Bio-removal of Nitroaromatic Compounds

Nitroaromatic compounds are widely used in the production of explosives, pesticides, plastics, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and petroleum products and are mutagenic, carcinogenic and highly stable and therefore pose an ever present and dangerious contaminant in the environment (Ye et al., 2004). Because many bacteria able to process these compounds are very specific, current research in the bioremediation of nitroaromatics is looking towards engineering novel metabolic pathways in bacteria to degrade a wide range of these pollutants (Kulkarni et al., 2007).
