Article Title: Paraburkholderia Xenovorans Strain LB400 Significantly Decreased Volatilization of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) from Freshwater and Saline Sediments
doi: 10.1021/acsestwater.5c00423
Figure Lengend Snippet: Bioaugmentation with Paraburkholderia xenovorans LB400 significantly decreased airborne PCBs from both shaken (AVL_S) and nonshaken (AVL_NS) Altavista sediment microcosms. Panel A: Total airborne PCBs after 35–75 days (AVL_S; blue triangles) and 75 days (AVL_NS; green squares); Panel B: LC-PCBs; Panel C: PCB 4 (2,2’-dichlorobiphenyl); Panel D: PCB 19 (2,2’,6-trichlorobiphenyl). Data points are the average of 3 replicates and the error bars represent the standard deviation. PCB reactive transport model predictions for PCB 4 and PCB 19 concentrations are shown as solid lines (control; green for nonshaken, blue for shaken) or dashed lines (LB400 bioaugmentation; green for nonshaken, blue for shaken).
Article Snippet: Paraburkholderia xenovorans LB400 (ATCC #43038) , was grown in liquid K1 medium , (recipe in SI Section S1 ) using biphenyl crystals (0.76–1.5 g/L; TCI America, Portland, Oregon) as the sole carbon and energy source, at 30 °C in a shaking incubator set to 150 rpm.
