Phenol biodegradation by isolated Citrobacter strain under hypersaline conditions

Abstract: Phenol is a toxic pollutant in many kinds of hypersaline industrial effluents that should be treated properly before discharged into water bodies. In this work, a halophilic strain which could utilize phenol as the sole source of carbon and energy was isolated. Based on 16S rRNA results, it was identified as a member of Citrobacter. The phenol biodegradation ability and cell growth of the strain was evaluated with the variation of initial phenol concentration and salinity. The effect of temperature and pH on p… Show more

“…4 shows that the cell growth rate and CB degradation rate reached the maximum at approximately 30% of the degradation rate at NaCl concentration of 0.05 mol L À1 , which may due to the cellular water loss or cytoplasm recession under high salt concentration. 47 Correspondingly, the cell growth rate also had similar changes. Trace salinity was good for cell growth and CB degradation, whereas high salinity inhibited cell growth and CB degradation remarkably.…”

“…This phenomenon was similar to many previous studies that the removal performance of pollutants by isolated microorganisms worsened at temperatures that were too low or too high. [32][33][34] Regarding pH, Fig. 3B shows satisfactory performance when the pH was 8.0, at which 1000 mg L À1 phenol was completely degraded within 60 h at 5% NaCl.…”

“…Citrobacter spp. are part of the normal flora of human and animal intestines and have been reported to degrade not only phenol, tannic acid, and lignocellulose, but also to reduce the toxicity of methyl parathion and p -nitrophenol under certain conditions (Deng et al 2018 ; Kumar et al 1999 ; Pino and Peñuela 2011 ; Wang et al 2021 ). Citrobacter spp.…”
