RESUMO
Incubation of racemic mixtures of dl-(±)-nicotine with Pseudomonas putida resulted in a complete stereoselective degradation of the l-(−) isomer. Unnatural d-(+)-nicotine, which is of pharmacological interest for stereochemical studies of various nicotine-responsive systems, was not affected by the bacterium and was recovered by extraction.
