Abstract

Substrate activity for seven bacterial strains isolated from three industrial ecotopes (Ufa city) towards the phenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,5-dichlorophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, 4-chloro-, 2,4-dichloro-, and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acids was assessed. Since none of the isolates could use dichlorophenols, while almost all strains grew on 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, it can be assumed that for the degradation potential of strains, the spatial structure of the substrate is more important than the amount and position of chlorine. Assessment of the strains growth on chlorophenoxyacetic acids also did not reveal a significant correlation between the complexity of the substrate for the ones and the number and position of chlorine substituents.
