โœฆ Synopsis

The use of a two-step microcolumn of silica gel and aluminium oxide for the fractionation of crude oil spills is described. The 34 and %-ring polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon fractions were used to identify eleven crude oils according to their areas of origin and individually. Fractionation by thin-layer chromatography was _ also studied and the results are compared with those obtained on the microcolumn.

Several exciting findings about the biodegradation of hydrocarbons have come to light over the past year. The most significant developments include the discovery of anaerobic hydrocarbon metabolism, the isolation of 4-or 5-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon utilizers, the finding that aromatic and

On December 6, 198 1 an oil spill of 160 barrels (25 440 liters) occurred in a small southeast Texas stream. Water quality changes, other than the presence of oil, were not evident until six months later when water temperature increased and stream flow ceased. This resulted in decreased dissolved ox
