“…Several studies on biological agents for reducing oil pollution have been reported, including Staphylococcus pasteuri, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus (Kanmani et al 2015;Lauprasert et al 2017;Saranya et al 2019). Other studies on the ability of the biological agents to degrade hydrocarbon pollutants have also been reported, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas sp, Bacillus sp (Retnaningrum and Wilopo 2017;Xia et al 2019;Sari and Retnaningrum 2019;Benget and Retnaningrum 2020). Bacterial isolates such as Pseudomonas sp, Rhodococcus sp, and Comamonas sp have been investigated for their potential in reducing plastics pollution (Urbanek et al 2018;Danso et al 2019), while Pseudomonas fluorescens can reduce pollutant pesticides (Wang et al 2018).…”
