Carbon and hydrogen stable isotope fractionation during aerobic bacterial degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons.
TLDR
Different types of initial reactions used by the respective bacterial strains could be linked with certain extents of stable isotope fractionation during substrate degradation.Abstract:
13C/12C and D/H stable isotope fractionation during aerobic degradation was determined for Pseudomonas putida strain mt-2, Pseudomonas putida strain F1, Ralstonia pickettii strain PKO1, and Pseudomonas putida strain NCIB 9816 grown with toluene, xylenes, and naphthalene. Different types of initial reactions used by the respective bacterial strains could be linked with certain extents of stable isotope fractionation during substrate degradation.read more

Stable isotope fractionation analysis as a tool to monitor biodegradation in contaminated acquifers.
TL;DR: Under what circumstances SIFA can be used for a qualitative or even a quantitative assessment of biodegradation in the environment is discussed, and advances in the instrumental development for stable isotope analysis are mentioned if it is important for the understanding of the application.

TL;DR: An alternative scheme to evaluate isotope data is outlined that would enable estimates of position-specific kinetic isotope effects and, thus, allow one to extract mechanistic chemical and biochemical information.

In situ bioremediation of monoaromatic pollutants in groundwater : A review
TL;DR: Results published indicate that in some sites, intrinsic bioremediation can reduce the monoaromatic compounds content of contaminated water to reach standard levels of potable water, however, engineering biOREmediation is faster and more efficient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stable isotope fractionation to investigate natural transformation mechanisms of organic contaminants: principles, prospects and limitations.
TL;DR: This review highlights an additional powerful feature of stable isotope fractionation: the study of environmental transformation mechanisms, and discusses how isotope ratios of individual products evolve in sequential or parallel transformations, and what mechanistic insight they contain.

TL;DR: Saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons are wide-spread in the authors' environment and for many decades were thought to undergo biodegradation only in the presence of free oxygen, but during the past decade, an increasing number of microorganisms have been detected that degradation under strictly anoxic conditions.
