N2  - Biodegradation of endosulfan isomers in soil?applied and flask?coated conditions was studied, by an isolated bacterial coculture. The degradation in soil?applied form was 20?30% slower than in flask?coated condition. Addition of a biosurfactant, isolated from Bacillus subtilis MTCC 1427, enhanced the rate of biodegradation by 30?45% in both the conditions. It also mobilized the residual endosulfan towards biodegradation, that otherwise remains undegraded.
