Abstract

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Ochrobactrum sp. demonstrated the highest rates of dye bioremediation. The trials were performed at pH 8, which resulted in the highest bioremediation rate of 64.6% in media containing 21.2 mg [L.sup.-1] dye. As the dye concentration increased, the pollutant removal decreased, with the maximum bioremoval rate of 70.3%. The removal capacity was increased with an increase in biomass concentration; the highest yield of 91.3% was obtained in media containing 14.2 mg [L.sup.-1] dye and 12% (v/v) biomass. In nanoremediation studies, the bacterial consortium was immobilized on cellulose acetate nanofiber mats (CA-NFM). Scanning electron microscopic micrographs showed that bead-free nanofiber mats were effective in immobilizing bacterial cells. Moreover, nanofiber structures were capable of supporting exopolysaccharides formation, as confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The bacterial consortium immobilized on CA-NFM showed a maximum bioremoval rate of 56.5%. Reusability tests demonstrated that the consortium immobilized CA-NFM could be used at least five times. Furthermore, after leaving the mat for 1 month at 4[degrees]C, it was still usable, and the removal efficiency was found to be 45.4%. Based on our findings, bacteria immobilized on CA-NFM have the potential to be used as highly effective and versatile nanobiotechnological biological sorbents in the treatment of wastewater containing dyes. Highlights * Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Ochrobactrum sp. were used as a bacterial consortium. * Bacterial consortium immobilized on cellulose acetate nanofiber mats (CA-NFM) was tested. * EPS production by the consortium was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis. * CA-NFM could be used at least five times. KEYWORDS bacteria, cellulose acetate nanofiber, dye, nanoremediation, wastewater, 1 | INTRODUCTION As industrialization continues to grow, wastewater pollutants have become a concerning issue.

Abstract

Emerald ash borer (EAB) has killed millions of ash trees in the United States and Canada, yet impacts on terrestrial- aquatic linkages are largely unknown. Ash tree death along streams creates canopy gaps, increasing light to riparian plants and potentially affecting organic matter subsidies. Six EAB-related canopy gaps along streams across a gradient of timing of EAB invasion in Michigan were characterized for coarse woody material (CWM), terrestrial and aquatic leaf litter and their associated bacterial communities, and macroinvertebrates upstream, downstream, and at the center of the gap. Stream sites downstream of EAB-related canopy gaps had significantly lower dissolved oxygen and macroinvertebrate diversity than sites upstream and at the gaps. Yet there was no difference in CWM or aquatic leaf litter, likely due to downstream movement of organic matter from upstream riparian sources. Low abundance bacterial amplicon sequence variants unique to gap or forest were detected in leaves and leaf litter, suggesting that EAB-related canopy gaps altered leaf-associated bacterial communities. Overall, EAB invasion indirectly impacted some variables, while organic matter dynamics were resistant to change. Key words: Emerald ash borer, terrestrial-aquatic linkages, leaf litter, aquatic communities, Introduction Invasive species are a critical natural resource concern, due to their environmental and economic repercussions (Vitousek et al. 1997; McGeoch and Jetz 2019).

Abstract

A bacterium that can degrade the common polymer polybutylene succinate (PBS), which naturally biodegrades to only a limited extent in marine environments, could lead to improved ways to recycle this polymer. The bacterium's potential, and its enzyme molecule that breaks down PBS, was discovered by researchers at Hokkaido University, working with colleagues at the Mitsubishi Chemical Group in Japan. The team published their results in the journal Environmental Microbiology. PBS is generally regarded as an eco-friendly polymer due to its biodegradability when discarded on land and exposed to the atmosphere. This has led to its increasing use since the early 1990s in industrial plastics, including mulching films, compostable bags and catering packaging. But many discarded plastics eventually find their way into the sea, and unfortunately PBS does not biodegrade well in that environment. As only a small number of marine microorganisms able to biodegrade PBS had been discovered previously, Sawabe and his colleagues set out to try to find others and with better activity. They examined the effect on PBS of microbes gathered from natural seawater off Japan, allowing them to identify several types of marine bacteria that could degrade it. They also identified the enzyme responsible for degrading PBS in a specific strain of bacteria called Vibrio ruber. They named the enzyme PBSase. They then took things further by using molecular biological techniques to insert the gene for PBSase into the common bacterium Escherichia coli, which they cultured to produce highly purified samples of the enzyme for further study. The availability of the purified enzyme also allowed the researchers to examine its structure, with simulations suggesting it was closely related to a different enzyme known to degrade another common polymer: polyethylene terephthalate (PET). This research is part of wider efforts to address the complexity of biodegradable polymer technologies caused by their differing biodegradability on land and in the sea. By learning more about what controls biodegradability in different environments, scientists will hopefully develop polymers that are best suited to the environments they are used in, and those that they may end up in after use.

