Complete microbial degradation of both enantiomers of the chiral herbicide mecoprop [(RS)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propionic acid] in an enantioselective manner by Sphingomonas herbicidovorans sp. nov.
Sphingomonas herbicidovorans MH (previously designated Flavobacterium sp. strain MH) was able to utilize the chiral herbicide (RS)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propionic acid (mecoprop) as the sole carbon and energy source. When strain MH was offered racemic mecoprop as the growth substrate, it could degrade both the (R) and the (S) enantiomer to completion, as shown by biomass formation, substr...
متن کاملIntentional self-poisoning with the chlorophenoxy herbicide 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA).
STUDY OBJECTIVE Data on poisoning with MCPA (4-chloro-2-methyl-phenoxyacetic acid) are limited to 6 case reports. Our objective is to describe outcomes from intentional self-poisoning with MCPA in a prospective case series of 181 patients presenting to hospitals in Sri Lanka. METHODS Patient information was collected by on-site study physicians as part of an ongoing prospective cohort study o...
متن کاملRapid Biodegradation of Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE) by Pure Bacterial Cultures
Two pure bacterial strains capable of rapid degrading methyl tert–butyl ether (MTBE) were isolated from an industrial wastewater treatment plant, identified and characterized. These strains are able to grow on MTBE as the sole carbon and energy sources and completely mineralize it to the biomass and carbon dioxide. The strains were identified as Bacillus cereus and Klebsiella terrigena. Bot...
متن کاملBioremediation of methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) by three pure bacterial cultures
Background: Bioremediation of groundwater and soil contamination is more economical than physicochemical remediation. The present study focused on the bioremediation capability of two bacterial species (Klebsiella planticola and Enterobacter cloacae) from the family Enterobacteriaceae. These bacteria have been identified as new species with capability of degrading methyl tertiary-butyl ether (...
متن کامل2-[(4-Methylbenzoyl)hydrazono]propionic acid monohydrate
In the title compound, C(11)H(12)N(2)O(3)·H(2)O, the water mol-ecule is a hydrogen-bond donor to the double-bond amide and the carbonyl O atoms of two acid mol-ecules; it is also a hydrogen-bond acceptor to the acid -OH and amide -NH- groups. These hydrogen-bonding inter-actions give rise to a layer structure, with the layers parallel to the ab plane.
