“…These species were capable of degrading the commercial grade MP used in this study, implying the compound used in preparation of this formulation might promote the growth of these bacteria in combination with components of MSM media. Similar studies by Ou, L.T and A. Sharma, 1989, reveals the degradation of methyl parathion by mixed bacterial culture and a Bacillus sp. isolated from different soils.…”

“…In the present study, NF100 was found to carry a plasmid encoding a fenitrothion-hydrolyzing enzyme. The few microorganisms capable of hydrolyzing organophosphorus insecticides can utilize one or more hydrolysis products as carbon or nutrient sources (15)(16)(17). Formation of 4-nitrophenol via hydrolysis of methyl parathion has been reported by several authors (1,4,16,17).…”

“…Studies of microbial degradation are useful in the development of strategies for the detoxification of the insecticides by microorganisms (14). While there have been many reports of isolation and characterization of bacterial species cometabolically hydrolyzing organophosphorus insecticides (3), reports of bacterial species that utilize an insecticide as a sole source of carbon and energy for growth have been limited to date (15)(16)(17). On the other hand, it is well known that plasmids can endow bacterial species with the ability to degrade various man-made organic compounds (18).…”
