BACTERIAL STRAIN AUREOBACTERIUM. sp K2-17 AND METHOD FOR THE MICROBIAL DECONTAMINATION OF MATERIALS WHICH ARE CONTAMINATED WITH COMPOUNDS FROM PHENOXYALCANOIC ACID-HERBICIDE PRODUCTION

摘要

The invention relates to the new bacterial strain Corynebacterium sp. K2-17 and to a process for the microbial decontamination of materials polluted with compounds from the production of phenoxyalkanoic acid herbicides, such as 2,4-dichlorophenoxybutyric acid (DCPB), 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxybutyric acid (MCPB), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP), and 4-chloro-2-methylphenol (MCP) in a pH range of from slightly acidic to strongly alkaline.
