Abstract:
SUMMARY Although Escherichia coli has long been recognized as the best-understood living organism, little was known about its abilities to use aromatic compounds as sole carbon and energy sources. This review gives an extensive overview of the current knowledge of the catabolism of aromatic compounds by E. coli. After giving a general overview of the aromatic compounds that E. coli strains encounter and mineralize in the different habitats that they colonize, we provide an up-to-date status report on the genes and proteins involved in the catabolism of such compounds, namely, several aromatic

Abstract:
The main factors responsible for anaerobic recalcitrance are reviewed. Anaerobic recalcitrance is associated with hydrocarbons lacking functional groups, branched molecules (gasoline oxygenates), aromatic amines and aromatic sulfonates. The most recalcitrant compounds are high molecular weight non-hydrolyzable polymers such as plastic, lignin and humus, which cannot be taken up by cells. Recently new capabilities of anaerobic microorganisms have been discovered to degrade compounds previously considered to be recalcitrant. For example, anaerobic bacteria initiate the degradation of alkylbenzen

Abstract:
This study has shown that microorganisms can adapt to degrade mixtures of aromatic pollutants at relatively high rates in the μg/l concentration range. The biodegradation rates of the following compounds were investigated in biofilm systems: aromatic hydrocarbons, phenol, methylphenols, chlorophenols, nitrophenol, chlorobenzenes and aromatic nitrogen-, sulphur- or oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds (NSO-compounds). Furthermore, a comparison with degradation rates observed for easily degradable organics is also presented. At concentrations below 20-100 μg/l the degradation of the aromatic

Abstract:
Nuclear energy generation results in the production of effluents and radioactive waste that are very difficult to treat and dispose. A considerable fraction of nuclear waste is discharged in the form of complex mixtures of hazardous organic compounds and metallic radionuclides. The most serious pollution is caused by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls that are very difficult to remove from the environment. The nuclear industry faces certain challenges related to treatment and safe disposal of these mixed radioactive organic wastes due to the toxicity and reca

Microcosm studies were conducted beginning with three xylene isomers: ortho-xylene, meta-xylene and para-xylene; and continued with the four mononitroxylene (MNX) isomers, culminating with testing ten dinitroxylene (DNX) isomers. Soil samples were obtained from a historically contaminated site with high levels of dinitrotoluene (DNT), trinitrotoluene (TNT) and dinitroxylene (DNX) and used as the inoculum for microcosm tests. The microcosm method of different isomers was based on the previous work on biodegradation of nitrotoluene. As it was demonstrated previously that 2,4-DNT degrading bacter

Abstract:
The Self-Cycling Fermentation (SCF) technique was applied to the biodegradation of several aromatic compounds by Pseudomonas putida and Pseudomonas fluorescens. The SCF technique was shown to be a useful research tool in aromatic biodegradation studies as well as a potential pollution treatment method. Advantages of SCFs include stable and highly repeatable performance and almost complete substrate consumption. Biomass concentration, cycle time and the minimum dissolved oxygen level were monitored from cycle to cycle and the variation of these parameters during steady-state operation was less

Abstract:
Experiments were conducted to examine the biodegradability of three aromatic compounds typically found at groundwater contamination sites; benzene, toluene, and chlorobenzene. A pure Pseudomonas species, JS6, was used in all batch experiments. JS6 was grown on benzene, chlorobenzene, toluene, yeast extract, or glucose as sole source of carbon and energy. These cultures were in turn used to test the biodegradability of the three aromatics of interest both in the presence and absence of the chemical used for acclimation. The results indicated that the presence of a non-aromatic substrate (yeast

The enzyme was an α₂ homodimer with a native M<sub>r</sub> of 78,000, did not contain metals or cofactors and was specific for phloroglucinol and NADPH with a K<sub>m</sub> of 800 μM and 6.7 μM respectively at pH 6.8.
