PCB-77 biodegradation potential of biosurfactant producing bacterial isolates recovered from contaminated soil

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are persistent organic pollutants widely distributed in the environment and possess deleterious health effects. The main objective of the study was to obtain bacterial isolates from PCB-contaminated soil for enhanced biodegradation of PCB-77. Selective enrichment res...
