Pseudomonas frederiksbergensis
Pseudomonas frederiksbergensis is a Gram-negative, phenanthrene-degrading bacterium from a coal gasification site in Frederiksberg, Copenhagen, Denmark.[1] It is able to catalyse the asymmetric oxidation of sulfides to give exclusively the R enantiomer.[2] The type strain is DSM 13022.
