Isolates analysis Aerobic/Anaerobic growth curves • Problems: • Preliminary data (not shown) seem to suggest that the isolates are not able to grow on pure brine. • Future: • To try the same experiment in aerobic and anaerobic condition using a salt gradient from SeaWater to pure Brine • To try different substrates

Isolates analysis Methabolic analysis Why: • The study of the degradation of aromatic compounds has a very applicative meaning in order to evaluate the possible employ in bioremediation • The major part of dangerous or difficoult to remove compounds are aromatics • A great number of polluted areas is associated with hypersaline environment

Isolates analysis Methabolic analysis • Future: • To repeat the experiments in salinity gradient • To check and charachterize the genes coding for the enzymes involved in the HC pathways by PCR and sequencing • To purify and charachterize the obtained enzymes
Isolates analysis Conclusions • Phylogenetical Analysis • The cultivatable components of bacterial communities from DHABs are not corresponding at all with the active components within the basins (Allochthnous/contaminant bacteria?) • REP Fingerprinting • Aerobic/Anaerobic growth curves • Methabolic analysis (Catechol, Gentisate, Protocatechuic acid) • Conclusions
Isolates analysis Conclusions • Phylogenetical Analysis • REP Fingerprinting • Isolates with identical 16S rDNA sequences show different REP fingerprint. • The REP analysis shows an higher and variegate diversity in respect to the 16S rDNA sequence analysis that henances the low efficiency of 16S rDNA analysis. • Aerobic/Anaerobic growth curves • Methabolic analysis (Catechol, Gentisate, Protocatechuic acid) • Conclusions
Isolates analysis Conclusions • Phylogenetical Analysis • REP Fingerprinting • Aerobic/Anaerobic growth curves • Every isolate shows peculiar growth curves and is able to grow both in aerobic and anaerobic conditions • Each isolate grows faster in aerobic than in anaerobic conditions but in general the maximum density for both conditions is comparable • The clustering of the isolates based on the obtained growth curves seems to correspond to the REP-16S rDNA grouping • Methabolic analysis (Catechol, Gentisate, Protocatechuic acid) • Conclusions
Isolates analysis Conclusions • Phylogenetical Analysis • REP Fingerprinting • Aerobic/Anaerobic growth curves • Methabolic analysis (Catechol, Gentisate, Protocatechuic acid) • Some isolates are able to degrade different aromatic compounds at the marine salt conditions. The question on the range of salinity at which this capability is maintained is still opened. • Further analyses on the aromatic compound spectra are planned (included the halogenated compounds) as well as the molecular study of the bacterial enzymes involved in the HC pathways. • Conclusions
