Catheter-related bacteremia due to Pseudomonas paucimobilis has been reported in two patients with cancer-associated neutropenia (25). This organism has rarely been implicated in community-acquired and nosocomial infections. Both patients had been undergoing intensive chemotherapy, and both required removal of the catheter to eradicate the infection.

An elimination reaction is apparently one of the steps in the degradation of y-hexachloro[fleece] cyclohexane from which pentachlorobenzene (Tu 1976) or y-2,3,4,6-tetrachlorocyclohex-l-ene may be formed (Jagnow et al. 1977) (Figure 6.64). The formation of both 2,5-dichlorophenol and 2,4,5-trichlo-rophenol during the aerobic degradation of y- exa.ch om[aaaeee]cyclohexane by Pseudomonas paucimobilis presumably occurs by comparable elimination reactions (Senoo and Wada 1989) and further details of the transformation that produces also 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene have been provided (Nagasawa et...

Bacteria vary considerably in their capacity to degrade a range of PAHs. Some degrade only the more readily degradable naphthalene and phenanthrene, but phenanthrene, pyrene, and fluoranthene do not seem to be uniformly recalcitrant (Chapter 6, Section 6.2.3). Pseudomonas paucimobilis strain EPA 505 can... 

The aerobic degradation of y-hexachloro[flflaeee] cyclohexane (HCH) has been accomplished with a strain of Pseudomonas paucimobilis strain UT26 (Nagasawa et al. 1993), and involves a complex chain of elimination, hydrolytic displacement of chlorine, and ring fission reactions (Chapter 6, Sections...
