RESUMO
Difficulties inherent in working with anaerobic microorganisms and mixed cultures have hampered efforts to detect and identify metabolites of anaerobic degradation of monoaromatic compounds. Isotope-trapping experiments and analysis using a high-performance liquid chromatograph equipped with a flow-through radioactivity detector were used to detect very low concentrations of metabolites. Data obtained by this method suggest that toluene was degraded via methyl hydroxylation by a mixed methanogenic culture.
