First evidence of extracellular enzymatic degradation of benzo(a)pyrene by the phytoplankton species Selenastrum capricornutum and the influence of temperature
Microbial degradation of pollutants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is carried out by bacteria, fungi and microalgae. The degradation pathways have been fully elucidated for bacteria and fungi, but only partially for microalgae. The early PAH emergent metabolites formed by microalgae...
