present study, chitosan-immobilized aggregated Methylobacterium oryzae CBMB20 was used as a bioinoculant to improve tomato plant (Solanum lycopersicum Mill.) growth under salt stress. The chitosan-immobilized aggregated M. oryzae CBMB20 was able to enhance plant dry weight, nutrient uptake (N, P, K and Mg2+), photosynthetic efficiency and decrease electrolyte leakage under salt stress conditions. The oxidative stress exerted by elevated levels of salt stress was also alleviated by the formulated bioinoculant, as it up-regulated the antioxidant enzyme activities and enhanced the accumulation of proline which acts as an osmolyte. The chitosan-immobilized aggregated M. oryzae CBMB20 was able to decrease the excess Na+ influx into the plant cells and subsequently decreasing the Na+/K+ ratio to improve tomato plant growth under salt stress conditions. Therefore, it is proposed that the chitosan-immobilized aggregated M. oryzae CBMB20 could be used as a bioinoculant to promote the plant growth under salt stress conditions.

Abstract
In this study, three sequencing batch reactors Ra, Rb, Rc with different inoculum sources (activated sludge; activated sludge plus detergent degrading consortium; detergent degrading consortium) were used to treat detergent wastewater [consisting of sodium dodecyl sulfate, polyoxyethylene lauryl ether and tetrasodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate (Na4EDTA)]. Fast start-up and highest performance in phase I and II (organic loading rate were 0.28, 0.39 kgCOD/kgMLSS/d, respectively) were observed in Rc. In contrast, Rb showed highest impact resistance to the increase of EDTA concentration in phase III. High-throughput sequencing analysis showed that inoculum sources led to significant differences on microbial community in phase I. However, regardless of the influent variation in phases II and III, the differences on microbial community among three SBRs were diminished along long-term operation. Pseudomonas, Sphingopyxis, Luteimonas, Pseudoxanthomonas and SM1A02 were found to be the core taxa, they might contribute to the excellent performance of detergent wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Pigmented bacteria cells, including aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic (AAP) bacteria, contribute significantly to secondary production and aquatic carbon cycling but their distribution in the deep sea is still not well understood, especially in the South China Sea. In this study, microscopic, flow cytometric, and molecular analyses were carried out to investigate the abundance and diversity of AAP bacteria at seven stations in the South China Sea. The results revealed the existence of bacteriochlorophyll-containing bacteria below 500 m from two of seven stations. Flow cytometric analysis detected red and infra-red fluorescence under blue (488 nm) light excitation from fluorescent cells. Blue light-excited red fluorescence of these cells from the 1000 m depth at station E403 were verified using epifluorescence microscopy. Based on fluorescence and side scatter features, fluorescent cells were sorted and subjected to molecular analysis. DNA was extracted from these sorted cells from both stations for PCR amplification using 16S rDNA primers. Sequencing of the PCR products showed that the sorted cells from the 1000 m depth at station E403 belonged to the genus Porphyrobacter. The cell population sorted from 500 m at station E703 contained Sphingomonas and a Methylobacterium-like taxon. All these three taxa belong to aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic alpha-proteobacteria. Using flow cytometric analysis, we found that the abundance of Porphyrobacter sp. at 1000 m was 2.71–2.95×104 cells mL-1 whereas cell counts of Sphingomonas sp. and Methylobacterium at 500 m were about 3.75–4.12×105 cells mL-1. These results indicate that albeit not ubiquitous in deep water, bacteriochlorophyll-containing bacteria can be abundant in the deep-sea aphotic zone.

Abstract
The emergence of the aluminium recycling industry has led to an increase in aluminium-containing wastewater discharge to the environment. Biological treatment of metal is one of the solutions that can be provided as green technology. Screening tests showed that Brochothrix thermosphacta and Vibrio alginolyticus have the potential to remove aluminium from wastewater. Brochothrix thermosphacta removed up to 49.60%, while Vibrio alginolyticus was capable of removing up to 59.72% of 100 mg/L aluminium in acidic conditions. The removal of aluminium by V. alginolyticus was well fitted with pseudo-first-order kinetics (k1 = 0.01796/min), while B. thermosphacta showed pseudo-second-order kinetics (k2 = 0.125612 mg substrate/g adsorbent. hr) in the process of aluminium removal. V. alginolyticus had a higher rate constant under acidic conditions, while B. thermosphacta had a higher rate constant under neutral pH conditions.

