Biodegradation and utilization of dimethylformamide by biofilm forming Paracoccus sp. strains MKU1 and MKU2

[Display omitted] •Paracoccus sp. MKU1 and MKU2 could use DMF as sole carbon and nitrogen source.•MKU1 and MKU2 could form biofilm during DMF utilization.•MKU1 and MKU2 degrade 55% and 46% of the initially supplied DMF (1% v/v).•Biofilm formation is highest with acetate during DMF utilization by Par...
