Ecophysiological Properties and Hydrolytic Activity of Chemoorganotrophic Bacteria from Holosiivskyi National Nature Park

Any natural ecosystem contains a specific range of microorganisms. The anthropogenic impact can cause a change in the growth conditions of soil and rhizospheric microbiome and affect the number and the physiological properties of microorganisms. The aim of the study was to isolate the representative microorganisms from terrestrial ecosystems of Holosiivskyi National Nature Park (Ukraine) that are not exposed to extreme factors, to study their ecophysiological properties (resistance to UV radiation, dehydration, hypersalinity, temperature), and to study the extracellular glycoside and proteolytic activities. Methods. Aerobic chemoorganotrophic bacteria isolated at 30°C from soil and phytocenoses of Holosiivskyi National Nature Park were studied. Meat-peptone agar was used to cultivate bacteria. Bacterial UV irradiation was performed with a BUF-15 lamp (λ=254 nm) in the range of 30—1350 J/m2. The temperature range of growth and halotolerance of microorganisms was determined in the range of 1—42°C and 0.1—150 g NaCl/L, respectively. Bacterial isolates were cultivated in submerged conditions at 28°C for 4 days. Synthetic p-nitrophenyl substrates, soluble starch, and guar galactomannan
