FIELD: technical microbiology, ecology. SUBSTANCE: invention proposes the strain of yeast Hansenulla californica NT VKPM Y-2284 designated for decomposition of polychlorinated biphenyls and detoxication of environment objects. Strain is grown in media containing sources of carbon, nitrogen and mineral salts. Strain is cultured by submerged method to titer value 5.0 x 106 - 1.0 x 107 cells/cm3 and obtained biomass in concentration 106-105 cells/cm3 is used for decomposition of polychlorinated biphenyls. Strain provides decrease of polychlorinated biphenyls content in soil and water by 30-50%. EFFECT: strain indicated above, enhanced effectiveness of yeast strain. 3 tbl, 4 ex
