Abstract:A dominant bacterium (LW13) for the degradation of chlorobenzene was selected from maturity sludge in a novel combined bio-filter polluted by chlorobenzene gas. Based on the morphological characteristics observation, physio-biochemical characteristics and 16S rDNA sequence homology analysis, strain LW13 was identified as Lysinibacillus fusiformis. Crude enzyme from the fermentation was extracted and their enzymatic properties were also investigated. Results showed that the degradation enzyme produced by the ba… Show more
