Microbial Consortium for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Degradation from Petroleum Hydrocarbon Polluted Soils in Rivers State, Nigeria

The study investigated the distribution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) degraders across two different petroleum hydrocarbon-polluted sites in the Niger Delta, Nigeria, and the ability of the reconstituted indigenous consortium to utilize these PAHs. Microorganisms were isolated after sampl...
