Application

Application Comment Organism
additional information both (R,S)-(-)-ephedrine and (S,S)-(+)-pseudoephedrine are constituents of various over-the-counter (OTC) drugs and are also used as decongestants and stimulants. Arthrobacter sp. TS-15 and its isolated ephedrine-oxidizing enzymes have potential for use in decontamination and synthetic applications Arthrobacter sp. TS-15

additional information the Gram-positive soil bacterium Arthrobacter sp. strain TS-15 (DSM 32400) is capable of metabolizing all isomers of ephedrine as a sole source of carbon and energy. (S,S)-(+)-pseudoephedrine is consumed within the shortest time period (half-life of approx. 6.3 h) and is accompanied by the fastest culture growth (generation time of approximately 4.4 h) Arthrobacter sp.
