Our work has focused on the determination of physiological traits that may facilitate in situ degradation of xenobiotic compounds by indigenous microorganisms. For this our interests center on the following questions: What are the ambient conditions in a benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX)-contaminated aquifer? What is the behavior of indigenous bacteria under these conditions? What are the attributes of bacterial strains that are functional under hypoxic conditions? How do these strains compare with other BTEX-degrading strains?
我们的工作重点是确定可能有助于本地微生物对异源生物化合物进行原位降解的生理特性。为此，我们关注以下问题：在受苯、甲苯、乙苯和二甲苯（BTEX）污染的含水层中，环境条件是怎样的？在这些条件下本地细菌的行为如何？在缺氧条件下起作用的细菌菌株有哪些特性？这些菌株与其他BTEX降解菌株相比如何？
