Abstract
In this work, we have investigated the substrate selectivity pattern o f strain B-356 resting cell suspensions and cell lysates towards selec ted chlorobiphenyl congeners. The strain showed a preference for the d ouble meta-substituted congener 3,3'-dichlorobiphenyl over the double ortho-substituted congener 2,2'-dichlorobiphenyl and the double para-s ubstituted congener 4,4'-dichlorobiphenyl. The results are discussed w ith reference to the substrate selectivity pattern reported for Pseudo monas sp. strain LB400. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Limited.
