✦ Synopsis

A Micrococcus sp., isolated by enrichment culture, grew on 4-chlorobiphenyl at 2 g/l as sole carbon source and produced 4-chlorobenzoic acid in the culture medium as a dead-end metabolite. The organism degraded 4-chlorobiphenyl by 2,3-dihydroxylation followed by meta-ring cleavage to yield 4-chlorobenzoate and carbon fragments for cell growth.

Two Rhodococcus strains, R. opacus strain AS2 and R. erythropolis strain AS3, that were able to use 4-nitroanisole as the sole source of carbon and energy, were isolated from environmental samples. The first step of the degradation involved the O-demethylation of 4-nitroanisole to 4-nitrophenol whic

The research of 4-chlorobiphenyl in aqueous solution was conducted in two parts. The first part of the study explored the adsorption of 4-chlorobiphenyl onto glass. When the initial concentration of 4-chlorobiphenyl was below 25 Β΅g/L, the sample concentration became undetectable after 24 h. With res
