One of the major environmental problems nowadays is petroleum hydrocarbons contamination. Bioremediation is widely used for cleaning ecosystems contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons. This study was carried out to investigate the response of five microalgae strains isolated from different regions in Iran for 1% n-dodecane (DOD) degradation. The results revealed that Leptolyngbya fragilis ISC 108 is the most effective strain to utilize n-DOD as growth substrate under a mixotrophic condition. Currently, there is little information about mechanisms involved in microalgae response against DOD. The activity of antioxidant enzymes and total lipid and carbohydrate contents were observed to be greater in DOD-treated L. fragilis ISC 108. Lower values of lipid peroxidation and H2O2 along with an increase of dry weight and specific growth rate in L. fragilis ISC 108 under DOD treatment shows that at the cellular level this strain is better equipped with an efficient oxygen radical scavenging system. In conclusion, this study proposes that L. fragilis ISC 108 can be considered an ideal candidate for use in bioremediation of DOD contaminated sites.
