Chemosphere, 60(1), 79-84 (2005-05-25)
Organic contaminants of environmental concern such as polychlorinated biphenyls have dispersed widely throughout the ecosystems and accumulate in living organisms, and a variety of adverse biological effects have been reported. In this study, we investigated the effects of 3-chlorobiphenyl in

Microbiology (Reading, England), 142 ( Pt 11), 3283-3293 (1996-11-01)
Chromosomal DNA fragments encoding the ability to utilize biphenyl as sole carbon source (Bph+) were mobilized by means of plasmid RP4::Mu3A from strain JB1 (tentatively identified as Burkholderia sp.) to Alcaligenes eutrophus CH34 at a frequency of 10(-3) per transferred

A chlorobenzoate-catabolic transposon (Tn5271) was introduced on a conjugative plasmid (pBRC60) in the natural host, Alcaligenes sp. strain BR60, into lake water and sediment flowthrough microcosms. Experimental microcosms were exposed to micromolar levels of 3-chlorobenzoate, 4-chloroaniline, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate, or 3-chlorobiphenyl. The

Raman confocal microscopy was used to discriminate between cultures of Burkholderia xenovorans LB400 exposed to four different common environmental pollutants: phenanthrene, dodecane, 3-chlorobiphenyl and pentachlorophenol. Evidence is presented for the application of Raman spectroscopy as a bioassay for pollutant bioavailability
F Fava et al.
Applied microbiology and biotechnology, 36(2), 240-245 (1991-11-01)
A mixed bacterial culture obtained from polychlorinated-biphenyl-contaminated river sediments proved capable of degrading 3-chlorobiphenyl (3-CB) under aerobic laboratory conditions. Almost total mineralization of 150 mg/l of 3-CB occurred when, after 3 days of incubation, the mineral medium was supplied with
