Figure 3From: Oxidation of dibenzothiophene (DBT) by Serratia marcescens UCP 1549 formed biphenyl as final productMass spectrogram of the metabolite formed in the degradation of 2 mM of dibenzothiophene DBT by S erratia marcescens UCP (1549) at 20°C. Transformation of biphenyl (m/z = 154). (A) - conversion in 90% of biphenyl to 11.3 min for 16 hours of fermentation, (B) - 100% of biphenyl in 24 hours of fermentation, (C) - 100% of biphenyl in 144 hours of fermentation.Back to article page
