Abstract
Mitigation of the environment from hazardous pesticides is clamant for all living things. The behavior of the fungicide Fuberidazole was investigated toward biodegradation. Biotransformation experiments were conducted by bacterial strains isolated from soils including, Xanthomonas citri (XC), and Pseudomonas syringae (PS), and fungal strains including, Aspergillus flavus (AF), Aspergillus niger (AN) and Penicillium chrysogenum (PC). Analysis and quantification of Fuberidazole degradation and its metabolites were performed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry and UV-visible spectrophotometry. Pseudomonas syringae and Penicillium chrysogenum displayed great bioremedial potential and degraded 91 and 86% of Fuberidazole after 35 days. Significant metabolites such as Benzimidazole 2-carboxylic acid, Benzimidazole, and 1-(1H-benzimidazole-2-yl)ethanone were produced in the current experiment. The increasing order of half-life for all strains was obtained as, PS (10.3) < PC (10.6) < AN (11) < AF (11.9) = XC (11.9) days. Experimental results demonstrated the capability of bacterial cells to efficiently utilize Fuberidazole as a nutrition source and the significance of favorable environmental conditions for its dissipation.
期刊介绍:
Mycobiology is an international journal devoted to the publication of fundamental and applied investigations on all aspects of mycology and their traditional allies. It is published quarterly and is the official publication of the Korean Society of Mycology. Mycobiology publishes reports of basic research on fungi and fungus-like organisms, including yeasts, filamentous fungi, lichen fungi, oomycetes, moulds, and mushroom. Topics also include molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, metabolism, developmental biology, environmental mycology, evolution, ecology, taxonomy and systematics, genetics/genomics, fungal pathogen and disease control, physiology, and industrial biotechnology using fungi.
