Naturally occurring bacteria similar to the methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE)-degrading strain PM1 are present in MTBE-contaminated groundwater
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on methyl tert-butyl ether-contaminated groundwater. The authors report the discovery of bacterial strain discovered in this groundwater which is identical to the native strain PM1, degrading methyl tert-butyl ether, in its ribosomal 16S DNA sequence.
