hexadecane-degradation by teskumurella and stenotrophomonas strains isolated from hydrocarbon contaminated soils
background petroleum hydrocarbons are mix compounds and divided into four groups: saturates, aromatics, resins and asphalten. among various phases of crude-oil, the alkanes with medium length chain are favorable substrates that rapidly degraded, although short-chain alkanes are very toxic and long-chain alkanes have low solubility in water that reduce its bioavailability and make resistant to b...
متن کاملNovel Bacterial Strains Pseudomonas sp. and Bacillus sp. Isolated from Petroleum Oil Contaminated Soils for Degradation of Flourene and Phenanthrene
Flourene and phenanthrene are organic compounds with high hydrophobicity and toxicity. Being recalcitrant in nature they are accumulating in the environment at an alarming concentration, posing serious threat to living beings. Thus in the present study, microorganisms were screened for their ability to degrade these contaminants at high concentrations in least period of time. Two out of fifteen...

متن کاملAerobic Degradation of 3-Chlorobenzoic Acid by Bacterial Strains Isolated from Petroleum Polluted Soils
Five bacterial isolates were isolated from soils polluted with petroleum waste deposition from Cairo Oil Refining Company, Al-Qalyubia, Egypt. These isolates were grown on five concentrations (20, 100, 500, 1000, 2000μM) of 3-chlorobenzoic acid (3-CBA) as a sole carbon and energy source. The abilities of these isolates to degrade this chloroaromatic compounds have been investigated. The growth ...
متن کاملDegradation of predigested distillery effluent by isolated bacterial strains.
Batch studies were conducted on degradation of anaerobically digested distillery wastewater by three bacterial strains, viz. Xanthomonas fragariae, Bacillus megaterium and Bacillus cereus in free and immobilized form, isolated from the activated sludge of a distillery wastewater treatment plant. The removal of COD and colour with all the three strains increased with time up to 48 hr and only ma...
