Isolation and characterization of a Rhodococcus strain able to degrade 2-fluoro...
Duque, Anouk F.; Hasan, Syed A.; Bessa, Vânia S.; Carvalho, Maria F.; Samin, Ghufrana; Janssen, Dick B.; Castro, Paula M. L.A pure bacterial culture able to utilize 2- fluorophenol (2-FP) as sole carbon and energy source was isolated by selective enrichment from sediments collected from a contaminated site in Northern Portugal. 16S rRNA gene analysis showed that the organism (strain FP1) belongs to the genus Rhodococcus. When grown aerobically on 2-FP, growth kinetics of strain FP1 followed the Luong model. An inhibitory effect of ...
Labrys portucalensis sp. nov., a fluorobenzenedegrading bacterium isolated from...
Carvalho, Maria F.; Marco, Paolo De; Duque, Anouk F.; Pacheco, Catarina C.; Janssen, Dick B.; Castro, Paula M. L.A detailed classification of a novel bacterial strain, designated F11T, capable of degrading fluorobenzene as a sole carbon and energy source, was performed by using a polyphasic approach. This Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile, non-spore-forming, aerobic bacterium was isolated from a sediment sample collected from an industrially contaminated site in northern Portugal. The predominant whole-cell fatty acid...
Degradation of Fluorobenzene by Rhizobiales Strain F11 via ortho Cleavage of 4-...
Carvalho, Maria F.; Ferreira, Maria Isabel M.; Moreira, Irina S.; Castro, Paula M. L.; Janssen, Dick B.The aerobic metabolism of fluorobenzene by Rhizobiales sp. strain F11 was investigated. Liquid chromatography- mass spectrometry analysis showed that 4-fluorocatechol and catechol were formed as intermediates during fluorobenzene degradation by cell suspensions. Both these compounds, unlike 3-fluorocatechol, supported growth and oxygen uptake. Cells grown on fluorobenzene contained enzymes for the ortho pathway...
