Twenty five yeasts isolated were isolated from Khurais oil field in Saudi Arabia and assayed
to evaluate their biodegradability. Only five isolates (namely, A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5) showed …

Saudi Arabia heavily depends on oil production, as 33.42% of GDP is generated from the oil
sector (Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency, 2019). Due to previous fact, microorganism …

Among six crude oil-degrading yeasts that were isolated from an oil-polluted area in the
Persian Gulf, two yeast strains showed high degradation activity of aliphatic hydrocarbons …

Among oil-degrading microorganisms isolated from oil-polluted industrial areas, one yeast
strain showed high degradation activity of aliphatic hydrocarbons. From the analyses of 18S …

Bioremediation using yeasts is an alternative way to minimize the effects of oil spillage on
soil. This paper aims to establish a bioremediation protocol involving the optimization of …

A local yeast isolate named A was isolated from polluted area of Abou-Qir gulf (Alexandria,
Egypt), identified according to a partial sequence of 18sRNA as Candida tropicalis. The …

Because microbial degradation is known to be an efficient process in the in situ
decontamination of oil-bearing environments, it is believed that development of effective …

Two yeast strains are enriched and isolated from industrial refinery wastewater. These
strains were observed for their ability to utilize several classes of petroleum hydrocarbons …

In the present study, 120 yeast isolates from different sources (active sludge, soil, and
wastewater samples obtained from petroleum refinery and soil contaminated by petroleum) …

Crude oil (petroleum) is a naturally occurring complex composed of hydrocarbon deposits
and other organic materials. Bioremediation of crude oil-polluted sites is restricted by the …
