Profenofos insecticide degradation by novel microbial consortium and isolates enriched from contaminated chili farm soil

Abstract: Profenofos (PF) is one of the heavily used organophosphorus pesticides (OPPs) of which its contamination is ubiquitous in an agricultural area. This study aims to acquire and characterize PF-degrading bacterial cultures from contaminated soil. OPP degradation by the novel isolates was then investigated. The experiment was performed at the initial PF concentration of 20 mg/L. The result showed that the enriched consortium comprised three predominant PF-degrading strains designated as PF1, PF2, and PF3. The isol… Show more

“…Bioremediation is an efficient, eco‐friendly, and economical method for the decontaminated of polluted ecosystems. Profenofos has been reported to be degraded by Pseudomonas putida and Burkholderia gladioli [12], Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Bacillus subtilis , and Pseudomonas species . These organisms were shown to degrade profenofos by hydrolysis to yield 4‐bromo‐2‐chlorophenol as metabolite but its complete degradative pathway has not been studied.…”

“…G1 (Deng et al ., ), several Pseudomonas sp . (Siripattanakul‐Ratpukdi et al ., ) and others have been isolated and reported to utilize organophosphate pesticides as their sole carbon sources. Recently, the catabolic pathway of chlorpyrifos degradation in C. nantognensis X1 T (Fang et al ., ) was reported.…”
