Abstract excerpt
The aim of this research was to determine the effectiveness of a strategy for constructing microbial consortia for treating chemically mixed industrial effluent, based on a more thorough understanding of communities within waste metal-working fluids (MWFs). Complementary phenotypic and genotypic methods revealed that the microbial communities in spent MWFs had low diversity and were very similar in species...
