| Abstract | ||
| Cultivale fungi were isolated from oily contaminated sites have revealed four fungal species which include :Aspergillus niger,Aspergillus terrus,Aspergillus flavus and penicillum sp .that utilize gasoline as asole carbon source and energy.the aim of the study was to determine the capacity of these fungi to degrade TPH.that changes in PH value,viable counts,optical density at 600nm and dry weights produced by fungal isolate during utilization of gasoline of the zero time to14 day. That fungal isolates showed positive correlation between viable counts and dry weights during incubation period .Hence dry weights increased with a concomitant increase in viable counts .there was also high negative correlation between dry weight and pH values ,the increasing in accompanied with decreasing of environmental pH. | ||