Abstract
Production water is the largest byproduct of the oil industry and must be treated before disposal, either by reinjection or shedding processes, with the purpose of eliminating emulsified crude oil and avoiding the operational and toxic problems associated with it. The objective of this work was to immobilize a hydrocarbon-degrading strain on activated carbons, to evaluate the biocomplex’s capacity for catalyzing hydrocarbons from Oil in Brine emulsions (O/W) simulating produced waters. Activated carbons were prepared and their chemical and porous properties were estimated by XPS, pHPZC and SEM, N2 adsorption, and mercury porosimetry. Biomaterials were synthesized and hydrocarbon removal tests were performed. The basic and neutral carbons immobilized Pseudomonas stutzeri by physisorption in the macroporous space and electrostatic interactions (108–109 UFC∙g−1), while acid materials inhibited bacterial growth. Removal of aromatic hydrocarbons was more efficient using materials (60%–93%) and biomaterials (16%–84%) than using free P. stutzeri (1%–47%), and the removal efficiencies of crude oil were 22%, 48% and 37% for P. stutzeri and two biomaterials, respectively. The presence of minor hydrocarbons only when P. stutzeri was present confirmed the biotransformation process.

Abstract
A new type of composite alginate membranes filled with chitosan (CS) and three different modified chitosan submicron particles, i.e. phosphorylated (CS-P), glycidol (CS-G) or glutaraldehyde (CS-GA) crosslinked ones, were prepared, and the pervaporation of water/ethanol mixture was investigated. The influence of various chitosan particles and their content on the transport properties of membranes was discussed. It was found that the addition of chitosan particles into the alginate matrix has a prominent effect on the ethanol/water separation efficiency. All tested membranes are characterized simultaneously by a high flux and selectivity, exhibiting advantageous properties, and outperforming numerous conventional materials. The best results were achieved for alginate membranes filled with phosphorylated chitosan particles at 10 wt%, for which separation factor, flux and PSI were equal to 136.2, 1.90 kg m-2 h-1 and 256.9 kg m-2 h-1, respectively.

Abstract
Anthropogenic activity, such as accidental oil spills, are typical sources of urban mangrove pollution that may affect mangrove bacterial communities as well as their mobile genetic elements. To evaluate remediation strategies, we followed over the time the effects of a petroleum hydrocarbon degrading consortium inoculated on mangrove tree Avicennia schaueriana against artificial petroleum contamination in a phytoremediation greenhouse experiment. Interestingly, despite plant protection due to the inoculation, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene fragments amplified from the total community DNA indicated that the different treatments did not significantly affect the bacterial community composition. However, while the bacterial community was rather stable, pronounced shifts were observed in the abundance of bacteria carrying plasmids. A PCR-Southern blot hybridization analysis indicated an increase in the abundance of IncP-9 catabolic plasmids. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of naphthalene dioxygenase (ndo) genes amplified from cDNA (RNA) indicated the dominance of a specific ndo gene in the inoculated petroleum amendment treatment. The petroleum hydrocarbon degrading consortium characterization indicated the prevalence of bacteria assigned to Pseudomonas spp., Comamonas spp. and Ochrobactrum spp. IncP-9 plasmids were detected for the first time in Comamonas sp. and Ochrobactrum spp., which is a novelty of this study.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization and population explosion has resulted in the generation and dumping of various contaminants into the environment. These harmful compounds deteriorate the human health as well as the surrounding environments. Current research aims to harness and enhance the natural ability of different microbes to metabolize these toxic compounds. Microbial-mediated bioremediation offers great potential to reinstate the contaminated environments in an ecologically acceptable approach. However, the lack of the knowledge regarding the factors controlling and regulating the growth, metabolism, and dynamics of diverse microbial communities in the contaminated environments often limits its execution. In recent years the importance of advanced tools such as genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and fluxomics has increased to design the strategies to treat these contaminants in ecofriendly manner. Previously researchers has largely focused on the environmental remediation using single omics-approach, however the present review specifically addresses the integrative role of the multi-omics approaches in microbial-mediated bioremediation. Additionally, we discussed how the multi-omics approaches help to comprehend and explore the structural and functional aspects of the microbial consortia in response to the different environmental pollutants and presented some success stories by using these approaches.

