Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
Several
studies suggest the following mechanism for the microbial degradation
of VC:
VC ----(oxidation by methane-monooxygenase)---->
chloroethylene
oxide -----(rearrangement)------>
chloroacetaldehyde ---------(oxidation)-------->
chloroacetate ---(hydrolytic dehalogenation)--->
glycolate (------> normal cellular metabolism)
