Reductive dechlorination of β-hexachlorocyclohexane (β-HCH) by a Dehalobacter species in coculture with a Sedimentibacter sp. [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2005 An anaerobic coculture was enriched from a hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) polluted soil. The coculture reductively dechlorinates the beta-HCH isomer to benzene and chlorobenzene in a ratio of 0.5-2 depending on the amount of beta-HCH degraded. The culture grows with H(2) as electron donor and beta-HCH as electron acceptor, indicating that dechlorination ...

Genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of Dehalobacter UNSWDHB in response to chloroform
Environmental Microbiology Reports, 2016 Summary Organohalide respiring bacteria (ORB) are capable of utilising organohalides as electron acceptors for the generation of cellular energy and consequently play an important role in the turnover of natural and anthropogenically‐derived organohalides.
