This research investigated the biotransformation of IMPA, the neutralization product of the nerve agent Sarin, by a microbial consortia. As mandated by the Chemical Weapons Convention signed by 132 countries in 1993, all chemical warfare agents are to be destroyed within ten years of ratification. T
The biodegradation of fenitrothion (an organophosphorus pesticide) in garden soil of western Uttar Pradesh in northern India has been studied. Both natural and autoclaved soil were treated with 10 p.p.m. of fenitrothion at field capacity moisture and incubated for 90 days in glass containers at 25 a
## Abstract Microorganisms provide a wealth of biodegradative potential in the reduction and elimination of xenobiotic compounds in the environment. One useful metric to evaluate potential biodegradation pathways is thermodynamic feasibility. However, experimental data for the thermodynamic propert
