Abstract
⺠Four phenanthrene-degrading strains were isolated from Samborombón Bay (Argentina). ⺠Three of the strains belong to genus Pseudomonas sp. and one to Sphingomonas sp. ⺠The isolated strains degraded phenanthrene with high efficiency. ⺠Some strains produced biosurfactants and showed chemotaxis toward phenanthrene.
