Kendaia clay loam contained more than 105 microbial cells per g able to convert 14C-carbonyl-labelled carbofuran (2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-7-yl methylcarbamate) to ~4CO2 but never more than 130 cells per g transforming 14C-ring-labelled carbofuran to CO 2. The sizes of the population rarel

No microorganisms could be isolated from chemostats or from a soil column fed with 4,5-dichloroguaiacol as the only carbon source. If guaiacol was added to chemostats with 4,5-dichloroguaiacol, either soil microbial consortia or guaiacol-degrading bacteria could dechlorinate the 4,5-dichloroguaiacol
Of 147 microorganisms isolated from a loamy sand, 71 showed good growth with lindane (gamma-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexachlorocyclohexane) and produced chloride in an aqueous medium. Thirteen soil microorganisms were selected to study the utilization of lindane. Lindane was metabolized by the microbes to gamma-
