Biodegradation of phenanthrene by using Sphingobacterium Spiritovoum / Nor Sheela Tamat

Phenanthrene is a low molecular weight of polycylic aromatic hydrocarbons which consist of three fused rings and it was incubated with minimal media and bacteria for about two weeks at 30°C and shaken at 180rpm to determine the degradation rate of phenanthrene by indigenous microbial population.
