## Abstract A 2βhaloacid dehalogenaseβproducing bacterium, designated DEH99, was isolated from the marine sponge __Hymeniacidon perlevis__ using a modified enrichment medium and a pH indicator method. DEH99 could degrade only half of the racemic mixture 2βchloropropionic acid (2βCPA) in the medium.
A bacterium tentatively identified as a Pseudomonas sp. was isolated from a laboratory aquifer column in which toluene was degraded under denitrifying conditions. The organism mineralized toluene in pure culture in the absence of molecular oxygen. In carbon balance studies using [ring-UL-14C]toluene
A new I~-l-O-acyl-I}-l,2-diglucosyl glycoside has been isolated from the membranes of the gram positive bacterium Sarcina ventriculi. Its levels are regulated by environmental conditions such as pH and temperature. The structure was determined by 2-D-NMR spectroscopy and by mass spectrometry.
