Application

Application Comment Organism
agriculture simultaneous expression of carboxylesterase B1 and organophosphorus hydrolase EC 3.1.8.1 in Escherichia coli and use of vacuum dried cells for decontamination of vegetables sprayed with organophosphate pesticides. Activities of enzymes remain stable in dried cells for at least 5 months. Crude enzymes in 50 mM citrate-phosphate buffer are able to degrade 97% of the organophosphates sprayed on cabbage to virtually nontoxic products Culex sp.
