Study of nitrifying bacteria diversity on biofilms using a molecular approach

The purpose of this work was to investigate the microbial community structure of nitrifying biofilms. Biofilm samples were collected from two reactors operated with distinct retention times. The composition and spatial distribution of nitrifying consortia in biofilms was quantified by fluorescence i...
