Characterization of Bacteria Degrading Petroleum Derivatives Isolated from Contaminated Soil and Water

Screening of diesel oil degrading bacteria from petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soil

Four bacterial strains were isolated from diesel contaminated soil in TVS oil depot, Trichy, Tamil Nadu. From the soil sample four morphologically different bacterial species were isolated and the active strains were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. putida, Arthobacter sp and Bacillus sp. The diesel degrading efficiency of isolated organisms was tested in BH medium supplemented with diesel and DCPIP ...

Isolation and Characterization of Diazinon Degrading Bacteria from Contaminated Agriculture Soils

Background: Organic agricultural pesticides are so stable in ecosystems and biosphere. These compounds affect soil conditions and agricultural products. The aim of this study was isolation of diazinon-degrading bacteria from Kerman pistachio orchards, Southeastern Iran. Methods: Diazinon-degrading bacteria were enriched in Bushnell-Hass medium. Identification and sequencing of prevalent degr...

Bioremediation of Crude Oil Contaminated Soil by Petroleum-Degrading Active Bacteria

Approximatelly 0.6 million tons of petroleum is poured into soil, groundwater, rivers and oceans every year in China. A large amount of the oil contaminated soil has not been remediated. The contaminated soil poses a severe threat to the environment and must be taken care of. Bioremediation has become one of the most popular and promising technologies with growing demand for the remediation of ...
