Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new bacterial strain
- Novosphingobium puteolanum PPlY (DSM 19530), isolated from seawater samples collected at the sea surface inside the harbour of Pozzuoli (NA).
- This strain shows the ability to use as the sole carbon and energy source several mono- and poly-cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons both in pure form and dissolved in oils as paraffin oils and silicone oils.
- the strain PPlY is able to use as the sole source of carbon and energy the aromatic fractions of several fuel oils as gasoline, kerosene and diesel oil.
- the strain produces extracellular material, prevalently composed by proteins, with emulsifying and gelatinizing activity which stabilizes the emulsion of the oil phase in water/oil biphasic systems.
- the metabolic abilities of this strain could be used for the bioremediation of complex mixtures of mono- and poly-cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons even when dissolved in oil phases. Moreover the strain could be used as source of molecules with emulsifying and gelatinizing activity and of enzymatic catalysts for the biosynthesis of compounds with high added value.
- the present invention relates to a new bacterial strain able to degrade mono- and poly-cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons dissolved in oil phases and to synthesise molecules with emulsifying and gelatinizing activity.
- PAH poly-cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
- benzene, benz[a]anthracene, benzo[a]pyrene and chrysene are known carcinogenic compounds.
- the high chemical stability, the low biodegradability and the lipophylicity favour their accumulation in the environment and inside living organisms (biomagnification).
- Resistance to degradation, hydrophobicity and hence ability to adhere to substrates (soil, mud, sand etc.) increase with the number of methyl groups and aromatic rings.
- the main source of aromatic hydrocarbons released into the environment are crude oil and all the oil fuels derived from crude oil distillation. Even if the composition of crude oil varies depending on the oilfield, it can contain up to 40-45% aromatic hydrocarbons, from the simple benzene molecule to complex PAHs containing ten or more rings. Gasoline can contain up to 20-25% monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, including benzene, and 5-10% PAHs. Kerosene and diesel oil for cars contain up to 15-20% PAHs and 5-10% monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Heavier fractions of crude oil contain even higher percentages of PAHs, for example diesel oil used in boats contains higher concentrations of PAHs than diesel oil used in cars.
- Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons including the known carcinogenic molecules benz[a]anthracene, benzo[a]pyrene and chrysene, are also generated by all the combustion reactions of organic matter. For example incinerators of municipal wastes and forest fires are important source of PAHs.
- Residual oils become enriched by the less biodegradable hydrocarbons as o-xylene, trimethylbenzenes, PAHs and highly branched saturated hydrocarbons. Due to the surfactants and to the degradation of saturated hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons can be dispersed into the environment rather than degraded. Moreover the surfactants themselves can persist into the environment contributing to increase the chemical pollution.
- the efficacy of the bioremediation interventions could be increased by enriching the endogenous micro-flora with strains able to degrade preferentially recalcitrant aromatic compounds as PAHs - thus producing oils with a low content of aromatic hydrocarbons - and to produce "biosurfactants" which would avoid or reduce the necessity to use synthetic surfactants.
- the present invention provides a new bacterial strain, Novosphingobium puteolanum PPlY, able to degrade a very wide spectrum of mono- and polycyclic aromatic compounds provided both separately and in complex mixtures.
- the bacterial strain PP lY is able to degrade aromatic compounds and the mixtures of aromatic compounds provided both in pure form or dissolved in hydrophobic or oil phases such as, but not limited to, gasoline, diesel oil, crude oil, paraffins, isoparaffins, and inert oils such as silicone oils.
- the bacterial strain of the present invention is a Gram negative bacterium with short rod shaped cells which can bring flagellums.
- Non-flagellated cells can be isolated cells or can be gathered in rows and bunches hold together by an extracellular matrix which can be stained by methylene blue.
- the strain PPlY forms spontaneously biofilm on solid hydrophobic surfaces, such as plastic surfaces, or on liquid hydrophobic surfaces as for example drops of silicone oils, paraffin and diesel oil.
- the strain PPlY secretes extracellular material - prevalently composed by proteins - which is able to stabilize water/oil emulsion and to increase the viscosity of the culture broths.
- the strain PPlY determines the fragmentation of the oil phase in drops with diameter lower than 1 mm. These drops are covered by a layer of bacterial biofilm.
- the bacterial strain of the present invention as been isolated by means of a standard enrichment procedure starting from seawater samples collected at the sea surface in different point inside the harbour of Pozzuoli (Naples) and is able to grow in a wide range of salt concentrations (0-40 g/1 NaCl).
- strain PPlY Due to its biochemical and microbiological features the strain PPlY is particularly well suited for the use in in-situ and ex-situ bioremediation strategies for the decontamination of waters and solid substrates such as but not limited to sand, mud, and sediments produced by dredging polluted by aromatic hydrocarbons bound to the substrate or dissolved in oil phases.
- the enrichment of the endogenous micro-flora of polluted waters and soils with the bacterial strain of the present invention could be used to reduce or eliminate aromatic hydrocarbons and to stimulate the degradative activity of the endogenous micro-flora by reducing the concentration of toxic aromatic compounds and emulsifying the oil phases thus increasing the accessibility of non-aromatic hydrocarbons to the endogenous micro-flora.
- the ability of the strain PP lY to grow in the absence of NaCl makes it suitable for the use both in seawater and brackish water.

- Isolation of the strain was performed by a standard enrichment procedure using crystals of naphthalene, phenanthrene and anthracene as growth substrates.
- the samples which showed the appearance of turbidity or yellow/brown colour were used to inoculate samples of saline solution at pH 7 containing naphthalene, phenanthrene and anthracene (20 mg/ml) separately or in mixtures.
- the sample which showed the appearance of turbidity or yellow/brown colour were spread on agar plates with phenanthrene microcrystals as the sole source of carbon and energy. On some plates the growth of yellow colonies surrounded by clear halos indicated the degradation of phenanthrene crystals as shown in figure 1.
- the strain of the present invention was purified by one of the yellow colonies by repeated plating on agar plates with phenanthrene microcrystals as the sole source of carbon and energy followed by 4 cycles of plating on rich medium (Luria Bertani agar) to ascertain the homogeneity of the strain.
- the strain PPlY (DSM 19530) was identified as a strain belonging to the Novosphingobium genus on the basis of the sequence of the 16S rDNA shown in figure 2.

- the maximal growth rate is observed at NaCl concentrations between 0.5% and 1.5%.
- the strain tolerates NaCl concentrations up to 4%. Growth is very slow at NaCl concentration above 5%.
- the strain PPlY is positive for ⁇ -galactosidase, urease, arginine-dihydrolase and citrate assimilation. In the same tests the strain US6-1 T is negative. Moreover the positive results for urease and arginine-dihydrolase differentiate the strain PPlY from the other known strains belonging to the Novosphingobium genus.
