Microbial degradation of halogenated aromatics: molecular mechanisms and enzymatic reactions
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 13, Issue 1, Page 67-86, January 2020., 2020 This minireview discusses the molecular mechanisms of the enzymatic reactions for degrading halogenated aromatics which naturally occur in various microorganisms. An in‐depth understanding of how microbes employ various enzymes in biodegradation can lead to the development of new biotechnologies via enzyme/cell/metabolic engineering or synthetic ...

Ecogenomics of microbial communities in bioremediation of chlorinated contaminated sites
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Organohalide compounds such as chloroethenes, chloroethanes and polychlorinated benzenes are among the most significant pollutants in the world. These compounds are often found in contamination plumes with other pollutants such as solvents, pesticides ...

Effect of Moderate Heat on TCE Reductive Dechlorination Rates in Groundwater
Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 44-54, Spring 2026.Abstract Low‐temperature heating (in the mesophilic range of ~15 to 40 °C) of contaminated aquifers offers the prospect of increasing the rates for biotic and abiotic treatment of volatile organic compounds. Thermal In Situ Sustainable Remediation (TISR®) is one of the approaches available to implement low temperature heating.

Impact of Anaerobic Cold Storage on Subseafloor Microbial Communities
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Sediment cores recovered from the deep sea often cannot be sampled for microbiological analysis immediately due to the need for core splitting and processing for subsequent onboard measurements and core storage. Consequently, sections are often stored at 4°C under anaerobic conditions for extended periods.

Bioaugmentation with Distinct Dehalobacter Strains Achieves Chloroform Detoxification in Microcosms
, 2016 Chloroform (CF) is a widespread groundwater contaminant not susceptible to aerobic degradation. Under anoxic conditions, CF can undergo abiotic and cometabolic transformation but detoxification is generally not achieved.
