Microbial reductive dehalogenation of polychlorinated biphenyls [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2000
Under anaerobic conditions, microbial reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) occurs in soils and aquatic sediments. In contrast to dechlorination of supplemented single congeners for which frequently ortho dechlorination has been observed, reductive dechlorination mainly attacks meta and/or para chlorines of PCB mixtures in ...

Microbial reductive dehalogenation [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1992
A wide variety of compounds can be biodegraded via reductive removal of halogen substituents. This process can degrade toxic pollutants, some of which are not known to be biodegraded by any other means. Reductive dehalogenation of aromatic compounds has been found primarily in undefined, syntrophic anaerobic communities.

Reductive Cytochrome P450 Reactions and Their Potential Role in Bioremediation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Cytochrome P450 enzymes, or P450s, are haem monooxygenases renowned for their ability to insert one atom from molecular oxygen into an exceptionally broad range of substrates while reducing the other atom to water. However, some substrates including many

Reductive dehalogenation as a respiratory process [PDF]

open access: yesAntonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1994
Anaerobic bacteria can reductively dehalogenate aliphatic and aromatic halogenated compounds in a respiratory process. Only a few of these bacteria have been isolated in pure cultures. However, long acclimation periods, substrate specificity, high dehalogenation rates, and the possibility to enrich for the dehalogenation activity by subcultivation in ...

Transformation of 1,1,1-trichloroethane in an anaerobic packed-bed reactor at various concentrations of 1,1,1-trichloroethane, acetate and sulfate [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Biotransformation of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (CH3CCl3) was observed in an anaerobic packed-bed reactor under conditions of both sulfate reduction and methanogenesis. Acetate (1 mM) served as an electron donor.

The BhbA Enzyme Assay

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2014
Reductive dehalogenation has been found primarily in anaerobic communities and is originally thought to rarely occur in aerobes. A reductive dehalogenase (BhbA) was characterized from an aerobic strain of Comamonas sp.

Beyond n-dopants for organic semiconductors: use of bibenzo[d]imidazoles in UV-promoted dehalogenation reactions of organic halides

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2023
2,2’-Bis(4-dimethylaminophenyl)- and 2,2'-dicyclohexyl-1,1',3,3'-tetramethyl-2,2',3,3'-tetrahydro-2,2'-bibenzo[d]imidazole ((N-DMBI)2 and (Cyc-DMBI)2) are quite strong reductants with effective potentials of ca.
