Novel strains of isolated and purified bacteria have been identified which have the ability to degrade petroleum hydrocarbons including a variety of PAHs. Several isolates also exhibit the ability to produce a biosurfactant. The combination of the biosurfactant-producing ability along with the ability to degrade PAHs enhances the efficiency with which PAHs may be degraded. Additionally, the biosurfactant also provides an additional ability to bind heavy metal ions for removal from a soil or aquatic environment.

Plusieurs isolats ont également la capacité de produire un biosurfactant. La combinaison de la capacité de production d'un surfactant et de la capacité de dégradation des HAP améliore l'efficacité avec laquelle les HAP peuvent être dégradés. Le biosurfactant offre en outre une capacité supplémentaire de liaison de ions métalliques lourds destinés à être éliminés d'un environnement édaphique ou aquatique.
