Aspergillus niger (AG-1) metabolized dimethylterephthalate through monomethylterephthalate, terephthalate and protocatechuate. Degradation of dimethylterephthalate was followed by extraction of residual dimethylterephthalate from the spent medium. The quantitative UV analysis showed that 58% of the dimethylterephthalate supplement was taken up in 144
