Isolation of Surfactant-Resistant Pseudomonads from the Estuarine Surface Microlayer [PDF]

, 2012
Bioremediation efforts often rely on the application of surfactants to enhance hydrocarbon bioavailability. However, synthetic surfactants can sometimes be toxic to degrading microorganisms, thus reducing the clearance rate of the pollutant.
