    Aerobic biotransformation of 2,4-dinitroanisole in soil and soil Bacillus sp.

    2,4-Dinitroanisole (DNAN) is a low sensitive melt-cast chemical being tested by the Military Industry as a replacement for 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in explosive formulations. Little is known about the fate ...
