Planning
Dear Clayton:
I am enclosing the proposal prepared by Dr. Lee for support of his investigations of the rates of degradation of PCBs by microorganisms normally present in the aquatic . environment. We propose that support be provided for three years at a total cost of $154/931.
As indicated in the proposal, Dr. Lee will serve as
principal investigator, assisted as needed by Drs. Kneip and
O'Connor.
.
V7e appreciate the interest and confidence you have expressed in our program, and we look forward to receiving the contractual document from you. As I am not familiar with the form of the contracts you offer universities, ! should mention that university policy requires that Dr. Lee be given complete freedom as principal investigator, within the proposed scope of work, and that there be no restrictions on his publication privileges.
Very truly y&urs,

This research will seek to isolate and cultivate fungi

which are able to grow in the presence of polychlorinated

cultures have been established, the rate and mode of

r:-QDUCTION
This study is proposed to investigate the role of fungi
1 anaerobic bacteria in polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB),
p.uiation. Because of their low solubility in water, high
cific gravity, and high adsorbability, PCBs in aquatic
vironments tend to accumulate in reducing or anaerobic
liments of lakes, rivers, estuaries and coastal zones
.i,y>.
'
Evidence available to date indicates that microbial
gradation may be a mechanism by which PCBs are eliminated
' " the environment (1,5,7,8,10,11,13). PCB resistant or
livtding bacteria have been found to be ubiquitously distri-
' `'i in the natural environment (11).
Thus far, degradation studies have centered on aerobic
!'terinl activity, and are not applicable, directly, to PCBs
u!i<! m reducing or anaerobic sediments. Little information is
'"lablo on the role of fungi.

PCB-ARCH-
SPECIFIC AIMS 1. To isolate and cultivate fungi and anaerobic bacteria
from a variety of freshwater, estuarine and marine environments which are able to grow in the presence of PCBs (Aroclor 1016 and Aroclor 1254) and to investigate their ability to degrade the PCBs. Initially, this will be done with mixed cultures; studies will be done with pure cultures as they are purified. 2. To determine the rate and mode of PCB degradation by the fungi and by the anaerobic bacteria in vitro; first with PCBs serving as the sole carbon source, and second with PCBs amended with alternate carbon sources and alternate inorganic energy sources. 3. To determine the rate and mode of PCB degradation by the fungi and by the anaerobic bacteria in situ;) natural
F deposits (with or without added PCBs) will subsequently
be inoculated w7ith a specific fungal or anaerobic bacterial culture, and the change in PCB content examined after incubation over pre-determined time intervals. Fungi and anaerobic bacteria will be added to sterilized sediments and non-sterilized sediments in order to investi gate the ability of the inoculated organisms to degrade PCBs under as natural conditions as possible. METHODS 1. Procedures for Specific Aim 1: Sediments for the isola tion of fungi and anaerobic bacteria will be collected from
2
PCB-ARCH-EXT0376733
representative sites in freshwater, estuarine and marine
environments. These samples will be collected by the principal
investigator or by requests of colleagues at other institutions.
Physical and "chemical aspects of the environment at the time
of sampling {e.g., salinity, depth, pH, Eh, water temperature)
will be recorded when possible. Immediately upon collection,
the sediment will be transferred to duplicate sets of glass
bottles which will be almost filled with filtered water and
sealed with serum caps. One set will be gassed with nitrogen
to maintain or to establish reducing conditions necessary
for anaerobes; the other will be maintained aerobic for "
fungal isolation. Both sets of samples will be used for
subsequent isolation.of PCB degraders by enrichment culture.
Enrichment cultures for anaerobic bacteria will be set
up by adding 1-2 g of sediment to a 250 m flask containing
100 mfi, of an organic medium (thioglycollate medium) made
-
with distilled water or water of appropriate salinity and pH
for estuarine and marine samples. Techniques for anaerobic - '
cultures as described by Bryant (2) will be strictly followed.
Cultures will be incubated for three days to two weeks at 26C; intermittently, culture flasks will be shaken by hand.
Isolation will be carried out in a second flask which contains
100 mS, of a mineral salt solution adjusted to the desired
salinity: (N1I4) 9S04, 1 g; KII2P04, 0.2 g; K2HP04, 1.6 g;
MgS04 -7I!20, 0.2 g; NaCl, 01. g; FeS04*7H20, 0.01 g; CaCl2*2H20,
0.02 g (pH 7.5) containing 0.05% of the appropriate PCB.
Following standard anaerobic techniques, 1 mt of the enrich-
2. Procedures for Specific Aim 2; Once the respective microbial systems capable of growth on PCBs are obtained, the kinetics of PCB degradation will be followed by analyzing the PCBs in the growth medium at different time intervals. The cells will be harvested by centrifugation and washed twice with 0.5 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). The washed cells will be injected into culture tubes containing the mineral salts medium a,nd PCB. The procedures employed will be similar to those described by Halvorson et al. (6), who used resting suspensions of bacteria harvested from a sewage lagoon to examine the degradation of mixtures of pesticides. Comparisons will be made of gas chromatograms of PCBs before and after incubation with test organisms and with non-inoculated PCB controls over the pre-determined time interval. Metabolites and residual PCBs will be characterized by the use of column and thin-layer chromatographic techniques of Stalling and Huckins (12), and Furukawa and Matsumura (5). 3. Procedures for Specific Aim 3.; In situ studies will be conducted with natural sediments whose PCB content will have been determined previously. Sediments will be autoclaved to kill indigenous microbial flora.. Depending on the test organ isms to be used in the test (fungi or anaerobic bacteria), the test conditions of the sediment will either be made anaerobic or left aerobic. The specific organism for the PCB degrada tion experiments will be inoculated into the sediments, and the rest of the experiment will be run as in Procedure for Specific Aim 2 to determine FCB degradation. A second variation of the
in situ study involves the inoculation of the test isolates
into non-sterilized sediment of known PCB content along with
all of its indigenous flora and fauna; this is designee} to
test the ability of the isolated PCB degraders to function
and compete with other organisms under natural conditions.
PCB degradation will be assessed as per Procedure for Specific
Aim 2.
.
4. Thd research tasks will be performed in the following
sequence, assuming a beginning date of June 1, 1979: .
June 1/ 1979 - May 31, 1980: Specific Aim 1. June 1/ 1980 - May 31, 1981: Specific Aim 2. June 1, 1981 - May 31, 1982: Specific Aim 3.
