Unraveling the metabolic interactions of a Dehalobacter-containing anaerobic mixed culture for bioremediation

Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB), such as Dehalobacter, play key roles in the bioremediation of anoxic environments contaminated with chlorinated aromatic compounds.

Anaerobic Biodegradation of Chloroform and Dichloromethane with a Dehalobacter Enrichment Culture [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2021
Chloroform (CF) and dichloromethane (DCM) are among the more commonly identified chlorinated aliphatic compounds found in contaminated soil and groundwater. One way to address this problem is to add microbes to the subsurface that can biodegrade these compounds.

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

Resilience and functional redundancy of methanogenic digestion microbiome safeguard recovery of methanogenesis activity under the stress induced by microplastics

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 ...

Respiratory protein interactions in Dehalobacter sp. strain 8M revealed through genomic and native proteomic analyses

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 11, Page 2604-2620, November 2023., 2023
Dehalobacter can respire with chlorinated methanes (chloroform) and ethanes. Genome sequencing, proteome analyses and enzymatic assays identify TmrA as the responsible enzyme. It is organized in a larger membrane‐bound respiratory complex. RdhC, a protein encoded in the same operon, appears to be another membrane‐bound electron‐transferring protein but

Responses of Anabaena sp. PCC7120 to lindane: Physiological effects and differential expression of potential lin genes

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.

Reductive Dehalogenation Of Chlorinated Benzenes: A Role For Dehalobacter Spp. [PDF]

, 2012
Chlorinated benzenes have been extensively used in industry and agriculture and are common groundwater pollutants. Chlorobenzenes readily migrate to anaerobic zones in sediment and groundwater, thus understanding the fate of these compounds and anaerobic

Role of Microbes and Nanomaterials in the Removal of Pesticides from Wastewater

International Journal of Photoenergy, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Pesticides are a class of xenobiotic compounds that are recalcitrant and show persistence in the environment for a longer period of time. Research studies have linked their potential for mutagenicity, teratogenicity, and carcinogenicity. The accumulation of pesticides in water sources due to runoff from agricultural lands has posed a serious threat to ...
