Characterization of<i>Stenotrophomonas acidaminiphila</i>NCW-702 biofilm for implication in the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

The study provides a constructive application of bacterial biofilms for the bioremediation of hydrophobic organic contaminants. The biofilm mode remediation process has the advantage of reusability of bacterial biomass and is also a low cost process as compared to cell immobilization techniques.
