The Oppenheimer Formula
The Oppenheimer Formula consists of consortiums of naturally occurring communities of aerobic and micro-aerophilic microorganisms (microbes). For enhanced activity related to microbial-substrate contact, only hydrophobic cells are selected. In other words our microbes don't like water - they prefer to travel where the hydrocarbons are located and prefer to stay away from the water.
A highly concentrated proprietary mixture composed of single cells. Its a highly concentrated consortia of bacteria in the Domain Archaea that bioremediate simple and complex hydrocarbons and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
These communities/teams of microbes have the ability to effectively recycle a wide range of compounds and petroleum hydrocarbons by converting them into non-toxic components. Our microbes have been gathered throughout the world from natural soil and water sources and are selected for their affinity for hydrocarbons, both biochemically and physically.

The Oppenheimer Formula has been listed on U.S. EPA National Contingency Plan Product Schedule since 1991. Click here for more information. Our listing can be found on the top of Page 12, Bulletin # B-36.
The Oppenheimer Formula has been listed with the State of Florida Dept. of Environmental Protection since 1998..
Our microbes employ the concept of aerobic co-metabolism, using multiple strains of microorganisms.
In english this means we use a mix of different teams of microbes.
These teams of microbes all work together to accomplish the mission, to seek out, convert and destroy contaminants.
Using our products does not require any special equipment or appliction methods. Click here to see some examples of application methods used in the field.
