Date issued/created: Subject and Keywords: Abstract:This review outlines microbial degradation conditions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbonsin aquatic sediments. Microorganisms able to decompose these compounds are discussed. Concentrations of four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in various sediments are presented. Bacteriaand fungi decompose PAH’s in different ways. Eucariota use monooxygenase, cytochrom P-450and epoxide hydrolase to produce trans-dihydrodiols. Biodegradation of PAH’s by procariota isdue to dioxygenase activity. Bacteria transform these compounds to cis-dihydrodiols and thento more polar compounds with fewer aromatic rings in the molecule.
