During the dechlorination experiments the second- generation cultures were fed
the same carbon source on which they had previously been enriched. The
acetone-fed cultures received 200 mg of acetone once, at the time of inoculation.

However, the results of several studies provide some insight into methods that
might be used to enrich PCB-dechlorinating populations and might eventually
lead to isolation of PCB-dechlorinating strains. Boyle et al. (1993) described a ...

(1993), might provide a means of enriching a specific PCB-dechlorinating
population. This would be consistent with the hypothesis that PCBs can act as
electron acceptors (Brown et al. , 1987b; Quensen et al. , 1988) and can therefore
act as a ...
