Nitroaromatic Compounds, from Synthesis to Biodegradation
Kou San Ju,Rebecca E. Parales +1 more
TL;DR: This review provides an overview of the synthesis of both man-made and biogenic nitroaromatic compounds, the bacteria that have been identified to grow on and completely mineralize nitrobiotic compounds, and the pathways that are present in these strains.

MINIREVIEWS Bacterial Chemotaxis toward Environmental Pollutants: Role in Bioremediation†
Gunjan Pandey,Rakesh K. Jain +1 more
TL;DR: Recently, recent discoveries in bacterial chemotaxis toward pollutants and how they may be explored and exploited for bioremediation applications have been described in this article, where some microorganisms with the chemotactic ability toward different xenobiotic compounds have been isolated and characterized.

Microbial diversity: application of microorganisms for the biodegradation of xenobiotics
Rakesh K. Jain,M Kapur,S Labana +2 more
TL;DR: This is the first study demonstrating that the cleavage reaction is also enzyme-catalyzed in addition to the enzymatic kinase activity of multifunctional NdK, and demonstrates a molecular mechanism that could be the basis for assessing in situ DNA damage by secretory mNdK.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial degradation of nitrophenols and their derivatives.
TL;DR: This review intends to provide an overview of bacterial degradation of nitrophenols (NPs) and their derivatives by focusing on biochemical and genetic characterization and bioremediation and chemotaxis correlated with biodegradation of NPs.

Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology
TL;DR: BCL3 and Sheehy cite Bergey's manual of determinative bacteriology of which systematic bacteriology, first edition, is an expansion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemotaxis in bacteria.
TL;DR: These results show that E. coli is chemotactic toward oxygen and energy sources such as galactose, glucose, aspartic acid, threonine, or serine and that chemotaxis allows bacteria to find that environment which provides them with the greatest supply of energy.
Journal Article
Chemotaxis in bacteria.
TL;DR: Motile Escherichia coli placed at one end of a capillary tube containing an energy source and oxygen migrate out into the tube in one or two bands, which can also be demonstrated by photography, microscopy, and densitometry and by assaying for bacteria throughout the tube as discussed by the authors.

Biodegradation of Nitroaromatic Compounds
TL;DR: A number of microbial systems capable of transforming or biodegrading nitroaromatic compounds, including anaerobic bacteria and fungi, and a number of nitrobaromatic compounds can serve as growth substrates for aerobic bacteria, are revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A method for measuring chemotaxis and use of the method to determine optimum conditions for chemotaxis by Escherichia coli.
TL;DR: Rate of bacterial accumulation in capillaries and a concentration-response curve for l-aspartate taxis are presented and interpreted, and the effect of bacterial concentration is reported.
