Microbial community dynamics in replicate membrane bioreactors--natural reproducible fluctuations.

Abstract excerpt

We operated 4 replicate membrane bioreactors (MBRs) in parallel to test if an acclimated seed inoculum would evolve similarly following even distribution into replicates. A cloning and sequencing library of 16S rRNA genes was obtained from the seed inoculum complemented with terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP; n=18 per reactor) analysis over the study period (n=113 d) that targeted the 16S...
