Abstract:Microbial degradation of spilled oil is one of the major routes of the natural removal of contaminants from the environment. Biodegradation gradually destroy oil spills by the help of microorganisms. In the present work the indigenous microorganisms from the oil contaminated area were isolated. Contaminant compounds transformed by these isolates through reactions that take place as a part of their metabolic process were studied. The result of the present study showed the bioremediation of hydrocarbon contamina… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
