Twenty-two strains of soil bacteria, including representatives of the genera Bacillus, Micromonospora, Mycobacterium, Nocardia, Streptomyces, Thermoactinomyces, and Pseudomonas and 10 unidentified gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped bacteria, were shown to degrade aldrin to its epoxide dieldrin. In every case, the exo-stereoisomer of dieldrin was produced exclusively.
二十二株土壤细菌，包括芽孢杆菌属、小单孢菌属、分枝杆菌属、诺卡氏菌属、链霉菌属、嗜热放线菌属和假单胞菌属的代表菌株，以及10株未鉴定的革兰氏阴性、具鞭毛、杆状细菌，被证明能将艾氏剂降解为其环氧化物狄氏剂。在每种情况下，均只产生狄氏剂的外型立体异构体。
