Abstract

To clarify the growth mechanisms of Rhodococcus in the alkane phase, we measured oxygen utilization in the alkane phase. The results showed that dissolved oxygen decreased significantly when viable cells were present in the alkane phase. The findings suggested that Rhodococcus strains can grow in alkanes and utilize the resident dissolved oxygen.
