NSP contained a total of 14 μg ml−1 phenanthrene in MSM. HASP contained a total of 14 μg ml−1 phenanthrene in MSM with 2% (wt/vol) humic acid.
% 14C, percentage of total added 14C recovered in the indicated fraction. For HASP isolates, values are means from four replicates ± standard deviations. For all other isolates, values are means from duplicated tests ± standard deviations. Some NSP tests had poor mass balances (<70%); these were excluded from the table, and results from the single remaining test are presented without a standard deviation. All NSP percent CO2 means were significantly different from the abiotic control (Dunnett's method; α = 0.05). None of the HASP percent CO2 means were significantly different from the abiotic control (Dunnett's method; α = 0.05). Asterisks indicate that NSP percent CO2 means were significantly different from those for the abiotic control (Dunnett's method; α = 0.05). Percent CO2 means in NSP and HASP cultures were not significantly different (Wilcoxon rank sum test; α = 0.05).
See Table 1 for further information on strain identities. Strains listed in Table 1 but not included in the above data set because of inactive inocula were Cs1-5, MC3, Ps1, Es2-1, 12H6, As2-1, Es2-5, and Xan. Abiotic, noninoculated controls of NSP and HASP cultures.
“Outside” indicates an isolate acquired from an outside source. NA, not applicable.
