Effect of calcium on the surfactant tolerance of a fluoranthene degrading bacterium

Surfactants are known to increase the apparent aqueous solubility of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and may thus be used to enhance the bioavailability and thereby to stimulate the biodegradation of these hydrophobic compounds. However, surfactants may in some cases reduce or inhibit biodeg...
