Abstract:
Aquatic environment influences the quantity and quality of aquatic livings directly. In China, aquatic environment has been contaminated seriously as the rapid development of aquaculture industry. Bioremediation, mainly including efficient microbial agent method, immobilized microbe method, aquatic plant method, aquatic animal method and constructed wetlands method, can absorb and assimilate the organic and inorganic pollutants even toxic heavy metals in effluent, degrade them to innocuous substances through metabolism of microorganisms, aquatic plants or aquatic animals. Researches and demonstration showed that bioremediation could effectively decrease NH+4-N, NO−X-N, COD, SS generated by excess bait, fish manure, biological excrements and sediments, increase aquatic transparency, DO and stable pH value in aquaculture water. In future, theoretical researches should be enhanced on improvements of individual as well as integrated bioremediations which will contribute to sustainable development of aquaculture.

Abstract:
Anaerobic sludge were cultured and acclimated by adding different co-metabolism substrates under six operating conditions, using chloroform as model contaminant in an anaerobic environment. The microorganisms obtained with chloroform biodegradability were concentrated and cultured before adding into the simulated decontaminating apparatus. The results showed that the chloroform could be degraded by the microorganisms under the anaerobic condition, and the addition of co-metabolism substrates could improve the biodegradation efficiency. Moreover, the biodegradation efficiency varied with different co-metabolism matrix. The removal efficiency of pollutants could reach 75% using the microorganisms acclimated with glucose and methanol as co-metabolism substrates.

Abstract:
Monoaromatic pollutants such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and mixture of xylenes are now considered as widespread contaminants of groundwater. In situ bioremediation under natural attenuation or enhanced remediation has been successfully used for removal of organic pollutants, including monoaromatic compounds, from groundwater. Results published indicate that in some sites, intrinsic bioremediation can reduce the monoaromatic compounds content of contaminated water to reach standard levels of potable water. However, engineering bioremediation is faster and more efficient. Also, studies have shown that enhanced anaerobic bioremediation can be applied for many BTEX contaminated groundwaters, as it is simple, applicable and economical. This paper reviews microbiology and metabolism of monoaromatic biodegradation and in situ bioremediation for BTEX removal from groundwater under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. It also discusses the factors affecting and limiting bioremediation processes and interactions between monoaromatic pollutants and other compounds during the remediation processes.

Abstract:
In this review, the effect of pharmaceuticals (PHRs) and personal care products (PCPs) on microalgal growth and metabolism is reported. Concentrations of various PHRs and PCPs that cause inhibition and toxicity to growths of different microalgal strains are summarized and compared. The effect of PHRs and PCPs on microalgal metabolism (oxidative stress, enzyme activity, pigments, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, toxins), as well as on the cellular morphology, is discussed. Literature data concerning the removal of PHRs and PCPs from wastewaters by living microalgal cultures, with the emphasis on microalgal growth, are gathered and discussed. The potential of simultaneously bioremediating PHRs/PCPs-containing wastewaters and cultivating microalgae for biomass production in a single process is considered. In the light of reviewed data, the feasibility of post-bioremediation microalgal biomass is discussed in terms of its contamination, biosafety and further usage for production of value-added biomolecules (pigments, lipids, proteins) and biomass as a whole.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTSimple and inexpensive methods for assessing the metabolic status and bioremediation activities of subsurface microorganisms are required before bioremediation practitioners will adopt molecular diagnosis of the bioremediation community as a routine practice for guiding the development of bioremediation strategies. Quantifying gene transcripts can diagnose important aspects of microbial physiology during bioremediation but is technically challenging and does not account for the impact of translational modifications on protein abundance. An alternative strategy is to directly quantify the abundance of key proteins that might be diagnostic of physiological state. To evaluate this strategy, an antibody-based quantification approach was developed to investigate subsurfaceGeobactercommunities. The abundance of citrate synthase corresponded with rates of metabolism ofGeobacter bemidjiensisin chemostat cultures. Duringin situbioremediation of uranium-contaminated groundwater the quantity ofGeobactercitrate synthase increased with the addition of acetate to the groundwater and decreased when acetate amendments stopped. The abundance of the nitrogen-fixation protein, NifD, increased as ammonium became less available in the groundwater and then declined when ammonium concentrations increased. In a petroleum-contaminated aquifer, the abundance of BamB, an enzyme subunit involved in the anaerobic degradation of mono-aromatic compounds byGeobacterspecies, increased in zones in whichGeobacterwere expected to play an important role in aromatic hydrocarbon degradation. These results suggest that antibody-based detection of key metabolic proteins, which should be readily adaptable to standardized kits, may be a feasible method for diagnosing the metabolic state of microbial communities responsible for bioremediation, aiding in the rational design of bioremediation strategies.

