Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by pure strains and by defined strain associations: inhibition phenomena and cometabolism
TL;DR: Six bacterial strains capable of using, as sole carbon and energy source, at least one of the following polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, naphthalene, fluorene, phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene and pyrene, were isolated and strain associations were found efficient in relieving inhibition phenomena, including the toxic effect of naphhalene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity of bacterial strains degrading hexadecane in relation to the mode of substrate uptake.
TL;DR: The relative distribution of the modes of hydrocarbon uptake, used by bacteria of the environment for the degradation of long chain alkanes, has been evaluated and suggested the existence of two distinct alkane transfer mechanisms in this group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and production of a rhamnolipidic biosurfactant by a Pseudomonas species
TL;DR: A physiological role for rhamnolipid as a means to enhance PAH availability in a mutualistic PAH-degrading bacterial community is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial degradation and fate in the environment of methyl tert-butyl ether and related fuel oxygenates.
TL;DR: Developments in microbiology make biological treatment of water contaminated with MTBE and other oxygenates an attractive possibility and the development of in situ treatment processes is a promisinggoal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gasoline and Diesel Oil Biodegradation
TL;DR: In this paper, the intrinsic biodegradability of fuels such as gasoline or diesel oil was determined by using a reference aerobic microflora taken from an urban waste water treatment plant.
