The breakdown of dieldrin, one of the most persistent of the chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides, by a number of different microorganisms has been reported in recent years. Bacteria known to degrade dieldrin to several metabolites are Pseudomonas melophthora, a symbiote of the apple maggot (2), other Pseudomonas sp., and several Bacillus sp., isolated from dieldrin contaminated soils as well as the fungus, Trichoderma viride (4). Mucor alternans, another soil fungus, showed twenty-six percent breakdown of the compound in two days, but no metabolites were identified (i).Attempts have been made to understand the possible detoxification of dieldrin through the identification of some of these metabolites. Four strains of Trichoderma viride, closely related taxonomically to Trichoderma konin $ i, were found to hydrolyze this insecticide to 6, 7-trans-dihydroxydihydroaldrin (5). This degradation product was also produced from dieldrin by the bacterium, Aerobacter aerogenes (9). Several metabolites were identified from a soll Pseudomonas sp.(6). Further studies with this bacterium demonstrated no evolution of radioactivity from the dieldrin isotope labeled on the chlorinated carbons. This Pseudomonas sp. apparently degraded the nonchlorinated segment of the dieldrin molecule and not the chlorinated carbon ring.
