The many thousands of human-made and other chemical compounds
present in the environment offer a serious challenge to our
btosphere. It is appropriate, therefore, that our response to these
products of human kno- edge and ingenuity should draw on a body of
mtenstve scientific endeavor that is no less impressive.
Bioremediation offers the possibility of harnessing the diversity
of the biosphere to degrade, remove, alter, or otherwise detoxify
these various chemicals. It brings together scientists from a wide
variety of disciplines and backgrounds, such as microbiology,
molecular biology, a- lytical chemistry, and chemical and
environmental engineering, among o- ers. These different fields,
each with its own individual approach, have actively contributed to
the development of bioremediation research tn recent years. The
prmcipal objective of Bioremediation Protocols is to make the
fruits of some of this research available in a different format to
that of the textbook or journal article. It provides a selection of
clearly written laboratory pro- cols presented as stepwise,
easy-to-follow mstructions. In common with p- wous volumes in this
and the companion Methods in Molecular Biology series, an extensive
"Notes" section is provided with each chapter. This contains u- ful
mformation (of a type often not normally included m a research
paper) supplementmg the protocol. Reviews and case studies are also
included to provide a deeper context to the methods chapters.
