Remediation of Hexachloro-1,3-Butadiene Contaminated Groundwater. [PDF]
Aerul şi Apa: Componente ale Mediului, 2019 Hexachloro-1,3-butadiene (HCBD) is an industrial by-product that is produced during the manufacturing of various chlorinated hydrocarbons like vinyl chloride, trichloroethene or tetrachloroethene.

Water Science and Technology, 2022 Complete dechlorination of trichloroethene (TCE) by Dehalococcoides mccartyi is catalyzed by reductive dehalogenases (RDases), which possess cobalamin as the crucial cofactor. However, virtually all D. mccartyi isolated thus far are corrinoid auxotrophs.
