Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradation of phenol by a filamentous fungi isolated from industrial effluents—identification and degradation potential
TL;DR: The prospect after the application of filamentous fungal strains in protecting the environment from phenol pollution is demonstrated, suggesting that catechol was oxidized by the ortho type of ring fission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological and physicochemical properties of biosurfactants produced by Lactobacillus jensenii P 6A and Lactobacillus gasseri P 65
I. M. C. Morais,A. L. Cordeiro,G. S. Teixeira,V. S. Domingues,Regina M. D. Nardi,Andrea de Souza Monteiro,R. J. Alves,Ezequias P. Siqueira,Vera Lúcia dos Santos +8 more
TL;DR: The antimicrobial properties and stability of these biomolecules indicate their potential use as alternative antimicrobial agents in the medical field for applications against pathogens that are responsible for infections in the gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts and the skin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenol degradation by Aureobasidium pullulans FE13 isolated from industrial effluents.
TL;DR: The results suggest that inoculants based on immobilized cells of A. pullulans FE13 has potential application in the biodegradation of phenol and possibly in the degradation of other related aromatic compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-Term Rock Phosphate Fertilization Impacts the Microbial Communities of Maize Rhizosphere.
U. C. Silva,Julliane Dutra Medeiros,Laura Rabelo Leite,Daniel Kumazawa Morais,Daniel Kumazawa Morais,Sara Cuadros-Orellana,Sara Cuadros-Orellana,Christiane Abreu de Oliveira,Ubiraci Gomes de Paula Lana,Eliane Aparecida Gomes,Vera Lúcia dos Santos +10 more
TL;DR: Compared long-term effects of TSP and RP fertilization on the structure of maize rhizosphere microbial community using next generation sequencing, the results suggest changes of the microbial community composition associated to the type of phosphate fertilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenol degradation by yeasts isolated from industrial effluents
TL;DR: Yeast strains of the genera Aureobasidium, Rhodotorula and Trichosporon were isolated from stainless steel effluents and tested for their ability to utilize phenol as the sole carbon source, suggesting that catechol was oxidized by the ortho type of ring fission.
