Pseudomonas putida BG1 was isolated from soil by enrichment with p-toluate and selection for growth with p-xylene. Other hydrocarbons that served as growth substrates were toluene, m-xylene, 3-ethyltoluene, and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene. The enzymes responsible for growth on these substrates are encoded

This study describes the implementation of a passive sampling-based method followed by thermal desorption gas-chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS) for the monitoring of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in industrial atmospheres. However, in order to employ passive sampling as a reliable sampling technique
