organism: metagenome
description: This culture was originally enriched from contaminated sediment collected from Maryland, U.S.A. It has been maintained in the Edwards laboratory in anaerobic mineral medium since 2007. The purpose was to enrich for a microbial community capable of degrading chlorinated ethanes and ethenes relevant to bioremediation of soil and groundwater. This is a transfer amended with sodium lactate, ethanol and 1,2-trans-dichloroethene capable of step-wise dechlorination to ethene.
