Heterocycles are organic compounds that are well-known and distributed in nature; they can be used in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and chemical industries. Heterocycles composed of sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms are harmful toxins and can cause cancers; these substances can persist for years in the environment. One attractive alternative to expensive physical and chemical methods is microbial degradations, which present high potential and low cost, causing minimal environmental impacts. The use of these microorganisms makes use of heterocyclic substances as substrates, removing them efficiently and safely. Some strains of wild and genetically modified microorganisms (bacteria and fungi) have already been used to degrade various pesticides and aromatic compounds. Understanding the biodegradation mechanism of microorganisms will benefit future bioremediation studies, which may prove to be one of the alternatives to solving environmental problems. This review will focus on the microbial degradation of heterocyclic compounds, taking into account the most used techniques and their limitations in future research

“…The quinoline structure is widely present in natural products and drugs, which are renowned for their diverse biological activities such as antibacterial, 1 antimalarial, 2 antitumor, 3 and antituberculosis 4 properties. For example, quinine, also known as cinchona base, extracted from the bark of cinchona trees in the Rubiaceae family, was an early effective drug for treating malaria.…”

“…2,3 Nitrogenous heterocycles exist widely in wastewater from coking, dyes, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, and can have foul or pleasant smells. 4 Among them, indole and quinoline are typical nitrogenous heterocycles in the wastewater environment, with toxicity, carcinogenicity and teratogenicity, and cause serious damage to human health and the ecological environment. 5,6 Therefore, it is of great significance to develop appropriate and high-efficiency photocatalysts to remove nitrogenous heterocycles.…”
