A strain of Pseudomonas stutzeri KS25 utilizing 2-chlorobenzoic and 2,5-dichlorobenzoic acids as the sole carbon and energy source was isolated from polychlorophenol-contaminated soil and sewage, using the method of enrichment cultures. This strain was also able to grow on 2-fluoro-

From long-term chemostat experiments, variants of Pseudomonas aeruginosa JB2 were obtained which exhibited altered properties with respect to the metabolism of 2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid (2,5-DBA). Thus, unlike the original strain JB2-WT, strain JB2-var1 is able to grow in continuous culture on

Pyrocatechase activity was studied in the Pseudomonas sp. CPE2 strain, which is capable of growing on 2-chlorobenzoic and 2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid, giving rise to catechol and 4-chlorocatechol, respectively, as intermediate metabolites. The CPE2 crude extract was found to metabolize both catechol
