Xenobiotic compounds are synthetic compounds commonly used in industries like dye industries, pharmaceutical industries, pesticides manufacturing, explosives, and other industrial chemicals. These compounds have been released into our ecosystem due to anthropogenic activities and improper waste disposal and cause consequential damage due to their lethal nature. A massive number of enzymes from plants and microorganisms have been reportedly involved in the biodegradation of toxic organic contaminants. Bioremediation is an economical and sustainable part of biotechnology that is dependent on microbial enzymes. Research in this topic would contribute towards the development of advanced bioprocess technology for the reduction of the toxicity of the pollutants and also to acquire beneficiary novel compounds.
