“…To date, only three studies have isolated bacteria involved in the metabolism of acrylic acid (2,24,71), highlighting a lack of knowledge in this area. The isolates derived from our coral samples were related to Photobacterium, Halomonas, and Shewanella spp., as well as to several Vibrio spp.…”

Marine bacteria play a central role in the degradation of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) to dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and acrylic acid, DMS being critical to cloud formation and thereby cooling effects on the climate. High concentrations of DMSP and DMS have been reported in scleractinian coral tissues although, to date, there have been no investigations into the influence of these organic sulfur compounds on coralassociated bacteria. Two coral species, Montipora aequituberculata and Acropora millepora, were sampled and their bacterial communities were characterized by both culture-dependent and molecular techniques. Four genera, Roseobacter, Spongiobacter, Vibrio, and Alteromonas, which were isolated on media with either DMSP or DMS as the sole carbon source, comprised the majority of clones retrieved from coral mucus and tissue 16S rRNA gene clone libraries. Clones affiliated with Roseobacter sp. constituted 28% of the M. aequituberculata tissue libraries, while 59% of the clones from the A. millepora libraries were affiliated with sequences related to the Spongiobacter genus. Vibrio spp. were commonly isolated from DMS and acrylic acid enrichments and were also present in 16S rRNA gene libraries from coral mucus, suggesting that under "normal" environmental conditions, they are a natural component of coral-associated communities. Genes homologous to dddD, and dddL, previously implicated in DMSP degradation, were also characterized from isolated strains, confirming that bacteria associated with corals have the potential to metabolize this sulfur compound when present in coral tissues. Our results demonstrate that DMSP, DMS, and acrylic acid potentially act as nutrient sources for coral-associated bacteria and that these sulfur compounds are likely to play a role in structuring bacterial communities in corals, with important consequences for the health of both corals and coral reef ecosystems.Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is an organic sulfur compound implicated in the formation of clouds via its cleavage product dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and therefore has the potential to exert major cooling effects on climate (9, 38). The production of DMSP is mainly restricted to a few classes of marine macro-and microalgae (27,68), with the main producers being phytoplankton species belonging to prymnesiophyte and dinoflagellate taxa (28,62,67). Recently, significant concentrations of DMSP and DMS have been recorded in association with animals that harbor symbiotic algae such as scleractinian corals and giant clams (7,8,68), raising questions about the role of coral reefs in sulfur cycling. The densities of symbiotic dinoflagellates (genus Symbiodinium, commonly known as zooxanthellae) in coral tissues are similar to those recorded for dinoflagellates in phytoplankton blooms (11, 68). Since dinoflagellates are among the most significant producers of DMSP and high intracellular concentrations of DMSP have been found in both cultured zooxanthellae (26) and scleractinian corals (6-8, 25), these observations suggest that endos...

“…Another study ) evaluated the effect of HRT on a similar system. Wang and Lee (2006) by high resolution GC-MS. Calibration curves and method detection limits obtained for these solvents using the two SPME fibres confirmed that the 100-PDMS fibre provided better sensitivity, but the saturation was reached at a lower concentration than 85-PA fibre. Lu et al (2006) carried out an analysis of chemical compositions that may contribute to the COD of oilfield produced water treatment system.…”
