TL;DR: The yield of parathion hydrolase activity/ℓ of fermentation broth per hour was improved 22 fold by growing the pure culture on an industrial meat extract medium instead of the mixed culture on parathions.
Abstract: A mixed bacterial culture which was obtained in a previous enrichment grew on parathion, an organophosphate insecticide, as a sole carbon and energy source. A cell-free enzyme preparation from this culture detoxified by hydrolysis eight commercially used organophosphate insecticides.
