Abstract excerpt
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-degrading bacteria isolated from PAH-contaminated soils were analyzed genotypically and phenotypically for their capacity for metabolism of naphthalene and other PAH substrates. The methods used for the analyses were DNA hybridization using NAH7-derived gene probes, PAH spray plate assays, 14C-PAH mineralization assays, and dioxygenase activity assays. The results of the...
