Enumeration of petroleum-degrading microorganisms.
A variety of factors, including concentration of oil, antibiotics, dyes, and inoculum washes, were examined to determine their effect on the total counts of microorganisms on oil-containing media. The media found to be best for enumerating petroleum-degrading microorganisms contained 0.5% (vol/vol) oil and 0.003% phenol red, with Fungizone added for isolating bacteria and streptomycin and tetra...
متن کاملArbuscular mycorrhiza and petroleum-degrading microorganisms enhance phytoremediation of petroleum-contaminated soil.
While plants can phytoremediate soils that are contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons, adding microbes to remediate contaminated sites with petroleum-degrading microorganisms and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) is not well understood. The phytoremediation of Arabian medium crude oil (ACO) was done with a Lolium multiflorum system inoculated with an AMF (Glomus intraradices) and a mixture o...
متن کاملIsolation and identification of petroleum hydrocarbon degrading microorganisms from oil contaminated environment
Oil contaminated soil, sea water and sediment samples were collected from old oil jetty of Paradip port, Orissa. These samples were screened for bacterial oil degradation using 0.5% diesel in Bushnell-Hass Mineral Salt medium. Samples were incubated separately in shaking orbital incubator at 37 0 C at 125rpm up to 15days. The level of petroleum hydrocarbon degradation was determined by gravimet...
متن کاملAgar plate method for detection and enumeration of alkylbenzenesulfonate-degrading microorganisms.
A simple method for detection and enumeration of alkylbenzenesulfonate (ABS)-degrading microorganisms by using agar plates was developed and used in microbiological studies of coastal marine and polluted river waters. The method depends upon the color responses of neutral red in alkaline medium. Neutral red changes from pink, when it enters into ABS micelles, to yellow, when the ABS is degraded...
متن کاملPetroleum-Degrading Enzymes: Bioremediation and New Prospects
Anthropogenic forces, such as petroleum spills and the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, have caused an accumulation of petroleum hydrocarbons in the environment. The accumulation of petroleum and its derivatives now constitutes an important environmental problem. Biocatalysis introduces new ways to improve the development of bioremediation strategies. The recent application of molecular t...
