Abstract
⺠Acute and chronic toxicity of compounds involved in BDS studies was evaluated. ⺠IC50 values obtained for some hydrocarbons showed high toxicity levels. ⺠The sensitivity/resistance ability to 2-HBP is related with the bacterial growth rate. ⺠Microorganisms exhibiting faster generation times could be more resistant to 2-HBP. ⺠The response of both strains to 2-HBP supports their potential to be used for BDS.
