Project description:In the present study, we evaluated a bacterium that was isolated from waste water for its ability to take up cadmium and manganese. The strain, identified both biochemically and by its 16S rRNA gene sequence as Klebsiella, was named Yangling I2 and was found to be highly resistant to heavy metals. Surface characterization of the bacterium via SEM revealed gross morphological changes, with cells appearing as biconcave discs after metal exposure rather than their typical rod shape. The effects of pH, temperature, heavy metal concentration, agitation and biomass concentration on the uptake of Cd(II) and Mn(II) was measured using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The results showed that the biosorption was most affected by pH and incubation temperature, being maximized at pH 5.0 and 30°C, with absorption capacities of 170.4 and 114.1 mg/g for Cd(II) and Mn(II), respectively. Two models were investigated to compare the cells' capacity for the biosorption of Cd and Mn, and the Langmuir model based on fuzzy linear regression was found to be close to the observed absorption curves and yield binding constants of 0.98 and 0.86 for Cd and Mn, respectively. This strain of Klebsiella has approximately ten times the absorption capacity reported for other strains and is promising for the removal of heavy metals from waste water.

Project description:Manganese is a contaminant in the wastewaters produced by Brazilian mining operations, and the removal of the metal is notoriously difficult because of the high stability of the Mn(II) ion in aqueous solutions. To explore a biological approach for removing excessive amounts of aqueous Mn(II), we investigated the potential of Mn(II) oxidation by both consortium and bacterial isolates from a Brazilian manganese mine. A bacterial consortium was able to remove 99.7% of the Mn(II). A phylogenetic analysis of isolates demonstrated that the predominant microorganisms were members of Stenotrophomonas, Bacillus, and Lysinibacillus genera. Mn(II) removal rates between 58.5% and 70.9% were observed for Bacillus sp. and Stenotrophomonas sp. while the Lysinibacillus isolate 13P removes 82.7%. The catalytic oxidation of Mn(II) mediated by multicopper oxidase was not properly detected; however, in all of the experiments, a significant increase in the pH of the culture medium was detected. No aggregates inside the cells grown for a week were found by electronic microscopy. Nevertheless, an energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy of the isolates revealed the presence of manganese in Stenotrophomonas sp. and Lysinibacillus sp. grown in K medium. These results suggest that members of Stenotrophomonas and Lysinibacillus genera were able to remove Mn(II) by a nonenzymatic pathway.

Project description:Lead biosorption by Klebsiella sp. 3S1 isolated from a wastewater treatment plant was investigated through a Rotatable Central Composite Experimental Design. The optimisation study indicated the following optimal values of operating variables: 0.4?g/L of biosorbent dosage, pH 5, and 34°C. According to the results of the kinetic studies, the biosorption process can be described by a two-step process, one rapid, almost instantaneous, and one slower, both contributing significantly to the overall biosorption; the model that best fits the experimental results was pseudo-second order. The equilibrium studies showed a maximum lead uptake value of 140.19?mg/g according to the Langmuir model. The mechanism study revealed that lead ions were bioaccumulated into the cytoplasm and adsorbed on the cell surface. The bacterium??Klebsiella sp. 3S1 has a good potential in the bioremoval of lead in an inexpensive and effective process.

Project description:Heavy metals are considered as dangerous pollutants even in relatively low concentrations. Biosorption is an ecofriendly technology that uses microbial biomasses for adsorbing heavy metals from wastewater on their surfaces based on physicochemical pathways. Ten agricultural wastewater samples were collected from different sites in Sohag Governorate, Egypt. One hundred and nineteen zinc and cadmium-resistant bacterial isolates were recovered from the water samples. Interestingly, the isolate R1 was selected as the most resistant to Zn2+ and Cd2+. This isolate was morphologically and biochemically characterized and identified by sequencing of 16S rRNA gene as Priestia megaterium, and then deposited in the GenBank database under the accession number PRJNA526404. Studying the effects of pH and contact time on the biosorption process revealed that the maximum biosorption was achieved within 50 min at pH 7 and 8 for Zn2+ and Cd2+, respectively, by the living and lyophelized biomass of Priestia megaterium PRJNA526404. The preliminary characterization of the main chemical groups present on the cell wall, which are responsible for heavy metal biosorption, was performed by Infrared analysis (IR). Kinetics studies revealed that data were fitted towards the models hypothesized by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations. The maximum capacity values (qmax) for biosorption of zinc and cadmium reached by using living and lyophelized biomass were 196.08; 227.27 and 178.57; 212.777 mg/g, respectively, and it was indicated that lyophilization improved efficiency of the biomass to heavy metals compared to living cells. The results indicated that Priestia megaterium PRJNA526404 had good application prospect in cadmium and zinc water remediation.

Project description:Extracellular Polysaccharides (EPS) from both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a great deal of research interest as they protect the producer from different stresses including antibiotics, ionic stress, desiccation and assist in bio-film formation, pathogenesis, adhesion, etc. In this study haloalkaliphilic Bacillus sp., known to cope with osmophilic stress, was selected and screened for EPS production. The EPS were isolated, partially purified and chemical characteristics were documented using liquid FT-IR followed by assessment of heavy metal biosorption (lead, copper and cadmium) using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). The EPS extracted from three isolates B. licheniformis NSPA5, B. cereus NSPA8 and B. subtilis NSPA13 showed maximum biosorption of Lead followed by Copper and Cadmium. Of the tested isolates, the EPS from isolate B. cereus NSPA8 showed maximum (90 %) biosorption of the lead.

