A bacterial strain (AD26) capable of utilizing atrazine as a sole nitrogen source for growth was isolated from an industrial wastewater sample by enrichment culture. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing identified AD26 as an Arthrobacter sp. PCR assays indicated that AD26 contained atrazine-degrading genes trzN and atzBC. The trzN gene of AD26 only differs from the trzN of Arthrobacter aurescens TCI by one base (A→T at 907) and one amino acid (Met→Leu at 303). The specific activity of trzN of AD26 in crude cell extract was 0.28 U/mg, which was 1.2 times that of TCI. This strain has shown faster growth and atrazine-degradation fates in atrazine-containing minimal media than two well characterized atrazine-degrading bacteria, Pseudomonas sp. ADP and Arthrobacter aurescens TCI. After incubating for 48 h at 30℃, the OD{sub}600)o of AD26 reached 2.6 compared with 1.33 of ADP. AD26 was capable of degrading 500 mg/L of atrazine in minimal medium at 95 in 72 h, while the degradative rates by TCI and ADP were only 90 and 86, respectively. A bioremediation trial of contaminated soil has indicated that AD26 can degrade as high as 98 of atrazine contained in soil (300 mg/kg) after incubating for 20 d at 26℃, nominating this strain as a good candidate for use in bioremediation programs.
