Biodegradation of Dispersed Oil in Arctic Seawater at -1°C
As offshore oil and gas exploration expands in the Arctic, it is important to expand the scientific understanding of arctic ecology and environmental impact to mitigate operational risks. Understanding the fate of oil in arctic seawater is a key factor for consideration. Here we report the chemical loss due to the biodegradation of Alaska North Slope (ANS) crude oil that would occur in the wate...
متن کاملPolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon biodegradation rates: a structure-based study.
This study was designed to examine the role of molecular structure in determining the biodegradation rates of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Laboratory experiments were performed in aqueous systems, and data were analyzed in a manner that allowed determination of first-order biodegradation rates independent of bioavailability limitations from physical-chemical processes. An aerobic mi...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Aerobic Mixed Bacterial Culture Isolated from Hydrocarbon Polluted Soils
In this study, the degradation potential of five polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by aerobic mixed bacterial cultures was investigated. Microorganisms were isolated from hydrocarbon contaminated soils of Shadegan wetland located in southwest of Iran. The degradation experiments were conducted in liquid cultures. PAH or PAHs concentration was 100 mg/L at the beginning of degradation e...
متن کاملSensitive and accurate methodology for measuring the kinetics of concentration-dependent hydrocarbon metabolism rates in seawater by microbial communities.
A method having sufficient sensitivity to resolve the kinetic constants for dissolved nonpolar substrate metabolism, together with the related rate constants in natural waters, is presented. The method is based on the rate of CO(2) recovery from radioactive dissolved substrate. Sensitivity is enhanced by using large seawater volumes, high-specific-activity isotopes, and by reducing background r...
متن کاملStructure of bacterial communities along a hydrocarbon contamination gradient in a coastal sediment.
The bacterial diversity of a chronically oil-polluted retention basin sediment located in the Berre lagoon (Etang-de-Berre, France) was investigated. This study combines chemical and molecular approaches in order to define how the in situ petroleum hydrocarbon contamination level affects the bacterial community structure of a subsurface sediment. Hydrocarbon content analysis clearly revealed a ...
