    Notes: The release of 14CO2 from 9-[14C]phenanthrene, 4,5,9,10-[14C]pyrene and 7-[14C]benzo[a]pyrene, added to Brent/Fortes crude oil and mixed into a pristine sand soil (0.40% organic C) and a pristine organic soil (22.9% organic C), was determined. After 244 days at 25°C, 11.1±3.5% (sand) and 17.1±0.30% (organic) phenanthrene-14C and 9.77±2.8% (sand) and 5.86±1.4% (organic) benzo[a]pyrene-14C was released. After 210 days, 3.65±0.5% (sand) and 4.43±0.33% (organic) pyrene-14C was released. Inoculation of these two soils with DC1 and PD2 (bacteria capable of accelerating the phenanthrene and pyrene mineralisation in soil in the absence of crude oil) either at day 0 or after release as 14CO2 by indigenous degraders had ceased, failed to increase or initiate further mineralisation. Thus, aged PAH residues were non-bioavailable to these metabolically competent degrading microorganisms. At the end of the first period of incubation (210 days or 244 days), the total aromatic hydrocarbons recovered using Soxhlet extraction was 0.18% (sand) and 42.8% (organic) compared with approximately 100% from bio-inhibited soils. This confirmed that the indigenous microbiological activity not only caused a limited amount of PAH mineralisation but also reduced the extractability of residues, possibly due to the generation of metabolites which were chemisorbed and bound (and non extractable) in ‘aged’ soils.

    Notes: Inoculation of soil with bacteria (a Gram-negative rod [PD2] and a 4-membered consortium [DC1]) accelerated mineralisation of phenanthrene and pyrene (but not naphthalene) added individually to a pristine sand and a pristine organic soil. The half-life of naphthalene was 3.5 days in both soils whether inoculated or non-inoculated. However, the half-life of phenanthrene decreased from 86 days in non-inoculated sand soil and 80 days in the non-inoculated organic soil to 3.6 days in the sand and 3.1 days in organic soil when inoculated with PD2, and to 6.6 days in the sand and 8.7 days in the organic soil when inoculated with DC1. Phenanthrene mineralisation ceased after 23 days in DC1-inoculated soil and was 71.3±3.6% (sand) and 63.3±2.8% (organic). This compared with 96.8±3.8% (sand) and 102.8±2.5% (organic) after 8 days in PD2-inoculated soil. Inoculation with DC1 (but not PD2) also accelerated mineralisation of pyrene, where the half-life decreased from 155 days to 18 days in the sand soil, and from 216 days to 33 days in organic soil.

    Biodegradation of diethyl phthalate in soil by a novel pathway (2000)

    Notes: Biodegradation of diethyl phthalate (DEP) has been shown to occur as a series of sequential steps common to the degradation of all phthalates. Primary degradation of DEP to phthalic acid (PA) has been reported to involve the hydrolysis of each of the two diethyl chains of the phthalate to produce the monoester monoethyl phthalate (MEP) and then PA. However, in soil co-contaminated with DEP and MeOH, biodegradation of the phthalate to PA resulted in the formation of three compounds, in addition to MEP. These were characterised by gas chromatography-electron ionisation mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance as ethyl methyl phthalate, dimethyl phthalate and monomethyl phthalate, and indicated the existence of an alternative pathway for the degradation of DEP in soil co-contaminated with MeOH. Transesterification or demethylation were proposed as the mechanisms for the formation of the three compounds, although the 7:1 ratio of H2O to MeOH means that transesterification is unlikely.

    Notes: This study compared different methods of direct DNA extraction and purification from a silt loam soil and investigated the relationship between DNA quantity and sequence diversity. Five extraction methods and four purification techniques were investigated. Quantities of DNA extracted were between 3.4±0.55 and 54.3±8.18 μg g−1 (dry wt) of soil with OD260/OD230 purity ratios between 0.80 and 1.15. Analysis of sequence diversity in all extracts was conducted using PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP). Profiles generated using universal 16S rDNA primers (Com1/Com2) were found to be identical when used to amplify 16S rDNA extracted directly from soil. The genus Pseudomonas was targeted in order to reduce profile complexity, which was apparent when using universal 16S rDNA primers, and which hindered direct comparison of sequence diversity. A Pseudomonas culture library and non-cultured Pseudomonas 16S rDNA genes were used to provide a background count of Pseudomonas operational taxonomic units present in the soil. Cloning and sequencing of amplicons generated using a Pseudomonas-specific (Ps-for) and a universal 16S rDNA (Com2) primer, coupled with nested amplification (Com1/Com2 amplification from Ps-for/Ps-rev amplicons), used in conjunction with SSCP, revealed that environmental contaminants co-extracted with DNA, such as humic acid, significantly reduced primer specificity. SSCP was sensitive enough to reveal template bias in different primer sets. PCR-restriction fragment length-SSCP of Pseudomonas 16S rDNA amplified from soil-extracted DNA revealed distinct differences in sequence representation between extraction methods and showed that greater DNA yield is not synonymous with higher sequence diversity. We, therefore, suggest that DNA extractions from soil should be evaluated not only in terms of quantity and purity, but also in terms of the sequence diversity present. SSCP proved to be a valuable tool for the assessment of the methodologies commonly used in PCR-mediated microbial ecology studies.

