Abstract

The article presents a study which explores the application of microcosm system to evaluate the effects of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) on the community structure of Alphaproteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Acidobacteria in the soil. The bacteria were analyzed through temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE). It was found that LAS concentration significantly influences the development of bacterial community structure.
