| Abstract: | Purpose Dimethyl phthalate esters (DMPEs) are a group of plasticizers commonly detected in the environment with potential adverse
human health impact. The degradation of DMPEs by fungal systems has been studied to a limited extent, particularly by yeasts.
In this study, a basidiomycetous yeast Trichosporon DMI-5-1 capable of degrading DMPEs was obtained and the degradation pathways were investigated. |
