| Popis: | In this study we examined the effect of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) on biomass production of a PCB-degrading Pseudomonas stutzeri, and on the fatty acid profile of its major membrane lipids. Growth based on biomass weight was stimulated when PCBs were added at the time of inoculation, but PCB addition three days after inoculation led to a significant decrease in biomass. Simultaneous addition of PCBs plus biphenyl or PCBs plus carvone negatively affected P. stutzeri biomass (addition of biphenyl or carvone at the time of inoculation and PCBs to three-day-old culture). In the presence of PCBs alone the amount of the prevalent fatty acids C16:0 and C17-cyclopropyl fatty acid (C17-CP) of P. stutzeri in total and neutral lipids was significantly reduced. When PCBs were added together with carvone (carvone at the time of inoculation and PCBs after three days) a significant reduction of these fatty acids was obtained, but, in addition, oleic, cis-vaccenic, and cyclononadecanic (C19-CP) acids were increased. When PCBs were combined to biphenyl the prevalent fatty acids were reduced and oleic, cis-vaccenic, and cyclononadecanic acids were increased in total and neutral lipids. Addition of 3-chlorobenzoic acid led to a significant growth inhibition and to the production of oleic and cis-vaccenic acids in the membrane fraction phosphatidylcholine. |
