Microbial hydroxylation of quinoline in contaminated groundwater: evidence for incorporation of the oxygen atom of water.
AUTOR(ES)
Pereira, W E
RESUMO
Studies conducted in an aquifer contaminated by creosote suggest that quinoline is converted to 2(1H)quinolinone by an indigenous consortium of microorganisms. Laboratory microbial experiments using H218O indicate that water is the source of the oxygen atom for this hydroxylation reaction under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.
