Abstract

The ε-caprolactum-utilizing bacteria were searched. Among 40 authentic strains stored in the IAM Culture Collection, only one strain, Pseudomonas ovalis IAM 1002, was found to utilize ε-caprolactam as a sole sourse of carbon and nitrogen. From the polluted water lines of the Nylon 6 manufacturing plant 11 strains of this nature were also isolated and identified. Various characteristics of these bacteria are described. © 1967, Applied Microbiology, Molecular and Cellular Biosciences Research Foundation. All rights reserved.
