Abstract excerpt
Nucleic acid hybridization techniques were used to characterize the sulfate-reducing bacterial communities at seven waste water and two soil sites in Canada. Genomic DNA was obtained from liquid enrichment cultures of samples taken from these nine sites. The liquid enrichment protocol favored growth of the sulfate-reducing bacterial component of the communities at these sites. The genomic DNA preparations were...
