• Current State of Knowledge in Microbial Degradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs): A Review (2016, background): “…utilizes and manipulates the detoxification abilities of living organisms to convert hazardous organic wastes including xenobiotics into harmless products, often carbon dioxide and water (Cerniglia and Heitkamp, 1989; Mueller et al., 1996; Bamforth and Singleton, 2005; Johnsen et al., 2005).”
• Production and Roles of Biosurfactants and Bioemulsifiers in Accessing Hydrophobic Substrates. (2010, background): “…example the environment or matrix (e.g., water, soil, sediment, organic matter, etc.), the kinetic parameters (e.g., diffusion and flow rate, mass transfer, spatial separation between cells and substrate, etc.) as well as the intrinsic physiological properties of the cells (Johnsen et al., 2005).”
• Degradation of hydrocarbons and biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas sp. strain LP1 (2009, background): “Conflicting results have been reported concerning the effect of surfactants/emulsifiers on biodegradation of hydrocarbons (Foght and Westlake 1988; Zhang and Miller 1992; Rosenberg and Ron 1997; Johnsen et al. 2005).”
• Organic matter–microorganism–plant in soil bioremediation: a synergic approach (2013, background): “It has been shown that organisms such as bacteria, earthworms, or plants can access these supposedly unavailable fractions by ‘‘facilitated desorption processes’’ (Park et al. 2001; Stokes et al. 2006) or diffusion back out of the micropore (Johnsen et al. 2005).”
• Bacterial-Fungal Interactions: Hyphens between Agricultural, Clinical, Environmental, and Food Microbiologists (2011, background): “The microbial degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has significant potential for use in bioremediation (67, 181).”
• Untapped potential: exploiting fungi in bioremediation of hazardous chemicals (2011, background): “PAHs are good substrates from an energetic perspective, and low-molecular-mass PAHs are readily used by bacteri”
• Microbial biodegradation of polyaromatic hydrocarbons. (2008, background): “Consequently, it appears that attachment to and biofilm formation on PAH sources is a widespread mechanism among bacteria to overcome mass-transfer limitations when growing on weakly soluble and strongly sorbed PAHs (Johnsena et al., 2005).”
• Bioremediation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAHs): A Perspective (2016, neutral): “PAHs are produced as a result of incomplete combustion of organic compound at high temperature (500-800°C) to low temperature (100-300°C) for long duration [25].”
