An Effect of Salt Concentration and Inoculum Size on Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Utilization by Two Sphingomonas Strains

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Due to its widespread use and water solubility, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) has the potential to find its way into various water or soil ecosystems. Despite the fact that many bacterial species with the capacity of utilizing PVA have been found and described, the influences of some environmental factors on their capabilities to biodegrade PVA have not been adequately studied. Therefore, study was made of the effects of two environmental factors on PVA degradation exhibited by two Sphingomonas strains. Both strains originated from common wastewater treatment plants, and proved to be considerably sensitive to increased inorganic salt concentrations; in brief, 13.3 mmol/l either of phosphate or chloride ions significantly delayed the degradation process or inhibited it entirely. In contrast to such halosensitivity, both strains were able to rapidly utilize PVA under suitable conditions, even when low inoculum sizes were applied. Initial cell densities, ranging from 100 to 107 cells/ml, were used in two series of degradation trials and PVA degradation occurred in all cases; merely delays extending over several days in the degradation process were noted when inoculum sizes of 100–103 cells/ml were applied.
