Micro-organism which can desulphurise benzothiophenes

摘要

The present invention provides a micro-organism which can desulphurise benzothiophenes and a micro-organism which can desulphurise both venzothiophenes and dibenzothiophenes and a process for the production of such organisms. Such organisms and/or information derived from them can be used in devising a biocatalyst for desulplhurisation of petrochemicals.
