## Abstract Plasmid‐harbouring, sterol‐decomposing organism __Arthrobacter oxydans__ 317 was treated with sodium dodecylsulphate to obtain a plasmid‐cured strain __A. oxydans__ 317 A1 incapable of utilizing 4‐androstene‐3,17‐dione (AD). The strain 317 Al was unable to degrade β‐sitosterol side chai

Art/irohcrcter osyciuns 3 17 capable of complete degradation of 0-silosterol harbours two plasmids -pJLI and pRLI. Standard plasmid isolation methods can easily detect pJL1 but not pRLI. The latter plasmid was isolated by a mild procedure using a,a'-dipyridyl as lytic agent and separated from pJLI b
The non-cellulolytic ruminal bacterium, Prevotella bryantii, grew rapidly on water soluble L-glucans, but a mutant deficient in carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) activity could not. Native activity gels prepared with CMC and L-glucan indicated that the CMCase and L-glucanase activities migrated at sim
