Abstract
The nutrient demand of the pentachlorophenol-degrading bacterium Mycob acterium chlorophenolicum was characterized in shake flask experiments . A minimal medium containing sorbitol as sole carbon and energy sourc e and thiamine as the only organic growth factor was developed that al lows satisfactory growth of the strain.
