Mechanisms of biodegradation of dibenzoate plasticizers
Proposed mechanism for the formation of 1-hexadecyl benzoate arising from the biodegradation of 1,6-hexanediol dibenzoate by R. rhodochrous in the presence of hexadecane as a co-substrate, including a possible mechanism for the formation of 4- (benzoyloxy)butanoic acid.
Mechanisms of biodegradation of dibenzoate plasticizers
Biodegradation mechanisms were elucidated for three dibenzoate plasticizers: diethylene glycol dibenzoate (D(EG)DB), dipropylene glycol dibenzoate (D(PG)DB), both of which are commercially available, and 1,6-hexanediol dibenzoate, a potential green plasticizer. Degradation studies were done using Rh

Mechanisms of biodegradation of dibenzoate plasticizers.

- What is the biodegradation mechanism of hexanediol dibenzoate?
- Biodegradation mechanisms were elucidated for 1,6-hexanediol dibenzoate and two commercial plasticizers, diethylene glycol dibenzoate (D(EG)DB) and dipropylene glycol dibenzoate (D(PG)DB). Biodegradation of all of these plasticizers was initiated by hydrolysis of one ester bond to release a monobenzoate and benzoic acid.
- Does ether function affect the biodegradation mechanisms of dibenzoate plasticizers?
- The two most important commercial dibenzoate plasticizers, diethylene glycol dibenzoate (D (EG)DB) and dipropylene glycol dibenzoate (D (PG)DB), both contain ether functions. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the ether function on the biodegradation mechanisms of dibenzoate plasticizers.
- Does diethylene glycol dibenzoate biodegrade?
- No articles found. The kinetics of the biodegradation of two commercial plasticizers, diethylene glycol dibenzoate (D (EG)DB) and dipropylene glycol dibenzoate (D (PG)DB), as well as two alternative plasticizers, 1,3-propanediol dibenzoate and 2,2-methyl-propyl-1,3-propanediol dibenzoate, were investigated in an aerated bioreactor.
- Are dibenzoate plasticizers biodegradable?
- Biodegradation mechanisms established for the dibenzoate plasticizers demonstrate that the presence of the ether function leads to significant quantities of toxic metabolites. This, in turn, can be seen to be an important consideration in the design of green plasticizers.
- What is the biodegradation of plasticizers D (EG)DB and D (PG)MB?
- The biodegradation of the commercial plasticizers D (EG)DB and D (PG)DB by the yeast, R. rubra, resulted in the formation of substantial amounts of the metabolites, diethylene glycol monobenzoate (D (EG)MB) or dipropylene glycol monobenzoate (D (PG)MB) (Gartshore et al., 2003).
- Why are monobenzoates biodegraded quickly?
- The rapid biodegradation of monobenzoates released from microbial hydrolysis of alternative dibenzoate plasticizers was attributed to the lack of an ether bond in these compounds.
