Abstract

The oxidation of biphenyl by Cyanobacterium, Oscillatoria sp., strain JCM was studied. The organism grown photoautotrophically in the presence of biphenyl oxidized biphenyl to form 4-hydroxybiphenyl. The structure of the metabolite was elucidated by ultraviolet and mass spectra and shown to be identical to authentic 4-hydroxybiphenyl. In addition this metabolite had properties identical to 4-hydroxybiphenyl when analyzed by thin-layer and high-pressure liquid chromatography. Experiments with [14C]-biphenyl showed that over a 24 h period the organism oxidized 2.9% of the added biphenyl to ethyl acetate-soluble products.
