To establish large‐scale cultivation of Dehalococcoides, 7–10 litre culturing of Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain NIT01 was performed using three different vessels made of glass, stainless alloy SUS304, and titanium. The unbreakable titanium vessel demonstrated complete dechlorination of trichloroethene (TCE) to ethene, even after being reused five ...

Organohalide-respiring bacteria have been linked to the cycling and possible respiration of chlorinated natural organic matter (Cl-NOM) in uncontaminated soils and sediments. The importance of non-respiratory hydrolytic/oxidative dechlorination processes

Coexistence of two distinct Sulfurospirillum populations respiring tetrachloroethene - genomic and kinetic considerations [PDF]
Two anaerobic bacterial consortia, each harboring a distinct Sulfurospirillum population, were derived from a 10 year old consortium, SL2, previously characterized for the stepwise dechlorination of tetrachloroethene (PCE) to cis-dichloroethene (cis-DCE)

Abstract Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a toxic organic compound, which can adversely affect human health. The chemical is one of the most frequently found contaminants in groundwater in the United States and around the world. A landfill in Maryland contaminated with high levels of TCE decades ago was added to the U.S.

Abstract Soil is a nonrenewable resource, and groundwater is a critical source of drinking water. Effective soil and water protection, assessment and, if affected, recovery from contamination are priorities around the world; eco‐friendly interventions in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are favored objectives.

Organohalide compounds are widespread in the environment as a result of both anthropogenic activities and natural production. The marine environment, in particular, is a major reservoir of organohalides, and reductive dehalogenation is thought to be an ...

Sulfurospirillum species strains are frequently detected in various pristine and contaminated environments and participate in carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, and halogen elements cycling. Recently we obtained the complete genome sequences of two newly isolated

Sister Dehalobacter Genomes Reveal Specialization in Organohalide Respiration and Recent Strain Differentiation Likely Driven by Chlorinated Substrates [PDF]
The genomes of two closely related Dehalobacter strains (strain CF and strain DCA) were assembled from the metagenome of an anaerobic enrichment culture that reductively dechlorinates chloroform (CF), 1,1,1-trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) and 1,1 ...

Ecogenomics of microbial communities in bioremediation of chlorinated contaminated sites
Organohalide compounds such as chloroethenes, chloroethanes and polychlorinated benzenes are among the most significant pollutants in the world. These compounds are often found in contamination plumes with other pollutants such as solvents, pesticides ...
