Abstract The influence of 50 and 100 μ m Ni on membrane integrity, hydrogen peroxide content, lipid peroxidation as well total fatty acid composition was studied in shoots roots wheat seedlings. In both organs, treatment with led to significant increase electrolyte leakage reflecting the metal‐induced enhancement permeability. shoots, it accompanied by peroxidation. Accumulation peroxide, more pronounced also found Ni‐treated wheat. Exposure seedlings altered composition, leading decrease...
A laccase-producing ascomycete fungus was isolated from soil collected around the premises of a textile dye factory and identified as Nectriella pironii. Efficient laccase production achieved via synergistic action 1 mM copper sulfate ferulic acid. Extracts rapeseed oil cake, grass hay, leaf litter in pocket urban park were used for enzyme production. The highest activity (3,330 U/L) observed culture grown on extract. This is first report biosynthesis by N. also study utilization naturally...
To investigate the response of tributyltin-degrading fungal strain Cunninghamella elegans to organotin, a comparative lipidomics strategy was employed using an LC/MS-MS technique. A total 49 lipid species were identified. Individual phospholipids then quantified multiple reaction monitoring method. Tributyltin (TBT) caused decline in amounts many molecular phosphatidylethanolamine or phosphatidylserine and increase levels phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol phosphatidylcholine. In...
In this work we compared the effect of five heavy metals: Zn, Pb, Cd, Ni and Cu on phospholipid composition ubiquitous soil fungus Paecilomyces marquandii, originating from a strongly metal polluted area characterized by high tolerance to these elements. caused an increase in phosphatidylcholine (PC). Only Pb decreased PC content, which was accompanied significant rise phosphatidic acids (PA) level, probably due activation phospholipase D hydrolyzes PA. This could result membrane fluidity...
To identify the enzymes potentially useful for decolorization of azo dyes, secretome ascomycetous fungus Myrothecium roridum IM6482 was studied by using a bottom-up proteomic approach. Among identified proteins, most promising dye removal laccase, which decolorized respectively, 66, 91, 79, and 80% Acid Blue 113 (AB 113), Red 27 (AR 27), Direct 14 (DB 14), Orange 7 (AO 7). The degradation dyes enhanced at wide range pH from 4 to 8. addition redox mediators allowed eliminating AB in...
Abstract Textile industry effluents and landfill leachate contain chemicals such as dyes, heavy metals aromatic amines characterized by their mutagenicity, cytotoxicity carcinogenicity. The aim of the present study was investigation ascomycete fungus N. pironii isolated from urban postindustrial textile green space for its ability to grow retain metabolic activity in presence dye waste. Research focused mainly on amines, which had been detected via HPLC–MS/MS analysis. Presence all tested...
