Abstract:Octylphenol polyethoxylates (OPEs) constitute a class of non-ionic surfactants extensively employed in various industrial applications. However, concerns have arisen regarding the potential environmental and human health impacts of OPEs because of their widespread use and persistence in aquatic environments. Bioremediation of OPE in the environment using OPE-degrading bacterium is appealing as bacterial metabolism converts OPE to harmless carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. In this study, various secondary… Show more
