Abstract

Solid hydrocarbon utilizing bacterial isolates were screened and the strains were examined for biomass production, growth on different solid hydrocarbons, protein contents, and amino acid composition. Conversion rate of solid hydrocarbon to biomass was 40–100 per cent depending on the substrate used. Linear growth curves were obtained in all cases.
