Fourteen Streptomyces strains known to degrade lignocellulose were screened for their ability to decolorize three anthron-type dyes: Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR), blue poly(vinylamine) sulfonate – anthraquinone dye (Poly B-411), and red poly(vinylamine) sulfonate – anthrapyridone dye (Poly R-478). The relationships between efficiency of dye decolorization and capacity to attack lignocellulose were examined. Good correlation was found between lignocellulose weight losses observed during previous solid-state fermentation assays and the ability to decolorize RBBR and Poly B-411. A poor correlation was observed between Poly R-478 decolorizing activity and lignocellulose-degrading ability. The presence of corn stover lignocellulose in the culture broth enhanced decolorization of the dye by all but one of the strains. The enhancement was thought to involve the increased production of extracellular peroxidases by cultures growing on lignocellulose. The results on oxidation of the three dyes by a commercial horseradish peroxidase indicate that RBBR and Poly B-411 are suitable substrates for analyzing production of peroxidases by Streptomyces spp., while no decolorization of Poly R-478 was observed under the conditions used. However, Poly R-478 decolorizing activity of the Streptomyces may reflect the activity of other enzymes involved in the complex process of lignocellulose degradation. Key words: Streptomyces, lignocellulose, degradation, dye, decolorization.

The problem of environmental pollution day by day becomes more worrisome, primarily due to the large amounts of wastewater contaminated with various harmful organic compounds, discharged into the environment untreated or partially clean. Feasibility of use of horseradish peroxidase (Amoracia rusticana) in the synthetic dyes decolorization was approved by many researchers. Among a number of supports used for the immobilization, it was found that natural clay, kaolin has excellent features which are a precondition for obtaining biocatalysts with the excellent performances. For this reason, a horseradish peroxidase was immobilized onto kaolin using glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. Obtained biocatalyst was applied in the decolorization of anthraquinone dye C. I. Acid Violet 109. Under determined optimal conditions (pH 4.0, hydrogen peroxide concentration 0.6 mM, dye concentration 30 mg L-1, temperature 24?C) around 76 % of dye decolorization was achieved. Reusability study showed that resulting biocatalyst was possible to apply four times in the desired reaction with relatively high decolorization percentage.

Eighteen strains of fungi in the genus Fusarium, including varieties of F. episphaeria, F. lateritium, F. moniliforme, F. nivale, F. oxysporum, F. rigidiusculum, F. roseum, F. solani, and F. tricinctum, slowly degraded lignocelluloses from blue spruce (Picea pungens) and wheat (Triticum aestivum). When grown with [lignin-14C]lignocellulose from blue spruce, 15 of the Fusarium strains converted 2.2 to 4.3% of the [14C]lignin in 60 days to 14CO2 and 3.9 to 8.4% to labeled water-soluble products. When grown with unlabeled lignocellulose from wheat straw, the strains caused total weight losses in 60 days of 7 to 25%, acid-insoluble (Klason) lignin losses of 2 to 17%, and carbohydrate losses of 3 to 33%. Crude protein contents of degraded wheat-straw lignocellulose samples were 3.2 to 5.1%. Among the aromatic degradation products from wheat-straw lignocellulose degraded by different strains, as shown by gas chromatography, were p-coumaric acid, vanillic acid, vanillin, syringaldehyde, and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde.

Biomass Decomposition

Lignocelluloses are comprised of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignins, which constitute plant biomass. Since peroxidases can degrade lignins, the authors examined peroxidase Tfu-1649, which is secreted from the thermophilic actinomycetes, Thermobifida fusca BCRC 19214. After cultivating for 48 h, the culture broth accumulated 43.66 U/mL of peroxidase activity. The treatment of four types of lignocellulolytic byproducts, i.e., bagasse, corncob, pin sawdust, and Zizania latifolia Turcz husk, with Tfu-1649 alone increased the total phenolic compounds, with limited reducing sugars, but treatment with xylanase, Tfu-11, and peroxidase Tfu-1649 showed synergistic effects. Hence, the co-operative degradation of lignocelluloses by both peroxidase and xylanase could contribute to biomass decomposition and further applications in the agricultural and environmental industries.

In Iran, wheat straw which is produced in huge amounts has been used in animal feed. However, the use of straw as animal feed is limited by its low nutritional value and its low nitrogen content. Various chemical delignification methods to improve the digestibility of straw have extensively investigated (Sundstol and Owen, 1984). Biological methods of treating straw using fungi such as white-rot-fungi have also been reported (Zadrazil, 1984). The solid state fermentation (SSF) of wheat straw with white-rot fungi is a complex process which is influenced by factors such as the species of fungus, substrate, temperature and moisture (Zadrazil, 1984). The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of pre-treating the straw with urea and incubation with two species of Pleurotus fungi on the chemical composition and digestibility of wheat straw.

Pretreated Wheat Straw

Eleven actinomycetes, isolated from the gut of worker termites (Macrotermes, Armitermes, Microcerotermes, Odontotermes), were identified as Streptomyces chromofuscus, S. chromogenus, S. diastaticus, and S. rochei. Their ability to grow on natural lignocellulosic substrates was tested in solid state fermentation experiments using wheat straw (C/N = 49.8) as a sole carbon source. Weight loss was 4.7–20.9% of the initial substrate, after 5 weeks at 30 °C; lignin and cellulose content decreased 2.0–16.1 and 3.5–32.9%, respectively. When the 11 Streptomyces were grown on wheat straw pretreated with (NH4)HCO3 (C/N = 28.2), weight loss was 9.3–29.9% of the initial substrate, indicating an overall enhancement of lignocellulose degradation. Weight, lignin, and cellulose losses were enhanced when S. chromofuscus (strain A2 and A11) and S. rochei A4 were grown on pretreated wheat straw instead of the untreated substrate. With S. rochei A10 the weight loss and lignin degradation were enhanced, while cellulolysis was slightly depressed. Weight loss and cellulose degradation were both enhanced when the remaining strains were grown on pretreated wheat straw. In this case, lignin degradation was depressed (S. chromofuscus A6 and A8, S. diastaticus A12, S. rochei A14) or remained essentially the same (S. diastaticus A3 and S. chromogenus A7).
