Microbial hydrocarbon co-oxidation. I. Oxidation of mono- and dicyclic hydrocarbons by soil isolates of the genus Nocardia.
Nocardia cultures, isolated from soil by use of n-paraffins as the sole carbon source, have been shown to bring about significant oxidation of several methyl-substituted mono- and dicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Oxygen uptake by washed cell suspensions was not a reliable indicator of oxidation. Under co-oxidation conditions in shaken flasks, o- and p-xylenes were oxidized to their respective mo...
متن کاملThe Microbial Oxidation of Methanol
Several bacteria are known which are capable of growth with methanol or certain other C, compounds as sole source of carbon and energy (Peel & Quayle, 1961), but little is known about the enzymes involved in the oxidation of methanol (Quayle, 1961). It has been suggested (Dworkin & Foster, 1956; Leadbetter & Foster, 1958; Harrington & Kallio, 1960; Kaneda & Roxburgh, 1959b) that methanol oxidat...
متن کاملMonitoring of Bioventing Process for Diesel - Contaminated Soil by Dehydrogenase Activity , Microbial Counts and the Ratio of n - Alkane / Isoprenoid
−Monitoring parameters were evaluated for a bioventing process that was designed to treat soils contaminated with diesel fuel. Statistical analyses were conducted to evaluate correlations between total petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations in the contaminated soil and physico-chemical parameters of soil such as microbial counts, dehydrogenase activity, and n-alkane/isoprenoid ratio. The correlat...
متن کاملMicrobial oxidation of naphthalene. I. Factors concerning salicylate accumulation.
Little information has been contributed to the mechanisms of biological degradation of polycyclic hydrocarbons. The oxidation of naphthalene has received the most attention. Strawinski and Stone (1943, 1954) reported the isolation of substantial amounts of salicylic acid ("most" of the 2.9 mg per ml medium of ether extractable product) from the breakdown of naphthalene by Pseudomonas aeruginosa...
