Biodegradation of phenylmercuric acetate by mercury-resistant bacteria.

J D Nelson, W Blair, F E Brinckman, R R Colwell, W P Iverson.   

Abstract

Selected cultures of mercury-resistant bacteria degrade the fungicide-slimicide phenylmercuric acetate. By means of a closed system incorporating a flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometer and a vapor phase chromatograph, it was demonstrated that elemental mercury vapor and benzene were products of phenylmercuric acetate degradation.
