Catechol and phenol degradation by a methanogenic population of bacteria.
AUTOR(ES)
Healy, J B
RESUMO
An anaerobic population of bacteria became acclimated to catechol and phenol in 32 and 18 days, respectively. Evidence from carbon balance measurements indicates that the aromatic ring is cleaved and that the products are stoichiometrically fermentable to methane and carbon dioxide.
