Screening the Toxicity and Biodegradability of Petroleum Hydrocarbons by a Rapid Colorimetric Method

Crude oil and petroleum products have a wide variety of hazardous components with high toxicity and low biodegradability. Certain dyes change their colors by intercepting electron transfer reactions during the transformation processes. This study applied resazurin and 2,6-dichlorophenol-indophenol i...
