Co-metabolic degradation of chlorobenzene by the fluorobenzene degrading wild strain Labrys portucalensis

Due to the widespread use of chlorobenzene (CB), environmental contamination with this compound is a major concern. A previously isolated bacterium named Labrys portucalensis (strain F11), that is able to use fluorobenzene (FB) as sole carbon and energy source, was tested for its capability to degra...
