Abstrakt: Pseudomonas gladioli was isolated by an enrichment culture technique using limonene as the sole source of carbon. Fermentations were conducted for 4-10 days in shake flasks at 25°C using a pH 6.5 mineral salts medium and 1.0% (+)-limonene. Major conversion products were identified as (+)-α-terpineol and (+)-perillic acid. Quantitative analysis of α-terpineol and perillic acid during the fermentation revealed that α-terpineol was resistant to further degradation by the bacterium, while perillic acid was readily degraded.
