Metabolite-profiling to assess <italic>in<italic><italic> situ<italic> anaerobic microbial hydrocarbon degradation in diverse environments
(2010)
It is evident that complete mineralization of hydrocarbons and related compounds can occur under anaerobic conditions. A large variety of hydrocarbon classes have been shown to be amenable to decay by enriched microbial ...
ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NITRATE REDUCING/DENITRIFYING BACTERIA FROM TALLGRASS PRAIRIE SOILS
(2012)
This dissertation addresses the long term impact of crude oil/brine (e.g. salt water) spills on biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen in tallgrass prairie soils. The study sites were prairie soils that were accidently ...
ISOTOPIC FRACTIONATION AND ANAEROBIC PHYSIOLOGY OF n-ALKANE DEGRADATION BY BACTERIAL ISOLATES AND MIXED COMMUNITIES
(2011)
In the first chapter, carbon and hydrogen isotope fractionation of n-alkanes was examined in order to compare aliphatic hydrocarbon biodegradation under oxic and anoxic conditions. Desulfoglaeba alkanexedens, a sulfate-reducing ...
