Phenoxyl radicals generated pulse radiolytically by the reaction of N.3 with Gly-Tyr decay biomolecularly (2k = 4.7 X 10(8)M-1 s-1) with efficient formation of 2,2'-dimers, which enolize rapidly (k = 2.7 X 10(4) s-1) to produce the 2,2'-biphenolic product. The

Pseudomonas sp. strain HBP1 was found to grow on 2-hydroxy- and 2,2'-dihydroxy-biphenyl as the sole carbon and energy sources. The first step in the degradation of these compounds was catalyzed by an NADH-dependent monooxygenase. The enzyme inserted a hydroxyl group

The capability of the intestinal flora from the gut of xylophagous termites of degrading lignin model compounds was investigated. Different dimeric lignin model compounds-degrading bacteria were obtained from the hindgut flora of Mastotermes darwiniensis Froggatt, Reticulitermes santonensis Feytaud, Nasutitermes nigriceps

A solid phase extraction technique is proposed for preconcentration and speciation of chromium in natural waters using spectrophotometric analysis. The procedure is based on sorption of chromium(III) as 4-(2-benzothiazolylazo)2,2'-biphenyldiol complex on dextran-type anion-exchange gel (Sephadex DEAE A-25). After reduction of

The purpose of this investigation was to examine the capacity of the biphenyl catabolic enzymes of Comamonas testosteroni B-356 to metabolize dihydroxybiphenyls symmetrically substituted on both rings. Data show that 3,3'-dihydroxybiphenyl is by far the preferred substrate for strain B-356.
