Vinyl chloride biodegradation by methane-oxidizing bacteria and ethene-oxidizing bacteria in the presence of methane and ethene
Lee, Meng-Chen. "Vinyl chloride biodegradation by methane-oxidizing bacteria and ethene-oxidizing bacteria in the presence of methane and ethene. ii ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To be able to conclude this part of my journey in reflection and with gratitude is truly a blessing. Foremost, I extend a sincere thank you to my advisor, Tim Mattes, for the wonderful opportunity he gave me and the faith he has...
متن کاملEffect of nitrogen source on growth and trichloroethylene degradation by methane-oxidizing bacteria.
The effect of nitrogen source on methane-oxidizing bacteria with respect to cellular growth and trichloroethylene (TCE) degradation ability were examined. One mixed chemostat culture and two pure type II methane-oxidizing strains, Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b and strain CAC-2, which was isolated from the chemostat culture, were used in this study. All cultures were able to grow with each of ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) by methanotrophic community.
Laboratory incubation experiments were carried out to assess the potential of methanotrophic culture for degrading TCE. Measurements of the growth rate and TCE degradation showed that the methanotrophs not only grew in presence of TCE but also degraded TCE. The rate of TCE degradation was found to be 0.19 ppm h(-1). The reverse transcriptase-PCR test was conducted to quantify expression of pmoA...
متن کاملBiodegradation of endosulfan by a soil bacterium.
A bacterium capable of metabolizing endosulfan (6,7,8,9,10,10-hexachloro-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano-2,4,3-benzodioxathiepine3-oxide) was isolated from cotton-growing soil and effectively shown to degrade endosulfan into endosulfan sulfate. The bacterium degraded 50% of the compound within 3 days of incubation. Endosulfan sulfate was the only terminal product and no other metabolites we...
متن کاملCharacterization of a methane-utilizing bacterium from a bacterial consortium that rapidly degrades trichloroethylene and chloroform.
A mixed culture of bacteria grown in a bioreactor with methane as a carbon and energy source rapidly oxidized trichloroethylene and chloroform. The most abundant organism was a crescent-shaped bacterium that bound the fluorescent oligonucleotide signature probes that specifically hybridize to serine pathway methylotrophs. The 5S rRNA from this bacterium was found to be 93.5% homologous to the M...
