Abstract
Pseudomonas putida, isolated from decomposing plant materials, degrade d several lignin-related aromatic compounds. After 30 days of incubati on in media containing polymeric Kraft-lignin (PKL), the amount of Kla son lignin had decreased by about 13%. When C-14-labelled dehydropolym ers of coniferyl alcohol (DHP) lignins and C-14-lignin-lignocelluloses were used as substrates, mineralization to (CO2)-C-14 by the P. putid a strain ranged from 1.4% to 2.1%.
