Characterization of bacterial populations of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) contaminated soils and isolation of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain with TNT denitration activities

2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) is a toxic and recalcitrant pollutant contaminating soils and groundwater. Therefore, characterization of microbial populations of TNT-contaminated soils and isolation of bacteria degrading this pollutant are of primordial importance. Comparison of hybridizations of 16S r...
