1,2,5,6,9,10-Hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs) are brominated flame retardants causing serious environmental pollution. HBCDs in the environment could be transformed to various products. Identification of transformation products has been performed using various mass-spectrometric techniques. However, bacterial transformation of HBCDs yielding low-level products was not well studied. In this paper, aRhodococcusstrain stu-38 which could stereoselectively transform HBCDs in mineral salt medium, seawater, and growth medium was isolated. Seven potential biotransformation products of HBCDs were identified by using GC–MS. These products, including brominated alkenes, dibromocyclododecadiene and bromocyclododecatriene; brominated alkenols, bromocyclododecadienol and bromocyclododecatrienol; fully debrominated compounds, cyclododecadiendiol, 1,2-epoxy-5,9-cyclododecadiene, and cyclododecadienol, were presented in rather low level which could lead to false negative results. The low-level transformation products should not be ignored because their toxicity was less assessment. This research highlighted identification of the low-level transformation products to reveal the complicated stereoselective biotransformation of HBCDs.
