Biodegradation of diethylketone by Penicillium sp. and Alternaria sp.: a comparative study biodegradation of diethylketone by fungi

Two contaminating fungi were isolated from a bioreactor containing diethylketone and Streptococcus equisimilis, subsequently characterized at molecular level and identified as belonging to the Alternaria and Penicillium genera. The ability of these fungi to biodegrade DEK is evaluated. The kinetic p...
