Recovery of 14C after 57 days of incubation by pure cultures grown on naphthalene and nitratea
| Culture | 14CO2 (%) | 14C recovered in biomass (%) | Soluble 14C metabolites (%) | Hexane extractable 14C (includes naphthalene) (%) | Total 14C recovered (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NAP-3-1 | 15 ± 5 | 29 ± 2 | 3 ± 0.3 | 11 ± 1 | 57 ± 8 |
| NAP-4 | 12 ± 4 | 43 ± 8 | 4 ± 0.1 | 32 ± 4 | 91 ± 16 |
Average of duplicates ± the SEM. The percentage of the 14C activity was measured at the start of the experiment.
