Isolation,Identification and Biodegradation Characteristics of A New Bacterial Strain Degrading BTEX
1株BTEX降解新菌株的分离鉴定及其降解特性研究

A bacterial strain,able to efficiently degrade benzene,toluene,ethyl benzene,and o-xylene(BTEX) compounds,was isolated by acclimating and enriching the activated sludge from the aeration tank in refinery wastewater treatment plant using BTEX as the sole carbon source.Based on the morphological characteristics,physiological and biochemical characteristics,sequence analysis of 16S rDNA,and Biolog identification system,the isolate was identified as Mycobacterium cosmeticum which was a newly discovered species ...
