Normally it was think that when aniline was biodegraded by microbial,
it will lose its NH2 at first, then the ring broken to form=
CH3CH2OHCH2COCOOH.
But in my research, I found CH3CH2OHCH2CHNH2COOH as intermediate. It seems
aniline will not lost its NH2 under biofilm electrode degradation. I'm not
sure it's a new discovery or just a mistake. Experiment repeated twice.
True or false, who can tell me?
