Protocol for Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria: Pasteurized Chevron gasoline No 2 <br /> and diesel were dissolved into agar plates as the sole carbon and energy source for the <br /> growth of aerobic hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria Sterile agar plates (100x 15 mm) <br /> were prepared with minimal salts medium at pH 6 8 with agar and hydrocarbons, without <br /> any other carbon sources or nutrients added Triplicate plates were inoculated with 10 <br /> ml of each sample (log dilution 100) or log dilutions of each sample at 10`1, 10Z, and 10-3 <br /> Hydrocarbon plates were counted after 5 days incubation at 30 degrees Celsius The <br /> plate count data is reported as colony forming units (cfu)per milliliter (ml) Each <br /> enumeration value represents a statistical average of the plate count data obtained from <br /> two of the four inoculating log dilutions assayed <br /> Protocol for Total Heterotrophic Bacteria: Sterile agar plates (100 x 15 mm) were <br /> prepared with minimal salts and 2 35% heterotrophic plate count agar at pH 6 8 without <br /> any other carbon source or nutrients added Triplicate plates were inoculated with 1 0 ml <br /> of each sample at log dilutions 10'r, 10`2, and 10-3 and 104 The heterotrophic plates <br /> were counted after 5 days of incubation at 30 Deg C The plate count data is reported as <br /> colony forming units (cf i) per milliliter (ml) of sample Each enumeration value <br /> represents a statistical average of two of the four inoculating log dilutions assayed <br />
