Abstract

The State of Quintana Roo, in southeast of México, has important tourist attraction facilities, including underwater sinkholes popular among swimmers and divers. However, carcinogenic hydrocarbons were recently detected. The aim of this work was to demonstrate that biotechnology could represent an alternative to solve this problem; civil participation through the retrojection method could provide an alternative type of prevention.
