Rumen ciliates still have mysterious secrets and influences in ruminants. This study investigated the effect of transfaunation of pure and mixed cultures of rumen ciliates on physical clinical examination, selected serum parameters and milk profile in defaunated lactating dairy goats. A number of 8 Baladi native breed goats were randomly classified into two groups each one containing 4 goats. Pure culture group was transfaunated with 6 ml of pure culture of Holotricha spp., while mixed culture group was transfaunated with 6 ml of mixed culture of 81.85% Holotricha and 18.15% Ophryoscolex spp. once weekly for three consecutive weeks, after defaunation of both groups using 30 ml of 8% SLS for two consecutive days. Serum and milk samples were collected weekly for three successive weeks to study effect of type of ciliate culture, duration of transfaunation and their interaction. Results revealed that transfaunation of pure and mixed cultures of rumen ciliates had no effect on physical examination with minimal non-significant improvement of calcium, inorganic phosphorous, total protein and globulin in serum of defaunated goats. Transfaunation of pure or mixed cultures of rumen ciliates within three weeks could not improve significantly decreased milk fat % of defaunated goats without any effect on other measured milk profile parameters. It is concluded that further investigations on transfaunation without prior defaunation should be performed using different pure and mixed cultures of rumen ciliates for therapeutic and productive purposes.

The biodegradation of phenol and chlorophenols by immobilized pure-culture cells was conducted by a series of batch reactors. The microorganisms used in this study were Pseudomonas putida, Psuedomonas testosteroni, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Agrobacterium radiobacter. All four species showed the ortho-cleavage pathway to metabolize chlorophenols. Among the four species, P. testosteroni, P. putida, and P. aeruginosa could effectively remove phenol at 200 mg/l. P. testosteroni could effectively remove 2-chlorophenol at 10mg/l. However, the other three species, P. putida, P. aeruginosa, and A. radiobacter, could not effectively remove 2-chlorophenol. Although 3-chlorophenol is a recalcitrant compound, P. testosteroni also could rapidly metabolize 3-chlorophenol at 10 mg/l. The removal of 4-chlorophenol at 10 mg/l by P. testosteroni reached 98% within one day. P. aeruginosa and A. radiobacter also could metabolize 4-chlorophenol after 2 and 7 days of lag period, respectively.

Stable, pure-culture, frozen concentrates of Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Lactobacillus leichmannii were developed for use in the fermentation of soda cracker sponge and dough. Sponge fermentation time was reduced from the conventional 18 h to 4 h. Dough fermentation time was also reduced from 4 h to 2 h. The conventional 24-h soda cracker process could be reduced to 8 h by the use of pure-culture technology.

Biofilm Matrix

To study the composition of a biofilm a previous extraction method is required to separate cells from the matrix. There are several methods reported in the literature; however they are not efficient or promote leakage of intracellular material. In this work several extraction methods were assayed in mixed culture and pure culture biofilms and their efficiency was evaluated by the amount of organic carbon, proteins and intracellular material extracted. The results showed that the extraction with glutaraldehyde 3% (w/v) was the most suitable method, extracting great amounts of organic carbon without promoting cell lysis or permeabilization. Glutaraldehyde is a bifunctional reagent that binds to cell walls avoiding their permeabilization and the biofilm matrix is solubilized in the solution.
