Type: aerobic<br />

Inoculum: other: soil bacterium (aerobic. gram-negative)<br />

Concentration: 671 ug/1<br />

Results: Degradation: >70% after 28 day; 2% degradation after 4 hours related to oxygen<br />

uptake.<br />

Remark: The bacterium was isolated from soil enriched with triethylene <strong>glycol</strong>. Cells to be<br />

assayed for oxidative activity were cultured at 30 degree C on a shaker for 72 to<br />

96 hr in basal medium.<br />
