Biodegradation of phenol by a highly tolerant strain Rhodococcus ruber C1: Biochemical characterization and comparative genome analysis

A novel phenol-degrading strain was isolated and identified as Rhodococcus ruber C1. The degradation analysis shows that 1806 mg/L of phenol can be completely degraded by strain C1 within 38 h, and the maximum specific growth rate (μmax=1.527 h−1) and maximum specific phenol degradation rate (qmax=3...
