Abstract
Aerobic, carbon-limited, enrichment cultures containing 3-aminobenzenesulfonate or 3-nitrobenzenesulfonate as the sole source of carbon and energy yielded growth and complete substrate disappearance. Pure cultures of putative pseudomonads were isolated which utilized these compounds quantitatively. Degradation was compared with that of 2- and 4-aminobenzenesulfonate.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
