Abstract

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) as well as crude oil are widespread environmental pollutants. The contamination of air, soil, freshwater (surface water and groundwater), and marine environments by PAHs as well as crude oil has been reported. Of concern to public health is the fact that many PAHs or their metabolites are mutagenic, carcinogenic, or both. North Java coastal area such as Jakarta Bay is the polluted marine area in Indonesia as a result from anthropogenic wastes and the oil spill. Although evaporation and photo-oxidation play an important role in oil detoxification, ultimate and complete degradation is accomplished mainly by marine micro flora, and being dominant in this function. Certain bacteria are well-known could consume and degrade the PAHs as well as crude oil. Therefore investigating the potential PAH and oil degrading marine bacteria is important. In this study, we collected sample from oil polluted area in Marina Port Ancol, Jakarta Bay and isolated four PAH substrates and Arabian crude oil degrading marine bacteria using enrichment method and direct isolation method. As result, 223 strains could degrade PAHs, among these strains, 94 strains could degrade phenanthrene, 23 strains degrade fluoranthene, 92 strains could degrade dibenzotiophen, 14 strains could degrade phenotiazin and 106 isolates degrade crude oil.Key words: polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, crude oil, degrading bacteria, bioremediation.

Abstract

Bt05 is marine bacterium which was isolated from the Jakarta Bay, Indonesia. The aim of this study was to characterize PAHs-degrading property, molecular identification by partial analysis of 16S rRNA gene and to partially analyze dioxygenase gene of Bt05 isolate. Our further study on this isolate revealed that it could degrade three PAHs (phenanthrene, dibenzothiophene, fluorene) between 60%–90% within 11 days at 100 ppm level. This finding indicated the potential of the isolate for bioremediation of PAHs. The isolate was identified as Alteromonas alvinellae by phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence. Sequence analysis of the PCR product of PAH dioxygenase genes amplified using two primer set (iiDA and ppAH) of the isolate were identified 97% as naphthalene dioxygenase gene (phaAc) and 58% as 1,2-dioxygenase.

Abstract

Isolation and screening have been undertaken on oil-degrading microbes from Indonesian marine environments. During screening process it has been found many bacterial isolates capable of degrading crude oil. Hence, study has been focused on the biodiversity of biosurfactant-producing bacterial species in Indonesian marine environment and its function for remedial the pollutant in marine and soil areas. A total of 103 out of 463 isolates showed positive surfactant-degrading properties. By means of partial 16S rRNA gene analyses, it has been found that the majority of taxa are related to Alcanivorax, Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Bortetela, Brucella, Acenitobacter, Staphia, Lysobacter, and Talasosophira. Biosurfactant properties assay showed that they were capable of lowering the surface- and interfacial water tension from 74 mN/m to 40-65 mN/m and from 24 mN/m to 6-10 mN/m, respectively. In addition, most of the surfactants were capable of emulsifying hydrocarbon (crude oil) of 0.01 to 0.15 units, comparable to 0.08 units of synthetic surfactant (20% Tween). Further observation showed that the majority of the surfactants were able to degrade a long chain of alkane, but not branched alkane, with a recovering rate of 20-80%. The application of the surfactant towards oil polluted model beach was done in laboratory scale and showing the surfactant obtained from microbial broth cultures capable for recovering the oil pollutant significantly, compared to the control (without addition microbial broth).
