ABSTRACT
Significant progress has been made in mitigating membrane biofouling by microbial quorum quenching (QQ). More efficient and survivable QQ strains need to be discovered. A new strain named Bacillus thuringiensis LZX01 was isolated in this study using a low carbon source concentration "starving" method from a membrane bioreactor (MBR). LZX01 secreted intracellular lactonase to enable QQ behavior and was capable of degrading 90 % of C8-HSL (200 ng/mL) within 30 min, which effectively delayed biofouling by inhibiting the growth of bacteria associated with biofouling and improving the hydrophilicity of bound extracellular polymeric substances. As a result, the membrane biofouling rate of MBR adding LZX01 was four times slower than that of the control MBR. Importantly, LZX01 maintains its QQ activity even in environments contaminated with typical toxic pollutants. Therefore, with high efficiency, toxicity resistance, and easy culture, LZX01 holds great potential and significant promise for biofouling control applications.
