Metabolism of the environmental contaminant 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (2,6-DMN) by rat liver microsomes and an NADPH-regenerating system led to the formation of three ring oxidation metabolites--2,6-dimethyl-3-naphthol, 2,6-dimethyl-3,4-naphthoquinone, and 3,4-dihydro-3,4-dihydroxy-2,6-dimethylnaphthalene--and one side chain oxidation metabolite--2-hydroxymethyl-6-methylnaphthalene. In addition, one metabolite remained unidentified. Pretreatment of

Flavobacteria that were able to grow on 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (2,6-DMN) were isolated from soil. Most were able to oxidize a broad range of aromatic hydrocarbons after growth on 2,6-DMN at rates comparable to that of the oxidation of 2,6-DMN itself. One
