Bioremediation of PCB-contaminated marine sediments: From identification of indigenous dehalorespirers to enhancement of microbial reductive dechlorination
Marine sediments are the main accumulation reservoir of organic recalcitrant pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). In the anoxic conditions typical of these sediments, anaerobic bacteria of the phylum Chloroflexi are able to attack these compounds in a process called microbial reducti...
