Hodrova Blanka, Marounek M.: Sensitivity of Anaerobic Rumen Fungi to Pentachlorophenol and Pentachlorobiphenyl
Anaerobic fungi form an integral component of the rumen cellulose-digesting microbial population, which is presumably more sensitive to toxic substances than other groups of microorganisms
This work presents results on the sensitivity of rumen fungi from different ruminants to pentachlorophenol and pentachlorobiphenyl
Summary
Hodrova Blanka, Marounek M.: Sensitivity of Anaerobic Rumen Fungi to Pentachlorophenol and Pentachlorobiphenyl. Yokoyama et al (1988) examined the sensitivity of fourteen rumen bacterial species to PCP in pure cultures. The effect of PCBs on rumen microorganisms was not investigated probably due their lower acute toxicity. The effect of PCP and PCBs on rumen anaerobic fungi was not studied either.
