Formulation development of crude oil bioremediation by indigeneous bacteria isolated from oily sludge

Enrichment culture technique lead to the discovery of three presumptive TPHdegrading bacteria. Identification and characterization tests using morphological, biochemical and molecular techniques revealed that the bacteria isolates were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (LIMAS 1 PF), Serratia marcescens (UMAS2...
