For more: http://www.extension.org/67635 Management practices from large-scale swine production facilities have resulted in the increased collection and storage of manure for off-season fertilization use. Odor produced during storage has increased the tension among rural neighbors and among urban and rural residents, and greenhouse gas emissions may contribute to climate change. Production of these compounds from stored manure is the result of microbial activity of the anaerobic bacterial populations present during storage. We have been studying the bacterial populations of stored manure to develop methods to reduce bacterial metabolic activity and production of gaseous emissions, including the toxic odorant hydrogen sulfide produced by sulfate-reducing bacteria. Quebracho and other condensed tannins were tested for effects on total gas, hydrogen sulfide, and methane production and levels of sulfate-reducing bacteria in in vitro swine manure slurries. Quebracho condensed tannins were found to be most effective of tannins tested, and total gas, hydrogen sulfide, and methane production were all inhibited by greater than 90% from in vitro manure slurries. The inhibition was maintained for at least 28 days. Total bacterial numbers in the manure were reduced significantly following addition of quebracho tannins, as were sulfate-reducing bacteria. These results indicate that the condensed tannins are eliciting a collective effect on the bacterial population, and the addition of quebracho tannins to stored swine manure may reduce odorous and greenhouse gas emissions.

6. Identification of Bacteria Involved in
Manure Breakdown and Odor Production
I. Classical Microbiology
• Pure culture isolation and identification using
habitat simulating media, biochemical techniques
and 16S rDNA gene sequence analyses.
II. Molecular Ecology (Culture Independent)
• Isolate total DNA from fecal and manure samples,
determine DNA sequence of isolated 16S rDNA
genes, and identify bacteria by comparison with
known sequences in GenBank database.

Comparison of Human Populations Versus
Swine Manure Pit Bacteria
10. Summary
•Microbial populations of stored swine manure
are dominated by Gram-positive, low %G+C,
anaerobic bacteria.
•The vast majority of the bacterial isolates (and
DNA clones) could only be identified to the
genera level, and many strains represent new
genera and species.
•Swine manure represents a rich ecosystem for
isolation of new and novel bacteria.
11. • Using 16S rDNA sequence analyses and biochemical
studies we have been able to identify new bacterial
genera and species.
• Characterized populations of sulfate-reducing bacteria
(SRB), which produce hydrogen sulfide, using PCR and
qRT-PCR. Archeal 16S rDNA gene and dissimilatory
sulfite reductase (dsrA) gene primer sets were used for
analyses.
• Identified 3 new groups of SRB.
• Groups fell within known lineages of SRBs; however,
the clones represented novel species within these genera.
