Biofilm formation on octocrylene droplet in the enrichment culture. a Chemical structure of octocrylene. b Observation of biofilms on octocrylene droplets in the enrichment culture of landfill site samples after two transfers. The incubation temperature was 30 °C. Red arrow: biofilm on the octocrylene droplets swimming in the medium; blue arrow: biofilm on octocrylene on the medium surface. Scale represents 1 cm. c Diversity analysis of the enrichment culture using DGGE. Used primers: 314 F and 907 R. DGGE was performed at 100 V for 17 h.
