Microbial degradation of hydrocarbons in the environment
Microbiological Reviews, 1990 The ecology of hydrocarbon degradation by microbial populations in the natural environment is reviewed, emphasizing the physical, chemical, and biological factors that contribute to the biodegradation of petroleum and individual hydrocarbons. Rates of biodegradation depend greatly on the composition, state, and concentration of the oil or hydrocarbons,

Are alkane hydroxylase genes (alkB) relevant to assess petroleum bioremediation processes in chronically polluted coastal sediments? [PDF]
, 2011 The diversity of alkB-related alkane hydroxylase sequences and the relationship between alkB gene expres- sion and the hydrocarbon contamination level have been investigated in the chronically polluted Etang-de-Berre sediments. For this purpose, these

Bioremediation of Diesel Oil Contaminated Soil by a Novel Isolated Potential Oil Degrading Staphylococcus argenteus MG2 Bacteria Using Bio Stimulation Method [PDF]
Nature Environment and Pollution Technology, 2020 The potential oil-degrading isolate Staphylococcus argenteus MG2 was used for bioremediation of oil-contaminated soil. Hydrocarbon degradation by the soil microorganisms was evaluated in a soil experimentally contaminated with diesel oil.
