In this study, malathion degrading phosphate solubilizing bacteria were identified using NBRIP (National Botanical Research Institute’s phosphate growth medium) media. A number of bacterial colonies were screened from agricultural fields. From primarily screened colonies 4 isolates were identified as phosphate solubilizing bacteria through qualitative and quantitative analysis. The isolated 4 bacterial colonies were inoculated in NBRIP broth media enriched with malathion pesticides to observe degradation of malathion pesticide under incubation study at three different temperatures (25°C, 30°C and 37°C). However, all the four isolates showed capability in degrading malathion pesticide. The study clearly revealed that phosphate solubilizing bacteria can be used in bioremediation of environmental pollution caused by malathion pesticide.展开更多

Phosphorus is involved in several pathologies: in human with bone and kidney diseases, in mammals with metabolism disorder (glucose, insulin···), in microorganisms whose phosphorus is involved in cell growth. Phosphorus has various forms including pyrophosphate, a by-product of multiple pathways of biosynthesis. Enzymes that hydrolyze pyrophosphate are called inorganic pyrophosphatases (PPases). Two major types of inorganic pyrophosphatases are distinguished: the soluble pyrophosphatases (sPPases) and the membrane pyrophosphatases (mPPases or H+/Na+-PPases). They play a key role in the control of intracellular inorganic pyrophosphate level and produce an important ions gradient (H+ or Na+) to the cells. In this work, we primarily focused on the physiological study in a phosphate-poor medium of two models Tetrahymena thermophile and Tetrahymena pyriformis, following the mobility, the growth and the morphology of cells. Secondly, we evaluated the enzymatic activity of soluble and membrane pyrophosphatases in both species grown in the same complex medium. A decrease of cell growth is correlated with unusual morphologies and different mobility in the stress medium. The measurement of soluble and membrane inorganic pyrophosphatases activities also shows a decrease which illustrates the lack of phosphate found in the stress medium. Deficiency of phosphate is a limiting factor for protozoan growth. These results indicate that Tetrahymena can be used as a model of cellular stress and consists of a target to study inorganic pyrophosphatases for a better understanding of phosphate cycle in higher organisms.展开更多
