Paint
• Liquid or mastic composition that converts to a solid film, when applied to a substrate
Paint
• Used to protect, to color, to provide texture and for the decoration
Uses
• Paint was made and used more than 35000 years ago
History
• Oil Based Paints• Water Based Paints
Types
3
Paints composition
• Allows the paint to be of correct consistency for application
Solvent
• Basic solid film former that remains after the solvent has been evaporated
Binder
• Gives paint its most important properties of colour
Pigment
• To improve production and storage properties
Additives
4
Environmental pollution
• Environmental pollution by oil-paints
effluents is of greater concern
nowadays due to its widespread
applications.
• Improperly used paint, accidental
spills, leakage & breakage can poison
people and animals in an environment.
• Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) is working with state, local, and
tribal governments to reduce toxic
releases of 187 pollutants to the
environment and most of them are
present in paints

Biodegradation and bioremediation
• Biodegradation: A process by which
microbial organisms transform or alter the
structure of chemicals introduced into the
environment
• Bioremediation: Microorganisms or their
enzymes to return the environment altered
by contaminants to its original condition
• Detoxification and Mineralization
• Safe
• Cheap
• Environmental friendly and
• Effective means of hazardous waste
removal

• The molecular identification of the bacterial isolates was carried out by 16S
rRNA sequence homology.
• The bacterial isolates as pure glycerol stocks were sent for commercial
amplification and sequencing of 16S rRNA at Macrogen Inc., Seol, Korea.
• The amplified nucleotide sequences were obtained and interpreted for
similarity index or sequence homology at NCBI GenBank database using
Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) against available reference
nucleotide library.
• The evolutionary distances were computed by neigbour-joining (NJ) and
maximum-composite likelihood (MCL) methods.
• The phylogenetic trees were re-constructed with closely related bacteria
using Molecular Evolutionary Genetic Analysis (MEGA) version 6.0.

washed three times in normal
saline
Finally it was added into MSM
broth, that then serve as inocula

Analysis of oil-paint biodegradation
• For analysis, the samples were drawn from each shake flask experiment afterevery 2nd day of incubation starting from zero day.
• Growth ODs were regularly monitored using spectrophotometer at 600 nm.
Samples Collection & Growth estimation
• Samples were analyzed using spectrophotometer (UV-Vis Scanning) at 285nm and FTIR spectrometry for biodegradation.

Estimation of oil-paint biodegradation using
UV-Vis spectrophotometer
Standard curve preparation
Paint standard at different conc. (i.e. 100, 200, 300,
and 400 ppm) was dissolved in petroleum ether and
its absorbance was recorded at 285 nm against a
blank of petroleum ether by using UV-VIS
spectrophotometer.
The absorbance was then plotted against conc. in a
graph in MS-Excel and a linear regression value (R2)
was calculated. An R2 value of 0.998 corresponds to
linear correlation between conc. vs absorbance and
was used to quantify the oil-paint conc. in unknown
test samples of the biodegradation experiments.

Conclusion
The most predominant bacterial isolate in all the soil samples was Bacillus subtilis (A, B, D).
A novel oil-paint degrading bacterial strain of Brevibacillus parabrevis (C) was isolated and
characterized from the paint contaminated soil sample of Khairpur paint warehouse.
Among four bacterial isolates and their consortia, the maximum oil-paint % removal was achieved with
bacterial consortia (94%, 81% followed by Brevibacillus parabrevis (C) (83%, 73%) with and without
glucose, respectively.
The isolate C (Bravibacillus parabrevis) and consortium showed significant removal of toxicity
followed by the B. subtilis (B), B. subtilis (D), and B. subtilis (A) with glucose among the all
treatments.
All the isolates have strong potential for the enzymes and bioactive metabolites production. The highest
Laccase and LiP production threshholds were recorded for the isolate C, followed by consortium,
isolate B, Isolate A and isolate D, respectively.
The isolate A as well as bacterial consortium, revealed the release of some cytotoxic metabolites in the
absence of glucose, while in the presence of glucose there were no production of such cytotoxic
metabolites.
72
Future Prospects
The isolated bacterial strains could be explored for the biodegradation & bioremediation of various
other environmental pollutants
Future optimization studies are needed for complete mineralization of the oil-paints used.
Genes involved in biodegradation could be studied in detail.
Mechanism of oil-paint biodegradation and metabolites could be studied in detail.
The isolates could be a good source of antibacterial as well as antifungal agents, and should be
studied in more detail for the production of antimicrobial metabolites.
Enzyme profiling of the isolates for different enzymes could be done in details, as the isolates
showed an excellent potential for some certain enzymes
Strains improvement could be accomplished in order to achieve desired results for biodegradation.

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
Procedure and PCR conditions
10㎕ of template DNA was (v/v) added in 20㎕of PCR reaction solution
27F/1492R primers were used for bacteria, andthen 35 amplification cycles at 94℃ for 45 sec,55℃ for 60 sec, and 72℃ for 60 sec wereperformed
DNA fragments were amplified about 1,400 bp inthe case of bacteria
Included a positive control (E. coli genomic DNA)and a negative control in the PCR.
Purification of PCR products
Unincorporated PCR primers and dNTPs fromPCR products were removed by using MontagePCR Clean up kit (Millipore).
88
Sequencing
Sequencing procedure and conditions:
The pure amplified PCR products weresequenced by using two primers asdescribed (Table 1)
Sequencing were performed by using BigDye terminator cycle sequencing kit v.3.1(Applied Bio Systems, USA)
Sequencing products were resolved on anApplied Biosystems model 3730XLautomated DNA sequencing system(Applied BioSystems, USA) at theMacrogen, Inc., Seoul, Korea.
