Establishment of microbial model communities capable of removing trace organic chemicals for biotransformation mechanisms research

Abstract Background Removal of trace organic chemicals (TOrCs) in aquatic environments has been intensively studied.Some members of natural microbial communities play a vital role in transforming chemical contaminants, however, complex microbial interactions impede us from gaining adequate understanding of TOrC biotransformation mechanisms.To simpl
