An Arthrobacter citreus strain suitable for degrading ε-caprolactam in polyamide waste and accumulation of glutamic acid [PDF]
AMB Express, 2019 ε-Caprolactam-a toxic xenobiotic compound present in industrial polyamide waste was found to be degraded by caprolactam-degrading bacteria. Arthrobacter citreus was able to utilize up to 20 g ε-caprolactam/l as the sole source of carbon more efficiently ...

Plasmids specifying ε-caprolactam degradation inPseudomonasstrains [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1984 Abstract The large plasmid DNAs were found in several strains of Pseudomonas sp. capable of growing on ϵ-caprolactam as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen. The ability to grow on ϵ-caprolactam and ϵ-aminocaproic acid as sole sources of carbon or nitrogen and adipic acid as a sole source of carbon could be transferred in interspecies crosses.
