BAM concentrations determined by a quantitative ELISA analysis following dichlobenil mineralization experiments with Aminobacter sp. strain MSH1
| Initial concn of DCB | Concn of BAM (nM)a | Amt of DCB accumulated as BAM (%b) |
|---|---|---|
| 0.0 | 0.00 | 0.000 |
| 8.7 nM | 0.00 | 0.000 |
| 590.1 nM | 0.00 | 0.000 |
| 5.8 μM | 0.22 (±0.06) | 0.004 (±0.001) |
| 58.1 μM | 3.34 (±0.60) | 0.006 (±0.001) |
a
Means and standard deviations (given in parentheses) of BAM concentrations in triplicate flasks after the 10-day DCB mineralization presented in Fig. 2B. Initial cell density was 4 × 106 ml−1.
b
Expressed as a percentage of added DCB.
