| Abstract | BIOSIS COPYRIGHT: BIOL ABS. The well-characterized Alberta Sweet Mixed Blend oil and several other oils which are commonly transported in Canada were physically weathered and then incubated with a defined microbial inoculum. The purpose was to produce quantitative data on oil components and component groups which are more susceptible or resistant to biodegradation, and to determine how oils rank in relation to each other in terms of biodegradation potential. The biodegraded oils were characterized by quantitative determination of changes in important hydrocarbon groups including the total petroleum hydrocarbons, total saturates and aromatics, and also by quantitation of more than 100 individual target aliphatic, aromatic and biomarker components. The study reveals a pattern of distinct oil composition changes due to biodegradation. which is significantly different from the pattern due to physical or short-term weathering. It is important to be able to distinguish between these two forms of loss, s |
