The yellow compound pyoverdin was isolated from the bacteria Pseudomonas chlororaphis , isolated from mud in Japan. A study of the effects of iron, phosphorus, manganese and zinc on degradation of triphenyltin (TPT) by pyoverdin (20 mg) was carried out in distilled water (30 ml) containing 6 µg l −1 concentration of TPT at 20 °C for 48 or 96 h. The organotins in water were analyzed by gas chromatograph–mass spectrometry in the selected ion mode. The degradation of TPT by pyoverdin decreased with increase of phosphorus at 0–35 mg l −1 and Fe‐EDTA at 0–2 mg l −1 concentrations. Also, degradation of diphenyltin by pyoverdin decreased with increase of Mn‐EDTA at 0–1 mg l −1 and Zn‐EDTA at 0–1 mg l −1 . On the other hand, degradation of TPT by pyoverdin was found to be unaffected by manganese and zinc in water. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
