  • Title: [Degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by a strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens 16N2].

    Journal: Prikl Biokhim Mikrobiol; 1991; 27(1):76-81. PubMed ID: 1903887.
    Abstract:
    The growth of Pseudomonas fluorescens 16N2 on naphthalene was accompanied with accumulation of salicylate in the culture medium and induction of gentisate 1,2-dioxygenase and catechol 1,2-dioxygenase. The transformation of anthracene by the cells growing on hexadecane led to the formation of 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoate and salicylate. Pathways for naphthalene and anthracene degradation are proposed.
