  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Microorganisms indigenous to surface soils and aquifer materials collected at a munitions-contaminated site transformed 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), and 2,6-dinitrotoluene (2,6-DNT) to amino-nitro intermediates within 20 to 70 days. Carbon mineralization studies with both unlabeled (TNT, 2,4-DNT, and 2,6-DNT) and radiolabeled ([&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;14&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span&gt;C]TNT) substrates indicated that a significant fraction of these source compounds was degraded to CO&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
