Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the hazardous xenobiotic agents of oil production. One of the methods to eliminate hazardous compounds is bioremediation, which is the most efficient and cost-effective method to eliminate the harmful byproducts of crude petroleum processing. In this study, five pure bacterial isolates were isolated from petroleum-contaminated soil, four of which showed a robust growth on the PAH pyrene, as a sole carbon source. Various methods viz mass spectroscopy, biochemical assays, and 16S RNA sequencing employed to identify the isolates ascertained the consistent identification of Klebsiella oxytoca by all three methods. Scanning electron microscopy and Gram staining further demonstrated the characterization of the K. oxytoca. High-performance liquid chromatography of the culture supernatant of K. oxytoca grown in pyrene containing media showed that the cells started utilizing pyrene from the 6th day onwards and by the 12th day of growth, 70% of the pyrene was completely degraded. A genome search for the genes predicted to be involved in pyrene degradation using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) confirmed their presence in the genome of K. oxytoca. These results suggest that K. oxytoca would be a suitable candidate for removing soil aromatic hydrocarbons.
