Catechol biodegradation kinetics using Candida parapsilopsis

Catechol biodegradation kinetics using Candida parapsilopsis

This study evaluated the biodegradation of catechol by a yeast strain of Candida parapsilopsis in standard medium in Erlenmeyer flasks. Results shown that the highest concentration of catechol caused the longer lag period, demonstrating that acclimatized cultures could completely degrade an initial...
