Application

Application Comment Organism
environmental protection hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine is widely used for military and commercial purposes due to its high explosive properties. Hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine and its degradation products are toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic to humans and other biological systems. The biotransformation of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine by NAD(P)H nitrate reductase from Aspergillus niger under anaerobic conditions Aspergillus niger

Aspergillus niger hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine + NADP+ hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine is the first reduced product formed by a two-electron reduction mechanism. Subsequent reduction of hexahydro-1-nitroso-3,5-dinitro-1,3,5-triazine followed by rapid ring cleavage gives methylenedinitramine which in turn decomposes in water to N2O, NH4+ and HCHO ?
