Mineralization of 4-fluorocinnamic acid by a Rhodococcus strain

A bacterial strain capable of aerobic degradation of 4-fluorocinnamic acid (4-FCA) as the sole source of carbon and energy was isolated from a biofilm reactor operating for the treatment of 2-fluorophenol. The organism, designated as strain S2, was identified by 16S rRNA gene analysis as a member of...
