This study examined the microbial transformation of carbazole (CZ) by an isolated bacterium that can use CZ as a sole carbon and nitrogen source. The strain identified as Pseudomonas stutzeri produced a large amount of anthranilic acid (AA) from CZ in the medium containing a nonionic surfactant. In dialysis culture using ion-exchange resin, 7.9 g/liter (58mm) of AA was accumulated from 15g/lite...
