In this study new bacteria were isolated that degrade triethylamine and ethyl acrylate. These two common industrial waste products are extremely annoying due to their exceedingly bad odour. Numerous environmental samples were collected from various sources for the screening process. Several strains were isolated and the two bacterial strains demonstrating the most efficient degradation of each odorous compound were chosen for further analysis in this study: RA1 and RA2 for triethylamine; 2C and 2Cbei for ethyl acrylate. The strains were identified as Pseudomonas citronellolis (RA1), Mycobacterium diernhoferi (RA2) and Defluvibacter lusatiensis (2C and 2Cbei). All four strains completely degraded the target compounds. The mechanisms of degradation were determined, and new degradation pathways were proposed.
