Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassesA61L009/00A61L012/10 B01D015/08 C12P001/04 G01D021/02 AbstractMethyl halide contaminants are oxidized in a reaction chamber containing a methylotrophic bacterium through direct oxidation of the methyl halide contaminant. Methyl halides may be used as a disinfectant, with the remnant methyl halide contaminant oxidized through direct oxidation by the methylotrophic bacterium.Other References
