Functional Genes and Bacterial Communities During Organohalide Respiration of Chloroethenes in Microcosms of Multi-Contaminated Groundwater

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Microcosm experiments with CE-contaminated groundwater from a former industrial site were set-up to evaluate the relationships between biological CE dissipation, dehalogenase genes abundance and bacterial genera diversity.

Reductive dechlorination in the energy metabolism of anaerobic bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Within the last few decades, several anaerobic bacteria have been isolated which are able to reductively dechlorinate chlorinated aliphatic and aromatic compounds at catabolic rates.

Assimilative and co-metabolic degradation of chloral hydrate by bacteria and their bioremediation potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Although the bacterial degradation of chloral hydrate (CH) has been recognized for several decades, its degradation pathway by assimilation has not been demonstrated.

Thermochemical Recycling and Degradation Strategies of Halogenated Polymers (F−, Cl−, Br−): A Holistic Review Coupled with Mechanistic Insights

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, Volume 25, Issue 6, June 2025.
This review aims to comprehensively address recent degradation techniques (physical, chemical and biological) of halogenated waste polymers with a prime focus on thermal degradation techniques. Exploiting various metal oxides during co‐pyrolysis is deemed a viable solution for recycling halogenated polymeric waste.

Reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene by a stepwise catalysis of different organohalide respiring bacteria and reductive dehalogenases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The enrichment culture SL2 dechlorinating tetrachloroethene (PCE) to ethene with strong trichloroethene (TCE) accumulation prior to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-DCE) formation was analyzed for the presence of organohalide respiring bacteria and reductive ...

Insights into the biodegradation process of 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid under anaerobic condition

open access: yesEcological Processes
Background Chlorophenoxy compounds represent a group of selective herbicides widely used around the world. Chlorophenoxy herbicides are toxic, chemically stable, and can migrate into groundwater through soil leaching, posing a significant threat to ...

The proton/electron ration of the menaquinone-dependent electron transport from dihydrogen to tetrachloroethene in "Dehalobacter restrictus" [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1996
In the anaerobic respiration chain of "Dehalobacter restrictus," dihydrogen functioned as the electron donor and tetrachloroethene (PCE) functioned as the electron acceptor. The hydrogenase faced the periplasm, and the PCE reductase faced the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. Both activities were associated with the cytoplasmic membrane.

Biodegradation of chloroethene compounds under microoxic conditions

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 121, Issue 3, Page 1036-1049, March 2024.
The authors examined the biodegradation of chloroethene compounds under microoxic conditions. The results indicated that partial reductive and cometabolic biodegradation of chloroethene compounds occurred concurrently. The findings of this study have significant implications for further research on chloroethene compound biodegradation, particularly in ...

Frequent concomitant presence of Desulfitobacterium spp. and " Dehalococcoides ” spp. in chloroethene-dechlorinating microbial communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The presence of chloroethene dechlorination activity as well as several bacterial genera containing mainly organohalide-respiring members was investigated in 34 environmental samples from 18 different sites.
