The production of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes by oxidation of primary alcohols was achieved with Gluconobacter oxydans DSM 2343. The biotransformation was optimised studying the oxidation of 2-phenyl-1-ethanol to 2-phenylacetaldehyde. A high molar conversion (95% chromatographic conversion, 83%
