Microbial degradation of 17β -estradiol and 17α -ethinylestradiol followed by a validated HPLC-DAD method

This work aimed at studying the biodegradation of two estrogens, 17agr -estradiol (E2) and 17β -ethinylestradiol (EE2), and their potential metabolism to estrone (E1) by microbial consortia. The biodegradation studies were followed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Diode Array Detector (HPLC...
