Diauxic Effect of Biostimulant on Crude Oil Polluted Soil

The book "Diauxic Effect of Biostimulant on Crude Oil Polluted Soil" by Senyene Umana offers a comprehensive investigation into the interactions between microorganisms and contaminated soils, particularly regarding the bioremediation of oil pollution. It demonstrates that microbes capable of degrading hydrocarbons are widespread in contaminated ecosystems and can adapt to various materials that serve as primary environmental sorbents for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and hydrophobic hydrocarbons. The study highlights the previously underexplored combination of biostimulation and bioaugmentation to enhance remediation in soils contaminated by crude oil and examines the diauxic effect of biostimulants as well as the influence of bacterial colonization on the degradation of hydrocarbons in garden soils.
