Date issued/created: Subject and Keywords: Abstract:The results of special tests which had been cajTied out with the following bacterial strainsBacillus sp. S2, Bacillus sp. BP, Pseudomonas sp. 141 and Micrococcus sp. R5.4 show that thesestrains are active degraders of petroleum oil hydrocarbons, tolerate high concentrations of thesubstrate and have a high capability for degradation of hydrocarbons. Petroleum oil was degradedin the range from 60 to 90% after the culture was carried out for 9 days. The activity ofdehydrogenases was related to the concentration of the substrate. The gas chromatographyanalysis of residual hydrocarbons in the medium after 9 days of cultivation proved that themain identified petroleum oil components had been metabolized with the yield from 69 to 100%.Apart from the compounds originally present in crude oil no new by-products were detected inthe final medium. The accumulation of shorter chain length hydrocarbons and various newby-products occurred in the case of another tested bacterial strain, designated “B".
