Research Abstract |
We developed a method to enrich microbial cells after CARD-FISH. Effects of solvents to microbial community were also investigated. Microbial community of a phenol-degrading anaerobic reactor was analyzed. Specific FISH probes were designed and applied to decipher spatial distribution of major microorganisms involved in phenol degradation.
