Sphingomonas from petroleum-contaminated soils in Shenfu, China and their PAHs degradation abilities

Abstract: Members of the Sphingomonas genus are often isolated from petroleum-contaminated soils due to their unique abilities to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are important for in situ bioremediation. In this study, a combined phenotypic and genotypic approach using streptomycin-containing medium and Sphingomonas-specific PCR was developed to isolate and identify culturable Sphingomonas strains present in petroleum-contaminated soils in the Shenfu wastewater irrigation zone. Of the 15 soil samp… Show more

“…Studies on Sphingomonas that we have seen are mainly distributed in the eld of environmental science. Sphingomonas are often isolated from petroleum contaminated soils due to their unique abilities to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) [28] , which has been recognized as a de nite carcinogen in the world. While another study [29] suggests that both HPV infection and PAHs are critical factors in the development of cervical cancer.…”

“…Members of this genus are able to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and are frequently isolated from petroleum-contaminated soils; they are important for in situ bioremediation (Balkwill et al, 1997;Zhou et al, 2016). The genus Chitinophaga was also found under the Atlantic Forest vegetation.…”
