Cell-free preparation of Clostridium sphenoides degraded the insecticide lindane, the gamma-isomer of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexachlorocyclohexane, to the gamma-isomer of 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-1-cyclohexene. The activity appeared to be associated with the membrane fraction and required reduced glutathione. The tetrachlorocy-clohexene intermediate was further metabolized by the membrane fraction to unknown substances.
无细胞制备的蝶形梭菌可将杀虫剂林丹（1,2,3,4,5,6 - 六氯环己烷的γ - 异构体）降解为3,4,5,6 - 四氯 - 1 - 环己烯的γ - 异构体。该活性似乎与膜部分相关，且需要还原型谷胱甘肽。四氯环己烯中间体被膜部分进一步代谢为未知物质。
