Biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons by bioflocculant-producing microorganisms of the aquatic ecosystems in the Arctic region
Abstract Currently it is not feasible to completely eliminate the contamination of water bodies with oil, which makes it relevant to perform activities aimed at addressing this environmental challenge. Biological method of cleaning water could be recognized as an effective means of environmental pro...

Abstract Currently it is not feasible to completely eliminate the contamination of water bodies with oil, which makes it relevant to perform activities aimed at addressing this environmental challenge. Biological method of cleaning water could be recognized as an effective means of environmental protection. Increasingly, bioremediation uses indigenous microorganisms of specific contamination sites, since these organisms are adapted to the prevailing climatic and environmental conditions, which confers the advantages. Consequently, studies aimed at isolation and selection of the most active microorganisms oxidizing petroleum hydrocarbons and capable of using them are particularly relevant. The aim of this study is the search and selection of effective microorganisms-degraders of petroleum, maximally adapted to the conditions of the Far North. In this study, hydrocarbon-oxidizing features of indigenous bacteria in the Arctic region were examined, and the most effective strains for devising the bioremediation agents were selected.
