Identification of ester metabolites from petroleum hydrocarbon biodegradation in groundwater using GC×GC-TOFMS.
In an effort to understand the nature and toxicity of petroleum hydrocarbon degradation metabolites, 2-dimensional gas chromatography linked to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer (GC×GC-TOFMS) was used to conduct nontargeted analysis of the extracts of 61 groundwater samples collected from 10 fuel release sites. An unexpected result was the tentative identification of 197 unique esters. Althoug...
متن کاملToxicity of polar metabolites associated with petroleum hydrocarbon biodegradation in groundwater.
The recent study by O’Reilly et al. [1] describing the identification of 197 esters likely related to the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in 61 groundwater samples from 10 fuel release sites in California lacks evidence that these compounds have a “low toxicological profile,” which is the argument used by the authors to promote the routine use of silica gel cleanup. The detection ofmor...
متن کاملMicrobial Hydrocarbon Degradation: Efforts to Understand Biodegradation in Petroleum Reservoirs
The understanding of the phylogenetic diversity, metabolic capabilities, ecological roles, and community dynamics taking place in oil reservoir microbial communities is far from complete. The interest in studying microbial diversity and metabolism in petroleum reservoirs lies mainly but not only on providing a better comprehension of biodegradation of crude oils, since it represents a worldwide...
متن کاملIdentification of some fungal species involved in biodegradation of petroleum pollutants in Northwest of Iran
Black yeast fungi play critical role in degradation of petroleum polluted soils. Little attention has been paid to the biodiversity of black yeast fungi in Iran. In this paper, diversity of black yeast fungi was studied in petroleum polluted soils in Tabriz and Urmia regions. Soil samples were collected from petroleum polluted areas in vicinity of oil storage tanks in Tabriz and Urmia cities (E...
متن کاملCHARACTERIZATION OF METAGENOMIC SEQUENCES FROM A BRAZILIAN PETROLEUM RESERVOIR WITH POTENTIAL FOR HYDROCARBON BIODEGRADATION Author(s)
Alkanes are the major components of crude oil and the most abundant and available carbon and energy sources in reservoirs. Microorganisms are common inhabitants of these environments and may have effective biodegrading strategies, based on specialized enzyme systems and metabolic pathways, as a form to access hydrocarbons as carbon and energy sources. However, the current knowledge of the micro...
