Abstract

We report a new PCNB-degrading strain (PCNB-2) that is able to utilize and grow on PCNB (100 ppm) as a sole carbon source. This strain was identified as Alcaligenes xylosoxidans based upon 16S rDNA sequence analysis, API 20 NE tests and cell membrane lipid analysis. The new PCNB degrader Alcaligenes xylosoxidans PCNB-2 could find use in bioremediation of PCNB, which is environmentally persistent.
