This study aims to determine the best ratio of oil / water and concentration of resting cells and determine the time course of resting cells bacteria isolates SBJ8 to be known the biodesulfurization capability in two-phase media using media mineral salt sulfur free-tetradecane(MSSF-TD). Oil/water ratio used in this study is 1 : 1 , 1 : 2 and 1 : 4 in combination with cell concentration by OD66010, 20, and 30. The study was conducted using 200 mg · l–1dibenzothiophene as a source of sulfur dissolved in tetradecane as a model of petroleum (oil phase). Isolates were incubated for 24 hours at 37°C and the residue analyzed by gass cromathography mass selective (GC-MS). Testing the degradation of resting cells is accomplished by two replications. The results showed that the ratio of oil water 1 : 4 by and cellconcentration OD66030 shows the results of the highest degradation of 84.84% and the time course of 24 hours resting cells show degradation rate dibenzothiophene up to 81.84%.
