| Abstract: | A method allowing the microorganisms growing on substrates with a low water solubility (oil, fuel oil, resins, and asphalthenes) to be isolated and counted was developed. An advantage of the method is its ability to estimate the oil-utilizing activity of each strain visually according to the decolorized zones formed during its growth on oil products. The sizes of these zones indicate which oil-degrading strain is most active. |
