Ecophysiology of syntrophic communities that degrade saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids

Syntrophic relationships are the key for biodegradation in methanogenic environments. We review the ecological and physiological features of syntrophic communities involved in the degradation of saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids (LCFA), as well as their potential application to conver...