Diversity of culturable aerobic denitrifying bacteria in the sediment, water and biofilms in Liangshui River of Beijing, China. Sci Rep 2017; 7:10032. [PMID: 28855587 PMCID: PMC5577267 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-09556-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2017] [Accepted: 07/24/2017] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Aerobic denitrification is a process reducing the nitrate into gaseous nitrogen forms in the presence of oxygen gas, which makes the nitrification and denitrification performed simultaneously. However, little was known on the diversity of the culturable aerobic denitrifying bacteria in the surface water system. In this study, 116 strains of aerobic denitrifying bacteria were isolated from the sediment, water and biofilm samples in Liangshui River of Beijing. These bacteria were classified into 14 genera based on the 16 S rDNA, such as Pseudomonas, Rheinheimera, and Gemmobacter. The Pseudomonas sp., represented by the Pseudomonas stutzeri, Pseudomonas mendocina and Pseudomonas putida, composed the major culturable aerobic denitrifiers of the river, followed by Ochrobactrum sp. and Rheinheimera sp. The PCA plot showed the unclassified Pseudomonas sp. and Rheinheimera pacifica preferred to inhabit in biofilm phase while one unclassified Ochrobactrum sp. and Pseudomonas resinovorans had higher abundance in the sediment. In the overlying water, the Pseudomonas stutzeri and Ochrobactrum rhizosphaerae were found to have higher abundance, indicating these aerobic denitrifiers had different habitat-preferable characteristics among the 3 phases of river system. The findings may help select the niche to isolate the aerobic denitrifiers and facilitate the bioaugmentation-based purification of the nitrate polluted surface water.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped (1.4-3.6×0.4-0.6 µm) and motile marine bacterium, designated as MEBiC09124T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment of Suncheon Bay, South Korea. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain MEBiC09124T showed high similarity to Oleiagrimonas soli 3.5XT (96.7 %). Growth was observed at 18-38 °C (optimum 30 °C), at pH 4.0-8.5 (optimum pH 7.5) and with 0-6 % (w/v) (optimum 2.5 %) NaCl. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and summed feature 9 (comprising 10-methyl C16 : 0 and/or iso-C17 : 1ω9c). The DNA G+C content was 66.1 mol%. The major respiratory quinone was Q-8. Biochemical characteristics such as production of acetoin and enzyme activities of trypsin, α-chymotrypsin and N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase differentiated strain MEBiC09124T from O. soli 3.5XT. On the basis of data from this polyphasic taxonomic study, strain MEBiC09124T (=KCCM 43131T=JCM 30904T) is classified as the type strain of a novel species in the genus Oleiagrimonas, for which the name Oleiagrimonas citrea sp. nov. is proposed. Emended descriptions of the genus Oleiagrimonas and Oleiagrimonas soli are also given.

Abstract
The present work aimed to develop a novel strategy to bioremediate the petroleum hydrocarbon contaminants in the environment. Salt tolerant bacterium was isolated from Dagang oilfield, China and identified as Corynebacterium variabile HRJ4 based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The bacterium had a high salt tolerant capability and biochar was developed as carrier for the bacterium. The bacteria with biochar were most effective in degradation of n-alkanes (C16, C18, C19, C26, C28) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (NAP, PYR) mixture. The result demonstrated that immobilization of C. variabile HRJ4 with biochar showed higher degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (THPs) up to 78.9% after 7-day of incubation as compared to the free leaving bacteria. The approach of this study will be helpful in clean-up of petroleum-contamination in the environments through bioremediation process using eco-friendly and cost effective materials like biochar.

Abstract
A bacterial consortium composed by four metagenomic clones and Bacillus subtilis strain CBMAI 707, all derived from petroleum reservoirs, was entrapped in chitosan beads and evaluated regarding hydrocarbon degradation capability. Experiments were carried out in mesocosm scale (3000L) with seawater artificially polluted with crude oil. At different time intervals, mesocosms were sampled and subjected to GC-FID and microbiological analyses, as total and heterotrophic culturable bacterial abundance (DAPI and CFU count), biological oxygen demand (BOD) and taxonomic diversity (massive sequencing of 16S rRNA genes). The results obtained showed that degradation of n-alkane hydrocarbons was similar between both treatments. However, aromatic compound degradation was more efficient in bioaugmentation treatment, with biodegradation percentages reaching up to 99% in 30days. Community dynamics was different between treatments and the consortium used in the bioaugmentation treatment contributed to a significant increase in aromatic hydrocarbon degradation.

Abstract
A yellow-pigmented strain, designated strain 3.5XT, was isolated from oil-contaminated saline soil in Gudao, Shandong Province, China, and was characterized taxonomically. The results showed that the isolate was a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped cell with a polar flagellum. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed the strain belonged to the family
Xanthomonadaceae
in the class
Gammaproteobacteria
and represented an independent taxon separated from other genera. The closest relative of strain 3.5XT was
Fulvimonas soli
DSM 14263T (94 % similarity). The genomic DNA G+C content was 67 mol% by thermal denaturation and 66.3 mol% from genome sequences. The cells mainly consisted of branched fatty acids, with iso-C17 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, iso-C17 : 1ω9c and/or C16 : 010-methyl and iso-C11 : 0 as the major fatty acids. The main polar lipids were phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. In addition, ubiquinone Q-8 was the major component of the quinone system and the polyamine pattern contained the major compound spermidine plus minor amounts of putrescine and spermine. On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic distinctiveness, it is proposed that the isolate represents a novel species in a novel genus, namely Oleiagrimonas soli gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain is 3.5XT ( = NBRC 110685T = KCTC 42351T = CPCC 100614T).
