| Abstract | The relationship between the selectivity of a particular polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) congener and its biodegradability under the same concentration, especially by Enterobacter sp. LY402, is less well studied. To measure congener selectivity of Enterobacter sp. LY402, several influencing factors were studied. The results showed LY402 effectively degraded coplanar 3,4,3′,4′-chlorobiphenyl (CB) at a concentration of 0.05 μM, but not 0.5 μM. The degradation rates of 2,4,5,2′,3′-CB and 2,4,5,2′,4′,5′-CB were increased significantly when the sample constituents were changed from 12 to 5 congeners or to one congener. This indicated that bioremediation of individual congener was affected by other congeners present in the mixture. Moreover, for PCBs containing one chlorine on each phenyl ring, the reactivity preference of LY402 was 2,2′-CB ≥ 3,3′-CB ≫ 4,4′-CB. For two ortho chlorines congeners of PCBs, 2,2′-CB was degraded faster than 2,6-CB. Although 2,6-CB and 4,4′-CB were poorly degraded, the addition of one (i.e., 2,4,4′-CB and 2,6,3′-CB) or two more chlorines (i.e., 2,4,2′,4′-CB) on the phenyl ring significantly increased their biodegradability. In addition, comparing the two congeners of ortho-meta-chlorinated biphenyl, 2,3,2′,3′-CB with neighbor meta chlorines was degraded slower than 2,5,2′,5′-CB with interval meta chlorines. All these indicated that the transformation rates of PCBs were not consistent with the number of chlorines, and PCBs containing the same numbers of chlorines but at different positions also resulted in different conversions. In principle, the extents of effect caused by the position of chlorine substituents on the degradation of PCBs by LY402 were ortho- > meta- > para-CB. In conclusion, the congener selectivity of LY402 was determined by many factors, including the composition of the congeners, their concentrations in the mixture and location and number of chlorine substituents on the phenyl rings. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
