Carbon and hydrogen stable isotope fractionation during aerobic bacterial degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons.
نویسندگان
چکیده
13C/(12)C and D/H stable isotope fractionation during aerobic degradation was determined for Pseudomonas putida strain mt-2, Pseudomonas putida strain F1, Ralstonia pickettii strain PKO1, and Pseudomonas putida strain NCIB 9816 grown with toluene, xylenes, and naphthalene. Different types of initial reactions used by the respective bacterial strains could be linked with certain extents of stable isotope fractionation during substrate degradation.

Variation in stable carbon isotope fractionation during aerobic degradation of phenol and benzoate by contaminant degrading bacteria
Variation in the natural abundance stable carbon isotope composition of respired CO2 and biomass has been measured for two types of aerobic bacteria found in contaminated land sites. Pseudomonas putida strain NCIMB 10015 was cultured on phenol and benzoate and Rhodococcus sp. I1 was cultured on phenol. Results indicate that aerobic isotope fractionations of diering magnitudes occur during aero...
متن کاملHydrogen and carbon isotope fractionation during degradation of chloromethane by methylotrophic bacteria
Chloromethane (CH3 Cl) is a widely studied volatile halocarbon involved in the destruction of ozone in the stratosphere. Nevertheless, its global budget still remains debated. Stable isotope analysis is a powerful tool to constrain fluxes of chloromethane between various environmental compartments which involve a multiplicity of sources and sinks, and both biotic and abiotic processes. In this ...
متن کاملCarbon isotope fractionation during aerobic biodegradation of n-alkanes and aromatic compounds in unsaturated sand
Microcosm experiments were conducted to quantify carbon isotope fractionation during aerobic biodegradation of n-alkanes (from C3 to C10) and monoaromatic hydrocarbons in unsaturated alluvial sand. In single compound experiments with n-alkanes, the largest enrichment factor was obtained for propane ( 10.8 ± 0.7‰). The magnitude of the enrichment factor decreased with increasing number of carbon...
متن کاملStable isotope fractionation caused by glycyl radical enzymes during bacterial degradation of aromatic compounds.
Stable isotope fractionation was studied during the degradation of m-xylene, o-xylene, m-cresol, and p-cresol with two pure cultures of sulfate-reducing bacteria. Degradation of all four compounds is initiated by a fumarate addition reaction by a glycyl radical enzyme, analogous to the well-studied benzylsuccinate synthase reaction in toluene degradation. The extent of stable carbon isotope fra...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Aerobic Mixed Bacterial Culture Isolated from Hydrocarbon Polluted Soils
In this study, the degradation potential of five polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by aerobic mixed bacterial cultures was investigated. Microorganisms were isolated from hydrocarbon contaminated soils of Shadegan wetland located in southwest of Iran. The degradation experiments were conducted in liquid cultures. PAH or PAHs concentration was 100 mg/L at the beginning of degradation e...
