The biological degradation of di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP; 1) was studied with fungi. An initial DEHP concentration of 40 ppm (40 mg/L) in an aqueous solution was degraded using fungi in the dark for 7 days. Among the 14 strains tested, 9 strains degraded DEHP above 50 %. Further, 3 strains of Fusarium were more effective for degradation of DEHP.