Abstract

Additions of labile organic carbon (C) enhanced bacterial production (BP) and were associated with increases in crustacean zooplankton and planktivorous fish biomasses. This was shown in a mesocosm experiment where we traced the contribution of BP to zooplankton and fish using stable isotopes and labile glucose-C as a biomarker. BP increased with glucose-C addition, and all zooplankton and fish incorporated some glucose-C. However, the effect of labile-C addition on zooplankton was taxa-dependant, as although cladocerans incorporated the most labile-C, increased BP did not affect cladoceran biomass. Instead, calanoid copepod biomass increased with glucose addition. This suggests that the ability to selectively graze on high quality food, such as bacterial grazing protists capable of trophic upgrading, had a stronger positive effect on calanoid copepods biomass than unselective grazing on bacteria and protists had on cladoceran biomass. Higher BP was associated with increased survival and population growth of young-of-the-year perch (Perca fluviatilis) when stocked at high densities, which suggested that BP had a density-dependant positive effect on fish growth. Les additions de carbone (C) organique labile augmentent la production bacterienne (PB) et sont associees a des accroissements des biomasses des crustaces zooplanctoniques et des poissons planctonophages. Cela est bien demontre dans une experience en microcosme dans laquelle nous avons pu suivre la contribution de la BP au zooplancton et aux poissons al'aide d'isotopes stables et du C-glucose comme biomarqueur. La BP augmente avec l'addition de C-glucose et tout le zooplancton et les poissons incorporent du C-glucose. Cependant, les effets de l'addition de C labile sur le zooplancton depend des taxons, puisque meme si les cladoceres incorporent le plus le C labile, l'augmentation de la BP n'affecte pas la biomasse des cladoceres. En revanche, la biomasse des copepodes calanoi'des augmente avec l'addition de glucose. Cela laisse penser que la capacite de brouter de facon selective des aliments de haute qualite, tels que des protistes qui se nourrissent de bacteries et sont capables d'un surclassement trophique, a un effet positif plus fort sur les copepodes calanoi'des, que le broutage non selectif de bacteries et de protistes peut avoir sur la biomasse des cladoceres. La BP plus elevee est associee a une survie et une croissance de population plus fortes des jeunes perches (Perca fluviatilis)de l'annee lorsqu'elles sont empoissonnees a forte densite, ce qui laisse croire que la BP a un effet positif dependant de la densite sur la croissance des poissons.

Abstract

An increase in waterborne disease outbreaks and illnesses related to public swimming facilities in the past few decades prompted a Colorado metropolitan public health and environment division to assess bacteriological contamination of local public swimming facilities and determine if routine bacteriological sampling may be warranted. In the study discussed in this article, 27 chlorinated public swimming facilities were sampled twice within two consecutive weeks for total coliform, fecal coliform, and heterotrophic plate count (HPC) bacteria. Data from this study suggest that 11% of the public swimming facilities were in excess of public health standards for total coliform bacteria and that 18.5% of the public swimming facilities were in excess of public health standards for HPC bacteria. According to the research data and the reviewed literature, the results indicate that the contamination observed in excess of public health standards was most likely the result of inadequate water treatment operations and activities., Introduction It is estimated that 7.4 million swimming facilities are used and visited by the American public each year. This multitude of communal bathing makes swimming or swimming-related activities two [...]
