This chapter focuses on microbial ecology of soil biofilms. Xenobiotic bioavailability at soil surfaces and within biofilms is a dynamic property and is determined by the properties of the soil, the organic in question, and the composition and activities of the microbial community. The period for which the soil has been exposed to the contaminant and the horizon in which the xenobiotic or its metabolites are located are important factors to consider in any clean-up program. Traditional methods for accelerating pollutant transformations in soil have had only mixed success and both stimulation of the indigenous population and augmentation with novel bacteria or fungi often fail. However, newer molecular techniques for assessing the genotypic ...