Full text
Abstract:
The enzymatic reduction of a high-valence form of metals to a low-valence reduced form has been proposed as a strategy to treat water contaminated with a range of metals and radionuclides. Metal reduction by sulphate reducing bacteria (SRB) is carried out either chemically (involving reduction by hydrogen sulphide) or enzymatically (involving redox enzymes such as the hydrogenases). While reduction of metal ions by hydrogen sulphide is well known, the enzymatic mechanism for metal reduction is poorly understood. The aims of this study were to investigate the role of SRB in facilitating platinum removal, and to investigate the role of a hydrogenase in platinum reduction in vitro. In order to avoid precipitation of platinum as platinum sulphide, a resting (non-growing) mixed SRB culture was used. The maximum initial concentration of platinum (IV), which SRB can effectively remove from solution was shown to be 50 mg.l⁻¹. Electron donor studies showed high platinum (IV) uptake in the presence of hydrogen, suggesting that platinum (IV) uptake from solution by SRB requires careful optimization with respect to the correct electron donor. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis indicated that platinum was being precipitated in the periplasm, a major area of hydrogenase activity in SRB. Purification of the hydrogenase by ammonium sulphate precipitation (65%), Toyopearl-Super Q 650S ion exchange and Sephacry 1 S-100 size exclusion chromatography revealed that the hydrogenase was monomeric with a molecular weight of 58 KDa, when analyzed by 12% SDS-PAGE. The purified hydrogenase showed optimal temperature and pH at 35°C and 7.5 respectively, and a poor thermal stability. In vitro investigation of platinum reduction by purified hydrogenase from mixed SRB culture showed that hydrogenase reduces platinum only in the presence of hydrogen. Major platinum (IV) reduction was observed when hydrogenase was incubated with cytochrome C₃ (physiological electron carrier in vivo) under hydrogen. The same observations were also noted with industrial effluent. Collectively these findings suggest that in vitro platinum reduction is mediated by hydrogenase with a concerted action of cytochrome C₃ required to shuttle the electron from hydrogenase.

Industrial exploitation of petroleum as well as the use of its derivatives has been growing due to its importance for society. Petroleum is a complex mixture of several organic compounds, mainly hydrocarbons compounds. The occurrence of contamination of the environment with these components is worrisome because in addition to its difficult degradation, oil requires many stages of processing, from its extraction, transportation, refining to the storage of the derivatives, dramatically increasing its exposure to the environment. An alternative to hydrocarbons degradation is the use of bacteria, by process called biodegradation, that depends ecosystem conditions and the local environment. Thus, bioremediation is a treatment process that uses microorganisms that degrade and transform existing organic pollutants in less complex and generally more easily degradable compounds, which can even reach mineralization. In this study we used the Acinetobacter junii SB132 bacterium previously isolated from aquatic macrophytes of Rio Negro near the city of Manaus (AM). Its hydrocarbon degradation capacity was tested in presence of diesel oil as the only carbon and energy source. In this work, the results obtained by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) showed that the alkanes of the diesel oil were degraded on average 58% by A. junii SB132 at 30 °C after 4 days of culture. The individual alkanes of diesel oil were degraded between 60 % -87 %. Proteomic study revealed proteins and metabolic pathway of A. junii SB132 involved in the degradation of hydrocarbons, specially alkanes. This study suggests that this degrading bacterial lineage of hydrocarbons has a great potential for bioremediation of the environment contaminated by diesel.
Atualmente, a exploração industrial do petróleo bem como o uso de seus derivados vem crescendo cada vez mais devido à sua importância econômica para a sociedade. O petróleo é uma mistura complexa de vários compostos orgânicos, constituído principalmente por hidrocarbonetos. A ocorrência de contaminação do meio ambiente com estes compostos é agravada, pois, além da sua difícil degradação, o petróleo requer muitas etapas de processamento, desde a sua extração, transporte, refino até a armazenagem dos derivados, aumentando drasticamente a sua exposição ao meio ambiente. Uma alternativa para a degradação de hidrocarbonetos é o uso de bactérias e tal processo, nomeado biodegradação, depende das condições do ecossistema e do meio ambiente local. Com isso, a biorremediação é um processo de tratamento que utiliza microrganismos que degradam e transformam compostos orgânicos poluentes existentes nos ambientes contaminados em compostos menos complexos e geralmente mais facilmente degradáveis, podendo chegar até a sua mineralização. Neste estudo foi utilizada a bactéria Acinetobacter junii SB132 previamente isolada a partir de macrófitas aquáticas do Rio Negro nas proximidades da cidade de Manaus (AM). Sua capacidade de degradação de hidrocarbonetos foi avaliada fornecendo óleo diesel como única fonte de carbono. Os resultados obtidos pela técnica de cromatografia gasosa acoplada à espectrometria de Massas (GC-MS) mostraram que os alcanos do óleo diesel foram degradados em média 58 % por A. junii SB132 após 4 dias de cultivo em meio mínimo a 30 °C. Os alcanos individuais de óleo diesel foram degradados entre 60% -87%. A partir de proteínas extraídas dessa linhagem também foram feitas análises por ESI-MS que identificaram proteínas e rotas metabólicas envolvidas na degradação de hidrocarbonetos como a via de degradação, especialmente de alcanos. Esse estudo sugere que essa linhagem bacteriana possui um grande potencial para biorremediação de ambiente contaminado por diesel.

