The bioremediation potential of hydrocarbon-contaminated soils from the most northerly inhabited station in the world, Canadian Forces Station - Alert, was assessed. Microbial enueration, by both viable plate counts and direct counts, combined with molecular analysis (polymerase chain reaction and c...
