Marinobacter nanhaiticus explained

Marinobacter nanhaiticus is a Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic and slightly halophilic bacterium from the genus of Marinobacter which has been isolated from sediments from the South China Sea.^[1] Marinobacter nanhaiticus has the ability to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.^{[1] [2]}
