They were resistant to heavy metals such as lead, iron, zinc, cobalt and mercury. The optimum pH for hydrocarbon degradation by Flavobacterium spp.1 was 9. Flavobacterium spp.2, Pseudomonas spp.1 & 2 have shown optimum pH 7 for their degradation. The optimum temperature for hydrocarbon degradation by Flavobacterium spp.1 & 2 and Pseudomonas spp.1 & 2 were at 40°C & 45°C .展开更多
