Antimicrobial activities of phenolic extracts of coffee mucilage
The inhibition exerted by ethanolic extracts of coffee mucilage on the growth of bacteria was studied by microdilution in agar. The growth inhibition effect was evaluated for pathogenic or food spoilage related bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC ...

Metabolism of .ALPHA.-hydroxyglutarate by an Alcaligenes sp.
α-Hydroxyglutarate dependent NADH oxidizing activity was found in a cell-free extract of Alcaligenes No. 314. Succinate was identified as a product from L-α-hydroxyglutarate in the extract. Stoichiometric conversion of L-α-hydroxyglutarate to succinate occurred under anaerobic conditions without the addition of any cofactors, while the reaction was ...

Aerobic degradation of polychlorinated biphenyls by Alcaligenes sp. JB1: metabolites and enzymes [PDF]
In contrast to the degradation of penta- and hexachlorobiphenyls in chemostat cultures, the metabolism of PCBs by Alcaligenes sp. JB1 was shown to be restricted to PCBs with up to four chlorine substituents in resting-cell assays. Among these, the PCB congeners containing ortho chlorine substituents on both phenyl rings were found to be least degraded.
