Microbial hydrocarbon co-oxidation. II. Use of ion-exchange resins. 1969

R L Raymond, and V W Jamison, and J O Hudson

Anion-exchange resins, a weakly basic polystyrene-polyamine type and a macro-reticular type, IR-45 and IRA-93, respectively, were shown to significantly increase yields of acidic products in co-oxidation systems. p-Toluic, 2,3-dihydroxy-p-toluic, and alpha,alpha-cis,cis dimethylmuconic acids, resulting from the oxidation of p-xylene by three cultures of Nocardia, accumulated on the resin in shaken flasks or agar plates during the cultivation. Final product concentration increased with increasing resin concentration. Mineral balances were not affected if the resin was properly conditioned before use.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007475 Ion Exchange Resins High molecular weight, insoluble polymers which contain functional groups that are capable of undergoing exchange reactions (ION EXCHANGE) with either cations or anions. Ion Exchange Resin,Exchange Resin, Ion,Exchange Resins, Ion,Resin, Ion Exchange,Resins, Ion Exchange
D009615 Nocardia A genus of gram-positive, aerobic bacteria whose species are widely distributed and are abundant in soil. Some strains are pathogenic opportunists for humans and animals. Micropolyspora
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D000143 Acids Chemical compounds which yield hydrogen ions or protons when dissolved in water, whose hydrogen can be replaced by metals or basic radicals, or which react with bases to form salts and water (neutralization). An extension of the term includes substances dissolved in media other than water. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) Acid
D014992 Xylenes A family of isomeric, colorless aromatic hydrocarbon liquids, that contain the general formula C6H4(CH3)2. They are produced by the destructive distillation of coal or by the catalytic reforming of petroleum naphthenic fractions. (From McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 5th ed) Dimethylbenzenes,Xylene
