OBJECTIVES
• To evaluate the biodegradation extent of Prestige fuel oil in vitro experiments times by two consortia.– Aliphatics, aromatics and molecular markers.
• Effect of biodegradation on: – source and weathering indices
• To assess weathering effects on biodegradation.• To evaluate the effect of oleophilic nutrients.

• N-alkanes, alkylbenzenes low MW parent PAHs and mono and di-alkylated derivatives are degraded by both consortia in 20-40 days incubation.
• Degradation rates of PAHs decrease according with the alkyl substitution and number aromatic rings.
• Weathering slow down biodegradation.• Oleophilic nutrient enhance the biodegradation of the more
refractory PAHs and some molecular markers.• Source indicators can be modified when oleophilic nutrient
are added to the incubation medium.
