Biodegradation, 6(2), 83-92 (1995-06-01)
The Gram-negative strain S1, isolated from activated sludge, metabolized 4-chloro-2-methylphenol by an inducible pathway via a modified ortho-cleavage route as indicated by a transiently secreted intermediate, identified as 2-methyl-4-carboxymethylenebut-2-en-4-olide by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Beside 4-chloro-2-methylphenol only 2,4-dichlorophenol and 4-chlorophenol were

A field monitoring campaign for pesticides and their transformation intermediates was carried out in the Rhône delta (Southern France). It was evidenced the following transformation sequence: MCPA-->4-chloro-2-methylphenol (CMP)-->4-chloro-2-methyl-6-nitrophenol (CMNP). Interestingly CMP disappeared about as quickly as MCPA, while CMNP was

The concurrent bacterial degradation of 2-(2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxy)propionic acid and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid was studied using a stirred tank reactor and a bacterial culture which had been originally derived by enrichment with MCPP. High pressure liquid chromatographic methodology was used to measure both

Current theoretical, two compartment description of integrative passive sampling is renewed to establish a three-compartment model. The developed theoretical description includes external chemical conditions near the receiving phase, conditions inside the receiving phase and the chemically bonded compartments. New variable

Natural attenuation of mecoprop has been studied by determining changes in enantiomeric fraction in different redox environments down gradient from a landfill in the Lincolnshire limestone. Such changes could be due to differential metabolism of the enantiomers, or enantiomeric inversion.
