Six cyclohexylacetic acid-degrading strains were isolated from soil samples in Japan and identified as members of the genera Cupriavidus (strain KUA-1), Rhodococcus, and Dietzia by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. For the first time members of these genera were shown

Among the urinary metabolites of dodecylcyclohexane or cyclohexylacetic acid, the glycine conjugate of 1-hydroxy-cyclohexylacetic acid was identified and its origin studied, using cyclohexylacetic acid as the starting molecule, as it results from beta-oxidation of cyclohexyldodecanoic acid produced by terminal oxidation

A strain of Arthrobacter was isolated by enrichment culture with cyclohexaneacetate as the sole source of carbon and grew with a doubling time of 4.2 h. In addition to growing with cyclohexaneacetate, the organism also grew with cyclohexanebutyrate at concentrations

Naphthenic acids (NAs) are a major contributor to toxicity in tailings waste generated from bitumen production in the Athabasca Oil Sands region. While investigations have shown that bacteria can biodegrade NAs and reduce tailings toxicity, the potential of algae to