Project description:Our current knowledge on bacterial cadmium (Cd) resistance is mainly based on the functional exploration of specific Cd-resistance genes. In this study, we carried out a genomic study on Cd resistance of a newly isolated Cellulomonas strain with a MIC of 5 mM Cd. Full genome of the strain, with a genome size of 4.47 M bp and GC-content of 75.35%, was obtained through high-quality sequencing. Genome-wide annotations identified 54 heavy metal-related genes. Four potential Cd-resistance genes, namely zntAY8, copAY8, HMTY8, and czcDY8, were subjected to functional exploration. Quantitative PCR determination of in vivo expression showed that zntAY8, copAY8, and HMTY8 were strongly Cd-inducible. Expression of the three inducible genes against time and Cd concentrations were further quantified. It is found that zntAY8 responded more strongly to higher Cd concentrations, while expression of copAY8 and HMTY8 increased over time at lower Cd concentrations. Heterologous expression of the four genes in Cd-sensitive Escherichia coli led to different impacts on hosts' Cd sorption, with an 87% reduction by zntAY8 and a 3.7-fold increase by HMTY8. In conclusion, a Cd-resistant Cellulomonas sp. strain was isolated, whose genome harbors a diverse panel of metal-resistance genes. Cd resistance in the strain is not controlled by a dedicated gene alone, but by several gene systems collectively whose roles are probably time- and dose-dependent. The plasmid-free, high-GC strain Y8 may provide a platform for exploring heavy metal genomics of the Cellulomonas genus.

Project description:This study focused on the use of Indian almond leaf biomass, a local plant widely found in Thailand, on removal of dicloxacillin from pharmaceutical waste water by biosorption. The biosorption characteristics of dicloxacillin were investigated in terms of equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamics. Optimum biosorption conditions were determined from pH, initial dicloxacillin concentration, biomass dosage, contact time, and temperature. The maximum adsorption capacity was 86.93 % (pH 6.0, 0.1?g/L biomass, dicloxacillin concentration 20?mg/L, contact time 24?h, temperature 283.15?K). The thermodynamic parameters (298.15?K), free energy change, enthalpy change and entropy change were -3475.79?J/mol, -25.36?kJ/mol, and -73.40?J/mol/K, respectively. The best interpretation for the experimental data was given by the Langmuir isotherm with correlation coefficient of 0.965. The results were found to tie in well with pseudo-second-order kinetics. Considering the cost-effectiveness, Indian almond leaf biomass is considered to be suitable to remove dicloxacillin from pharmaceutical waste water.

Project description:A Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-spore-forming, aerobic, yellow-pigmented bacterium was isolated from chicken feather waste collected from an abattoir in Bloemfontein, South Africa. A polyphasic taxonomy study was used to describe and name the bacterial isolate, strain 1_F178T. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and sequence comparison data indicated that strain 1_F178T was a member of the genus Chryseobacterium and was closely related to Chryseobacterium jejuense (99.1%) and Chryseobacterium nakagawai (98.7%). Overall genome similarity metrics (average nucleotide identity, digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average amino acid identity) revealed greatest similarity to the C. jejuense and C. nakagawai type strains but were below the threshold for species delineation. Genome sequencing revealed a genome size of 6.18 Mbp and a G+C content of 35.6 mol%. The major respiratory quinone and most abundant polar lipid of strain 1_F178T were menaquinone-6 and phosphatidylethanolamine, respectively. Strain 1_F178T had a typical fatty acid composition for Chryseobacterium species. On the basis of physiological, genotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, strain 1_F178T constitutes a novel species of Chryseobacterium, for which the name Chryseobacterium pennae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 1_F178T (=LMG 30779T=KCTC 62759T).

Project description:A novel Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, halophilic bacterium designated strain M10.9XT was isolated from the inner sediment of an aluminium can collected from the Mediterranean Sea (València, Spain). Cells of strain M10.9XT were rod-shaped and occasionally formed aggregates. The strain was oxidase-negative and catalase-positive, and showed a slightly psychrophilic, neutrophilic and slightly halophilic metabolism. The phylogenetic analyses revealed that strain M10.9XT was closely related to Sagittula stellata E-37T and Sagittula marina F028-2T. The genomic G+C content of strain M10.9XT was 65.2 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values were 76.6 and 20.9 %, respectively, confirming its adscription to a new species within the genus Sagittula. The major cellular fatty acids were C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c and C16 : 0. The polar lipids consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified glycolipid, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified lipid. According to the resuts of a polyphasic study, strain M10.9XT represents a novel species of the genus Sagittula for which the name Sagittula salina sp. nov. (type strain M10.9XT=DSM 112301T=CECT 30307T) is proposed.

Project description:Microorganisms play a significant part in detoxifying and immobilizing excessive metals. The present research isolated a strain (HM7) with high Mn(II) tolerance from Mn(II)-contaminated soil samples. The 16S rDNA sequence analysis showed that HM7 had a 99% similarity to Bacillus thuringiensis, which can survive under a high concentration 4,000 mg/L of Mn(II), and the highest removal rate was up to 95.04% at the concentration of 400 mg/L. The highest Mn(II) removal rate was detected at the contact time 72 h, temperature 30 °C, and pH 5.0, while the differences in strain growth and Mn(II) removal rate among different inoculation doses were insignificant. Scanning electron microscopy indicated B. thuringiensis HM7 cells appeared irregular and cracked under Mn(II) stress. Fourier transform infrared exhibited that functional groups like carboxyl, hydroxyl, amino, sulfhydryl groups, and amide bands might take part in the complexation of Mn(II). In addition, HM7 suggested the ability of indoleacetic acid production, siderophore production, and P' solubilization potential. Therefore, HM7 might have a potential to promote metal absorption by changing the form of heavy metals, and the experiments supported the application of B. thuringiensis HM7 as a biological adsorbent in Mn(II) contaminated environment remediation.
