| Description | Gram positive irregular rods are bacteria with wide spectrum of biodegrading activity. The strain Rhodococcus opacus C6-1 degrades 4-nitrocatechol, 5-nitroguaiacol and 3-nitrophenol. Degradation of other 4-substituted nitrophenols was not proved - 4-nitrophenol and 4-nitroguaiacol are not degraded, on the other side. Degradation of 4-nitrocatechol is not obvious, if the degrading strain is not capable to degrade 4-nitrophenol too. |
