Microbial reductive dehalogenation of trihalomethanes by a Dehalobacter-containing co-culture
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2017Trihalomethanes such as chloroform and bromoform, although well-known as a prominent class of disinfection by-products, are ubiquitously distributed in the environment due to widespread industrial usage in the past decades. Chloroform and bromoform are particularly concerning, of high concentrations detected and with long half-lives up to several ...

Genome Sequence ofDehalobacterUNSWDHB, a Chloroform-Dechlorinating Bacterium [PDF]
Genome Announcements, 2013 The chloroform-respiring bacterium Dehalobacter UNSWDHB was isolated from subsurface soil contaminated with a mixture of organohalides, including chloroform. Here, we present its 3.2-Mb genome.

Dehalogenation of chlorobenzenes, dichlorotoluenes, and tetrachloroethene by three Dehalobacter spp.
Environmental Science & Technology, 2014Three enrichment cultures containing Dehalobacter spp. were developed that dehalogenate each of the dichlorobenzene (DCB) isomers to monochlorobenzene (MCB), and the strains using 1,2-DCB (12DCB1) or 1,3-DCB (13DCB1) are now considered isolated, whereas the strain using 1,4-DCB (14DCB1) is considered highly enriched.

Identification of Dehalobacter reductive dehalogenases that catalyse dechlorination of chloroform, 1,1,1-trichloroethane and 1,1-dichloroethane [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013 Two novel reductive dehalogenases (RDases) that are highly similar to each other but catalyse distinct dechlorination reactions were identified from Dehalobacter -containing mixed cultures. These two RDases were partially purified from crude protein extracts of anaerobic dechlorinating enrichment cultures using blue

Involvement of Dehalobacter strains in the anaerobic dechlorination of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol.
Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2013A culture reductively dechlorinating 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) was enriched from a sediment contaminated with chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons. The culture dechlorinated 100 μM of 2,4,6-TCP to 4-chlorophenol within 15 days utilizing H2 and a yeast extract as an electron donor and carbon source, respectively.

Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) is the most widely used brominated flame retardant on the market. It has been detected in various environmental samples, and a growing body of evidence has demonstrated its toxic effects on living organisms. In this study, we report the enrichment and phylogenetic identification of bacteria that debrominate TBBPA to ...

The role of bacteria and zerovalent iron (Fe(0)) in the degradation of chlorinated solvents in subsurface environments is of interest to researchers and remediation practitioners alike. Fe(0) used in reactive iron barriers for groundwater remediation positively interacted with enrichment cultures containing Dehalobacter strains in the transformation of

The restricted metabolism of the obligate organohalide respiring bacterium Dehalobacter restrictus: lessons from tiered functional genomics [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013 Dehalobacter restrictus strain PER-K23 is an obligate organohalide respiring bacterium, which displays extremely narrow metabolic capabilities. It grows only via coupling energy conservation to anaerobic respiration of tetra- and trichloroethene with hydrogen as sole electron donor. Dehalobacter restrictus
