 and 2WASP (fungal strain) were screened from nine microbial isolates isolated from decayed yellow orange citrus fruits (Citrus reticulata), collected from distant locations in Navi Mumbai. The ability of these strains to biotransform alpha pinene was examined and the products obtained were identified by GC-MS. The main biotransformation products identified with 24B1isolate were α -terpineol, verbenol, verbenone and sobrerol and the products identified with 2WASP are verbenol, verbenone and myrtenol.&picture=http://www.aascit.org/aascit/decorators/img/journal/903.jpg)

The objective of the present work was to biotransform the terpenic substrate alpha pinene to produce valuable aromatic chemicals. By means of testing the ability of resistance to monoterpenic substrates limonene and alpha pinene, two microbial strains coded as 24B1 (bacterial strain) and 2WASP (fungal strain) were screened from nine microbial isolates isolated from decayed yellow orange citrus fruits (Citrus reticulata), collected from distant locations in Navi Mumbai. The ability of these strains to biotransform alpha pinene was examined and the products obtained were identified by GC-MS. The main biotransformation products identified with 24B1isolate were α -terpineol, verbenol, verbenone and sobrerol and the products identified with 2WASP are verbenol, verbenone and myrtenol.