Abstract:
Studies are presented investigating the metabolism of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) by Clostridium acetobutylicum. When incubated with a batch culture of acetogenic Clostridium acetobutylicum, TNT was reduced through 4-hydroxylamino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (and to a lesser extent 2-hydroxylamino-4,6-dinitrotoluene) to 2,4-dihydroxylamino-6-nitrotoluene. The intermediate 2,4-dihydroxylamino-6-nitrotoluene then underwent a microbially catalyzed Bamberger rearrangement to form 4-amino-6-hydroxylamino-4-methyl-2-nitrophenol. When incubated with TNT-contaminated soil, C. acetobutylicum was able to transform TNT to 2,4-dihydroxylamino-6-nitrotoluene and beyond. Additionally, aerobic soil bacteria indigenous to TNT contaminated soil were able to mineralize a fraction (approximately 9% to 10%) of the products created by the reduction of TNT by C. acetobutylicum.

Due to incomplete anaerobic biodegradation of PCE, dichloroethylene (DCE) accumulates in saturated groundwater aquifers. A column study was conducted to simulate the degradation of DCE through aerobic co-metabolism using methane as the primary substrate. In addition, a comparison of the DCE degradation efficiency and the microorganism community structure with previous research was conducted. Results of the biostimulation study showed that PCE could be readily degraded in the anaerobic environment after 60 days of column operating, leading to increase in the by-product – DCE formation. DCE could not be effectively degraded in the subsequent aerobic column, with a removal efficiency of 65%. However, when the system was operated at aerobic co-metabolism process, the degradation of DCE improved to 100%. The by-product of DCE – vinyl chloride (VC), could also be degraded simultaneously. Batch experiments showed that various methods of methane addition affects the degradation rate of DCE due to the rate of oxygen consumption. With the addition of hydrogen peroxide, the removal rate of DCE increased significantly with the excess consumption of oxygen and methane by aerobic microorganisms. Also, the kinetics of DCE degradation follows a first-order reaction rate.

Abstract:
Sulfate- and Fe(III)-reducing, and methanogenic prokaryotes (SRP, FRP, MGP) are key players in metabolic pathways involved in anaerobic biodegradation processes. Understanding the metabolic activity of these microbes in environments can enhance microbe-mediated processes such as oil spill bioremediation and methane biogas production. In this study, anaerobic microbial activities in Deepwater Horizon oil spill-impacted salt marsh sediments, and in methanogenic coal bed production water enrichment cultures amended with trace elements (TE), were elucidated by employing an approach combining methods in molecular biology and geochemistry. In situ metabolic activity of SRP, FRP and MGP were monitored seasonally and metabolically-active communities were identified in oil-impacted sediments using quantitative real time Reverse Transcription -PCR and clone library analysis of key functional genes: Dissimilatory (bi)sulfite reductase (dsrAB), Geobactereceae-specific citrate synthase (gltA), methyl coenzyme M reductase (mcrA), and benzyl succinate synthase (bssA). In situ application of montmorillonite clay was assessed for its potential at accelerating PHC degradation by stimulating microbial activities. Levels of dsrA, gltA and bssA transcripts suggested that PHC-oxidizing SRP are more active in summer while FRP are more active in winter, indicating their activities linked to the seasonal changes of redox potential and vegetation. BssA gene expression peaked in winter, and was highest at more highly oil-impacted sites. Expression of all genes was higher in clay-amended sites. bssA transcript level and Fe(II) production were highest in clay-amended microcosm. Total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) levels were lower in oil and clay-amended microcosm incubation than one with oil only amendment, suggesting enhanced TPH degradation by clay amendment. Pyrosequencing analysis 16S rRNA gene in clay-amended microcosms demonstrated the highest percentage abundance of groups closely related to known anaerobic aromatic degraders. Levels of mcrA transcripts correlated with methane production rates in TE-amended coal bed production water enrichments. The findings of the present study clearly support the advantage of gene expression analyses for estimating microbial activity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first in situ study which employs key functional gene markers as molecular proxies for metabolic activity and diversity assessments in anaerobic oil-contaminated salt marsh sediment and also elucidates clay-enhanced in situ TPH degradation.
