Rhodococcus sp. JDC-11, capable of utilizing di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) as the sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from sewage sludge and confirmed mainly based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The optimum pH, temperature, and agitation rate for DBP degradation by Rhodococcus sp. JDC-11 was 8.0, 30 degrees C, and 175 rpm, respectively. In addition, the effect of glucose concentration on DBP degradation indicated that low concentration of glucose inhibited the degradation of DBP while high concentrations of glucose increased its degradation. Meanwhile, the substrates utilization test showed that JDC-11 could also utilize other phthalates. Furthermore, the major metabolites of DBP degradation were identified as mono-butyl phthalate and phthalic acid by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and the metabolic pathway of DBP degradation by Rhodococcus sp. JDC-11 was tentatively speculated. Using a set of new degenerate primer, partial sequence of the 3, 4-phthalate dioxygenase gene was obtained from the strain. Sequence analysis revealed that the phthalate dioxygenase gene of JDC-11 was highly homologous to the large subunit of phthalate dioxygenase from Rhodococcus coprophilus strain G9.
