Production and Characterization of a Novel Biosurfactant Molecule from Bacillus safensis YKS2 and Assessment of Its Efficiencies in Wastewater Treatment by a Directed Metagenomic Approach

Dharman Kalaimurugan et al.

Summary: This study aimed to extract a novel biosurfactant molecule from Bacillus safensis YKS2, which is a biodegradation accelerator that improves bioavailability and facilitates degradation by microorganisms. An efficient biosurfactant-producing strain, Bacillus safensis YKS2, was selected from four oil-degrading strains isolated from a soil sample using various tests. The bacteria culture conditions were optimized, and the biosurfactant was characterized using different analysis techniques. The wastewater treatment efficiency was high, and metagenomics analysis showed a decrease in microbial load. The results suggest that B. safensis YKS2 has potential benefits in wastewater remediation.

Ecological Role of Bacteria Involved in the Biogeochemical Cycles of Mangroves Based on Functional Genes Detected through GeoChip 5.0

Shanshan Meng et al.

Summary: This study analyzed and compared the ecological distributions and potential roles of bacteria in typical mangroves. The bacterial community compositions were largely similar in the studied mangroves, and were significantly correlated with phosphorus levels. Functional gene analysis indicated that carbon degradation is the most active process in mangroves. Additionally, several high-abundance bacterial populations were found to synergistically mediate key biogeochemical cycles in the mangroves.
