Development of a GFP‐based biosensor for detecting the bioavailability and biodegradation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)

Two whole‐cell biosensors were constructed to detect the in situ biodegradation of polychlorinated biphenyl by chromosomal insertion of a mini‐Tn5‐Kmr‐Pm::gfp[mut3]‐T0‐T1 construct into P. fluorescens. In vitro tests showed that the expression of the Pm promoter depended on the growth phase of the...
