Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) cause enormous environmental hazards that threaten human health. Bacterial degradation of PAHs has been extensively studied. Bacteria enhanced their biodegradability through multiple levels of regulatory analysis and adaptive evolution to produce diverse catabolic pathways. Based on recent developments, we address here the research progress in bioremediation technology to degrade low molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
具有“三致”效应的多环芳烃污染造成了巨大的环境危害，威胁人类健康和生存。目前能够降解低分子量多环芳烃的细菌已有广泛的研究。细菌通过多层次的调控分析和适应性进化提高它们的降解能力。本文基于国内外文献调研，简要总结了生物修复在低分子量多环芳烃降解领域的研究进展。拟通过多层次的调控分析和适应性进化来产生多种分解代谢途径，为生物降解能力强化的未来降解技术提供支撑。.
