The adsorption of naphthoic acids to iron oxides and hydroxides influences strongly their mobility in soils and sediments. Sorption of 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (HNA) to three iron oxides was examined over a wide range of conditions (pH, ionic strength, sorbate and
The salicylate 1,2-dioxygenase (SDO) from the bacterium Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans BN12 is a versatile gentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (GDO) that converts both gentisate (2,5-dihydroxybenzoate) and various monohydroxylated substrates. Several variants of this enzyme were rationally designed based on the previously determined enzyme structure

The crystallographic structures of the adducts of salicylate 1,2-dioxygenase (SDO) with substrates salicylate, gentisate and 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoate, obtained under anaerobic conditions, have been solved and analyzed. This ring fission dioxygenase from the naphthalenesulfonate-degrading bacterium Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans BN12, is a homo-tetrameric class
Salmeterol is an inhaled long-acting selective beta(2)-adrenoceptor agonist that is commercially available as the xinafoate (1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid) salt of the racemic mixture of the two optical isomers, (R)- and (S)-, of salmeterol. It acts locally in the lung through action

The biodegradation of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) by using Polyporus sp. S133, a white-rot fungus isolated from oil-contaminated soil was investigated. Approximately 73% of the initial concentration of BaP was degraded within 30 d of incubation. The isolation and characterization of 3
