Abstract
The Acinetobacter calcoaceticusstrain TM-31 has been isolated from a microbial assemblage of a pilot plant that purifies waste water polluted with mineral oil. This strain is capable of efficient degradation of components of mineral oil (alkanes, isoalkanes, and alkyl residues of the naphthene and arene fraction). The strain bears stably inherited plasmids of sizes 120, 9, and 8 kb, which can be transferred into plasmid-free cells of the parental strain and into bacteria of the genusPseudomonasand ensure the degradation of hexadecane and mineral oil.
