Studies of bacterial transformation of TNT have shown reduction of the nitrogroups to be a ubiquitous activity. Both anaerobic and aerobic bacterial transformations have been studied to find ways to exploit the biochemical incorporation of molecular oxygen or to avoid oxidative polymerizations. This study describes TNT transformation activities of one bioreactor isolate, Clostridium bifermentans strain LJP-1. 25 refs., 4 figs.
