Biodegradation of aromatic pollutants by metalloenzymes: A structural-functional-environmental perspective
2021, Coordination Chemistry ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Aromatic compounds such as phenols are common intermediates for synthesis of chemical products, such as pesticides by halogenation, i.e., halophenols. When released to ground water and migrated into food, they will damage human liver and immune systems [2,3]. In addition, phenoxy radicals are readily produced by the oxidation of halophenols, which will cause carcinogenic and mutagenic effects due to the modification of DNA [4].

2017, Chemical Engineering JournalCitation Excerpt :Their disposal may contaminate soil and water. Because of increasing public health concerns and stricter regulations on treatment and disposal, it becomes more important to develop newer and efficient methods for removing these compounds from wastewaters [1–5]. The reported methods for removing phenolics from wastewaters include activated carbon adsorption [6], microbial degradation [7], chemical oxidation [8], corona discharge [9], enzymatic degradation [10] etc. 4-Chlorophenol (4-CP), 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) have been recognised as priority pollutants by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) since 1976 and by the European Decision 2455/2001/EC [11–14].

Detoxification of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by an indigenous bacterial community
2009, International Biodeterioration and BiodegradationCitation Excerpt :In such a polluted environment it is to be expected that bacterial pre-exposition to toxic compounds facilitates the selection of biodegradative strains. Nevertheless, the presence of TCP tolerant bacteria and the isolation of TCP degraders were also reported in pristine environments (Godoy et al., 1999; Sánchez et al., 2004). This was related by the authors to the presence in the environment of natural chlorinated compounds, whose production by microorganisms, algae, insects, and even mammals was well established in the last years (De Jong et al., 1994; Gribble, 2004; Milliken et al., 2004).
