Microbial degradation of quinoline: Kinetic studies with Comamonas acidovorans DSM 6426.

abstract：:In a previous paper, the overall or macrokinetics of the immobilized glucose oxidase--catalase system has been presented. In this paper a detailed analysis of the interaction of diffusion and reaction in this system will be presented. The mathematical treatment includes two consecutive reactions with two-substrate kin...
