The MC-LTH11 thoroughly degraded MC-RR and MC-LR with the initial concentration of 37.13 mg/L and 18.49 mg /L respectively in the medium containing crude microcystins extract within 6 d.The degradation rates were affected by temperature pH initial MCs concentration and the kinds of media. Additionally the bacterial strain MC-LTH11 also degraded thoroughly microcystins in the water body of Lake Taihu within 1 d.These results suggest that the Stenotrophomonas sp.MC-LTH11 has the capacity to bioremediate water bodies contaminated by microcystins and may contribute to the degradation of microcystins after the outbreak of harmful cyanobacterial blooms in Lake Taihu.展开更多
