Abstract

A microorganism degrading 2,4-dichlorophenol isolated from an aeration pond of the Baikal Pulp and Paper Mill was identified as Bacillus cereus BIP507 based on morphological and physiological characters as well as 16S rDNA sequencing. This microorganism proved able to degrade high 2,4-dichlorophenol concentrations (up to 560 μM).
