Abstract
19 Currently, biological methods of degradation of manmade polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are becoming increasingly important in connection with the selection of new efficient PCB degrading strains. The most successful studies in the field of biodegrada tion of PCBs are associated with the use of low chlo rinated PCB congeners [1, 2]. It has been found that the biodegradability of PCB congeners increases with decreasing number of chlorine atoms in the initial sub strates. At the same time, interest persists in the search for surfactants capable of transferring more hydropho bic medium and high chlorinated PCB congeners into an aqueous medium in order to create stable emulsions available for efficient operation of bacterial strains [3, 4].
