Abstract: This paper investigates the feasibility of applying in-situ Bioremediation (ISB) to three sites contaminated with vinyl chloride and/or chlorinated alkanes such as 1,2-DCA and 1,1,2-TCA, presenting distinct hydrogeological settings and history of contaminant loading. Biotransformation… read more here.

DOI: 10.15376/biores.14.3.6558-6576
Abstract: Manganese peroxidase (MnP), a crucial enzyme in biodegradation of lignin, is synthesized by most white rot fungi. To obtain novel enzymes with superior biodegradation potential, MnP-producing wild isolates were evaluated for their ability to degrade… read more here.
