“…Umanu and Owoseni (2013) and Ogbonna (2014) reported that various bacteria strains capable of hydrocarbon degradation were isolated from soil and abattoir effluent and these include Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus spp, Alcaligenes faecalis, and serratia spp, while the fungi isolated were Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum and Fusarium sp. The hydrocarbon-utilizing microorganisms may have enhanced the removal of the toxic hydrocarbons in the contaminated soil (Umanu and Owoseni 2013;Kumar et al 2014) while the organic matter and essential nutrients may have replenished the soil nutrient status. The promotive effect of biofertilizer was previously reported (Al-Abdallah et al 2017;Zarei et al 2017).…”

Purpose The pollution of agricultural land by crude oil is a wide spread phenomenon in petroleum producing countries of the world. Therefore, there is the need to find effective and eco-friendly means of mitigating the toxic effect of crude oil on crop plants. Methods Green house experiment was conducted with cowpea seeds planted in polybags containing crude oil contaminated soil and similar concentrations treated with known amount of abattoir wastewater. The effect of abattoir wastewater (AWW) treatment of the crude oil contaminated soil on the metabolic and antioxidant properties of the leaves of cowpea seedlings was investigated. The concentrations of total sugar, total protein, total amino acid and β-carotene, chlorophyll, starch metabolizing enzymes as well as oxidative stress markers, lipid peroxidation, catalase, xanthine oxidase, aldehyde oxidase and superoxide dismutase were determined using standard methods. Results Treatment of the crude oil contaminated soil with AWW resulted in decreases in total sugar, total protein and total amino acid as well as increase in the activities of both α-amylase and starch phosphorylase and total chlorophyll and β-carotene levels compared with those in crude oil alone treated groups. Treatment of the crude oil contaminated soil with AWW also significantly decreased lipid peroxidation and Cu/ZnSOD, but increased MnSOD, catalase, xanthine oxidase and aldehyde oxidase activities. Conclusion These observations suggest that abattoir wastewater has the ability to remediate the adverse effects of crude oil polluted soil on cowpea seedlings. Therefore, abattoir wastewater should be harnessed and used in treating crude oil polluted farmland so as to reduce its toxicity on crop plants.

“…Some strains of P. fluorescens isolated from petroleum hydrocarbon‐contaminated soil have shown the ability to utilize a diverse range of hydrocarbon sources (Barathi & Vasudevan, ). Pseudomonas fluorescens strains have been recommended for bioremediation of environments contaminated with diesel fuel (Kumar et al., ). Mellor, Bentley, and Dykes () demonstrated that P. fluorescens has the ability to degrade fat associated with chicken skin.…”

Microbial spoilage of meat during chilled aerobic storage causes significant financial losses to the industry. Even with modern day preservation techniques, spoilage remains an unsolved problem. Spoilage of meat is a complex process that involves the activity of endogenous enzymes and microorganisms. Psychrotrophic Pseudomonas species are the key microorganisms that cause spoilage in aerobically stored chilled meat. Spoilage pseudomonads are highly robust and able to withstand stressful environmental conditions that would otherwise inhibit the growth of other spoilage organisms. In order to implement efficient control measures, and to minimize spoilage, a thorough understanding of the characteristics of spoilage pseudomonads is essential. This review focuses on the spoilage process and the key metabolic attributes of the main psychrotrophic spoilage Pseudomonas species to explain their predominance on meat over other psychrotrophic bacteria. This review also highlights less studied, but important, characteristics of psychrotrophic pseudomonads such as biofilm formation and quorum sensing in the context of meat spoilage. The importance of the use of model systems that are closely applicable to the food industry is also discussed in detail.

“…Petroleum contains numerous components including alkanes, aromatics, resins and asphaltenes. Action of some Pseudomonas cultures was shown to degrade constituents of crude oil, automobile oil effluent, and diesel fuel [153][154][155]. Moreover, pseudomonads can remove heavy metals released into the environment with industrial and domestic wastewaters.…”

Pseudomonas is a widespread bacterial genus embracing a vast number of species. Various genosystematic methods are used to identify Pseudomonas and differentiate these bacteria from species of the same genus and species of other genera. Ability to degrade and produce a whole spectrum of compounds makes these species perspective in industrial applications. It also makes possible to use various media, including wastes, for cultivation of Pseudomonas. Pseudomonads may be applied in bioremediation, production of polymers and low-molecular-weight compounds, biocontrol. Recent studies open up new frontiers for further use of Pseudomonas in various areas.
