GENETICS AND BIOCHEMISTRY OF DEHALOGENATING ENZYMES [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Microorganisms that can utilize halogenated compounds as a growth substrate generally produce enzymes whose function is carbon-halogen bond cleavage. Based on substrate range, reaction type and gene sequences, the dehalogenating enzymes can be classified

A Three‐Step Route to Functionalized Pyrrole‐2,5‐Dicarboxylic Acids from Galactaric Acid

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Galactaric acid (GalA) has been used as substrate for a library of N‐substituted pyrrole‐2,5‐dicarboxylic acids (PDCAs). Existing routes to N‐substituted PDCAs require many steps or lack product isolation. We present a simple, scalable three‐step synthesis from GalA via a 2‐pyrone salt, giving isolated PDCA derivatives in high yield without ...

Biological Degradation of Phthalates: From Bioremediation to Plastic Waste Valorization

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
Phthalic acid isomers play a key role in the plastics industry, but pose significant environmental and health concerns. This review explores the microbial biodegradation of phthalates and their esters, focusing on bacterial enzymes, catabolic pathways, and cellular uptake mechanisms of phthalates.

Covalent Immobilization of Laccase on Mesoporous Bismuth Silicate for High‐Performance Biodegradation of Contaminants

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 10, 1 April 2026.
Myceliophthora thermophila laccase covalently immobilized on bismuth silicate (BiSi‐ext) achieved synergistic adsorption–biodegradation of Tectilon Blue 4R‐01 and ibuprofen. The biocatalyst showed enhanced stability, reusability, and rapid pollutant removal via expanded active‐site accessibility, enabling efficient, eco‐friendly wastewater remediation.

Peracetic Acid Oxidation of Lignin Model Compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 1966
Peracetic acid is being used to a limited extent as a bleaching agent for newsprint (1), and to a lesser extent, as a pulping agent, at least at the laboratory level (2). Haas, Schoch, and Ströle (3) report that peracetic acid is an excellent reagent for
