Dominant petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria in the Archipelago Sea in South-West Finland (Baltic Sea) belong to different taxonomic groups than hydrocarbon degraders in the oceans

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2013
The natural petroleum hydrocarbon degrading capacity of the Archipelago Sea water in S-W Finland was studied in a microcosm experiment. Pristine and previously oil exposed sites were examined. Bacterial community fingerprinting was performed using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) and samples from selected microcosms were ...

Dodecanol-Modified Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacteria for Oil Spill Remediation: Double Effect on Dispersion and Degradation

ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2015
Effective emulsification of oil in seawater plays an important role in the marine oil spill remediation process. The negative effects of chemical surfactants have necessitated a search for alternative dispersant that are sustainable and environmentally friendly. After modifying with dodecanol, petroleum hydrocarbon degrading bacteria, Bacillus cereus S-

Biosurfactant Production and Hydrocarbon Degradation Activity of Bacteria Isolated from Petroleum Contaminated Soil

Ecology, Environment and Conservation
In this study bacterial strainB4A isolated from petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soil showed potential to produce bio-surfactant in the presence of 2% (v/v) diesel oil as a carbon source. The growth rate was determined using spectrophotometer at 600nm. Identification based on 16S r-RNA sequencing proved B4A isolate as Pantoeadispersa.

Impact of nanoparticles on transcriptional regulation of catabolic genes of petroleum hydrocarbon‐degrading bacteria in contaminated soil microcosms

Journal of Basic Microbiology, 2018
This study was conducted to determine what effects nanoparticles (NPs) like TiO2, ZnO, and Ag may pose on natural attenuation processes of petroleum hydrocarbons in contaminated soils. The solid NPs used were identified using x‐ray diffraction technique and their average size was certified as 18.2, 16.9, and 18.3 nm for Ag‐NPs, ZnO‐NPs, and TiO2‐NPs ...

Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degrading Potentials Of Indigenous Bacteria Strains from “Blackwater” Ecosystem Of Eniong River – Nigeria

World Journal of Applied Science & Technology, 2022
Crude oil degradation by bacteria from sediments of blackwater ecosystem of Enoing River, Itu, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria was investigated using standard microbiological and analytical protocols. Enrichment of sediment sample in mineral salt medium spiked within 2% and 1% percent crude oil resulted in Darwinian selection of 2.0 x 103 cfu/ml and 1.4 x 104

Enrichment and characterization of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from petroleum refinery waste as potent bioaugmentation agent for in situ bioremediation

Bioresource Technology, 2017
Intrinsic biodegradation potential of bacteria from petroleum refinery waste was investigated through isolation of cultivable strains and their characterization. Pseudomonas and Bacillus spp. populated the normal cultivable taxa while prolonged enrichment with hydrocarbons and crude oil yielded hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria of genera Burkholderia ...

Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degradation Potential of Biosurfactant extracted from Bacteria isolated from Oil Contaminated Sites

Research Journal of Chemistry and Environment
Petroleum hydrocarbons are widely used in day-to-day life and pollution caused by them affects the environmental health, as it can readily alter/ disturb the fragile nature of the terrestrial and marine ecosystem and human health. Bacterial biosurfactants enhance the bioavailability of hydrophobic substances and thereby increase the rate of ...

Isolation, biodegradation ability and molecular detection of hydrocarbon degrading bacteria in petroleum samples from a Brazilian offshore basin

Organic Geochemistry, 2009
Abstract The detection of microorganisms with potential for biodeterioration and biodegradation in petroleum fields is of great relevance, since these organisms may be related to a decrease in petroleum quality in the reservoirs or damage in the production facilities.
