ABSTRACT
Bisphenol A (BPA) has been widely used in the manufacture of polymeric materials. BPA is regarded as an endocrine disrupting chemical, posing a great threat to the public health. In this study, a bacterial strain LM-1, capable of utilizing BPA as the sole carbon and energy source under aerobic conditions, was originally isolated from an activated sludge sample. The isolate was identified as Pseudomonas sp. based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Strain LM-1 was able to completely degrade 25-100 mg/L BPA within 14-24 h, and it also exhibited high capacity for BPA degradation at a range of pH (6.0-8.0). (NH4)2SO4 and NH4NO3 were the suitable nitrogen sources for its growth and BPA biodegradation, and the BPA degradation could be accelerated when exogenous carbon sources were introduced as the co-substrates. Metal ions such as Zn2+, Cu2+, and Ni2+ could considerably suppress the growth of strain LM-1 and BPA degradation. According to the analysis of liquid chromatography coupled to Q-Exactive high resolution mass spectrometry, hydroquinone, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and p-hydroxybenzoate were the predominate metabolites in the BPA biodegradation and the degradation pathways were proposed. This study is important for assessment of the fate of BPA in engineered and natural systems and possibly for designing bioremediation strategies.
