Abstract EN
Soil contamination with petroleum hydrocarbon products such as diesel and engine oil is becoming one of the major environmental problems.
This study describes hydrocarbons degrading bacteria (PHAD) isolated from long-standing petrol polluted soil from the eastern region, Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
The isolated strains were firstly categorized by accessible shape detection, physiological and biochemistry tests.
Thereafter, a technique established on the sequence analysis of a 16S rDNA gene was used.
Isolation of DNA from the bacterial strains was performed, on which the PCR reaction was carried out.
Strains were identified based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis, As follows amplified samples were spontaneously sequenced automatically and the attained results were matched to open databases.
Among the isolated bacterial strains, S1 was identified as Staphylococcus aureus and strain S1 as Corynebacterium amycolatum.
