Lactobacillus casei TISTR 1500 possesses cytoplasmic azoreductase, and converts methyl orange to N,N-dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine and 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid. In culture growth, the strain completely degraded methyl orange at 200 mg/l, even though the pH value was lower than 4. The decolorization...
