Twenty isolates representing nine bacterial genera were obtained from enrichment cultures and were shown to cometabolize one or more of 22 substituted benzoates. One of the isolates, an Arthrobacter sp., cometabolized m-chlorobenzoate to a product identified as 4-chlorocatechol by thin-layer chromatography and ultraviolet and infrared spectroscopy. The data indicate that cometabolism by the arthrobacter results from the formation of products by its benzoate-oxiding enzyme system that are not acted upon by the catechol-metabolizing enzymes of the bacterium.
从富集培养物中获得了代表9个细菌属的20个分离株,结果表明它们能共代谢22种取代苯甲酸中的一种或多种。其中一个分离株,节杆菌属的一种,通过薄层色谱法、紫外光谱法和红外光谱法将间氯苯甲酸共代谢为一种鉴定为4-氯邻苯二酚的产物。数据表明,节杆菌的共代谢是由其苯甲酸氧化酶系统形成的产物导致的,而该细菌的邻苯二酚代谢酶对这些产物不起作用。
