Degradation of nitroaromatic compounds by members of the genus Rhodococcus
Original language description
Nitroaromatic compounds are widely distributed in the environment. They are used as drugs, herbicides, pesticides, explosives, dyes and solvents and can be found as contaminants in waste waters, rivers and herbicide- or pesticide-treated soils. Nitroaromatics and products of their complete degradation have relatively high acute toxicity and some may be potential carcinogenic. A few of microorganisms are able to degrade these pollutants. Rhodococci, which are widely occurred in soil and sludge, have beenshown to attack various xenobiotic compounds, including nitroaromatics. We have isolated 4 bacterial strains from soil by selective enrichment with nitroaromatic compounds in mineral medium. Two strains (J2J and J3) were isolated by enrichment with 4-nitrocatechol and two strains (J6 and J7) by enrichment with 4-nitroguaiacol. These strains were identified as members of the genus Rhodococcus on the base of a polyphasic taxonomic approach (morphology, biochemical and physiological charac

Degradace nitroaromatických látek zástupci rodu Rhodococcus
Czech description
Čtyři bakteriální kmeny byly izolovány metodou selektivního nahromadění na nitrovaných aromatických látkách. Dva z nich (J2 a J3) na 4-nitrokatecholu a další 2 (J6 a J7) na 4-nitrogujakolu. Kmeny byly podrobnou taxonomickou studií zařazeny do rodu Rhodococcus a podrobeny studiu degradační aktivity vůči spektru nitrovaných fenolů.
