This invention relates to the field of
biodegradation, specifically to a liquefied
Serratia marcescens and its application in the degradation of
atrazine. The liquefied
Serratia marcescens was deposited on January 12, 2026, at the China General
Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC), with accession number CGMCC No. 37176. This invention discloses the utilization of...
Serratia liquefaciens A1 degrades
atrazine. This bacterium exhibits a degradation rate of up to 99.19% for
atrazine in water and up to 98.50% for atrazine in soil. The strain of this invention demonstrates strong
biodegradation ability for atrazine, with rapid degradation and high efficiency. It can be used to prepare formulations for degrading atrazine or for remediating atrazine
pollution in the environment. The strain provided by this invention enriches the strain resource
library of atrazine-degrading
bacteria, offering a new option for the degradation of
triazine herbicides and the
bioremediation of polluted environments.
