title: [Biological oxidation of a sulfur atom in single-carbon and organic compounds].
abstract: Oxidation of sulphur of various natural and artificial sulphur-containing organic compounds by macro- and microorganisms is reviewed. It includes data on microbial oxidation of volatile organic sulphides, oxidation of CNS-, cystine and thiophenes as natural S-compounds and biological S-oxidation of xenobiotics.
