Isolation and optimization of microbial consortia for the biodegradation of two persistent fluorinated fungicides

Alexandrino D., Mucha A., Almeida C., (Corresponding) Carvalho M.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

Microbial consortia capable of completely removing and defluorinating two persistent fluorinated fungicides, epoxiconazole (EPO) and fludioxonil (FLU), were enriched from an estuarine sediment and an agriculture soil. The enrichments were conducted along 6 months, during which the fungicides were...Read more

Study of the potential of Rhodococcus strains for degradation of the pesticide Glyphosate (Roundup)

Gerginova M., Peneva N., (Corresponding) Alexieva Z.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

The experiments were aimed at studying the tolerance of the studied strains of Rhodococcus sp. M1 and Rhodococcus sp. D1 to the presence of Glyphosate (N- (phosphonomethyl) glycine) in the culture medium. A rich organic medium (YEPD), a mineral medium (VD) with 1% glucose and a mineral medium...Read more

Biodegradation of anthracene by an Antarctic fungal strain a member of genus Alternaria

Gerginova M., Stoyanova K., Peneva N., (Corresponding) Alexieva Z.

Topic:

Soil and groundwater contamination and remediation

By the aim to characterize the ability of an isolated from Antarctic soils fungal strain termed Alternaria maritima AL10 to degrade anthracene as sole carbon sources at different temperature conditions (23°C and 10°C), research has performed. The results from GC-MS analysis have shown that the...Read more