    Notes: A soil suspension was used as a source to initiate the development of microbial communities in flow cells irrigated with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) (25 μg ml−1). Culturable bacterial members of the community were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and found to be members of the genera Pseudomonas, Burkholderia, Collimonas and Rhodococcus. A 2,4-D degrading donor strain, Pseudomonas putida SM1443 (pJP4::gfp), was inoculated into flow cell chambers containing 2-day old biofilm communities. Transfer of pJP4::gfp from the donor to the bacterial community was detectable as GFP fluorescing cells and images were captured using confocal scanning laser microscopy (GFP fluorescence was repressed in the donor due to the presence of a chromosomally located lacIq repressor gene). Approximately 5–10 transconjugant microcolonies, 20–40 μm in diameter, could be seen to develop in each chamber. A 2,4-D degrading transconjugant strain was isolated from the flow cell system belonging to the genus Burkholderia.

    Production of a monoclonal antibody specific for a Flavobacterium species isolated from soil (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies (MABs) specific for a soil Flavobacterium species (P25) were isolated. The MAB (D10) was used to target P25 using an enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) and indirect immunofluorescence. Cross-reactivity of the MAB with other Gram-negative bacteria (including Flavobacterium spp.) and a number of Gram-positive bacteria was investigated but none were found. Cross-reactivity with other orange/yellow pigmented Gram-negative rods (Pseudomonas/Flavobacterium type) isolated from the soil into which P25 has been introduced in field experiments was also assessed using a modified colony blotting procedure. None of the indigenous species tested were recognised by the monoclonal antibody, thereby allowing unambiguous identification of P25 in soil. The MAB D10 was shown to recognise P25 growth under low-nutrient or stored under starvation conditions, suggesting that the antigen is a constitutive component of the cell and that the microorganism should be detected in oligotrophic environments such as soil. The pattern of fluorescence of P25 gave a clear indication of the localisation of the antigen in the outer membrane/cell wall region, and this was confirmed by immunogold labelling. Preliminary studies on the limits of detection of P25 using immunofluorescence suggest that densities as low as 20 bacteria g−1 soil can be enumerated.

    Notes: Summary Laccase was covalently immobilised to activated carbon using four derivatisation methods. The highest bound activity was obtained using diimide coupling of laccase to carboxyl groups on the carbon. The maximum bound activity was reached at 11.5 mg laccase/g carbon. The carbon-immobilised laccase (CIL) was stable at pH values from 4.0 to 9.0. CIL stored at 4°C lost 38± 5% activity in the first 4 days, then a further 22±5% in 126 days. CIL showed increased stability to low pH although the pH optimum was unchanged. The activation energy of CIL was lower than soluble laccase. Oxidation of 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (DMP) by CIL in a packed-bed system was only 30±10% of that in a fluidised bed system. Of the initial activity 10–30% was retained after oxidation of seven batches of DMP. CIL removed colour from two industrial effluents. Colour was removed from pulp mill bleach plant effluent at 115 colour units per enzyme unit per hour and the removal rate increased with increasing effluent concentration.

    Notes: Summary Colour removal from phenplic industrial effluents by phenol oxidase enzymes and white-rot fungi was compared. Soluble laccase and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) removed colour from pulp mill (E), cotton mill hydroxide (OH) and cotton mill sulphide (S) effluents, but rapid and irreversible enzyme inactivation took place. Entrapment of laccase in alginate beads improved decolorization by factors of 3.5 (OH) and 2 (E); entrapment of HRP improved decolorization by 36 (OH), 20 (E) and 9 (S). Beads were unsuitable for continuous use because the enzymes were rapidly released into solution. Co-polymerization of laccase or HRP with L-tyrosine gave insoluble polymers with enzyme activity. Entrapment of the co-polymers in gel beads further increased the efficiency of decolorization of E by 28 (laccase) and by 132 (HRP) compared with soluble enzymes. Maximum decolorization of all three effluents by batch cultures of Coriolus versicolor (70%–80% in 8 days) was greater than the maximum enzymic decolorization (48% of OH in 3 days by entrapped laccase). Soluble laccase (222 units ml−1) precipitated 1.2 g l−1 phenol from artificial coal conversion effluent at pH 6.0 and the rate of precipitation and enzyme inactivation was faster at pH 6.0 than at pH 8.5.
