Acta microbiologica Bulgarica, 30, 61-66 (1993-01-01)
The microbial association 189 was isolated from soil treated with dimethylterephthalate (DMT) for a long time. The dynamics of its growth, respectively the degradation of the terephthalate ester known as an environmental pollutant has been studied.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy, 61(11-12), 2505-2509 (2005-07-27)
A novel luminescent compound, 9,9-bis[4'-(beta-naphthyl-methacrylate)phenyl]fluorene (F-NMAP) is synthesized by Heck reaction of beta-naphthyl methacrylic ester (NMAE) and 9,9-bis(4'-iodophenyl)-fluorene (BIPF). The structure is characterized by MS, 1H NMR, IR, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The photophysical processes of F-NMAP have been carefully investigated
L Tserovska et al.
Acta microbiologica Bulgarica, 30, 67-71 (1993-01-01)
The mixed microbial culture 189 possesses high biodegradation capacity against dimethylterepthalate (DMT)--a basic substance in polyester fibres production and an environmental pollutant. The process of its degradation was followed and the effect of some external factors (pH, concentration, accompanying substrates)

Pasteurella multocida Sa, a bacterial strain isolated from mangrove sediment by enrichment technique, was capable of transforming dimethyl terephthalate (DMT). Biodegradation of DMT was shown to take place as a series of sequential steps involving the hydrolysis of two ester
Yu Ping Wang et al.
Ecotoxicology (London, England), 15(6), 549-557 (2006-09-07)
Two strains of bacteria were isolated from deep-ocean sediments of the South China Sea using enrichment culturing technique and they were identified as Sphingomonas yanoikuyae DOS01 (AY878409) and Variovorax paradoxus T4 (AY878410) based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. S. yanoikuyae
