AB  - The pollution of water resources by pesticides poses serious problems for public 
      health and the environment. In this study, Actinobacteria strains were isolated 
      from three wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and were screened for their 
      ability to degrade 17 pesticide compounds. Preliminary screening of 13 of the 
      isolates of Actinobacteria allowed the selection of 12 strains with potential for 
      the degradation of nine different pesticides as sole carbon source, including 
      aliette, for which there are no previous reports of biodegradation. Evaluation of 
      the bacterial growth and degradation kinetics of the pesticides 
      2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and thiamethoxam (tiam) by selected Actinobacteria 
      strains was performed in liquid media. Strains Streptomyces sp. ML and 
      Streptomyces sp. OV were able to degrade 45% of 2,4-DCP (50 mg/l) as the sole 
      carbon source in 30 days and 84% of thiamethoxam (35 mg/l) in the presence of 
      10 mM of glucose in 18 days. The biodegradation of thiamethoxam by Actinobacteria 
      strains was reported for the first time in this study. These strains are 
      promising for use in bioremediation of ecosystems polluted by this type of 
      pesticides.
