- Surfactants are amphiphilic compounds with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts. This allows them to accumulate at the interfaces between air and water, or water and oil phases and lower the surface tension. According to their charge in aqueous solutions, surfactants can be grouped into anionic, nonionic, cationic, or amphoteric classes (Im et al., 2008). The low price and beneficial properties of anionic surfactants make them popular additives to a wide range of products such as: cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, household and industrial cleaning products, and in agriculture as adjuvants improving pesticide spraying properties and penetration.
- Anionic surfactants such as detergents e.g. lauryl sulfate (SDS, sodium dodecyl sulfate) are known to have bacteriostatic or even bactericidal properties and inhibit the growth of some nitrogen-assimilating cyanobacteria, algae, crustaceans, and also fishes (Lechuga et al., 2016; Sandbacka et al., 2000).
- Amphoteric features of anionic surfactants underly the mechanism of their accumulation in living organisms and toxicity. Negatively charged acidic part (sulphate group in case of SDS) interact with intracellular components by electrostatic forces, while long chain alcohol binds to cellular proteins by hydrophobic forces (Cserhati et al., 2002).
- lauryl sulfate is one of the most popular detergent proposed for soil bioremediation (Yu et al., 2007; Zhou and Zhu, 2008; Moldes et al., 2013).
- bioremediation stimulated by lauryl sulfate expert suggest use in parallel several types of microorganisms with different biochemical properties.
- microorganisms capable of degrading xenobiotics but resistant to high concentrations of detergent Next to use of microorganisms effectively removing surface active agents from environment, when the xenobiotic bioremediation process was completed.
- microorganisms were selected from environments highly contaminated solely with detergents where there were no other xenobiotics present.
- Surface active agents such as detergents are also widely used as an additives to products containing pesticides allowing the final product to fullfil demands of the end user.
- sulfatases EC 3.1.6.-
- This heterogeneous group of enzymes can be divided into at least three distinct classes, depending on the mechanism of catalysis (Kertesz, 2000).
- the first group gathers arylsulfatases, proteins with highly conserved consensus motif
- the second group consists of Fe(ll) dependent dioxygenases, catalyzing an oxidative cleavage of the sulfate ester to the corresponding aldehyde and inorganic sulfate, with AtsK from Pseudomonas putida as a model example (Miiller et al., 2004).
- the third class includes enzymes with the metallo-3-lactamase-like domain at the N-terminus and SCP-2-like domain at C-terminus of the protein, involved in the binding of sterols.
- this sulfatase class is represented by four sulfatases with different substrate specificity: SdsA having activity towards sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (Davison et al., 1992), SdsAP and SdsA1 active toward primary sulfate esters including sodium dodecyl sulfate (Hagelueken et al., 2006; Long et al., 201 1 ; Schober et al., 201 1 ) and PisA1 specific towards secondary alkyl sulfates (Schober et al., 201 1 ).
- Enzymes from this group differ in the mechanism of action and have ability to catalyze cleavage either of S-0 or C-0 bond causing, in case of assymetrical substrate, the retention or inversion of the product alcohol, which could be verified using chiral or labeled substrates.
- SdsA1 and PisA1 proteins revealed that both sulfatases catalyze cleavage of the C-0 bond.

This strategy allowed to isolate microorganisms capable of both degradation of surface active agents as well as having resistance to high concentrations of other xenobiotics, e.g. pesticides. Moreover, the experiments also revealed in the isolated microorganisms presence of enzymes with alkylsulfatase activity, which are able to catalyze the cleavage of the sodium dodecyl sulfate to the sulfiric acid residue and the long-chain alcohol.
