1,2-DCA biodegradation potential of an aquifer assessed in situ and in aerobic and anaerobic microcosms. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiomeBackground 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCA) biodegradation can occur through aerobic or anaerobic pathways that can be exploited in bioremediation strategies.

Burning question: Rethinking organohalide degradation strategy for bioremediation applications. [PDF]
Microb BiotechnolThis review specifically focuses on the novel solution of organohalide bioremediation, proposing redox‐potential‐mediated hybrid bioprocesses tailored to the complexities of organohalide pollution. Abstract Organohalides are widespread pollutants that pose significant environmental hazards due to their high degree of halogenation and elevated redox ...

Refined experimental annotation reveals conserved corrinoid autotrophy in chloroform-respiring Dehalobacter isolates [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2016 Abstract Two novel chlorinated alkane-respiring Dehalobacter restrictus strains CF and DCA were isolated from the same enrichment culture, ACT-3, and characterized. The closed genomes of these highly similar sister strains were previously assembled from metagenomic sequence data and annotated.

Direct loop mediated isothermal amplification on filters for quantification of Dehalobacter in groundwater. [PDF]
Journal of Microbiological Methods, 2016 Nucleic acid amplification of biomarkers is increasingly used to monitor microbial activity and assess remedial performance in contaminated aquifers. Previous studies described the use of filtration, elution, and direct isothermal amplification (i.e. no DNA extraction and purification) as a field-able means to quantify Dehalococcoides spp.

Field Test of a Bioelectrochemical Membrane-Less Reactor for Chlorinated Aliphatic Hydrocarbon and Nitrate Removal from a Contaminated Groundwater. [PDF]
ChempluschemThis study evaluates a membrane‐less bioelectrochemical reactor in a real groundwater remediation scenario, targeting chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons and nitrate contamination. Electron supply via graphite granules biocathode stimulates reductive dechlorination and nitrate reduction, despite competing processes like sulfate reduction and ...

Semi-automatic in silico gap closure enabled de novo assembly of two Dehalobacter genomes from metagenomic data. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Typically, the assembly and closure of a complete bacterial genome requires substantial additional effort spent in a wet lab for gap resolution and genome polishing.

bioRxiv, 2023 Chloroform (CF) and dichloromethane (DCM) contaminate groundwater sites around the world, which can be remediated through bioaugmentation. Although several strains of Dehalobacter restrictus can reduce CF to DCM, and multiple Peptococcaceae can ferment ...

mLife, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 378-388, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Microplastics and nanoplastics are emerging pollutants that substantially influence biological element cycling in natural ecosystems. Plastics are also prevalent in sewage, and they accumulate in waste‐activated sludge (WAS). However, the impacts of plastics on the methanogenic digestion of WAS and the underpinning microbiome remain ...

A Novel Dehalobacter Species Is Involved in Extensive 4,5,6,7-Tetrachlorophthalide Dechlorination [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2009 ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was the enrichment and phylogenetic identification of bacteria that dechlorinate 4,5,6,7-tetrachlorophthalide (commercially designated “fthalide”), an effective fungicide for rice blast disease. Sequential transfer culture of a paddy soil with lactate and fthalide produced a soil-free enrichment

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 12, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023 In this article, the tolerance of Anabaena sp. to lindane was studied as well as the expression of its potential lin genes. Our goal was to obtain information to create strategies for lindane bioremediation and also to find the induction of genes in the presence of lindane that can be used in the development of whole‐cell biosensors.
