What is Biodegradation of Hydrocarbons by Pseudomonas about?

This document discusses a study on the biodegradation of petroleum and the hydrocarbon eicosane by the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The study found that P. aeruginosa had the ability to degrade both petroleum and eicosane substrates. Biodegradation capacity was measured quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitatively, the percentage of bacterial cell mass on hydrocarbon substrates increased over time, reaching over 80% for petroleum and 85% for eicosane. Qualitatively, gas chromatography showed the br
