Isolation and identification of A3 -chloropropionic acid (3CP) degrading Aspergillus Aculeatus strain MBS 179

The halogenated organic compounds which are used in agricultures and industries consider as xenobiotics. They cause the major group of environmental pollutions. They are potential toxicity and carcinogenicity effect and they pose health risks to humans and animals. In this study, the main objectives...
