Bioremediation of Phenanthrene, Chrysene, and Benzo[a]pyrene by Fungi Screened from Nature
Laccase of Polyporus sp. S133 was able to oxidize most of the 3 different rings amount polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) tested. Phenanthrene was removed by 89% followed by chrysene and benzo[a]pyrene which were oxidized by 66 and 55%, respectively. Addition of 1hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT) to the reaction mixture increased oxidation of PAHs, especially phenanthrene was almost completely re...
متن کاملBiodegradation of ochratoxin A by fungi isolated from grapes.
Ochratoxin A is a mycotoxin present in several food products for which levels should be reduced. Chemical, physical, and biological methods have been proposed for the detoxification of mycotoxins, biological methods being the more promising ones. In this report, filamentous fungi isolated from Portuguese grapes were assessed for ochratoxin A degradation capabilities. It was observed that 51 of ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of polyester polyurethane by endophytic fungi.
Bioremediation is an important approach to waste reduction that relies on biological processes to break down a variety of pollutants. This is made possible by the vast metabolic diversity of the microbial world. To explore this diversity for the breakdown of plastic, we screened several dozen endophytic fungi for their ability to degrade the synthetic polymer polyester polyurethane (PUR). Sever...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Effluents from Dairy Plant by Bacterial Isolates
Micro flora of the effluents from a dairy factory in Tehran(Pegah Dairy Processing Plant) were isolated and screened for their ability to reduce the organic matter content and COD of the effluents. 10 bacteria were selected due to reduction in COD content from the 4th to 6th day of incubation at 30 °C and pH =11. Highest COD reduction were obtained by two isolates, BP3...
متن کاملBiodegradation of new series of aliphatic copolyesters by fungi
Biodegradable aliphatic random copolyesters poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene adipate), PBSA and poly(butylene succinate-co-butylene azelate), PBSAz were synthesized from 1,4 butane diol, succinic acid and adipic acid/azelaic acid through direct melt polycondensation with Titanium Tetra isopropoxide (TTiPO) as a catalyst. These polyesters were characterized by Viscosity measurements, 1H NMR s...
