The biodegradation experiment was carried out in mineral salt medium, containing 5 000 mg/L kraft lignin as only carbon and energy at pH 8.0 and 30℃. Under these conditions, significant reduction in color and lignin content by the strain was observed after incubation for 5 d. The strain attains maximum reduction capability in color （44.6%） and lignin content （39.9%） within 5 d of incubation, and reduced chemical oxygen demand（COD） from initial concentration 7 399 to 3 980 mg/L at maximum reduction level of 46.2% on the 4th day. The total ion chromatograph （TIC） of compounds presented in the chloroform extract of control and bacterial treated samples shows the formation of several lignin-related aromatic compounds including some small molecular lignin fragments, indicating a strong destruction in the lignin structure.展开更多
