Aquatic ecosystems are under increasing stress from global anthropogenic and natural
changes, including climate change, eutrophication, ocean acidification, and pollution. In this …

Soil contamination with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) is widespread throughout the
globe due to the massive production of TPH anthropogenically and its occurrence in the soil …

ABSTRACT A significant portion of oil from the recent Deepwater Horizon (DH) oil spill in the
Gulf of Mexico was transported to the shoreline, where it may have severe ecological and …

The ubiquitous exploitation of petroleum hydrocarbons (HCs) has been accompanied by
accidental spills and chronic pollution in marine ecosystems, including the deep ocean …

Intrinsic biodegradation potential of bacteria from petroleum refinery waste was investigated
through isolation of cultivable strains and their characterization. Pseudomonas and Bacillus …

In this study, 454 pyrosequencing of the 16 S r RNA gene was used to investigate sediment
bacterial community response to contaminant disturbance across six estuaries with differing …

The present study focuses on the remediation of diesel-polluted soil using modified Fenton
treatment coupled with inorganic NPK fertilizer (“Fenton+ NPK”). Studies were carried out in …

The bacterial strain TR3. 2T was isolated from aerobic bioreactor-treated soil from a
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-contaminated site in Salisbury, NC, USA. Strain TR3 …

Traditionally, microbial surveys investigating the effect of chronic anthropogenic pressure
such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminations consider just the alpha and beta …

In aquatic animals, gut microbial communities shift with host development and living
environments. Understanding the mechanism by which the environment impacts the gut …
