Abstract excerpt
A Gram-negative bacterium, strain 3CB-1, isolated from a 3-chlorobenzoate enrichment culture inoculated with a sediment sample is capable of degrading various aromatic compounds and halogenated derivatives with nitrate as electron acceptor. Compounds capable of serving as carbon and energy sources include 3-chlorobenzoate, 3-bromobenzoate, 2-fluorobenzoate, 4-fluorobenzoate, benzoate, 3-hydroxybenzoate,...
