Abstract
The Agrobacterium radiobacter 8/4 strain capable of degradation of bro moxynil, ioxynil and dichlobenil, arylnitrile herbicides was isolated from soil and cell entrapment was investigated. Three immobilization t echniques was used: Ca-alginate, Ca-pectate and kappa-carrageenan tech nique, and resting cells. The highest degradation rates were obtained with Ca-alginate and kappa-carrageenan entrapped cells.
