Application of response surface methodology for rapid chrysene biodegradation by newly isolated marine-derived fungus Cochliobolus lunatus strain CHR4D

Abstract: For the first time, Cochliobolus lunatus strain CHR4D, a marine-derived ascomycete fungus isolated from historically contaminated crude oil polluted shoreline of Alang-Sosiya ship-breaking yard, at Bhavnagar coast, Gujarat has been reported showing the rapid and enhanced biodegradation of chrysene, a four ringed high molecular weight (HMW) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH). Mineral Salt Broth (MSB) components such as ammonium tartrate and glucose along with chrysene, pH and trace metal solution have been s… Show more

“…Several fungal genera Cochilobolus , Sclerotina , Neosartoria , Mycosphaerella , Trichosporon , Penicillium , Auricularia and Teratosphaeria were only found in oil contaminated seawater, of which Cochilobolus , Neosartoria , Penicillium and Trichosporon have been previously reported for hydrocarbon degradation potential 25,5255 . Interestingly, in the oiled seawater, Candida and Rhodotorula reduced in abundance by 33 to 1% and 0.7 to null respectively, even though these genera are reported to be hydrocarbon degraders from terrestrial environment 53 . Non-oiled sediment represented a total of 19 fungal species from the metagenomic analysis.…”

“…In the instance of bioremediation, C. lunatus was found to biodegrade crude oil, resulting in a 1.5 percent weight loss (of the crude) in one week, 2.1 percent weight loss in two weeks, and 4.7 percent weight loss in three weeks [ 100 , 200 ]. Similarly, the fungus C. lunatus strain CHR4D was isolated from crude oil-polluted shorelines in India, and it was determined that chrysene (C 18 H 12 ), a four-ringed high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, was degraded swiftly and effectively [ 201 ]. Surprisingly, after only four days, 93.10 percent of the chrysene was eliminated [ 201 ].…”
