Enrichment versus biofilm culture: a functional and phylogenetic comparison of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading microbial communities.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Mar 2002

Stach James E M, Burns Richard G

Abstract excerpt

The effect that culture methods have on the diversity of degradative microbial communities is not well understood. We compared conventional batch enrichment with a biofilm culture method for the isolation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-degrading microbial communities from a PAH-contaminated soil. The two methods were assessed by comparing: (i) the diversity of culturable bacteria; (ii) the diversity of...
