AB  - The effects of three aromatic compounds, p-cresol, 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP), and 
      2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP), on cell growth and pentachlorophenol (PCP) 
      degradation bya Flavobacterium species were investigated. While p-cresol was not 
      degraded by this bacterium, DCP and TCP were simultaneously degraded with PCP. 
      Both DCP and TCP lowered cell growth and PCP degradation rate. Cell growth was 
      modeled by cell death, because p-cresol, DCP, and TCP were toxic to the organism. 
      A new model was used to predict cell death rate in a mixture of two toxic 
      compounds from the cell death kinetics for each individual compound. PCP 
      degradation rates were modeled by conventional inhibition models, but only over a 
      small concentration range for the secondary toxic compound. However, a new 
      empirical model described PCP degradation over a wider concentration range of the 
      secondary toxic compound. (c) 1995 John Wiley & Sons Inc.
