The rates of Hg(IIpEDTA reduction by conformationally biased flavins are reported. The rates of the reduction correlate to the redox potential of the flavin model. In the case of 8,9,10-trimethylflavin (6). the rate was slower than expected from the redox potential.
A strain of broad-spectrum, mercury-resistant Pseudomonas putida FB1 was used to remove mercury as the gaseous element (Hg(0)) from a continuous axenic culture, fed with a synthetic medium containing 1 mg Hg l(-1) as HgCl2. Mercury determinations were performed in steady-state cultures using various
