Biotransformation of Naphthalene by Aspergillus ochraceus
Subscribe/Renew Journal
In biotransformation there is addition, deletion, substitution and hydroxylation reaction takes place by phase I enzymatic reaction while conjugation reaction take place in phase II enzymatic reaction. Most enzymatic reaction carried in liver tissue of animal and also in lung, kidney, skin and intestine to less extent. Microorganisms have ability to modify chemically a wide verity of organic compounds. These change are called biological or microbial transformation or more generally bioconversion. Naphthalene is a simplest aromatic hydrocarbon in nature. Polycyclic compounds are environmental pollutants due to their toxic mutagenic and carcinogenic properties. Bitransformation of Naphpthalene by Aspergillus ochraceus occurs.
