Degradation of poly aromatic fractions of crude oil and detection of catabolic genes in hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria isolated from Agbabu bitumen sediments in Ondo State

Pollution due to release of Poly aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a major environmental issue especially in oil producing communities. This study investigates the polyaromatic hydrocarbon degradation potentials of some bacteria: <em>Campylobacter hominis, Bacillus cereus, Dyadobacter koreensis...
