Mycelial and Pigmentation studies of Dibenzothiophene desulfurizing Streptomyces species isolated from oil contaminated sites
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 5
Abstract
The present work is the part of study on Dibenzothiophene (DBT) desulfurizing actinobacteria viz., Streptomyces sp. VUR PPR 101 and Streptomyces sp. VUR PPR 102 isolated from oil contaminated sites of mechanical workshops in Karimnagar area of Andhra Pradesh. Both the species were grown on ten different media including ISP and other media to observe the growth, colour of aerial and substrate mycelia, and of the soluble pigment. The time taken for the onset of sporulation on each medium was also recorded. After incubation, both the species had shown some colour variations in aerial mycelia, substrate mycelia and soluble pigments. Extent of growth was also varied. The time taken for the onset of sporulation slightly varied among different media but not between the bacteria with respect to a particular medium.
